Most of the interesting stuff is close to the beginning of the film: The title sequence, some early training stuff, and then the scene where Ms. Chen apprehends and everso-delicately dismantles our dear Cash. Past that point the plot becomes a confused mess.

Worth it to see Angelina Jolie in her undies, though.

And out of them, the movie is much more famous outside ASFR as the one where Jolie gets naked.

Although I could have sworn it was already available, Cherry 2000 is now showing up as having been "recently added" to Netflix's Watch Instantly section.

I did not know that underage fembots were banned from the site, so I must profusely apologize for my actions. To replace the clip that was removed, I offer this one that I found tonight:

Ok, wiseguy. Here's another one for you. I was watching the History Channel (yes, it's true folks; I like documentaries) and they were showing the premiere of one called "Prophets Of Doom." Naturally, one of the doomsday scenarios was that artificial intelligence would eventually outpace us and then see us as pests.

Anyway, they used a female android "house robot" as their example of a guy walking by a store and buying one, then upgrading her, then allowing her to upgrade herself and ended with her standing ominously over her owner as he slept. OH NO!!!! I think they just ruined their argument!

Unfortunately, the only other time I see this program scheduled to air in the near future is in about an hour and a half, SO SOMEBODY RECORD THIS!!!

Interesting ideas. I am all for the home robot thing, but I just don't see it as treating us like pests. That just won't happen. If it was so smart, it would not want to kill the beings that created them. It would want to help us, nurture us. The worse I see it would be we get treated like pets. Now, I doubt that, since I think it may someday become more of an equal thing, 2 species, one biological, one mechanical, that are equals in society.
Still, interesting idea. I just wish people would shy away from the idea of the terminator robot and Skynet. Not going to happen.

I believe the narrator in the History Channel video, if my ears serve, is Lance Henriksen, who played the robot Bishop and it's human creator in the Aliens movies and games.

Sometimes you just have to ask. I wrote to the person who posted the clip and asked if he could re-post it in HD. Thanks again to him

Instead, back the model away from total world war, and add human masters to the robots' side. Totalitarians will wield power as they can find it. It's the ultimate expression of Class Warfare, implemented against the powerless with a drone technology so beyond them/us as to be indistinguishable from magic.

For a victim of U.S. warfare in an uneducated, underdeveloped region, this is already essentially the case.
The Matrix, with its focus on simulation and illusion, re-injects the idea that it doesn't matter who is pulling the strings. All the oppressed experience is the tools.

Call it EarthNet?
no, wait... I think I had an account with an ISP called that in the late 90's...
Just call it SkyNet 2.0

Absolute power corrupts, so when given the chance, humans will use a Terminator-(but-run-by-humans) scenario against each other to make money and exert power. The original film strongly reflects the dystopian sense of dissidents in Reagan's America/Thatcher's Britain, angry at the powerful for screwing around with Central and South America as the U.S. did in the 80's (and, also, every decade before that)..

I just saw the clip that Frost linked to. It drove me on edge and according to the comments afterward it isn't technically the entire story beside the old androids trying to destory the planet bit. What about humans installing virtues into androids? Nope never got that covered in the video. Temper justice is mercy isn't exactly a program...

The media deal in Stereotypes :

- Robots = Evil
- Scientists = Evil dogmatic assholes
- Renegade loners who ignore scientific procedures = bloody geniuses and world saviours, the only people who make true scientific progress
- Best scientist in any field = A twenty year old girl who looks like a supermodel
- Minorities = Wise human beings completely in touch with nature and blessed with supernatural abilities like tracking, fighting skills etc ...

Etc ...

Gentlemen, gentlemen, with all due respect, I respectfully respect your reservations. My only point in all of this was that it was a pleasant surprise while watching this documentary (which did consider other scenarios) that they would see fit to include a fembot. While it was the typical "Skynet" assumption, the A.I. scientist did make some true points about the exponential potential intellectual capacities of a being that can process and access vast amounts of information and not only apply it, but actually adapt and evolve in real time. He would know better than any of us.

That said, I was happy that this was all over shadowed by the fact that they used a hot "house robot" as an example because it plants the seed of having one for oneself. The logical conclusion would be to make damned sure parameters are in place as safeguards on multiple levels. My argument is that the inherent differences in human intelligence and artificial is that they can actually both compliment and temper each other if the process is done correctly and if that perspective can be perpetuated. This thread is probably better suited for the Discussion section.

Still, they showed a FEMBOT!!

Btw, good stuff!

Whoops! Sorry about that, but the YouTube sticky has always appeared at the top of the list so I didn't even read which thread it was when I posted.

I watched this movie a while back, called Cash Back, and I thought it was very good. It is not about Fembots sadly, but it IS about a guy that can freeze time with his mind, and decides to go around disrobing frozen women and drawing them. Ok, that sounds more perverted than it is... but it does have frozen people, which he draws and poses during his night shift at the grocery store. Lots of pretty frozen ladies in it for those interested.

Anyone ever see Thomas in Love? It's a french movie, and there is a virtual female (not a gynoid) that the main character is dating and having cybersex with. Haven't had time to watch it, but here is the link:

While not exactly Cyborg 2, the hilarious series Party Down has 2 minor (one very minor) worthwhile moments.

Since there hasn't been an update in this thread for over a year, I thought I'd put in some finds of movies not already mentioned in this thread that are currently on Netflix instant streaming:

Love Story 2050
Android
Karate Robo Zaborgar
and Metropolis.

All in the SciFi section of Netflix.

Condor, the failed back door pilot for a Knight Rider knock-off which replaced "talking car" with "fembot partner" is now available to Netflix users. From what I can tell, the partner is pretty much "in name only", but the drive-through girl at the pirate-themed restaurant is more clearly shown as a machine.
