These are live action films which generally center around 'giant robots' or 'battle mechs' as they may currently be referred to. Ever since the Japanese started making cartoons about giant robots, and perhaps it began with 'Mechagodzilla,' the world has been ever fascinated by gigantic killing machines usually piloted by human beings. Acting as a humungous suit of technological battle armor, 'giant robots' usually aren't robots in the sense of autonomous machines, but often, autonomous machines must be fought by human beings piloting machines of equal size, and it's a battle of humanity vs. colossal mindless computers with weapons. It's David vs. Goliath.
