[edit] Licensing

This image is a screenshot from a copyrighted film, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by the studio which produced the film, and possibly also by any actors appearing in the screenshot. It is believed that the use of a limited number of web-resolution screenshots

for identification and critical commentary on the film and its contents
on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information.

To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline, as well as the source of the work and copyright information.

[edit] Fair use for Three Laws of Robotics

This image is a reduced-resolution still frame from the 1999 movie Bicentennial Man, which was based upon science-fiction stories by Isaac Asimov and, secondarily, Robert Silverberg. Although the film received a mixed critical reception, it is notable for being one of the most faithful cinema adaptations made from Asimov's work. In the scene depicted here, the android NDR-114 has just arrived at the Martin household, and "Andrew" is using his built-in holographic projector to explain the Three Laws, the fundamental rules encoded in his positronic brain to control his behavior.

No free or public-domain images from this film have been located, and since any complete treatment of the Three Laws should address their use in film, an illustration of the scene which sets them forth is entirely germane. The presence of this image—processed as it has been—in the Three Laws article does not materially affect the copyright holders' ability to profit from the original work.
