Remember when they used to make toys from R-rated movies like this, and marketed them to impressionable young kids? Good times, good times.
Had a Robocop figure from back then. You put caps in a spot in his back, and pulled a switch to make smoke and gun sounds come out. Good stuff.
Toys? They made cartoons. Robocop, Rambo, Highlander!
Don't forget the arcade and video games. I had the Game Boy game when it first came out. Was pretty fun but hard.
That was one of the strangest trends of the 80's. RAMBO (Rated R for ultra violence) gets a cartoon, and a breakfast cereal. POLICE ACADEMY (Rated R for sexual humor, and nudity) gets a cartoon, and action figures. By the time the 90's rolled around, I was expecting a "Basic Instinct" cartoon, and home game. You know... for kids!

"I dont wanna f*ck with you, Sal [dips two fingers into Sal's wine glass and takes a sniff]".....

"Cobra Assault Rifle. State of the art....bang bang"
Funny fact- When Emil goes up to Leon begging for help after he'd been deformed by the toxic waste, they didn't show the actor playing Leon what Emil looked like in make-up, so his reaction and scream were genuine.
😆🤣 I remember reading about that - either in Fangoria or Starlog - before I saw the movie: when the scene happened and I saw Ray Wise go 😳😲😯 I burst out laughing.
@@trevormoses5061 He thought a bum or drug addict somehow snuck onto the set.
"You're fired!"
"Thank you."
One of the hypest villain defeat moments in any movie anywhere.
"Young Wilford Brimley just killed Dr Phill" = Emily's best comment to date 😂🤣😂
Yes, very MST3K, that.
Wish I could like this multiple times.
I’d buy that comment for a dollar
had to pause and laugh for min at that
Hahaha that supposed to be my comment, but indeed!
"You're still people, baby."
I've seen this film countless times, read numerous articles about it, studied it in film school, and I have never once heard its main theme stated so perfectly.
i mean..., it is ONE of the big themes of the Cyberpunk genre.
I'll buy that for a dollar!
"It's a free society. Uh, except there ain't nothing free, because there's no guarantees, y'know? You're on your own. That's the law of the jungle, ooo hoo hoo!" Good 'ol Keva Rosenberg.
If I had a dollar for every time I've said that I'd be a millionaire.
You beat me to it! I was gonna comment that once I saw the thumbnail.
@@CaptainRetroStation LMAO!
*I'd
Another epic line: “Dead or alive, you’re coming with me” Robocop is an amazing movie!
The cocaine factory shootout was Weller's favorite scene. He had headphones on under the Robo helmet jamming out to rock tunes while he gunned down the bad guys.
Specifically, he was listening to Red Rain by Peter Gabriel
Living the dream.
@@willbacewicz2087 Noice.
I read n y's comment too fast as *The cocaine was Weller's favorite* .

My favorite scene too! Rockin that Robocop theme while kickin ass !!
"I'm a desperate man... I want some fresh coffee"
Love it
I was working at Dollar Tree when I saw the director's cut blu-ray hidden on the shelf one morning so I picked it up after work.
I literally bought that for a dollar.
(Well plus 7 cents tax, but still)
Please tell you me said that at the counter when you got it. Please also tell me that your coworker got the reference.
@@rcslyman8929I did, but unintentionally. It didn't even occur to me until I got it home because I had only seen it once before and long enough ago that I forgot that line. So I had no idea why my co-worker was laughing
@@HobGungan Now that's awesome, lol
Same here, although I was just a customer! And they also had the 2014 remake so I got both for $2. The remake can't touch the original but it's OK. It didn't have that twisted sense of humor that the original had, it was more serious.
Omg I’m so damn happy for you hahaha awesome
Ok, imagine it's 1987, and Robocop is in theaters right around your 10th birthday, and you don't know much about it, but it sounds interesting, so you ask your dad to take you to see as a birthday present. And you've never really seen any violent movie on the big screen before, never mind an ultra-graphic one like this. This movie holds a special place in my heart as my first experience of receiving trauma as a childhood birthday present. My innocence was lost that day, folks.🤯😵🥳
I was a senior in High School when I saw "Robocop"....but I WAS 11 when I saw "Alien" in the theater, so I know a little bit about seeing an age inappropriate film that traumatizes you.
Nah, saw this on video. One person rents it, and is seen by as many households before the 48hr rental is over. Any 15 or 18 film did the rounds.
