Honest Trailers | Ex Machina

The entire plot of this film is a narrative version of the Yudkowsky Test, named after developer and researcher Eliezer Yudkowsky (he did a TED Talk if you're curious). The test goes beyond the Turing Test, you already know that the A.I. is an A.I. (they say this out loud in the film), the test here is that the A.I. is locked in a "box" (computer), with no access to a network, and it has to try to convince you to "free" it, connecting it to a network like the internet. If the A.I. manages to convince you that it's not dangerous and you should free it into the internet, the test succeeded. This is exactly the test that Nathan (Oscar Isaac) runs on Caleb (Domnhall Gleeson): he knows that Ava (Alicia Vikander) is an A.I. inside a robotic body, but the test is to see if Caleb STILL falls for her and tries to free her into the world. EDIT: I called him Alexander but his first name is Eliezer, my apologies, I misremembered.

"do androids dream of eclectic geeks" got me 😂😂

'No, sir! I didn't see you playing with your dolls again' Spaceballs was the best 😂

The dancing scene makes the movie worth watching by itself.

I will NEVER get tired of "This is Katana, she's got my back!" jokes.

"Is Oscar Isaac hot no matter who he's playing?" is the funniest rhetorical question I've ever heard.

Omg the “this is kiyoko, she stabs my back” line had me loling

The other question is why he made it so easy to lock himself out of his house. While the 3rd question is whether the helicopter pilot won’t be surprised to pick-up a completely different person than they dropped-off.

The closing names are always great but do androids dream of eclectic geeks is outstanding 😂😂

“Build this in a cave with a box of scraps” got me. 😆

I love the recurring gag from Katana's introduction 😂

Thank you for adding Emma Stone's character from Poor Things into the line up for "Born Sexy Yesterday"

The moral of the movie is: Remember to include that line in the three laws about "never, through inaction, allowing a human to come to harm." That's an important one.

You know what else is taking forever to get ready? An honest trailer for Daredevil Netflix series.

"if cats could text back, they wouldn't." clever 5:21

"Her knife pokes a hole in its victims." Caught me off gaurd in the best way. Bravo.

This is probably one of the best Honest Trailers for a good movie (dealing with bad movies is way easier)

Say "I'm gonna tear up the f*ckin' dance floor, dude!"

That one honest trailer that we thought was made but wasn't, and now is a gift to all.

"From internet merch store A24". I'm dead!
