I still don't see how people love Blade Runner. I loved Do Android Dream of Electric Sheep?, but Blade Runner was just meh. I'd suggest the book to anyone.
Besides, the androids (or replicants, or whatever you want to call them) really push the boundary of "robot". In the book they weren't even remotely mechanical. I suppose robots don't have to be mechanical (merely artificial), but it's still an interesting debate whether or not those androids were robots.
