Since this post was originally off topic but about
Robot Shows I'd like to rant a little.

Has anyone ready Issac Asimov's "I, Robot" which the
new Will Smith film is based on?  Well, if you have
read the classic sci-fi novel you will know it has
little in common with the movie at all.  They took the
original story behind "I, Robot" and twisted it
completely out of context.  
Dean R. Koonz's (I think I misspelled that) "The
Watchers" was butchered into two different movies that
took his original story which was really good and
twisted it.
If film makers are going to do film adaptations of
novels they should try to stay as true to the original
work as possible like with J.R.R. Tolken's "The Lord
of Rings" triology and the "Harry Potter" novels.  I
know a few compromises have to be made for telling a
story on film, but don't butcher the original piece of
work you are using to make the film.
