@@TK-7193 Yes and no. The big 3 were at some point intentionally written to be not just female, but feminine as well. Lewis, is shown to be tough as nails, but she also shows her vulnerability and compassion, her loyalty and bravery, and best of all ... she's not just some generic love interest. It's the difference between Wonder Woman and Captain Marvel. One is a vibrant well written character, who is the embodiment of femininity, strength, and compassion. And Captain Marvel is a man with tits.

YES!! LOVE THIS MOVIE!! Before Peter Weller was cast as RoboCop, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Armand Assante, Michael Ironside, Rutger Hauer, Sylvester Stallone, and Tom Berenger were considered. Weller was cast as he was the only person to fit the suit. Weller lost 3 lbs a day from wearing the suit, which had an AC unit inside to prevent him from passing out. It was 110 degrees in Dallas Texas where they were filming. Weller couldn't eat any solid food except for Ice Cream, Yogurt, Oat Meal and PBJ Sandwiches. The film was a box office and critical success, making $60 million dollars against a $13 million dollar budget. It won the Oscar for Best Sound Editing. The stop motion animation effects were done by Oscar Winning VFX artist Phil Tippett whom did VFX for Star Wars, Willow, Jurassic Park, and Starship Troopers. It's now considered to be one of the best Sci-fi Action movies ever made.

In 2004, Peter Weller completed a Master of Arts degree in Roman and Renaissance Art at Syracuse University, and occasionally taught courses in ancient history at the university. In 2007, Weller began a Ph.D. at UCLA, in Italian Renaissance Art History. In 2013 he filed his dissertation and was awarded his doctorate in 2014.

Some trivia - Rob Bottin designed and built the Robo Suit and did the make up in the scene with Toxic waste, melting Emil. He's the same guy who did the crazy make-up effects in The Thing. The scenes with non walking ED-209 were all miniature models and the stop motion was done by Phil Tippet. He also did the dino stop motion in Jurassic Park.

Phil Tippet is legendary in his own right for being the co-creator of Go-Motion; which, was put to great use in Dragonslayer. Game of Thrones was inspired by Vermithrax from Dragonslayer, definitely one of the coolest realistic ideas for a dragon.
7:00 In the Falklands War of 1982, Lieutenant Robert Lawrence of the Scots Guards was shot in the back of the head by an Argentinian sniper with a 7.62mm round. It shattered his skull, and 45% of his brain flew into the air and was lost to the winds. Not only didn't he die, but he didn't even lose consciousness. He survived five or six hours on the mountainside, a one hour helicopter ride, eight hours in triage at the field hospital, and rudimentary surgery. He is still alive today and retains both his personality and his memory. Headshots do kill, but not necessarily. Or at least not straightaway.
That shop robber must be freakishly strong to hold his mashine gun steady while Robo bends the pipe with one hand.

Paul Verhoeven has made some great movies. Among them are what is called his Sci Fi must watch trilogy - "RoboCop" (1987), Total Recall (1990), and "Starship Troopers" (1997). Please consider reacting to the other two - you will love them.

Great reaction/review guys! RoboCop has been my favorite movie for almost 30 years, since I seen it when I was 6 years old. With every time I watch it, I find some new layer to the depth of this movie. I can't get enough of seeing this movie bring joy to people watching it for the first time. I'm so glad you guys seen the heart in this film. I recommend you check out the sequel to this (RoboCop 2), its not as great as this one, but it is worth the watch. The 3rd film was sadly not even close to the first 2, and it lost the great talents of Peter Weller. Much love to you guys!
You two make rewatching movies so much fun.
One if my favorite action films of all time!
I love with your reactions how excited you get when one of you is working out the story before the other, natural reactors 👌
To this day, firing Dick so Directive 4 is deactivated is one of the smartest assists to kill the villain ever.
Director Paul Verhoeven is mostly known for his Hollywood sci-fi movies, but he also made one of the best movies of 2021: Benedetta.
I just want to say “hello Joy & Marion: thanks for your faces 🎉”
When emil hit the toxic waste. They didn't tell the greaser looking guy wasn't informed on how emil would look. So when he yelled "ahh get off of me man!" It was a genuine reaction. And the director did it on purpose. Some of the best reactions in cinema history are when the actors don't know a curveball that is thrown. So the reactions are so genuine in surprise it can win them Oscars.

They don’t make original projects like this anymore. Movies like these in the 80s were lightning in a bottle. Ultra violent, unintentionally hilarious, but with plenty of heart.
I would take it that the scene in which a "former city councilman" holds the mayor and his staff hostage was probably inspired by the 1978 murder of San Francisco mayor Moscone and supervisor Milk by former supervisor Dan White; that incident would still have been fairly prominent in the national consciousness when this movie was made. As always, you guys are wonderful.

One reason this movie is incredible is its high level satire of corporatocracies. Its criticism of the military industrial complex, other forms of corporate welfare, gentrification, heartless and psychopathic business values, police suppression of the poor instead of addressing the causes of poverty, promoting technology that industry profits from at taxpayers' expense, infotainment, privatization, commercialism, consumerism, business propaganda, etc. It's not just an action movie with an amazing musical score, acting, special effects, set design, etc. With appreciation of its accurate satire, the movie deserves a 10 out of 10. Robocop is one of my top five favorite movies for several reasons.

