Steven Spielberg made a film
A.I., A.I., O!
And in this film he had some bots
A.I., A.I., O!
With bot-bot here and a bot-bot there,
Here a bot, there a bot, everywhere a bot-bot
Steven Spielberg made a film
A.I., A.I., O!

Steven Spielberg made a film
A.I., A.I., O!
And in this film he had Haley Joel Osment starring as a kid-bot
A.I., A.I., O!
With an act-act here, and an act-act there,
Here an act, there an act, everywhere an act-act
This is getting really dull,
A.I., A.I., O!

Well . . . that didn’t go as planned but we are in fact discussing Spielberg’s film “A.I.”, a film conceived of by Stanley Kubrick dealing with the nature of natural versus artificial intelligence and asking the questions “Can a robot love?” The film also asks if a human could love a robot, so you can tell this film predated 4Chan and some of the more questionable corners of the internet where that question has been emphatically answered in the affirmative. Please don’t confirm this for yourself. I beg you. Anyway, give a listen while Max-o-tron and Mike-bot discuss. A.I., A.I. . . . oh.

Snoogins! Me and Lunchbox got us a brand new series: “’Cuz I Wanna (and You’re Gonna Like It),” where we drop insights on movies that we’re watching just ‘cuz we wanna watch them, and we wanna talk about them and we haven’t watched or talked about them yet. Dang straight! And we’re kicking it off with Max’s favorite Kevin Smith flick, 1999’s “Dogma.” This is a simple, light-hearted film that deals with uncomplicated, uncontroversial topics like the nature of God, free will, whether Jesus was White, whether Jesus had siblings, and does God really take the form of a lovely Canadian Alt-Rocker? You know, stuff no one could ever possibly find upsetting or difficult to discuss rationally. Join us and see if we can manage it. Snootch to the mother-f’in nootch!

We come to the close of our spoooooky series “I Vant to Vatch Your Feelm!” with a real whiz-bang of a film: vampires . . . in . . . SPAAAAAACE! Join Captain Frank N. Stein on the star-ship “Nosferatu” as he and his valiant crew, Lt. Renn Fields, Commander Mina O’Harker, and Medical Officer Dr. Acula (“I get it; I don’t like it”) battle the evil Van-Helsoids in a conflict that rages throughout time and space, boldly going to weird, fresh worlds, meeting exotic alien creatures, and draining their blood! Ok, no, this has nothing to do with the actual movie we’re watching, which is a vintage 60’s Italian science-fiction offering, but c’mon, Hollywood! I’m HANDING you your next hit franchise! Have you people call my people! Well, have them call my pony, anyway. In the meantime, set your vamp-o-beams to “exsanguinate” and give a listen!
