While many of these are good movies hey are most definitely not robotcore

They bring robot feels, tried to be varied.

The robot might not be able to find themselves in every movie but the feels are relatable in my opinion.

He was a Quiet Man

Nightcrawler - I know it's been disputed but I think he's a high functioning robot. It's like a robot fantasy film.

One Hour Photo

Lars and the Real Girl - Only nonrobot aspect is the sappy, happy ending. Beginning in particular is solid robot.

Lost in Translation focused way too much on Scarlett Johansson. Her simplistic expression as she aimlessly walked around Tokyo just annoyed me. Any prolonged focus on a privileged female really takes away from a film's robot credibility.

After posting this I decided to look up the One Hour Photo trailer. The first 30 seconds is just one long description of a robot.

A Simple Plan may not have a robot theme but it has a 100% pure robot.

So you basically made "robot chart" without "I Stand Alone"... The most important film for a robot. What the fuck.

Check that shit, this guy is a pure robot, he even wants to start a beta uprising.

>>25492487
Rampage 1 and 2 have the same kind of straightforward truthful monologues everyone rolls their eyes at because it sounds too obvious and hamfisted, but Rampage - like God Bless America - are about alienated people who violently hate a society they don't belong in.

These films are cathartic robot viewing I think should be recommended for anyone stuck in the hell that is here.
