  7. Some nerd bought Robby The Robot from Forbidden Planet for $5.3 million ".... The robot—which is obviously just a suit—was sold at the TCM Presents…Out Of This World auction through Bonhams New York, with the New York Post quoting its previous owner as saying that he’s “astounded by the result” but is also “sad to part with him.” ...The Post story doesn’t say who bought it, but there are references to the new owner putting it on display and intending to take care of it, so at least it’s not going to some creep who just wants to privately watch a very expensive robot slowly decay. We just hope that “putting it on display” doesn’t mean the new owner will fill the suit with actual robot machinery, bringing Robby to life so he can try and wipe out the human race—as all robots are wont to do." https://www.avclub.com/some-nerd-bought-robby-the-robot-from-forbidden-planet-1820694401 " It smashed the $4 million paid in 2013 for the Maltese Falcon statuette from the cinema noir classic of the same name to become the most valuable film prop sold at auction. .... https://nypost.com/2017/11/22/5-3m-robby-the-robot-is-worlds-most-expensive-movie-memorabilia/

The film contrasts the beauty of the film's stark winter landscapes with the potential for violence seen everywhere, both in nature and in the encroachment of humanity. As a result, the film refuses to take sides; the savagery of the pagan Kozliks is just as repellant as the violence of the king's Christian army, because brutality is a natural part of this world. ..... critics now considering it one of the greatest historical films of all time.
