[I]"Beep boop, son. Beep boop."[/I][B]
Protocol:[/B]
Unlike the [URL="http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1457207"]Artificial Intelligence Thread[/URL], which is all about real robots and AI and whatnot, [I]this[/I] thread is all about the appreciation for all the robots in works of fiction such as movies, TV shows, video games, and even books. Or even if they're not from any of those, that's fine so long as they don't exist.
And I guess through various loopholes fictional AIs would count as well since they inhabit computers and stuff... whatever. Let's count them as robots too just to not be exclusive.
[B]The Three Rules of Robotics:[/B]
1. This is a thread strictly for fictional robots. Please take all discussions on real robots to the thread I linked in the opening statement.
2. If you're gonna post something you wouldn't want mom seeing, link it as NSFW. This rule especially falls under any discussion of "solicitation" robots.
3. OC is most welcome. Again, mark it as NSFW if you're gonna go there.
Crime fighters, unstoppable killing machines, domestic servants, bending units, wisecracking sidekicks, etc. Whatever short circuits your boat, all are welcome.

So is this meant to be like the dragon thread but with made-up robots and less sexual connotation? If so, this could be nifty.

[I]Definitely[/I] less sexual connotations. I wanna make this an all-access thread for the whole nerdy family.
robots are fucking radical
especially legion

I'm personally a fan of the Pilgrim 7000 series of robots from Automata.

A clean, simplistic design that screams "This is the kind of thing they would've made in the 80's if they had the tech".
PLEASE SEXUALIZE THE ROBOTS

CIS droids were always amongst my favorites.

I always felt like a battle droid could make a good companion. Like, I imagine some smuggler salvaging one off a Clone Wars battlefield, removing the CIS programming, and just having him serve as his partner in crime. And after seeing The Clone Wars, I think they could have an amusing personality develop if let be (did the show ever explore their quirks of character, BTW?)
I mean, they wouldn't be anywhere close to, say, HK-47, but those guys always seemed pretty nifty to me.

The robots in Elysium were pretty cool.
[QUOTE=Excalibuurr;47441738]Speaking of which, how is Automata anyways? The robots look cool, but I'm not sure if that's enough to warrant a watch.
Oh, Warframe Moas are pretty cool.

Automata was brilliant, you should see it.
If you've seen Bladerunner, it's basically that, but with robots and a few plot changes.

It's amazing what a person can do with some LEGO and a few wooden blocks.
The Terminator is always a classic.

Even the ones from that Dawn of Fate game were pretty cool. ( Even though the game was pretty meh )

Well it was just gonna be Plain Jane robotics but due to unforeseen circumstances I slapped "fictional" right above it.

if you didn't cry watching this, you have no soul.
I like the robots in rideback (some of the control is given to the machine), where the solution to the problem of quick locomotion with bipedal machines are present.

I saw a poster for an anime from the 80s which had the same bipedal design and was motogp based, wish I knew what it was and saved the image to do a google image search.
How about TARS from interstellar

Some people will say it's boring and unimaginative but I think it's a pretty unique design and, if not quite realistic, at least an interesting idea of robotics might take us when we value function over form, such as in military applications.
