Outer Limits Love: Love Me

from Confessions of a Closet Romantic · host Poppy

Send us Fan MailI don't often read or watch sci-fi stories, but add in a romance and I'm there. I have a specific kink for stories about human-robot love, android love, any kind of machinery that takes on human characteristics and can hug. Forbidden Planet is my jam, I, Robot and RoboCop freak me out a bit, but movies that ask questions about our essential humanity by transferring our ideal characteristics – and our flaws and romantic blunders – onto machines are some of my favorite types of romances.https://www.confessionsofaclosetromantic.com"In here, we can create a world just for us."
