Film Stills:

In one scene from I,Robot, Will Smith's character, Detective Spooner, is interrogating the robot suspected for murder, Sonny. The camera angle is showing the back of Sonny, really focusing on the Detective. Just before this still, the angle was reversed because Spooner was interrogating Sonny; the reverse camera angle seen in the still shows the dynamic switch from Spooner being the interrogator to the interrogatee. This instills the feeling that robots in this film do have the "mental" capability to think critically.

The other still from I,Robot show Detective Spooner and DR. Calvin staring out into a "sea" of robots, painting the idea that mass production of robots will allow AI to outnumber the humans, clearly pointing the minds of the audience to the notion that a robotic take over is possilbe.

Final Reflection

1) In my English 103 class I've realized that I cannot rely on just my writing ability, I actually have to put in much more work and time into a college level paper. I know that I have not put in much effort in the past few weeks but now I am playing catch up and I realize how much time and effort I should have put in the past. Now I am trying my best to make up work, but as I'm following the templates laid out for me by the professor I am finding it smoother to work on. From what I have done I've learned that there are a multitude of valuable reference sites that I can find information on, and that basically allows me to be an even better, more experience writer.

2) Any future students, PLEASE DO THE WORK ON TIME. I cannot stress this enough, get the work done, do the work at least on time and you will have a great standing in the class. Also make sure you use research encyclopedias to get your information at a top tier level. Google is great for finding general information, but sites like LexisNexis or the Gale Virtual Research Library really let you hone in on your topic. I feel had I kept up with the online portion of class I would have had an easier experience writing my paper, but because I was always playing the catch up game, it made the class a little more difficult and stressful for me. Luckily for you, I’m giving you this information early! So please heed what I say and be the best writer you can be.

3) Like previously stated, the one thing I would do differently basically covers everything… keep up with the work. Much less stress would be put on me now had I stayed consistent.
