From animated family movies to the scariest sci-fi thrillers, robots have been and will likely always continue to be a popular theme to explore on-screen. One reason robot movies are so popular is because of their ability to make the audience think about their relationship to technology in new ways. Because robots exist in the real world, it’s exciting and thought-provoking to think about the good and the bad of this technology and the ways in which it can lead to positive and negative developments as the technology continues to advance.
