"Robocop"

How the hell are there no "Robocop" threads in KMC? Anywho, this is Peter Weller's pride and joy, who most recently appeared in "The Order", so yes, he is still alive.

Any fans? 2 and 3 are crap, thanks to early stage animatronic/CGI robots, but the original is priceless.

I think this movie is really cool. I think its funny how the main bad guy from the movie is now on "That 70's Show"
Didn't see that coming

The original was great. I never got around to seeing the others and I really have no eagerness to.

Well, 3 doesn't even have Peter Weller, so I never bothered.

Three had the model for the factor 5000 sunblock advert naughty

A sequel without the original actor... 😘

2 was ok at the time imo, it was good enough...

robocop 1 was one of the best sci fi movies ive ever seen, its view of the future was so well conceived and portrayed...

and so many movies copied its style... starship troopers(love that movie) for one...

That's because the two movies were directed by Paul Verhoeven. He also did "Total Recall", but the two movies first mentioned had a really strong underlying social message. Especially "Starship Troopers", holy shit, the Nazi regime innuendoes were literally smacking you in the face.

😆 yeah i know...

I haven't seen the 2nd Robocop, but I didn't really like the 3rd Robocop. The 1st one was very good.

my friend loves robocop soo much..
he cries all the time when he watches them!
lol...how many are there?

3 Cinema movies- 1 (Superb)
2 (A good attempt,very violent but a bit souless and preachy.)
3 (Toned down violence and little kids programming ED-209 😘 )

Then there was a series (Total garbage poo from the devil's-formulaic-non-violent-non-humoured-non-robocop-feeling-anus!!!!)
Robocop was a puss in it, OCP were caring 'good guys' and none of the adult humour was left....!!! puke puke

A cartoon series(Never saw it myself).

And the 'Prime directives' movies realeased in 2000... (4 parts)
This was much better than the series in regards to violence, social commentary,OCP being evil again (Hooray!) and humour, but was mired by overuse of slow-mo whenever the action kicked off, and a couple of lame concepts.... Worth checking out though... 🙂

"Can you flyyyyyyyy Bobby....?" 😆

Rocky would kick his shiny metal ass back to whever the hell he came from.

Robocop kicked ass, I love that dirty, grimy, no shit taking atmosphere.

First movie kicked ass.

Totally agree, couldn't explain how awesome it is better myself.

I'll buy that for a dollar! Robocop kicked ass, nice sarcastic view of the doomed near future. Good action and effects.
Did you know Verhoeven at first just laughed at the idea and threw the script in the garbagecan? His wife pulled it out and made him reconcider, not a bad move eventually.
The second part was decent, a cool badguy and some sort of interesting developments. The third movie sucked big time, Robo acted like some toy that comes along with cornflakes.

Dont know how they turned such a good movie into some of the worse sequals.

Look at The Crow. Same thing happened.

Indeed! The first was unbelievable, but the scripts of the other 2 could only be put to use as toiletpaper.