Same! I was 12 and me and my three buddies snuck in by buying another ticket for another movie. After that Ed scene, we were traumatized. Neither one of us had seen a movie so violent. It was so shocking, we all thought we might’ve made a mistake, but damn did we get over it. We couldn’t shut up about that movie for weeks. Lol!
It was a great movie but 3 years earlier I saw The Terminator which I think is the best Sci Fi movie ever.
Yep watched this when I was 9!! 😳
Fun Fact: Kurtwood Smith, who played Clarence, met his actual wife on that movie. She was the secretary that he placed his gum on her name tag.
Every once in a while, a lame pick up line works...
@@SuddenReal Robocop was filmed in Dallas Tx instead of Detroit
He was also the narrator in Starship Troopers
@@fudhater8592 Great, now I want a Rifftrack of Total Recall by Kurtwood Smith playing Red Foreman.
I never ever knew that! Thank you for that information!
"Bitches leave" is the best line in cinematic history. By far..
And when filming the scene, the director didn't realize the meaning of it so he would things along the lines of "Okay, Kurtwood comes in, bitches go out the door, bitches ask Miguel to call them; where are the bitches?"
I've actually seen it used in other movies by criminals characters.
The medical crew tending to the dying Murphy were actual medical personnel, and were basically given the scenario and told to make it sound medical. The writer said he wished he could claim credit for "let's go ahead and shock a flatline and let's quit."
That little smile on your face knowing what was coming with the ED-209 scene at the beginning was great.
This movie is so much better as an adult than as a kid. The satire really punches through.
His pistol, "the auto 9" as its known in robocop lore, is actually a modified beretta 93R machine pistol.
Heavily modded, actually working but can only use blank round
@@GrimThe13 by all accounts it could still make a mess. Especially when fired off in a hotel shower......lol
@@EdgyNumber1 I wonder what story is behind that comment
@@GrimThe13 Well basically when Verhoeven and one of his staff got hold of the completed weapon, they got a bit excited couldn't help themselves. So they tried it out, firing into the shower (blanks of course) but after the air cleared all the resulting powder residue made an absolute mess all over the place. It was in mentioned in an interview with him somewhere.
17:05 After all these years, I just now realized that Dick Jones dropped a deuce, didn't wash his hands, then ran his fingers through homeboy's hair. 🤣
🤣🤣😂😂yep
Oh yes. That made me gag in the cinema, way back
@Teddy G
🤢🤮
You guys should look up Peter Wellers talks on the Robocop shoot and how the character evolved based on the costume. Originally the movement was meant to be slick and ffluid but the suit was quite cumbersome so they had to revise movement to what we have today.
Peter Weller is an excellent lecturer and and absolute treasure to the acting community :)
Thumbs up for "Oh my God you killed Kenny" LOL
Those Bastards!!!
YOU BASTARDS!!!!
"Are they making sand art?"
Don't know why, but it was the funniest moment for me this week.
“Young Willford Brimly just killed doctor Phil” lmao 😂
The late, great Basil Poledouris scored this. It's a gem, as is his score for Conan the Barbarian.
He even composed Conan the Destroyer / Red Dawn / Iron Eagle / Cherry 2000 / The Hunt for Red October / Serial Mom / Starship Troopers / Breakdown / Cecil B. Demented / Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles and the like. RIP...
The Hospital scene when they're working on Murphy is real. It's real on the sense that the filmmakers hired actual Doctors and Nurses, gave them a scenario of what happened and told them to do what they would if it was an actual situation.
Not a doctor here or familiar with medical procedures, so I wonder why that particular scene would even be neccessary when Murphy got shot in the head and was obviously dead before arriving to the hospital.
Which is really strange, because you never shock a flatline, so why would a medical professional say that?
@Necramonium Murphy's situation and the way he got shot gives no indication anything like that would be possible with him. Thanks for your answer though.
@@JDelwynn its still a movie so they might have intended him to die in one way when the hospital scene was filmed and then when they filmed the death they might have changed it because it worked better on film
@@DreamyWoIf Sure, but if he still had a pulse and was breathing (no obvious damage to the brain stem or autonomic functions) they'd have rushed him to an ER regardless.
I said it before and I'll say it again: Paul Verhoeven is an underrated director.
I think I say this for a lot of us but Emily is just adorable to watch these classics alongside. Fast becoming my favourite channel. Thumbs up from The UK 👍
She absolutely is adorable. I love the dynamic between her and Matt too.
Only time she annoyed me was when she kept making a big fuss over Edward Furlong in the T2 reaction.
This is honest to God a perfect film with such an amazing smorgasbord of memorable quotes. It's one of the very few films my dad and I both love.
