one of the best movies of the century
Spielberg's streak in the early 2000s was fucking outrageous. A.I., Minority Report, Catch Me If You Can, War of the Worlds, and Munich all in a span of 5 years. God damn.

Literally Pinocchio in a futuristic dystopian setting, and a garbage one at that.

As the OP correctly stated, A.I. is a masterpiece and if you don't like it you're almost definitely a pleb. It's Spielberg's best movie.

He is right though, there is no character development of David in AI, he essentially remains the same throughout the entire movie, and the movie itself cheaply plays on emotions by using items we associate our childhood with. Bicentennial man is about the growth of a robot into a self-conscious being seeking humanity.
I swear to God, Spielberg is the worst thing to happen to cinema.

If you watch the movie, they shove the Pinocchio analogy down your throat in like, the first five minutes and then keep bringing it up for the whole movie.
The difference was that while the kid was the protag, he was basically just the observer of a fucked up world. The audience saw the setting and world for how fucked up it was through the kid's eyes but the kid was never an...actor (best word I can come up with). He was like Commander Shepard where he says "I have to go" in every interactoin while the real characters go through their struggles with or without him. They say their piece to the kid, then they're gone.
A.I. was basically a "what-if" video essay meant to be ~thought provoking~ and soapboxes a little but never really goes in depth into any of the themes and ideas it brought up. Because there was no real story or plot or resolution, it ended the movie on one of the biggest cop-outs in the world of cop-outs to pretend the bad ending was a happily ever after. It was ridiculous. When I first saw the movie, I was so fucking disappointed because I fucking loved sci-fi movies talking about AI but this movie in its glory, felt more like a middle-finger to the genre instead of an addition.
The real reason nobody talks about AI because there's nothing to talk about.
It's not because it's "niche" or "hidden" or "underappreciated" or any of that nonsense. It's just a long chain of "okay.jpg". If you feel like burning an hour or two out of sheer boredom, sure it's worth a watch, otherwise, you can basically pretend it never existed.

at least you don't get a literal deus ex machina in that film forcing a happy ending with a retarded premise
>we resurrected your mother but she will die in 1 day so you got to lie in the bed and die with her together for dramatic purposes
the prostitute/dancer robot was a better and more interesting character than David.

>Tfw Teddy is in a museum as we speak.
Can't remember which museum it is. But I'm glad he's being preserved.

Agree. Not a single memorable quote or definitive scene.
