A short look at the movie "Isaac Asimov's Robots," originally a component in a VCR card game, but a surprisingly well made and faithful adaptation of Asimov's robot mystery novels.

  • You know what H-wood would do if they made a movie out of CoS: the robots would be creepy, there would be several martial arts fights, a few gunfights, some car crashes, and at the end, the murderer would be a robot who hates human beings.

    The Three Laws would turn out to be either e-vile corporate spin or e-vile government conspiracy.

    I'm thinking maybe the movie moguls need to just keep their mits off of Asimov. I wouldn't mind seeing the rest of this, though.

  • is there a full length version of this?

  • Caves of Steel was great but I actually found The Naked Sun to be an even better experience. It could make a great movie (and talk about a great use for 3D!).

  • Caves of Steel and Foundation both in pre-production - just do some googling...

  • @zvermilyer3 Are you KIDDING ME? Bicentennial Man was TERRIBLE! It made me want to PUKE ALL OVER THE PLACE. It was nothing like the book, nothing! *barfs all over*

    ahem. I'm fine...

  • @zvermilyer3

    "Bicentennial Man" is one I never got around to seeing. Your recommendation is what I needed to perk my interest, though. I'll check my library; not going to ask the GF to use up any of her Netflix for this (seeing how both "Barbarella" and "Quest for Fire" bombed with her).

  • @SailorBarsoom

    You think Hollywood can't make a good Asimov movie? Have you seen "Bicentennial Man" starring Robin Williams? That's based on an Asimov story and I (who have been an Asimov fan since I was a little kid) thought it was pretty good.

  • @Weestofteim

    Foundation might be cool, but there's already a movie franchise which is a combination of Asimov's _Foundation_ and Burroughs' _Barsoom_, with a touch of Herbert's _Dune_ thrown in: _Star Wars_.

  • @SailorBarsoom You're absolutely right! No blockbusters of Asimov's stories. What would you think of The Foundation? That would be great!

  • Silly Hyperwave Drama!
