Robocop vs the 300

I thought Robocop could be hurt if damage was applied through the mouth?

A good dagger though the upper mouth into the brain.

Spartans of all characters have the skill and creativity to attempt such a feat.
It's all they have.

Otherwise it's a spite thread. Robocop could just kill them slowly with his bare hands.

a rubber face? why would they recreate the recreate the bullet hole? i think you and robtard are being overly presumptuous based on little/no evidence.

unless you accept the plothole fail of robocop 3 of course

A reminder of the avenging angel thing? (pure speculation on my part)

Which we have to.

Along with the testimonial of the quote from 2.

I know I had read it somewhere as well and it makes the most sense, the facial skin preserved to "honor Murphy". Considering they built a body that can survive thousands of bullets, explosions and falls from skyscrapers, but they left his mouth as a blatant weak-point? OCP doesn't seem nearly as inept as The Galactic Empire, imo.

When the visor is removed, only Murphy's face (which is grafted onto a completely mechanical skull) from the top of the neck up is exposed

RoboCop implies that only Murphy's face and brain was used in the construction of RoboCop, as Morton states that "total body prosthesis" was an agreed-upon parameter. It is unclear in the first two films whether or not RoboCop's human face is merely a replica of Murphy's, as it contains a scar where Boddicker shot him in the head, though he tells Murphy's wife, in RoboCop 2, that "they made this to honor him." After touching it, she says, "it's cold."

-
In RoboCop 3, Dr. Marie Lazarus, RoboCop's chief technician, stated that Murphy's face was indeed transplanted onto a mechanical skull, and that it is not a replica. In the first film it is mentioned that RoboCop eats a "rudimentary paste that sustains his organic systems."

-

In RoboCop: Creating a Legend, a bonus feature on the RoboCop: 20th Anniversary DVD, it is stated that Murphy's face was removed from his corpse and implanted on the cyborg's head to give RoboCop a sense of identity. This psychological disruption RoboCop may have experienced is explained from the basis that a person whose memory has been erased would still possess the memory of being human and would suffer a psychotic breakdown if he saw the reflection of a robotic image instead of his original image of humanity.

k but you realize in that scene he was lying to her, right?

he said he wasnt murphy and that his look was artificial.

as far as "its cold" it could simply mean that he has a low body temperature. doesnt really mean anything.

I took that as his mind/soul angle, telling her that he was no longer Murphy the man inside the machine. So she could cope. 'My body and mind are machine now, Murphy's dead.' Despite the truth being that Murphy(mind/soul) was still inside the machine.

IMO, the facial implant makes more sense than him having a almost full human head. Bonus feature (which I need to watch now) states this.

Anyone still hanging on this mouth/arrows/spears thing?

That's the exact scene I remember.
And the punk couldn't make the shot. Not like a bullet directly into the mouth would help anyways.
Considering he caught a bullet a spear through the mouth isn't plausible.

I'm wondering now how many bullets he has? Can he run out before he kills all of them?

Can the surviving Spartans just run around the arena Life of Brian style?
Didn't Robocop need to recharge eventually? I know I'm grasping at straws. 🙂

He recharges from his Jetpack. (which has been gimped)

And how long did Robocop's energy reserves last?

300 wins in a landslide.

His gun somehow held what appeared to be over 50 rounds, iirc. It's the scene when he's in the cop station's firing range. He fired like 20 burst of 3 rounds.

IIRC, Robocop was described as a cyborg and as per the movie, the cyborg was defined as a combination of robot and human. Therefore Robocop couldn't be all metal otherwise he'd be just pure robot. Of course, I could be mistaking this for another movie.

What remained of his brain, his nervous system, some organs and facial skin are all organic. That would make him a Cyborg.

Robocain by all appearances only had the human brain, he was a cyborg too.

Robocop isnt all Robot. Limbs were Replaced but his torso still had, at least in the first one, Organic parts. That is the whole point of being a 'Cyborg'. If you were all machine you would be a robot.

But to honestly think that the 300 would bum rush Robocop is ridiculous. They would see one man with no idea what he is. Maybe they understand he has armor on and would go for the face but I dout they would be able to actualyl get to him.

Machine gun, Flamethrower, handgun, etc? Robocop is armed to go against an army here. No way are those shields going to stop bullets when they barley stop arrows.

I say Robocop takes this one.

your apparent inside knowledge of "well trained soldiers" just standing there and asking "what is this magic?" while pooping themselves is impressive. again, you know so much. to continue this topic is just silly since you already answered it.

Your talent of putting words where there are none is impressive.