5:56, the stop motion animation was designed by Phil Tippett whom would later win the Oscar for Best Visual Effects for JURASSIC PARK.
He alao made teh Tauntauns and other Star Wars OT wonders..
YOU HAD ONE JOB, PHIL!
Your wife's reaction to the mayor demanding a recount was absolutely priceless LOL
Yeah, only a whackjob would demand that kind of job back.
"DEAD OR ALIVE... YOU'RE GOING TO SUBSCRIBE TO THIS CHANNEL."
"This has some gratuitous violence, right?"
Oh sweet summer child. You. Have. NO. IDEA!
Oh, man, Robocop is my childhood hero. To quote a wise man, "You're in for a show tonight."
"OMG they killed Kenny!"
She's the BEST.
Fun Fact: Even though Robocop is set in a futuristic Detroit, the movie was actually filmed in Dallas, Texas.
Another reaction channel (apparently located in Dallas) recently did a tour of RoboCop filming locations. ruclips.net/video/04tccM0lLZA/видео.html
Yes! I'm from Dallas/Ft Worth the Dallas skyline was still new at the time
And Robocop 2 was filmed down the highway in Houston.
Yeah I could tell
@@cathcarttowershotel4988 ?
25:55, "His mutant name? Ewww-mil!" A genuine laugh-out-loud moment! 😆😆😆
yes 😂😆🤣
You've seen Verhoeven satirize colonization/exploitation (Total Recall) and the privatization/militarization of police (Robocop). Now you need to see him satirize fascism. Would you like to know more?
I don't think they're ready for Showgirls yet.
@@szeltovivarsydroxan9944 Can you imagine how many times Emily would have to say ‘titties’ in THAT one?? 😂
I'm doing my part.
Every reaction channel should have Robo/Total/Starship/Show Quadrility. Verhooven classics!
WH40k: Imperial Guard Vs Tyranids, the movie.
"Litches, LEAVE!"- The party's Cleric.
OHMYGOD!!! Literally just snorted I laughed so hard at this!!
You win the internet for the night!!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Cheers!!
Emily
It's a perfect movie in so much that everything it sets out to do, it executes flawlessly.
Everything except those damn monkey arms on plummeting Dick Jones. Be a perfect 10 if not for that one messed up special effect right at the end. :P
@@carn9507 apparently the reason for that was that it was one of the last effects shots made for the movie, before it was locked down (before celluloid duplication & distribution) and they had to rush it. The moulds warped in the oven, resulting in the extended arms, even Paul Verhoeven mentions it on the director's commentary if I recall.
As a kid, the most horrifying scenes were Murphy's death scene and Ew-mil/Toxic Waste guy. Enough to put me off the noodles I was eating at the time for life.
As a grown up, what scared me most was the boardroom death by ED-209. Not the death itself (which is still pretty horrifying) but the reaction to it in how it was seen as a disappointment and a costly glitch.
Also corporate takeover of the police force is too relevant right now.
That boardroom scene is actually meant to be humorous. Siskel & Ebert talked about laughing their butts off during that scene. Especially w/ someone saying to call a medic afterwards.
ED 209 scared me when I was a kid. Today it's the politicians and feminists that scare me the most.
@@jp3813 after working in corporate sector for 20 odd year I can confirm they actually say this kind of politically correct stuff all the time.
@@jasonscala5834 Calling a medic?
@@jp3813 yes when it's quite clear he is dead..
Also the music is by Basil Poledouris, not sure if Conan's going on this series or the Rewatch one, but he did the music for that too.
When I hear the music in Robocop, I instantly think of Conan. I keep expecting Conan to walk into the scene, lol.
He also did The Hunt For Red October. I love that score.
Not to mention the critically acclaimed Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles. I think he even did Hot Shots Part Deux.
Also 2 other faves.. The Hunt for Red October and Starship Troopers are amazing scores
And Under Siege 2!
20:16 -- Considering this was released in 1987.... It would be almost 10 years until DVD was invented. Whomever wrote this, nailed it..
Wonder if anyone has requested older movies such as "The Sting" with Robert Redford and Paul Newman. It's an oldie but a hell of a goodie.
_RedfordCop_
Great movie. Amazing cast. Great Theme. Musical score is great.
You want a Redford/Newman classic you GOT to go with Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.
@@eeduranti I've seen it many times, but I still like The Sting better. Just MO but they are both worthy of watching. I've just never seen anyone react to "The Sting", whereas I have seen reactions to Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid.
Can't beat the poker game scene from The Sting. Totally Epic.
