Robots/Headscratchers: Difference between revisions

# Also the other problems I have with this world is how they seem to use oil as a all purpose liquid, for instance, in one shot a fountain is streaming oil. This suggests that there is no such thing as water in their world, for that matter then, how are there clouds and blue skies? Shouldn't the sky be a sort of black/brown colour? They also treat oil as coffee, milk, everything!

# Following on from that, what sort of idiot thought it was a good idea to have a ball rolling transit system, though they never collided in the movie, did you see how many there were flying through the sky in the rollercoaster scene? Am I supposed to believe that these things never collide?<br />I would go on about my theories on why the world is inhabited by robots but thats for the WMG page.

** Dude I hope you don't plan on watching any other kids' movies anytime soon - [[Up|That's not enough balloons to lift a house!]] [[Shrek|How are the dragon and the donkey able to have babies?]] [[Despicable Me|How does the Shrink Ray not violate the Law of Conservation of Mass?]] [[WALL-E|How is the robot still working after 700 YEARS!?!?!]] It's a ''kid's fantasy movie''. Just apply some [[Willing Suspension of Disbelief]], repeat the [[MST3K Mantra]] and calm down. As long as the universe follows the rules it has set for itself (which ''Robots'' does) other violations of reality are acceptable.

*** Um, he has every right to question the more "unusual/puzzling" aspects of kids' movies. That's what [[It Just Bugs Me]] is all about. Just becuase there's a [[Willing Suspension of Disbelief]] doesn't mean someone isn't going to stop and say "Wait, this doesn't make any sense!" even within the context of the movies' set "rules". The [[MST3K Mantra]] can only go so far before people are going to ask things like- [[Robots|"What happens if all the robots start to break down (IE: Who or what fixes them)?"]], [[Godzilla|"Where on earth did Baby Godzilla come from?"]], and the like. People nitpick movies. It's just something they do. Why? Who knows? Who cares? If someone wants to question the logic of a kids' movie, that's their right to do so. Does it make the movie any more or less enjoyable if you nitpick it? No, of course not. You can ''still'' enjoy a movie and still go "What the hell were they thinking?" at certain less-than-logical moments.

*** Upgrades are shown to be a thing of luxury. Something akin to fancy clothing such as tuxedos and cashmere. At the very least the average robot doesn't seem to be able to afford to buy these very often. So it might actually be more like the US situation where only 1% of the people are the "Elites" and can avoid being deemed outmodes.
