The guys at Times Online (UK) have compiled a list of the 50 coolest movie robots, measured with the following factors in mind:

  • Coolness (just how well designed, shiny or generally well-appointed the robot appeared to be)

  • Dangerousness (scoring not only on built-in weaponry, but the robot's eagerness to use it)
