The passenger sits to the left of the driver, not the right in the UK ...

[gladstonew]

@xAngelicFruitCakex I'm aware of that. That's why I made a joke about us sitting on the wrong side. Unless your comment is directed at my 9 yr old son for pantomiming a wheel during a spontaneous ad lib in the outtakes, in which case you're a cool guy.

[KingLegendary1]

actually its based off of a novel...

[gladstonew]

@KingLegendary1 actually its based on a twillight zone, but the appeal is clearly rockem sockem robots.

[KingLegendary1]

@gladstonew a book called steel is the twilight zone episode is based off of the book steel 1956 fantasy mag I saw it the twilight zone episode, you've already lost the argument..how do you feel?

[gladstonew]

@KingLegendary1 what argument? I was well aware of the Twilight Zone epi, when I made this. Do you not see the deliberate allusion to rockem sockem in the movie? Also in Steel doesn't the jackman character pretend to be a robot to battle a robot? What are you trying to prove?

iv watched real steal and its gr8!! but the advert is crap compared to it

[rilleolsson]

Your son is crazy talented. He deserves a lot more credit for some really impressive little performances in HBN.

@lispectorando Ugh, don't remind me, he did do the fountain, one of the most painfully tedious movies ever.

[miggie2099]

no one notice but me that someone named my penis donated money in the credits.

[detrius82]

Great to see you back, Gladstone!

[lispectorando]

I like your explanation: guys want to see this because they want to bone Huge Jack... I mean, Hugh Jackman. Not only the very idea is hot as fuck, it's the only logical explanation.

[lispectorando]

How can Jackman do The Fountain and then this?

[distensible]

go sick gladstone lad

[xAngelicFruitCakex]

Your son does a pretty good British accent. That's a gift.

[vadetatimus]

@TheKivKev yeah! fool idiot you idiot! stupid!

[vadetatimus]

GLADSTONE CONDONES CHILD ABUSE!!!

[molegoddess]

Well, it was better than half of the X-Men movies. Also, I'll go ahead and take that bullet for you, Gladstone, and have lots of sex with Hugh Jackman so you don't have to compromise your straight man persona. Don't worry, I'll describe it to you later in perfect detail so it'll be like you were there. Or, you could watch, I guess? That'd be ok too.

[TheKivKev]

stupid idiot real steel is a fantastic film you fool idiot

[sketch17ify]

stupid ass real steel rocks

[DINIELIKEIT]

No. Its way better than any other movie

[KingLegendary1]

a man fighting a robot, and ultimately getting brutalized but because he was once a boxer he gives it his all to win and I believe eventually he does manage knock the robots head off to some degree but again Twilight Zone never usually has a optimistic approach when it came to their selection of episodes, the negativity is what gave it a rather unique feature..

[KingLegendary1]

Thats exactly what I thought you'd say, honestly I'm bored but Yeah I see it, but the movie is a clear cut rip off of the short story, I mean Boxing isn't as popular as it was back in the 60s and early to mid 70s. Although the Rock and Sockem theme is somewhat present that's how we could interpret it but the only question I ask is why bother to critically think about a rather crappy hugh jackman movie? but for steel actually it was different but essentially the components are the same it was a
