Does "a steel colossus without a soul" imply that there's one with a soul? Just asking.

LOL guys! If it was just a body to contain the brain for reanimation why did the mad scientist give it the ability to zap people with rays from its eyes? Just askin'.

The mirror trick had already been used by Perseus and would have been copyright infringement.

KDP, you remind me of dvd I watched. It was one of the Final Destination movies, the one with the roller coaster. It had a feature where you could choose what action the characters took next and see what happened. In the beginning it gave you the choice of no one getting on the coaster in the first place. When chosen that option would result in the credits rolling because if no one dies on the coaster there really isn't a movie after that.
