Oh please, lets not get carried away. I too read I, Robot very young. It was my first sci-fi book, since then I've read all his fiction and plenty of his non-fiction. I even own a domain name that should have been used instead of irobotnow.com. If there is one thing for sure he [Asimov] wouldn't have been so up tight about following his plot or his laws rigidly. He always realised his fiction wasn't well suited to Hollywood. Read his intros, he'd have taken the money (and the increased book sales) and laughed all the way to the bank.
