Terminator Salvation may have been a letdown, but our week of celebrating the violence within every gadget—armed and sentient or ordinary and household, they’re all bloodthirsty—was a hit. Here’s a recap of the finer moments:

The question of which machine is deadliest of all-time has already been answered—but it’s the bonus round that will prove to be the most exciting matchup. Who would win in a battle between Wall-E and Johnny 5?
