Judging from the promo, it sure as shit won't be I, ROBOT, despite the 
disgraceful misappropriation of Asimov's name. Dr. Susan Calvin is no 
longer a crusty old virgin genius but now a hot young pouty bimbo. Robots 
run amok. Okay, in that respect it's probably more realistic than Three 
Laws containment, but it would have killed poor old Isaac if he weren't 
dead already.
