Doom Metal Alchemist Posted February 19, 2021 Posted February 19, 2021 Cancer of the what? Can robots even get cancer? What is robot cancer? Is robot cancer basically rust?
Poof Posted February 19, 2021 Posted February 19, 2021 In 3001, Calculon stated that he was "all of history's great robot actors", naming David Duchovny, Acting Unit 0.8 and Thespa-mat as actors he has been. This would make Duchovny a Robot rather than a Human. However, the fact that Duchovny's head is on display at the Head Museum contradicts Calculon's statement. It could therefore be interpreted that: Calculon may be lying or exaggerating somehow, being the dramatic robot he is. An acting unit named after Duchovny was built, and this is the Duchovny who Calculon claims to be. Duchovny's presence in the background of the pilot may have been retconned. It may just be a satirical swipe at Duchovny's "robotic" acting. 2 1
