Description 19 Robocop - Robocop

Other Characters - [link]

~newtypeshadow and I powered through all three of the Robocop movies this weekend. I don't want to live in Detroit.

So much squandered potential in those movies. The first one set up a good premise with deciding whether Murphy was Robot or Cop... then in the second set up to be a great story about his family and whether or not he could be with them since he's kind of Murphy and kind of not but no... that plotline wasn't important enough to follow. Neither were any of the others except the one where the robocops fight and things explode. Then the third one was so tacky... and that girl is so wooden.

Man... we've long left the 80s back and are well inside the XXI century.... when are we going to get our robocops? At the very least we could use the ED-209. I know the army and marines would love to deply that one in Iraq and A-stan.

The 80s promised us so much. T_T

I LOVE Robocop...yay Murphy!

Yeah, I live in Michigan, but I don't particularly enjoy going down to Detroit.

From what I've heard, it didnt' need the Robocop press to start with and I'm sure since the eighties it hasn't helped out much.

"Come quietly or there will be... trouble."

Paul Verhoeven was at his very very best with this movie.

I pretty much agree with your comment, though the second one was pretty cool

Also I wouldn't want to live in robocop detroit, though the real detroid is proably a bit different

Here's hoping... because Robocop Detroit is pretty ridiculous

I loved the first RoboCop, it's the only one I've seen all the way and I saw it when I was 9 or 10. It started up my life long obsession with robots and science fiction.

The first two were great, but I was so disappointed in the third film

The second one was super awful and the third one moreso... the first one is the only one really worth its salt imho

I remember liking the second one, but I haven't seen it in awhile.

I'll never fault a person for liking a movie even though it's bad... I've watched the Silent Hill movie 100 times, I know what i'm talking about.

XD, I watched that a few times as well. Along with some other unbelievably terrible movies. I watch the SciFi, excuse me SyFy movies every Saturday and Sunday.

YES! I miss these movies( I didn't even know there was a three until I read tvtropes a month ago). Although, I still can't watch the scene where he gets shot. I remember it being much worse when I saw it as a child.

It's pretty bad... the gore is almost overwhelming in that movie.

The third one or the first is overwhelming?

The first one was overwhelming with the gore. The third one was dumbed down for kids. There's, like, no gore at all.

Boo! That's not Robocop...Mmhmm. It feels odd saying that. But yeah. I saw that movie as a kid. My God what was I thinking.
