Blinky - A movie about robots, and how life requires emotions
Brandon Davenport
Robot movies are a dime a dozen, ranging from taking over the world to becoming the families best friend. Not many robot movies explore the emotional disconnect of man and machine, and how in the end they’re just metal and plastic held together by the idea that they can be our best friend. The movie is simple, a futuristic childs toy enlightens a boy’s life with games and fun times, but as the time goes on and the boy changes - the robot stays the exact same.
Blinky™ by Ruairi Robinson
We have a question — If you had a robot that could entertain you endlessly, take care of any household work you need done and show no signs of conflict, would it get old and frusterating or would you just take advantage of it?
