Like Oscar nominee Shark Tale, the creators behind Robots thought it would be funny if they made the film's characters resemble the real-life people providing their voices. So be prepared to see Rodney Copperbottom (Ewan McGregor) waving his mechanized schlong around; Cappy (Halle Berry) plow her hovercraft into a bunch of innocent robots and flee the scene; and Fender (Robin Williams) make us all wish that Mork from Ork was merely a distant memory from the worst-ever episode of Happy Days.
