    Nov 11 2024

    Between Metropolis and Star Wars lies a 50 year wasteland of terrible movie robots. Every week we rate the robot from a movie, if it gets a score of 7 out of 10 then we say that it is not a shit robot. Today, we look at LOGAN'S RUN from 1976. A movie with a properly shit robot. So shit, in fact, that it might be quite good.

    Nov 4 2024

    Between Metropolis and Star Wars lies a 50 year wasteland of terrible movie robots. Every week we rate the robot from a movie, if it gets a score of 7 out of 10 then we say that it is not a shit robot. Today, just when you think you're out, the Westworld franchise pull you back in. It's FUTUREWORLD, a paranoia-fueled 70s movie where almost everyone is a robot.
