  • 118. THE HAYES CODE
    Jul 29 2024

    Welcome to our 50 Years of Shit Robots Patreon cult. Today, you can have a sneaky peak of the chat we had after we'd watched Sleeper. It's a rambling but very interesting chat about the Hayes Code, queerness in cinema and smutty names. It is completely off the top of our heads and not meant to be an exhaustive chat on the subject. If you'd like to join the ROBOT CULT then follow the link below. Thanks so much.

  • 117. WHO?
    Jul 22 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 deep-dive into the 1974 movie, WHO?, as we try and work out if the robot is who the robot claims.

    WARNING! The S**t-bomb is used but nothing more

  • 116. WESTWORLD
    Jul 15 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 pack our suitcases and go on a lovely holiday to WESTWORLD. Will we get into a shoot-out with the Gunslinger?
