Trivia
When Mai asks 7723 what the weapon in his arm is, he replies that it is a "phased plasma rifle in the 40 gigawatt range" in reference to the scene from The Terminator (1984) in which the titular character tries to buy a similar weapon in a typical 80s gun store, which of course, they don't carry.

No robots were harmed in the making of this film. The filmmakers do not believe that robots are evil. They are good. Definitely good. Super super good. In fact, when the robot overlords take over we will be the first in line to bow at their benevolent feet. Or wheels -- or whatever. See more »Soundtracks
