    • TheAkolyte, on 10/11/2007, -3/+5Really.
    • flernk, on 10/11/2007, -0/+29"In this thrilling episode of Robosapien, our hero picks up a cup full of water and delivers it to a small child, spilling only a small part of the contents!!! Stay Tuned for EXCITEMENT!!!"
    • snapcase, on 10/11/2007, -0/+6Just when you may have thought that hollywood had run out of pathetically bad movie ideas....
    • thatsmyaibo, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7Wow...they really have run out of ideas for movies.

      "Dead or alive, you are playing with me"
    • fober, on 10/11/2007, -3/+1There better be a Bobby Lee cameo.

    • Greyhaven7, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3The name of this thing has always annoyed me. We are ***** Sapiens... meaning a member of the genus ***** possessing Sapience (wisdom or discernment).

      Robo (being short for "robot", obviously) means one of the following:
      1. A mechanical device that sometimes resembles a human and is capable of performing a variety of often complex human tasks **on command or by being programmed in advance**.
      2. A machine or device that operates automatically or **by remote control**.
      3. A person who works mechanically **without original thought**, especially one who responds automatically **to the commands of others**.

      ALL of the definitions for "robot" deny sapience (the ability to judge for one's own self). So RoboSapien would basically mean: Possessing Mindless Wisdom. Blatant oxymoron!

      Sorry, it just annoys me. A more accurate name for it would be Robo *****.... which would also be a LOT funnier.

  • chicken101, on 10/11/2007, -0/+13This movie will probably suck.

    edit: ok, so I was being optimistic.
  • InsultComedy, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7What's it called, Short Circuit 3?

    Robot loving movies tend to be crap.
    • Jarasmen, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2HEY! Short Circuit 2 was awesome! It's one of those rare movies that almost make me cry.

      "don't kill me, I'm alive, aliiiiiveeeee"
      *sniff*
  • trer, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5Is this the sequel to "Soccer Mummy" starring Ed O'Neil?
    • Dested, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5GO SOCCOR MUMMY! YOU TAUGHT ME TO BELIEVE IN MYSELF!
  • DanteDefiance, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2WHY
  • importpsycho, on 10/11/2007, -3/+1movie made for kids, ofcourse it's going to sound dumb to everyone else
    • TheLull, on 10/11/2007, -1/+0That is true, the premise of most "kid" movies sound terrible to me, but there is a difference between "Skippy the Happy Puppy" and (as stated above) a 90 minute long commercial.
  • elDoppelganger, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5Robo dancing? Picking up objects with a claw? How can this movie not be gold!?!
