Seems a little different from what I remember from the movie.

I think the movie was ~~very loosely based~~ only tangentially based on a book

[–] herrvogel@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

It wasn't based on the book at all. The book itself is a compilation of short stories, but the movie's script wasn't based on any of those. It was originally written as an original action script that had nothing to do with anything Asimov. The studio that agreed to produce it made the writers rename it to "I, Robot" and insert a bunch of Asimov sounding shit in there, like the 3 laws and some character names.

It makes me sad that you associate that name with Will Smith more than Isaac Asimov. But this is actually based on the original Atari arcade game. The name was a pun on the book's title, since the gameplay involved an eye and a robot.

Neither the game nor the movie had anything to do with the book other than the name.
