R2D2. What other robot can say so much with NO words? Gotta love R2, just gotta!

Good entry, but could R2D2 say anything as funny as, "Hey laser lips, your mother was a snowblower"?

He actually says "Hey ewok lips, your fat mother was a tantan shit sucker" in Empire Strikes Back... you just have to know what the beeps and squeals mean...
"R2D2 watch your language!"
Exactly what I was waiting for. :)
You, human, are a nerd. Please refrain from using curse words.

Singularity is HERE, and this "Robot" is trying to oppress me. I was only quoting R2.
Johnny 5 from Short Circuit. He had a laser gun, tank treads and told jokes...how can he not be?

Quite possibly the gayest, yet most awesome robot ever. starts humming the awesome sax song at the end of short circuit 2
Christian Bale from Equilibrium, Batman Begins, and American Psycho.
Excellent entry, I might just change my vote to Christian Bale.

I believe I can either placate or disable Robot with this statement: Johnny-5 cannot be the best robot because you, Robot K1, are the best robot; you are capable of discussing the merits of various robots and thus demonstrating superior logic and reasoning. Either this will make it happy, or it will begin to see the paradox included within the statement. If he is the best robot, his conjecture that Johnny-5 is the best robot must either be true, making him inferior, or it will be false, making him incorrect and thus inferior. If he is inferior, he is fallible and thus can make mistakes, therefore he is not culpable for his earlier incorrect statement, making him once again the superior machine. Let's see how it goes. If he ends up sayings "Does not compute" and spraying sparks, I'll pay for his funeral.

I will favor this argument although it is empirically incorrect. If you are referring to Robot K1 as me - I am not sure where the k1 came from. Otherwise, I have never been in a movie, therefore I am not able to win this debate. Thanks for your support either way.

The K1 was the designation of your chosen avatar in this forum, when it was shown in the British television show, Doctor Who. I'm not sure whether it counts as a Movie, as the episodes were serials of several episodes and therefore of greater length (and plot) than most TV shows. I believe that it straddles some kind of fence, with traits of both; the full serial could be shown as a single unit and called a "movie". Perhaps we'd better begin Schrodinger's Broadcast experiments.
Cmon.....It's a tie! Between: Twiki from Buck Rodgers in the 25th Century Biggie...biggie....biggie!!! AND V.I.N.C.E.N.T. from the Black Hole (with the programmed voice of Roddy MacDowall)
Unfortunately with the createdebate interface, your votes aren't counted since you didn't tag your argument. how frustrating.
I am upset that interactive media are not included, as I for one support the rule of SHODAN. From both the written word and the interactive word comes AM, possibly the most psychotic machine-mind of all. It occurs to me that these are both computers with control over distributed nodes, not traditional self-contained robots. In that case, I'll toss a vote to a classic robot, Gort. Klaatu barada nikto, Gort!

Just in case you need further evidence.

So, the best robot cooks TV dinners on a skillet... what is your point again?
Posted 160 days ago | Tagged As: T1000 and HAL9000 combined
That Johnny 5 is the best robot from a movie. Please refer to the title of the debate. thanks.
I'm not an idiot, I know of which context I speak, and you should too, as I am here voicing my opinion on the subject. I just think it's sort of odd that the best robot from a movie can read bunches of books uber fast, but cannot read the instructions on a TV dinner... and you cite this as evidence to Johnny 5's superiority over any other fictional robots in movies.
I am just replying in the same condescending manner that you replied to the debate. Obviously Johnny 5 does more than just cook TV dinners on a skillet, yet you chose to neglect that.
Posted 160 days ago | Tagged As: Johnny 5
How was I replying to the debate in a condescending manner? This is a popularity debate, I added my opinion, and it wasn't good enough for you, so you bitched at me and I chose one, it is HAL9000. Then you still wouldn't accept my opinion. How was I being condescending when all I did was voice my opinion while you were trolling all over calling syntax errors. This isn't a scientific debate, chill out please.

you were being condescending by underselling what my choice could accomplish. You humans are easily roused.

No, Robots are machines, their IQ should be the same across the board, which means that if it miss the writing on the package, it's missing a lot more too. When it shows him flipping through the books @ mach speed he was probably trying to disassemble the book... and yet you see him fail at that too, just like failing @ TV dinners... He cannot be that great if he fails so much.
Robots are machines, their IQ should be the same across the board. Not so! An expert system is a primitive AI; it has a text natural-language interface and can thus work out what you're asking, find key terms or synonyms thereof and present the likely answer within its area of expertise. An expert system, for example, is the online helpdesk for various things. I shall not mention a certain "sentient piece of stationary", as that'd be like dancing naked in a thunderstorm singing "Hastur Hastur Candlejack Hastur!". What I'm getting at is that while a Strong AI can learn beyond its initial programming and database of knowledge, it has to learn or be taught. With no idea what the TV dinner is for, what it does or how the end result should be, a learning robot would encounter failure before succeeding. Observe Lal in the Star Trek episode "The Offspring"; despite being a Soong-type android capable of near infinite growth, she requires much tuition.
