Best Robots in Movie History  
BESTS 

Tags: robots, Transformers, all time, cool, top 10, top 50, Terminator

These are the top "artificial people" from the history of film:

1.	C3-PO (Star Wars franchise) - C3-PO gets his name from the map grid reference of George Lucas' local Post Office
2.	Johnny 5 (Short Circuit) - "What if it goes out and melts down a bus load of nuns? How would you like to write the headline on that one?"
3.	Optimus Prime (Transformers) - The word "Transformer" is used only once in the entire film - when a character ascribes an explosion and power failure to "a blown transformer".
4.	Droideka Droids (Star Wars: The Phantom Menace) - The Droideka can fire up to 240 dual blasts a minute (unless their blaster arms get too hot)
5.	R2-D2 (Star Wars franchise) - "Your droids! We don't serve their kind here!"
6.	The Sentinels (X-Men 3) - In the third and perhaps final X-Men movie, the fan favourites are inserted in a 'virtual reality' cameo role.
7.	Sonny (I-Robot) - Detective: "Can a robot write a symphony? Can a robot turn a canvas into a beautiful masterpiece?"
8.	Evil Bill & Ted (Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey) - "Okay, dudes... oh I mean fellow policemen. my son Ted Theodore Logan, and his friend Bill S. Preston ESQ. have been murdered and replaced by evil robots from the future"
9.	ABC Warriors (Judge Dredd) - "Status? Commander? Mission?"
10.	Swarms of robot spiders (Lost In Space) - The spiders are nameless aggressors, but the robot in the original series did have a (rarely-mentioned) name: in the third-season of the parent TV show it was shown in its packing crate, and the crate was labelled "ONE General Utility Non-Theorizing Environmental ROBOT" with the G, U, N, T, E, and all letters in "ROBOT" in red capital letters, while all the other letters were black; suggesting the acronym "GUNTER"
11.	ED 209 (Robocop) - "Please put down your weapon. You have 20 seconds to comply"
12.	SID 6.7 (Virtuosity) - "Just because I'm carrying the joy of killing your family inside me doesn't mean we can't be friends"
13.	Kitt (Knight Rider) - David Hasselhoff and William Daniels (voice of K.I.T.T.) first met at a Christmas party six months after 'Knight Rider' started shooting.
14.	HAL9000 (2001, A Space Odyssey) - "I know you and Frank were planning to disconnect me, and I'm afraid that's something I cannot allow to happen"
15.	Terminator Series 800/Model 101 (The Terminator) - O.J. Simpson was considered for the role of the Terminator, but the producers thought he might be "too nice" to be taken seriously as a cold-blooded killer
16.	BumbleBee (Transformers) - the cool Camaro that can only talk through songs on the radio
