One of my biggest fears is that robots will one day try to take over the world and make us their unwilling servants–thanks, Arnold Schwarzenegger. So when one of my favorite comedians, Robin Williams, decided to play a robot in the movie Bicentennial Man, it totally freaked me out. Yes, I know he played a friendly, non-red-eyed robot who wasn’t after anyone named Sarah or John, but a metal (not the music genre) version of Robin Williams just doesn’t sit well with me. Then when he made ANOTHER robot movie, I seriously thought the man was out to get me. But he did finally win me back over with the movie Happy Feet, because who could stay mad at a singing and dancing penguin? Not I. Now Williams has gone back to his stand-up comedy roots with a multi-city tour—his first since 2002’s highly acclaimed Weapons of Self-Destruction. Robin Williams will be at his finest 8 p.m. Friday at the Nokia Theatre in Grand Prairie. Tickets are $59 to $99. Call 972-854-5111 or visit nokialivedfw.com for more info.
