Poll: Is WALL-E the greatest modern-day movie robot?

I know what you're thinking. Hasn't a rundown of cinema's top robots been done over and over again already?

But Pixar's new release WALL-E, about a 700-year-old trash-compacting robot who falls in love with a sleek probe droid called EVE, has received no less than 97 percent on review site Rotten Tomatoes.

Picture

Although the film's 97 doesn't touch the straight-up 100 percent received by "Toy Story 2," I do think it means the old lists of greatest movie robots deserves a brief revisiting.

But since the Robot Hall of Fame already exists, and presumably judges robots with actual criteria, I thought I'd withhold my opinion and allow others to make their voices heard.

So without further adieu, who is the best movie robot of the past two decades? Vote in our poll!
