Here we are with the fourth article in my ongoing series featuring robots, cyborgs, and sentient computers. In the first three articles,
14 Awesome Movie Robots You've Forgotten,15 More Movie Robots You've Probably Forgotten, and
12 Awesome Robots From TV History, I set up a few laws to restrict the size of the articles. Known as Tim's Laws, these rules are adjusted for each article.
Tim's First Law states that only cyborgs can be used, meaning pure robots are excluded.
Tim's Second Law states that only cyborgs from movies are allowed. Television cyborgs will not be tolerated (except when I write my article on television cyborgs).
Tim's Third Law states that a cyborg is defined as "a living being whose powers are enhanced by computer implants or mechanical body parts". (from the World English Dictionary). That leaves out guys with prosthetic legs or pacemakers. That also leaves out constructs like The Terminator, which are robots surrounded by living tissue.
Tim's Fourth Law states that only cyborgs who play a significant role in a movie are allowed in this article.
Tim's Fifth Law states that only one cyborg per movie franchise is allowed.
Tim's Sixth Law states that no kid shows, animated shows, anime, puppets, or anything else of that ilk is allowed in this article. That's it. Let's get started. Here are 10 great cyborgs, in no particular order, from film history.
