S1E34 The Fly (1986)
Cronenberg, Goldblum, and a baboon named Typhoon star in a horror opera that "penetrates beyond the veil of the flesh." In true Cronenberg fashion, this movie is thought-provoking and gross.
S1E33 iRobot (2004)
Robots, robots everywhere! Will Smith plays a technophobic cop investigating a murder. I do believe the gentleman doth protest too much.

S1E30 Swordfish (2001)

S1E28 The IT Crowd (2006-2013)

S1E27 Gamer (2009)
Have you ever wanted to play Call of Duty, but for real? Yeah, me neither. They should make a sequel to this movie with Animal Crossing.
S1E26 Real Genius (1985)
Is there anyone cooler than Chris Knight? Except for Val Kilmer himself? I don't think so. A movie so good I wore out the tape.
S1E25 The Lawnmower Man (1992)
A movie so good, Stephen King sued to have his name taken off it.
S1E24 The Fifth Element (1997)

What happens when you take a time machine into a time machine? Weird and confusing stuff.
S1E21 Network (1976)
The newsroom has changed so much since 1976 but also has largely remained the same. We watch the eerily prescient Network.

S1E15 Demolition Man (1993)
The events of this movie take place less than a decade from now. We really need to step up, as a society, and get these "Franchise Wars" kicked off. Otherwise, Demolition Man will just seem silly.
