It's unconventional, because Kubrik has an unconventional mind, and unconventional ideas. You think Kubrik, and Speilberg didn't realize going in that this was not an normal ending. to me seeing the world without humans only strengthenes the comparison made at the beginning with Humans to God, because it makes the relationship (between robots and humans) intangible and mysterious to the robots, as our relationship with God is. Quite an interesting comparison. Yes the ending could have been earlier, and everyone would have been satisfied, but thats not what kubrik wanted. He wanted you to think about it some more. PS. this is a movie about ROBOTS, not ALIENS. It's obvious the creatures at the end are decedents of the robot race. Get with it, use your minds!! PPS I know it's all a joke and in good fun. No offense taken, and I hope none given :) Im suprised to find no one has commented on the fact that this would be funny EXCEPT, the ending written by Kubrik.

You summed up the discontinutites in the story line very humorously. By the way, I happen to love AI. It gives a peek into a possible future. As Arthur C. Clarke said :"The last machine we'll have to make is one that's smarter than ourselves." Machine intelligence should surpass us early next century in every measurable way. I thought AI was a visual treat, especially Rouge City. Dammit, I want to go there now! lol. And where's Gigilo Jane when you need her? Excellent job!

And bravo for Gigolo Joe! Spielberg couldn't find any notes on him from Kubrick's notes, (hint, hint,... he wasn't in Brian Aldiss' original short story, either!). And so, "I'm just singing in the rain, and looking for Gigolo Jane!" And Teddy says, "I'm NOT - a TOY!" Oh yes you are! But don't get me wrong, I do like many of Spielberg's creations. Even this remake of The Wizard of OZ where the story doesn't really matter, but the production does. Very funny, indeed! And bravo for Gigolo Joe!

Made me do a spit take into my Rice Krispies. Seriously, though, between this and "I, Robot" (I'm a huge Asimov fan and wanted to claw my eyeballs out at that one), I've lost nearly all hope that Hollywood can do robots without dumbing it down. In fact, before I started reading this site, I put up with a lot of crap movies, not even crap in a fun way, just hoping it would be good this time. Thanks, Rod, for making me realize that I had a right to expect better. Oh, and Haley Joel Osment made a deal with the devil. "I'm Robocock: dead or alive, you're cumming with me."
