Real Steel
What's everyone take on this? Personally I like the idea of watching robots beat the crap out of each other.

I liked robot wars it was an example of Darwinian evolution.
Series 1 was the first generation when you had many varied designs then
some that worked best got copied and refined.
Though if you were to build a fighting robot, why the hell would you make it bi-pedal?

speaking of robo movies
does anyone else remember a couple of 80s films of a similar vein - Robot Jox and Crash & Burn? Both pretty ropey, but some geeky value.

Those films made a thousand battle tech geeks cry out in pain...
I like the whole "vertical tank" concept but part of me keeps thinking it's just not that practical a way of dealing out destruction.

Cos your kids will see the trailer and think it's awesome
then nag you to death until it's easier to go and see the damned thing than listen to another word
