I'm happy with my list, and feel it's a good one.<br /><br />Best,<br />John<br />John Kenneth Muirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15629979615332893780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12380553.post-53258406997104776842013-06-19T10:08:32.891-04:002013-06-19T10:08:32.891-04:00Dude.

I thought about R2D2 and C3PO too, but I felt like I couldn't include one without the other, and then I was taking up too much space! :)<br /><br />Limiting to ten is really, really difficult! Hope to see a list from SGB on this one, my friend...<br /><br />best,<br />JohnJohn Kenneth Muirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15629979615332893780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12380553.post-10896168100156759352013-06-17T17:32:52.754-04:002013-06-17T17:32:52.754-04:00Hi Le0pard13!

Hal 9000 would make me include both R2D2 and C3PO. Albeit, maybe they are best for a top ten robot/computer/A.I. list in science-fiction films. Great list idea!<br /><br />SGBSGBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07137406272001346149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12380553.post-74662502437962434312013-06-17T17:19:45.290-04:002013-06-17T17:19:45.290-04:00Great idea, John.
