This plot is becoming cliche and boring
Too many movies doing simple versions of this plot.
shareI hate the whole "the human-looking machines are mad and fed up because actual humans are treating them like machines" trope.
My car doesn't get mad that I leave it out in the driveway in the rain and blazing sun, just sitting there until I need to use it. Imagine if your car looked like a human and it just stood there in the driveway indefinitely until you needed it.
"Oh these poor robots. Look how they treat them." Yes, and I keep my can opener in a kitchen drawer, too.
'My car doesn't get mad that I leave it out in the driveway in the rain and blazing sun, just sitting there until I need to use it. Imagine if your car looked like a human and it just stood there in the driveway indefinitely until you needed it.'
That is one creepy image.
And that's exactly my point. If your car looks like a car, you don't care that it's there in the driveway day after day. If it looks like it's human, even though it's just a machine, and it's just standing there doing nothing, then it's creepy.
It's the human appearance that invokes the empathy from people for these machines.
