And tactically sound. Who'd ever suspect the cute box of cuddles to be a death machine?
Seriously, you want to fake out some humans? Get a bunch of robots that look like this:
Also, speaking of general Terminator stupidity, why don't the robots have eyes on the back of their heads? Why don't they gas people incessantly? Robots don't need clean air.
that one IS kinda scary.
3/4 audience today and sold out last night...
Fear.
Would YOU fear a C3PO-looking robot or an Ahnold-looking robot?
It's the same reason why The Empire uses giant, walking, attack vechiles. Obviously attack vechiles with wheels or tracks would be far more effective in moving through terrain, not to mention faster, but the sight of giant, walking attack vechiles strikes a lot more fear into the enemy.
It's fear born through over confidence.

I also hate cuddling in the theater. my SO often complains that I tend to fidget and get irritated if he holds my hand etc. I just want to watch the damn movie! especially if it's good.
Crap should be the other way around..!
If people really had control of science fiction no show/movie would be over 10 minutes long.
seriously. that gets old so fast. I think it's fun when you're twenty years old, but at some point, you just want to watch the movie.
I went at 1:30 today so I wouldn't have expected a sold out crowd...
Well don't count on me adding any more $ to the total while it's still at the Carmike here in Morgantown - my wheelchair gets me in to any movie for free there.
Some people have all the luck. Where is the justice I ask you?
Carmike is the only theater chain I know of that has such a policy. It was instituted in 1998. Interestingly enough, the first movie I saw under that policy was Star Trek: Insurrection.My disability has other benefits too, though - like a lifetime pass from the National Park Service. With the pass, I didn't have to pay the $25 entry fee when I visited the Grand Canyon on May 5th.
True, maybe it is effective to make people fear for their lives.
Yeah, that really hits the wallet hard too, at $16.50 a pop.
They are crazy not to allocate a few IMAX screes to Trek if the figures are still high enough to warrant it. Night at the Museum? In IMAX?? Why?
