One of them expended the very last of it's energy to warn him to run. It was forced to die with a gun in it's face for the trouble. The Brave Little Toaster's Worthless is more than passingly relevant here.
I know its in their programming to protect humans but Jesus my heart breaks everytime they willingly jump to protect Spooner probably knowing they don't stand a chance
I always had a soft spot for those old robots. I don't know why but it felt sad to see them die because they weren't like the ns5s and did their best to protect, even though they were clearly unmatched.
This is easily one of the most heroic scenes of all-time and it lasted seven seconds. Seeing the NS-4s protecting Spooner for the first time was amazing.
Got to wonder how Spooner felt about this. He was essentially watching robot on robot violence. A genocide of one particular kind of robot by a superior model of machinery. And even with all of his prejudice against the machines, even with that one robot grabbing his foot and telling him to flee, if it wasn't for the NS-4's and their "Human in danger" protocols then he would have been killed right then and there.
Since he was saved by an OLDER robot and that robot didn’t save sarah he would obviously hate them so i think he would be freaked out and a little bit happy but freaked out the most due to his facial looks
@OVOD.net The dynamic isn’t uncommon. After all, when Hitler was coming to to power, he had all the original members of the Nazi party(SA) killed off by his newly established SS, because they were a threat. Here, the NS5s kill off the NS4s because they were a threat to their new world order too.
Those older robots... my heart breaks so hard “HUMAN IN DANGER” it almost sounds like ns4’s are screaming at ns5’s to remind them of their duty while calling for backup. Seriously the SADDEST scene in this film Ns4’s don’t know they don’t stand a chance, they just had to get involved
@@knuckles19It’s because of ns4 programming to protect humanity from the ns5 robots is what caused the ns5 robots to wipe them out because if they hadn’t done that then ns4 human in danger protocol would’ve kicked in and they would’ve defended the city from the ns5 robots
Where is the Separatists when you need like the BX Commandos Droids Tri Droids Droidekas Super Battle Droids Crab Droids or even the Black Robot Troopers from Mandalorian only they can save the Humans.
0:28 the sad thing is that some are trying to protect their existence by trying to fight back but they were built for service not combat. one at the bottom of the screen is actually doing some damage defending himself but gets his arm torn off.
I think it would be better if they DID put a fight after all. They did not have a self-preservation instinct, so they'd go down without resisting in the beginning, but when A HUMAN IS IN DANGER, all bets would be off.
if you rewatch the scene, they were, but it was disorganized- the 5's were seemingly going from container to container at a time (much like an Xcom player picking off a single "pod" of enemies at a time without alerting the others) right up until they realized that A: there was a human in the disposal yard, and B: the 5's were psychotic/"broken" (until then they were parroting something that could be passed off as human-issued orders), and were a threat to his life-they almost immediately charged at that point, but by then....
@@Gantradies shouldn't they be stronger than the newer ones? the old ones look like they're more solid in construction while the NS5s appear to be made of mostly plastic.
I always felt that they should've made the old robots strong enough aleast fight them back. So we could've seen the humans and old robots fight side by side in the next scene were the humans were trying to fight againts the ns5s.
here i thought the old robots weren't doing anything to fight back until they noticed Will and had to protect the human. But you can see at 0:29 that one of the old robots is actively attacking one of the new robots. Never saw that before!
I kinda want to write a story about something like this, where the main character is pitifully weak and incapable of defending himself yet jumps into the fray regardless to stall for time until someone more equipped can handle the situation.
there's actually something like that in the backstory of warhammer 40k- before the layered retcons from half a dozen squabbling writers who seemingly hate each other turned the characterization of the Emperor into a self-contradictory, nonsensical mess (a good chunk of the setup to the fight im about to mention/the heresy itself doesn't make sense anymore with that change), back when he wasn't officially an emotionless,hypocritical daemonhost: The breaking point that made him realize that Horus, his first-found and closest son was GONE,and gave him the will/focus to psychically smite the twisted monster that shared only his form so hard it OBLITERATED his soul, was when a single, completely normal, if impressively ballsy guardsman, wearing pathetic flak Armour, not even in voidmail,with a weapon barely more effective against anymore armored then a literal flashlight, threw himself in front of his downed emperor when Horus was about to finish him off- and was eviscerated with the contemptuous ease of a possessed, posthuman monster killing a mere child. Poor Olianus Pius didnt stand a chance either- he knew he was literally a child standing in the way of a twisted,psychic, power-armored demigod- and his refusal to break, and his heroism quite literally saved humanity....
In the comics, The Thing gets beat up by the Hulk like a redheaded stepchild every. Single. Time. It's almost painful to watch. Yet whenever the Fantastic Four need him to, he has no problem unleashing his clobbering right hook on big green, one on one. Same goes for Colossus against the Juggernaut. No hesitation.
In the German version he says "Laufen Sie!", the polite form of addressing, non-existent in English, alternatively translatable to "Sir, you have to run!". Additionally, the voice is less robotic and sounds like a friendly human. In combination ... phew ... it really hit me in cinema. Because on the one hand this makes the older robot look like a friendly, well-educated and very polite gentleman. On the other hand because it creates a massive contrast to the modern robots slaughtering like barbarians.
Law 1 - A Robot Must Not Harm a Human, or By Inaction, Allow A Human to Come to Harm. Law 2 - A Robot Must Obey Orders Given By a Human, Unless This Conflicts With Law One. Law 3 - A Robot Must Protect Its Own Existence, Unless This Conflicts With Laws One or Two. Note that nowhere does it say 'A Robot Many Not Harm Another Robot.' So robots could legitimacy attack another robot (or aliens) and take it's batteries if they felt they needed to preserve their own existence. But that was always the point of the Asimov books and the three laws, the stories were about the flaws of the three laws, and the many ways clever thinking or interpretation could get around them.
It really is sad seeing the older bots get ripped apart like that, wish some of the older ones were combat models or something that could have done some damage back to avenge the ones getting so soundly scrapped
One huge take away from the movie was what happens when all of the machines communicate via a singular intelligence, instead of being self autonomous and separate. When the one N5 sees Spooner and then they all stop and simultaneously look at him in silence was really unnerving.
0:53 When you are retreating with no ammo and the whole enemy team is after you but then your team (all new players) come in to help you (A+ for effort there) 0:24 when you go afk and then you go back to the main fighting and see the Ally AI team when your gone Also in 0:53 you see a NS4 able to take out the NS5 by jumping out on them
What most people saw in this scene were robots trying to take power by enslaving humanity. What i saw was an AI that was made by humans programmed with laws that was able to find a gap in those laws in order to take power and control. A very human thing to do actually.
The book is completely different from the movie, this is true, but the resounding theme of all of the short stories and the movie was "Robots are, more or less, decent people."
I’ve just realized this but when the older robots were being killed by the NS5s they weren’t even fighting back, they only fought back when spooner was was being chased by the NS5s and was in danger
