Science fiction movies are a type of film that is both scientific and fictional.especially American science fiction movies,which are loved by audiences all over the world because of their dazzling special effects and thought-provoking connotations.Science fiction movies have many sub-genres,and movies with robots as the protagonist are one of the most important movies in these sub-genres.Robots are not only an existing technological product,but also an image of "others" relative to humans.They currently exist in many fields of different disciplines."Robot" as an emerging concept appeared late,but in traditional folk tales and myths and legends,images of man-made objects appeared long ago,and these image subjects similar to robots began to appear in literary works.As these literary works were adapted into movies,the image of the robot gradually jumped out of the text and jumped onto the screen.Since then,with the development of the robotics industry and artificial intelligence technology,film and television creators have begun to create a richer and diversified image of robots,which not only achieved artistic innovation,but also reaped substantial market profits.Sci-fi movies with robots as the protagonist are an important embodiment of robots in literary works.By studying the image of robots in science fiction movies and analyzing the construction of robot images in movies,we can see the consciousness of movie creators and the social reality reflected by them.This article focuses on the analysis of the construction of the robot image in American science fiction movies and the social development reflected behind it,as well as the value discussion on the research of the robot image.First,this article combs the development process of the robot image in American science fiction movies.Then,this article explains how the robot image in American science fiction movies is constructed from the four aspects of the body,gender,function,and intelligence of the robot image.On this basis,this article analyzes the multiple evolutions behind the image construction of robots in American science fiction movies,including the evolution of science and technology and the change of social "ecological".Finally,this article discusses the value of robot image research in American science fiction movies,reflects on robot image construction and technological evolution,and puts forward the myth of robot image construction and the relationship between man and machine.
