This has to be a remake of that Teilight Zone ep Steel right? Where Lee Marvin owns a piece of shit boxing robot that craps out so he has to get in the ring and fight a real Robot or someone he loves dies? Something like that. It might be good? Is Jackman as cool as Marvin?


that's not a real question by the way, Jackman is NOT cooler the Lee Marvin.

Allegedly yes. Which means this is superficially the third Twilight Zone movie.

With likely a bit of The Champ / Iron Giant thrown in as well.

Presuming that the actual Twilight Zone movie is one, what is the second?

I love the Lee Marvin episode. I think based on the trailer he's not climbing into a robot here. But I love that storyline.
