Discovering good movies, one bad movie at a time


This week, Transformers: With King Arthur Now, Apparently? Whatever storms its way into theaters, and that’s gotten the Alternate Ending crew excited to think about robots. Killer Terminator-style robots; romantic WALL·E-style robots; and all the robots in between. And that’s why we’re going to be sharing our favorite robots in movie history on our next podcast.

From totally inhuman machines, like R2-D2 in Star Wars, to the more-human-than-human tragic killers of Blade Runner, robots of every shape, size, and function will be on our lists, and we’d love to hear you takes as well.
