If you don't know who or what Robby the Robot is, he was the robot helper first featured on screens in the 1956 sci-fi movie, Forbidden Planet. The movie is also notable for starring Leslie Nielsen in one of his rare, early dramatic performances. Nielsen portrayed the Commander of the spaceship, Cruiser C-57D and later encounters Robby, along with his crew, on one of his missions to the planet Altair.

The movie is widely regarded in sci-fi circles and has become a cult hit over the years. It stands out above the rest of the run-of-the-mill 1950's sci-fi movies because of a great story (it's based loosely on Shakespeare's The Tempest), a great cast (Walter Pidgeon and Anne Francis also star) and great special effects for the era, created by Disney.
