The Mothership: Best robots in pop culture

Kelly Lawler

When it comes to robots in pop culture, do you like yours cute and huggable, like Wall-E and Baymax, or ready to take over the world like the Terminator and the Cylons?

That's the question that USA TODAY's Kelly Lawler ( @klawls ), Brett Molina ( @brettmolina23 ), Carly Mallenbaum (@ThatGirlCarly) and Brian Truitt ( @briantruitt ) tackle in this week's episode of The Mothership podcast, in honor of Neil Blomkamp's robo-movie, Chappie,hitting theaters.

We also react to the new trailer for Avengers: Age of Ultron, (which we watch for the first time live on the podcast!) and what the new footage in the trailer could mean for the film and the cinematic universe. And we couldn't help but mention the fact that a certain Avenger is hosting Saturday Night Live this weekend.
