Mr. Robot is an addictive anti-hero drama dominating the media cycle this summer, pulling off an innovative virtual reality mini-episode and cornering the audience of those interested in hacking, artsy filmmaking techniques, and narration-heavy storytelling. But isn't it strange that there are no robots in a show called Mr. Robot?We could have protagonist Elliot (Rami Malek) infiltrate a secret Evil Corp lab that's working on drones or killer androids, saving the day by hacking them to destroy themselves? Or maybe face off against a mysterious artificial intelligence? It wouldn't even have to be a full episode, just a subplot, perhaps to gain the trust of a new mercenary hacker squad or something.Luckily, there are still eight more episodes including a two-part finale in which the show has the opportunity to give us the robots we need. Here are some robots animated by a few of our favorite GIF artists, including A.L. Crego, Uwe Heine Debrodt, and J.D.
