So i finally got around to watching Robots (2005)
>In robot society, the way procreation works is that children are manufactured and then ordered and assembled by parents
>"See A Need, Fill A Need"
>What my dad needs is a living being with a subservient mindset that will follow orders and can perform most of his job for him
>Mr. Big Weld, here's my amazing new invention:SLAVERY!

This is possibly the most creative "meh" movie ever made

They could have made a sequel to this rather than another ice age

It bothered me a lot that there was a place in their big, shiny utopian city called the chopshop that just rounded up homeless people and murdered them and apparently everyone knew about it but didn't want to bother shutting it down

What's this even about? Anyone good at making funny meme analyses?

Some robot mechanic moves to the big city from his modest home and clashes with a society in which you either regularly upgrade (at an expensive price) or you're fucked because spare parts to fix you quickly stop being manufactured.

Healthcare should be free for everyone, so the hero starts providing unlicensed surgeries to hobos with no insurance in a shitty crack-den boarding house. Hilarity and pee/fart jokes ensue, resulting in class warfare

I never had any desire to see this movie 'til now.

I blanked the entirety of this movie out of my mind so I completely forgot this was part of the main conflict until reading about it on wikipedia one day.
It has a pretty good score though. John Powell is underrated and among the absolute best of the Zimmer proteges.

cease and desist

It makes a decent argument for trading medical licenses for certifications
The less I think about the meaning behind the movie and the more I treat it as just pretty visuals, the better.
It wasn't great, but it wasn't amazing. But you know what it really is? Fun.

Thanks for the info. Nice dystopian nightmare. So how does it end then, does the protagonist get scrapped?

The movie is actually about Michael Eisner and Roy Disney.
