As part of our 26th season of Pick Six Movies, Domo Arigato, we are looking at six movies all about robots. For our second episode of this season, we are venturing into deep space with quippy robots, unclear protagonists, and a crazy German intent on defying the very laws of science and good movie-making.

Ep 165Pick Six Movies: S26E01: Heartbeeps

It’s a new season of Pick Six Movies, and we are getting cozy with our future robot overlords. We’re looking at six movies all about robots and what better place to start than with a movie that almost no one has seen, 1981’s Heartbeeps! How could a movie starring Andy Kaufman and Bernadette Peters with music by John Williams be this big a stinker? Is Andy Kaufman-bot ready to be a father? And is the movie really just wandering in the woods? These questions and more answered on a new episode! 00:00:00 – 00:01:14 – Welcome to the Show with Bo 00:01:15 – 00:33:14 – Andy Kaufman and the Story of Heartbeeps with Chad 00:33:15 – End – Discussing Heartbeeps with the Boys Thanks for listening and be sure to subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Pandora, iHeartRadio, Podchaser, Google Podcasts, and on Android here.

Season 25 of Pick Six Movies is called Holiday Road, a season all about the joy of the road trip. And now we slam on the brakes to pick up this unwelcome traveler, 2007’s make of The Hitcher from the goons who did remakes of The Amityville Horror and The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. And it’s just as dumb as it sounds. Let’s ask the burning questions: Is Sean Bean too handsome to be a hitcher? How much can one girl poop? And how does this movie make every bad decision it can?
