Similarly, Robocop, or any sort of cyborg, or any life form animated and controlled by a robotic force (IE nanomachines), begs that question.

Gigantor.
He's mostly known as an anime robot but there was a live action movie made of him so he counts. I loved him as a child.

It may sound harsh, but I don't think we can class cyborgs - such as the Borg and the Cybermen - as robots. After all, we don't class Lee Major from The Six Million Dollar Man as a robot, do we?
Johnny 5, still love that movie
Wall-E and
the Terminator, R2D2 and Robocop.
Excellent choices! "No disassemble Number 5!"
Although he's not in any movies, I vote for Kryten 2X4B-523P. Any robot that can break it's original programming and grow beyond what it was designed for is tops in my book. I'd vote for Skynet except it's computer, not a robot.
For movie robots, I guess I'll go with Voltron. "Form feet and legs..."

"The List" is to satiate the target demographic.
Others would beg to differ.
At least Gort is on the list.
Klaatu barada nikto!
Pris from Blade Runner. Mmm, mmm, goodness. Just don't let her wrap her legs around your head.
Sorry Cave Man, the replicants in Blade Runner aren't robots, they're organic: press materials from the film's release described them as "A genetically engineered creature composed entirely of organic substance".
