It doesn't matter how many times I see, I don't think BigDog will ever be not creepy.

Yes! Yes. Hunters. Definitely.
All they need now is antimatter dart launchers.

That thing isn't anywhere near the uncanny valley--unless you're a cow, I suppose.
But yes, it is a bit strange to see our evolutionary betters in the making--by us.

I wasn't aware that the uncanny valley only applied to humanoid nonlife entities. The thing is still too life-like for a robot, thus why people are creeped the hell out by it.

Well, it depends on how you define it, I suppose. I've usually heard it used more specifically with "the closer it is to human, the freakier it is"--but if you made it broader, it could be "the closer it is to biological, the freakier it is."

Hahahaha. I was thinking those legs looked awfully human-like. And then they started dancing.

Until the end? The part where they got knocked over wasn't enough? Let alone the fact that their legs should be a dead give away.
