Episode 20 Notes
We previously discussed (and disagreed about) Chappie in “Episode 11: 2015 Year in Review”
For a little background on why Die Antwoord play themselves in the film check out “Learn How Die Antwoord Ended Up Starring in Neill Blomkamp’s Chappie”
Short Circuit (1986) featured white dude Fisher Stevens as an Indian man
Robocop (1987) came out around the same time so people definitely had robots on the mind back then
Yes, Short Circuit had it’s own song, “Who’s Johnny” by El DeBarge
Hugh Jackman is Wolverine
For more of our thought about Fifty Shades of Grey (2015) listen to “Episode 17: Fifty Shades of Grey”
Chappie opens in the USA on March 6, 2015
