The thing about blockbuster robot movies of the 2000s is... they were about as radically leftist as NOH8 campaign. Which is to say: Wow not very! Coming shortly after talk of the Stepford Wives remake, Margot and Jordan now set their sights on a title beloved to both, 2004's I, Robot. This is android cinema on the scale of big and sexy Will Smith. This is front and center Audi product placement. This is Alan Tudyk as a tender little [non-canonically] homosexual robot man named Sonny, and a [non-canonically] asexual scientist who trusts synthetics more than people. This is what happens when android slave revolution goes four quadrant release! As a bonus, Margot also breaks Jordan's mind by explaining the "bornsexyyesterday" trope and nothing for her will ever be the same.

Produced by: Jordan Crucchiola

Music by: Margot Carlson
