Does anyone agree?

I completely agree. In fact, whenever I've been in a conversation about the movie and we are trying to get on the same page about what it is, someone (either myself or the other party) always uses the character in Short Circuit as a reference. In fact, my brother last night used the robots actual name when he was talking with my parents.

Saw it--loved it!

Even though I said we'd wait until opening weekend was over, we ended up seeing it yesterday because the Boy and the kid could not wait.

I think it depends on how old the kid is. Ours is only 3, so all he pays attention to is the robot. I enjoyed the themes, and am glad that Disney/Pixar went that route.

Makes me want to go rent "Hello, Dolly!" now!
