I, Robot Blu-ray Release - Blu-ray Forum

teunis · 10-03-2007, 05:41 AM

Good evening. First off, my apologies if this has been noticed and noted in another thread, I did a quick search first.

I just watched I, Robot for the last time on DVD before trading and upgrading to Blu-Ray. It's better then I had remembered and I am excited for the Blu-Ray release.

What I noticed is: Sonny is a "blue" coloured robot (NS-5), a good guy, along with Spooner, our hero cop. The evil NS-5's are all "red". After I realized the visual differences in this film between good and evil, I thoroughly enjoyed "blue" kicking the crap out of "red".

Anybody else seeing a bigger picture here?

Awesome !!

lol, good catch. I should get the Blu version, I liked that movie.

...there is a symbolic meaning there.

I can't wait to see this movie on Blu. I haven't read the book by Asimov but I enjoyed the movie.

The Asimov book is actually a collection of short stories and the movie bears little resemblance to any of them, except for the concept of the Three Laws. However the book is a classic and you would probably enjoy it. And I enjoyed the movie as well, can't wait to get the blu-ray (never bought the DVD).

Then the same thing goes for transformers? Autobots had blue eyes and decepticons had red..And it is a HD-DVD exclusive..Go figure..

How about the HD DVD logo in Toshiba HD DVD players glowing in BLU ?

If you look closely in Casino royal when Bond sneaks into the Security office (after parking that guy's Range Rover) you will see the video equipment used are blu-ray players.

gadgets · 10-03-2007, 12:27 PM

ye this movie is on the top of my order list a long with so many others

can't wait for this one

ZMan · 10-03-2007, 12:38 PM

Blue has always been depicted in history and folklore as a good color (Heaven is always shown in a shade of blue) while red has always been an evil color (Hell is always shown in red)!

I, Robot is a must have... I love Will Smith

Good catch I noticed it in the theater when I saw it along with Sir Richard Branson going through airport security....

Mr. Joshua · 10-03-2007, 03:04 PM

Anyone ever notice that Darth Vader's Light Saber is red and Obi Won's is blue in Star Wars Episode IV? Lucas was thinking of blu-ray way back when....

Xerious · 10-03-2007, 03:10 PM

- Sting (Bilbo's and Frodo's sword) shines blue when trolls are around (heh)
- Autobots have blue eyes and Decepticons have red ones (in the cartoons)

I have literally been everywhere on the internet and cannot find any pre-orders for I, robot. Does anyone know if it is delayed? or what the issue is?

This is the only site so far that I have seen it at so far and it has it listed for Nov 13th, but, I am sure more sites will add it soon.

u_nick · 10-09-2007, 02:04 PM

A lot of new releases arent being allowed to be preordered until about a month or 3 weeks prior to the release date. I expect I, Robot to pop up this weekend, or sometime next week.

Moretonbay · 10-09-2007, 03:13 PM

I Robot hasn't been confirmed yet- if anyone is listing it on their site they are doing it based on a rumor that its being released.

The studio has not confirmed this with any of the distirbutors or retailers - once this is done you will see it up.
