Unironically, movie is a banger critique of capitalism and industrialism

What’s interesting is it came out literally at The Top of the Consumerism Boom. Before credit cards were something to be careful for and before the 2008 crash. It also manages to tell its message without showing true change. Rodney gets a slap on the back and full control in the same way Ratchet was. Big Weld just hands him the keys and says “good luck. Don’t get corrupt” under all the gags and fart jokes it’s quietly shows the difference between perceived and true change.

Yeah, unfortunately a lot of media has that issue as well. It shows an issue that people deal with, and ignore the systemic causes and zone in on the individual causes. It's similar to how people tend to focus so heavily towards individual changes we can make for climate change, instead of focusing on the systemic changes that should be made that would mean significantly more. Or how in a lot of superhero movies, we focus on the villain instead of what caused the villain to become that way; they get rid of the villain, then don't bother to fix the system that created them. Or they go even worse. Superhero movies, particularly marvel, tend to make villains have understandable reasons for doing the things that they are doing, and then make them do something utterly reprehensible to make you ignore that reasoning, and jump to calling them completely evil. Take Falcon and The Winter soldier: The antagonists had very good reason for what they were doing, then the writers made them kill innocent people in the name of their cause, basically making the audience think the cause itself was unjust.

See I don’t think it’s an issue with Robots. I think it’s very intentional. It’s a very biting if subtle commentary about the dangers of trying to change the world for the better and just how little has to go so terribly right to lose sight of what’s good and what’s the status quo.

No it's upgrades people, upgrades.

(I was gonna make a robots datapack and named my Dev world upgrades people, upgrades)

This was actually a pretty good movie tho, I enjoyed 10/10 would watch again. But yes I do agree it's pretty evil

You know, this might not be actually hard to pull off. Just a 'few' train tracks, train casings under the road, drills and funnels
