callistra | I, Robot

Ok, I enjoyed it. I spose it helps that I can't remember the original story. It does say "suggested by" Asimov's book.

I think the biggest problem with the movie was the title. If they could have named it *anything else* that was a bow to Asimov, there would have been a LOT less whinging, and I might have even paid to see it on the big screen. I enjoyed the movie, and I liked the story line, it was cool. Fave lines:

"You are experiencing a car accident."
"The hell I am!!"

I also like the way the big iron has female names/voices. In my first ever novel, my big iron was called Laura, (yes, ripped from Future Track Five for those who might remember Robert Westall from high school.) :-)

Ok, on to Movie number two.

Any chickies out there not doing anything tomorrow night? Intimo is having a launchie thing, it's $5 and there's tea and coffee provided and a bit of a fashion show and hundreds of dollars of prizes. It is tomorrow night though. It's gonna be heaps of fun!
