In this episode of the Haters, we want to talk about artificial intelligence, but actually all there is to talk about is misogyny and racism. That's right! We went to see the critically acclaimed and supposedly smart artsy technology thriller, Ex Machina.
Plus we brought in a guest who (unlike us) went to the movie with the intention of loving it, but instead hated it even more passionately than we did.

-1:05 flatulence 1
-2:25 Firehawk, figgering out the plot while parking the car, like a pro.
-4:24 if you only listen to the trailer and don't watch it, it looks like this movie is going to have the same themes as Her. But if you look at it, there is clearly some gross other stuff going on.