Can never replace the human soul like they tried with the Jensen/Yamaha heart transplants. They tried replacing every piece of Murphy to be an OCP product, but Murphy's soul still wakes up through his memories.
Best comment from Joy. "They are criminals Marion, what do you expect!"😅
The irony of Dick Jones telling Clearance Boddicker that Robocop is a cyborg that can record everything someone says then tells Robocop that he killed Bob Morton which was also recorded and used against him at the end of the film.
If you were listening to Bob at the meeting he told the old man that he sent Murphy to that precint on purpose because the crime is high and he would be a good candidate for the Robocop program. That's also why they wouldn't send backup when they needed it. Setting Murphy up to get killed.
Yes, found you guys because of RoboCop, I love the way you guys pay attention to the movie
Some actors make a role all their own, Arnold is The Terminator, Wesley Snipes is Blade, and Peter Weller is Robocop.
"....Buddy I think you're slime..." One of the greatest films of the '80s - I knew you'd both dig it. Rob Bottin - who did all the f/x for THE THING - designed the RoboCop structure.
There's foreshadowing in Robocop. When Boddicker mimicks a machine aiming the shotgun to blow Murphy's hand. Less did he knew that hand he blows up would end up killing him with a bionic hand on its place.
This movie is so much better than the remake. I first saw this when i was a kid in the 80's and i think it holds up really well by today's standards. I heard there's to be a proper remake of RoboCop with the original iconic suit design from this movie. Great reaction video, glad you liked this movie, it's a classic 80's hit that deserves attention.

He actually does Keep that Gun. He has the sight removed (since his robot vision is all he needs) but it reappears in Robocop 2 & his cameo in Mortal Kombat.
If you listen to Bob Morton at the start, he says we’ve placed prime candidates in high risk areas. That’s why Alex Murphy was placed in the new precinct. He was a perfect candidate for the Robocop program.
I loved you guys reaction to this. Really warmed my heart. Thank you for sharing
Peter Weller always works in good, interesting, offbeat films- "Leviathan", "Screamers", "Naked Lunch", "Sunset Grill".

The behind the scenes definitely are worth a watch. Paul the director at first wasn't interested in the movie and his wife convinced him to take another look at it which got him interested in doing the movie. That and it took them several cuts to get it from an X rating (or NC--17 or something like that an American rating basically that not one under 17 or 18 is allowed in). Like they had to cut down the guy getting shot by the ED-209 and some of Murphy getting shot. One part in particular being Alex getting shot in the head.
"That was a beautiful ending" haha! I love you guys!
IMO this is the best Robocop movie. Also this movie is more deep than many people realize, is not only a cool action movie about a killed cop, becoming a awesome robot, is also a deep social satire, like many of this director movies, from the OCP ultra capitalist behavior, to the TV ads and programs, to the city posters, specially the one in the rape scene, to the name of that special car the 6000 SUX and many other stuff. IMO this movie needs to be seen more than once to get all the little details.

Hey guys, I have been enjoying your reactions for a while now and you guys are "AWESOME MAN"!! Anyways, when it comes to remaking or rebooting a movie sometimes the second one is better than the first. "Judge Dredd" (staring Sylvester Stallone) was kinda like a comedy/action, and it was good; but honestly the reboot called "Dredd" (staring Karl Urban), was more like the comics, he is a serious person, and in the movie it plays out very well.

It took me a few viewings to pick up on the nuances in the final scene. After Murphy says he can’t act against a senior member of OCP, when Jones is holding the Old Man hostage, you can see that the Old Man is looking directly at Murphy, waiting for the right time to fire Jones, so he can be taken out.
This is first of Plau Verhoeven's "gore trilogy" followed by Total Recall and Starship Troopers. Beneath blood, gore and violence you see sharp social commentary and commentary against corporalism and facism. They are genious films.

This film truly stands the test of time. Also, it's the 35th Anniversary of the film! As for the sequels, they are nowhere near as good as this film. To be honest, the sequels seemed like parodies of this film. Great reaction video, folks!
The director Paul Verhoeven is one hulluva master director of satire. Beside his hollywood movies, check out his Dutch ones. Also his latest movie Benedetta was good too.

Robocop is not a robot. He's a cyborg. Cybernetic Organism composed of living human tissue. Also, he doesn't have any problems distinguishing right from wrong as he has 3 prime directives. 1) Serve the public trust. 2) Protect the innocent. 3) Uphold the law. Robocop is also DLC character on Mortal Kombat 11.
I saw this movie over 500 times, but Joy pointed out something to me that I never picked up. Robocop is not programmed to act against an officer of the company. The boss recognized that and fired dick jones on the spot which mean he's no longer OCP and made him fair game. That allowed directive 4 to be voided and robocop was able to smoke him. Thank you Joy.

If you pay attention at the beginning, when the executives are talking, they mentioned moving ideal candidates around the department. They were putting certain officers in high risk jurisdictions intentionally so they could have a subject for the Robocop project. As far as using the officers corpse, it's illegal to abuse or misuse a corpse, but these officers signed releases which basically gave the company the right to do whatever they wished.
