should i watch robocop y/n

saw this for the first time ever a few weeks ago, don't know why I wasted so many years

"Do I remember correctly that the woman whose rapist gets shot by Robocob through her dress gets a little turned on by the action?"

she runs over and gives robocop a hug, but she doesn't start dry-humping him (I don't think!)

this movie is great! i wouldn't go so far as to say it was a george lucas situation, but when compared to starship troopers, you can see how the circumstantial limits placed on a director often makes for a better movie. there's a lot of stories in the commentary track where they were gonna do something that would have totally ruined the movie, but they couldn't because of budget/time reasons.

Not so much dry humping as maybe smoothing out her dress and going "Ooooh, ROBOCOP!"

i do remember her looking down at her blood-splattered dress and seeing an expression like, 'i'm thankful and all this cyborg shot my rapist's balls off but i really liked this dress, too, it was $15 at ross.'

Maybe the "Ooooh, ROBOCOP!" came from me.

Yeah, the only expression i remember was he stepping back after realizing he's not a human.

murphy... its me...

*you

interesting gun porn trivia, this movie had that big sniper rifle (done up as the "cobra assault cannon") before the US army did

my post on it from action movie poll:

robocop - what a fuckin movie. so much can be said about why it owns, but i think one underrated aspect is ronnie cox's performance as dick jones. he has so much fun with that part.

someone earlier in the thread was shittalking the production design on robocop, which is just so wrong! the production work on robocop is really intelligent and awesome. first of all, brutalist architecture in a sci-fi setting = always good. the ed209 is a great example of the thought they put into things - its deliberately absurd, evoking something built by corporate committee and made to look intimidating at the expense of practicality, with redundant hydraulics, feet that can't fit on stairs, a body modeled after the huey chopper. this is underlined the first time we meet the ed and it literally growls like a lion. and what could be more haunting than robocop without his helmet, peter weller's face lost in all that machinery - what an amazing image! weller's got some great line readings in this movie, especially "they fix everything"

also, killer ending:

i just rewatched it last year myself - its as impressive as ever. i was surprised by the pathos of scenes like shooting jars of baby food, or weller's linereading of 'they fix everything'

also great usage of ford tauruses. that was really striking to me even when i was a child, because i was so used to 80s movies where everyone drove blocky sedans, i didnt even know they had cars that looked like the taurus back then

they were going to make some crappy bad syd mead knockoff "future" cars but had no money, so went with the tauruses instead, which police cars of today better resemble. they were also going to make some cheesy holo-cube storage media for the dick jones "nyeah nyeah" message to bob norton, but also ran out of money, and used a CD instead, which blu-rays of today better resemble. sometimes cheaper is better!

as Ford learned when they tried to retire the name, there must always be a Ford Taurus anywya

Yeah with that CD message i was like, holy shit, they predicted DVDs!

also leeza gibbons!
iphone with gps tracking! (if you look closely at clarence's robocop-finder, it's just a single blinking bulb affixed to a piece of prop-plastic)

Also some scenes it really looks like they took Robocop's helmet and just spray painted parts of it blue and purple.

um....just like we do in the future

they were going to make some crappy bad syd mead knockoff "future" cars but had no money, so went with the tauruses instead, which police cars of today better resemble.

I re-watched very recently and kept thinking, "man, these are the PERFECT cars for this movie."

you know who did have a crush on robocop was not lady bloodyskirt, but the tech who was all proud about saving his arm, then norton goes, lose the arm and she's really torn up about it, and later she gets drunk on new year's and plants a messy one on robo's visor.

Oh yeah! Robocop scoring with geek babe.

Also, Tauruses were actually cop cars, at least in my neck of the woods, during the 90s.

I probably mentioned the tweet upthread, but someone recently saying "Who knew Robocop's vision of the New Detroit would actually be rosier than what it actually turned out to be?"

the all black paint job rules (x-post)

best commercial:

even mr. snrub has an otm post in this thread.

i am watching this now tbh.

i want a copy of the criterion version buried with me.

I don't think there's been a more perpetually strong and obvious 'y' in the history of 'y/n' questions.

robocop!!!

robocopu

"Green Calx" contains samples from RoboCop: the dinosaur's popping eyes during the 6000 SUX TV ad, the ED-209 robot trying to go downstairs without success, and the sound of RoboCop browsing faces of criminals in the police archives computer.

remake is on TV tonight. There's a film I am never ever going to see

there’s actually a lot of interesting ideas in the remake

unfortunately none of them are intelligently explored
