So that's where they came up with the idea of HAL singing in 2001: A Space Odssey!

reply

lol, that was hilarious, excellent CGI, or not, they were so good that I could not tell the difference.
🤣

reply

It was pretty good!
Knowing nothing about the vid my first thought was 'Damn, we need to catch up with Japan!'

reply

I watched a film yesterday called "Monsters of Men" where the robot motions and movements were just as good as these; very impressive.

I'm leaning more towards those robots in the video been "real".

Edit: I just watched it a second time and there are three reasons I now believe they are real.

1. Slight indentations on the floormats 2. Shadowcasting 3. 2nd floor spectators watching them dance, not to mention the two tech controllers at the end of the gymnasium

reply

Why is everyone referring to this as CGI? Aren’t these real robots?

Yes, they are, my 2nd watch convinced me.

I just want my house 3d printed, thats all, i'm a simple man

reply

Who is brave enough to say they don't love them?

reply

Until they become self-aware and take over.

reply

Maybe I'm OK with that ... unless they install life clocks on us.

reply

I heard they have attack robots that move so fast they can only be seen with a strobe light.

reply

But we need a robot uprising to thwart the upcoming zombie Apocalypse.

reply

lol, the rise of the transformers to win the zombie apocalypse...what can go wrong?.

reply

Sounds like a winning plan👍
Fire 'em up

Nah! THIS is how robots boogie: -

Someone post Tweekie dancing in Buck Rogers.
The era immediately after Star Wars was a techno-embarrassment. Everyone was hashing together a robot for their movie or show. (Rocky 4?)

reply

Hush now, it was cutting edge.

reply

LOL, yep. Teddy Ruxpin ... now THERE was cutting edge.

reply

If Teddy Ruxpin becomes self-aware we are all doomed, doomed I tell you

Luckily we tossed Teddy out 30 years ago
He's probably terrifying a landfill in Jersey right now

Robotic Richard Simmons is shaped a little too much like Homer.

Laughter is an excellent tonic!
