Automata Fun Facts
The word automaton comes from the Greek word automatos, meaning self-acting or self-moving, and ancient civilizations built mechanical devices that could perform simple tasks, like a toy bird that could flap its wings.
In the 18th century, Swiss inventor Jacques de Vaucanson created a life-sized mechanical duck that could eat, drink, and digest food, producing excrement, which amazed audiences and showcased advanced automata technology of that era.

Watched this in theaters. Was a fun popcorn movie. I didn't like it as much as the first movie though. The nostalgia moments are a lot of fun for me, but the first movie had a ton of those too.
I need to rewatch this and see if it moves from a like to a favorite for me. I forget about it, see it mentioned, and remember that it was way better than I thought it was going to be. This is a great one to watch if you haven't yet.
Finally got to see this in theaters - it's a lovely movie. One of the higher quality family-friendly sci fi movies in a LONG time. The part I liked least about the book was the humor - movie was the same. Which speaks to how good the adaptation was.
