Between Metropolis and Star Wars lies a 50 year wasteland of terrible movie robots. Today, we step outside our 50 year parameter to chat to a real-life robot screenwriter. MARK STAY wrote the fabulous 2014 movie, ROBOT OVERLORDS. He joined Matt and Stephen for a wonderful and wonderfully honest chat about what it's like to be on a set of your own movie, working with Sir Ben Kingsley, and why robots that look like kids are the creepiest of all.
WARNING! The S**t-bomb is sometimes uttered but nothing more.
