Robocop
Helen and I finally got an afternoon / evening together and figured, what the Hell, it's time to hit that precarious reboot slot called Robocop.

After the almost pitch perfect performances of the preceding movies of Marvel's phase two, surely it's about time for a mis-step? Given that Captain America: The First Avenger was, in my humble opinion, one of the weaker phase one movies. I must admit that I went in to this movie prepared to be severely disappointed. However, I am pleased to report that this was very much not the case.
Okay... Before you all hunt me down through my IP address and stab me, please know that I thoroughly enjoyed this film. I also love pretty much everything that Pegg/Frost/Wright have ever even sneezed on. So, please don't take the things I'm about to say as meaning that I think they are shit/should die/will never watch anything from them again. Because that is just not the case.
That being said, I humbly present my thoughts on The World's End:
This is an essay by my wonderful NerdVsWorld co-host Brendan.
It was written as a part of his degree and we thought it would be nice to share it with the rest of the world.
In a nutshell it is a comparison of Philip K Dick's novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep and Fear Factory's concept album Obsolete.
This list of films is compiled from responses to the thread on our facebook page, plus those suggested by guests on our NerdVsWorld show.
Basically we had to suggest 5 films off the top of our heads that we thought everyone needed to see.
I've removed any duplicates but added the number of times each one has been voted for.
I'll be updating it as and when new films are added.
