Fifty Years of Shit Robots Matt Brown

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 don our robot-examining equipment and take a look at the 1971 made-for-TV movie, PAPER MAN. It has an amazing cast but will we like the cut of the robot's jib?
 
WARNING! The S**t-bomb is used but nothing more

The fourth in our series where we try and palm off old episodes as something new and exciting. So, it's THE ATOMIC AGE PART 4, where we chat about films that were created in the shadow of the Oppenheimer bombs. Today, it's a movie from 1954 featuring a jingle-tapped robot, TARGET EARTH. Enjoy!
