I, Robot

I went to see the movie I, Robot last night. It was very enjoyable, even though it probably had Dr. Asimov spinning in his grave.

It had elements of his robot stories. The Three Laws of Robotics & the Frankenstein complex.

The stories that I saw in the movie were Isaac Asimov's "Robot Dreams" & "Little Lost Robot" & Jack Williamson's "The Humanoids"

I don't know if anyone else has read "The Humanoids", but if you have, I'm sure you know what part of the movie I am talking about.
