It bothers me that this guy keeps calling the female robots "androids", as femme-formed robots are gynoids, not androids. I wish he would because it is otherwise fascinating.

And IMHO the gynoid looks pretty cool without the pasty corpse-like skin.

Ah! The video of the Android without her skin scared me.

So in other words, the more human something looks, the more we notice any inhuman qualities to it.

Maybe that explain the success of "talking 3d animals" films like Ice Age or Madagascar, versus the failure of films like Final Fantasy or Polar Express...where characters try to look more human.
