When does The Greatest Showman come out?
I've never seen Real Steel either, but I've seen the Twilight Zone episode it was based on, which was based on a short story by Richard Matheson, called 'Steel.'
"Portrait of a losing side, proof positive that you can't outpunch machinery. Proof also of something else: that no matter what the future brings, man's capacity to rise to the occasion will remain unaltered. His potential for tenacity and optimism continues, as always, to outfight, outpoint and outlive any and all changes made by his society, for which three cheers and a unanimous decision rendered from the Twilight Zone."
