Week 18

Watch a movie with a metal theme

This week sees another fantastic suggestion from one of our regualr challengers, Les Chappell. They suggested watching a movie with a metal theme.

What exactly is a metal theme? A movie with either the word "metal" in the title or a type of metal in the title for example gold (Goldfinger), silver (Under the Silver lake) or Bronze (The Bronze).

There are also movies starring actors that have a metal in their name, such as GOLDie Hawn or Ron SILVER.

You can also watch a movie with a metal being a prominent theme, for example the T-1000 in Terminator 2 is made of liqui metal, in The Full Monty a bunch of former steelworkers recently laid off take up a new hobby, or Edgar Wright's Hot Fuzz which is about a copper!

Suggestions

These movies are mentioned in the video as potential suggestions for the challenge.
