I'll say! How did _The President's Analyst_ not make the list?

There's no master list? I have to page through the whole thing just
to do a quick check on whether, say, Saturn 3 was omitted? :-o

Give me an easier way please :-)

Rather than just complain, I did parse through a couple of your pages
and found Saturn 3 and Wesworld represented.

I don't think Fantastic Planet belongs on that list, unless you know
something that I don't.

Are you putting on movies where robots make tiny cameos? If so, I
seem to recall a couple cheesy-looking service robots stupidly
restored to the Krypton scenes in the most recent "Superman the Movie"
DVD.

Superman: Doomsday? Nah.

Colossus: The Forbin Project was not included, though.

No, "Superman: the Movie," the one with Marlon Brando.

When I watched the DVD, around the time Brando was arguing with the
elders, or when Krypton was being destroyed, there were a couple
cheesy robots wandering around.

Having done a Google search, I'm now not sure this guy was supposed to
be a robot, but I could have sworn he also walked like a robot.
