5. Paulie's Robot (Rocky IV)
Why it's awesome: Designed to do nothing but bring you birthday cake and beer, and play 80s music out of it's giant Stewie Griffin head.
Why it blows: I'm pretty sure it got banged by Paulie. And it's definitely not designed for that.
4: Johnny Cab (Total Recall)
Why it's awesome: Safer than any human cab driver in the city right now
Why it blows: Spontaneously combusts at random times, drives like he's in a street race with Charles Barkley Gary Busey and Lindsay Lohan, and is designed to run down passengers who can't pay. So just slightly safer than the human cab drivers in the city right now.
3. Evil Bill & Ted (Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey)
Why they're awesome: Out of all the robots on this list, they actually (shockingly) come the closest to accomplishing a goal for which they were constructed.
Why they blow: Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter still defeat them in a bullshit move involving cheating in a game of checkers and coleco electric football with death a la The Seventh Seal, making them also (and shockingly) the second least plausible characters in the list.
2. HAL 9000 (2001: A Space Odyssey)
Why it's awesome: "the 9000 series is the most reliable computer ever made. No 9000 computer has ever made a mistake or distorted information. We are all, by any practical definition of the words, foolproof and incapable of error."
Why it blows: It's about as capable of error as Nick Nolte. And it's a huge dick about it.
1. The Terminator series 800 model 101 (Terminator Franchise)
Why it's awesome: The most badass killing machine of all time. It's designed to look like a human to infiltrate human societies and kill everyone.
Why it blows: It's designed to look like a 300 lb Austrian bodybuilder dressed like a gay hell's angel. I would be 1000% less alarmed if a metal robot were trying to infiltrate my society.
Honorable Mentions: Johnny 5 from Short circuit, Kevin Costner in all his movies, The terrifying robot chick from Metropolis, and the gayest robot ever C3PO.
The Best: Optimus Prime (Transformers)
He's a mack truck and a rock 'em sock 'em robot in one. I legit listed that as my number one career option in kindergarten. He's like what would come out of jessica alba if chuck norris impregnated her. And that would be the third most powerful baby ever, behind Benjamin Brady and John Edward Thomas Moynahan.
The Worst: Viper Probe Droid (star wars)
Remember those stupid things darth vader sent out to find luke skywalker in the Empire Strikes back? What was his game plan there? Send out infity robots randomly into the universe and eventually one's gotta land right the fuck next to luke sywalker? and then one fucking does? Right fucking next to him and the abominable snow man? And the fucking thing looks like Jeff Goldbloom about 4/5 of the way through The Fly. Fuck you george lucas, thats less plausable than two robots looking exactly like stoners from San Dimas going back in time to sabatoge the Wyld Stallyns in a high school battle of the bands. Thank god its got all those incredibly useful little t-rex arms though. Its like a swiss army knife where every attachment is tweezers.
