We (Heart) Robots

There was an article in our paper today about robots. I can tell you right up front that we love us some robots at our house. I took a poll to see what robot was the favorite...here's what we came up with.

Two votes (Steve and Danny) for Robbie the Robot - from Forbidden Planet. Cause he's awesome.
One vote (Nathan): Marvin the paranoid android - from the original Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy.

One vote (Alex): Data from STNG. Cause he's like Spock, also he can bend metal bars with his bare hands, and he plays an awesome Sherlock Holmes - on the holodeck.
One vote (me): Rosie, from The Jetsons. Frankly there just aren't enough girl robots out there.

Who's your favorite robot?

I'm kinda fond of "Carl" from Meet the Robinsons- I like anybody who'll take care of dinner for me.

Alex said...

For those who are wondering, my second place choice would be myself.

H.A.L.--or was he just a computer? Anyway, he was going to kill you.

I (Heart)Alex too...

Rosie is one - who doesn't love a sarcastic pushy robot? (Reminds me of someone but who?)

And Data is two - I loved the episode where he got his emotion chip.

Rosie: not only sarcastic and pushy, but she really works the apron.
