i just watched this movie again, second time in 28 years.. and it was just as bad now as it was then. I remember that as a kid I was more interested in the pop up book than the movie. I can still see why. Better plot development, better special effects, and better acting. I really thought this movie was horrible throughout. It was very evident that Disney tried to jump on the bandwagon with a big budget sci-fi flick to compete with Star Wars, but it is more than obvious that there was no heart or depth behind the story (not to mention a ridiculous premise). This movie represents EVERYTHING I hate about big budget Hollywood. Tons of hype with no payoff. Watching this movie actually made me angry. A robot with a southern accent?? named old bob even??? the robots that had AI, yet could only make right angle turns, maxi's blender blades of death.. seriously, I really hated this flick.. I know I'm rambling, but seriously, Star Wars was proof that a good movie with decent effects could be made in this era, with even a small budget.. Notice Disney quit the whole space thing after this monstrosity... ugg..