@B M They are both great movies, but I have yet to see a reaction to "The Sting". But I also like it more, not to say anything bad about BC & the Sundance Kid.
I'm still waiting for them to review Animal House since I know they like comedies.
I would also like to see them review "Porky's" but that would require some serious editing. Especially the shower scene which leads up to one of the funniest scenes with Ms. Balbricker, the Boys' gym teachers and the principal. No matter how many times I see that scene I'm in tears from laughing. And anyone who has seen Porky's knows the scene I'm probably talking about.
I love how you can gauge Emily's excitement level by how high pitch her laugh gets.
First of all, I just want to say that "RoboCop" is one of my all time favorite films! I'm so happy you finally got to see it, and even happier than you LOVED IT!
TRIVIA TIME! This movie was followed by 2 sequels, 2 live action TV shows, 2 different cartoon series, and the 2nd attempt at a reboot is currently in the works!
-The type of gun that was used for RoboCop was a Beretta 93R machine pistol (the Auto 9) which had a compensator and some decorative dressing added to it to increase the size of the gun in his massive hand.
-Depending on what type of a shot they were working on, the RoboCop suit could weigh anywhere between 25 to 80 lbs! When scenes required Robo to walk up stairs, or get out of a car, Peter Weller only wore the top half of the Robo-suit, and they would only shoot him from the waist up.
-Peter Weller had worked with a mime coach for weeks to learn how to move like a robot properly. But, by the time he got fitted into his costume, none of the moves they had been rehearsing on would work. So, they had to halt production so Weller could learn to mime again with the suit on.
Oh, I could go on, and on, and on about this movie!
Don´t forget the video games, especially the PC ones, which were very good (for the time).
"Iiiiii LIKE IT!"
Put Midnight Run, Big Trouble in Little China, and Quick Change on your list.
And Short Circuit!
I love Quick Change. Highly overlooked comedy classic.
The Warriors.
Midnight run is classic.
That "Young Wilford Brimley killed Dr. Phil" comment just earned you a new subscriber.
Did you notice the mileage that the 6000SUX achieves, to warrant the "Something that goes really fast and gets really shitty gas mileage" quote? The advert for it lists it at the bottom of the screen "8.2 M.P.G." - "An American Tradition" indeed.
The director confirmed that Robocop is a subversive take on Jesus Christ. In the beginning, Murphy is shot in a torturous manner reminiscent of crucifixion, he is returned to life to save people, and in the end, he walks on water and his side is pierced by a spear.
Yeah, but instead of forgiven sins, he shoots rapists in the dick.
@@Joetorres3 Just as good
@@Joetorres3 lol he forgives them . Just not giving him the opportunity to do it again.
Nick
Well, that ruined the movie for me.
@@Aeroldoth3 your welcome
Didn't see either of these on the list, but thinking you'd like both Commando (1985) and The Running Man (1987).
7:41 "Someone call a goddam parmedic ! " ..... and tell him to bring a bucket.
Jaboody dubs?
As Angelina Jolie's character would say in "Girl, Interrupted": "Make it a hearse!" (instead of calling an ambulance).
Bring a bucket. A mop. A carpet-scrubber. And maybe some blotting-paper too.
The hubby was tearing up during the score
"Stairs, the greatest nemesis" as a full time wheelchair user I feel that on a personal level and it's very feckin funny LOL
I'D BUY THIS REACTION FOR A DOLLAR!
22:00 "Yo, Walter Brimley just killed Dr. Phil!" Greatest... Emily line... EVER!
I still think it's the best movie ever made. It has everything: action, comedy, drama, sci fi, a good hero you root for, great villains you hate, good music, good story, cool special effects (I miss the times where movies were NOT 90% CGI and the actors were not just standing in front of a green screen), I love this movie!!. I've watched it hundreds of times since it came out and I never get bored of it. It's lighting in a bottle, it's magic.
Dan O’Herly (the Old Man) also played the alien navigator “Grigg” in The Last Starfighter.
Another of my classic forbidden pleasures.
I love The Last Starfighter.
ahhh, so that's why he seemed so familiar to me back then
And the bad guy in _Halloween III_ , and I think Robinson Crusoe.
Another must see. The Last Star Fighter is a under reacted to movie
Emily's expressions during this were a joy to see.
Also: Did you notice that Robocop was walking on water in the end?
Oh, true! Another Christ allegory in the movie.
"STAIRS!" Her reaction to that was perfect. 🤣
@28:55....."murder, it's ooookkkkk"....that smile and thumbs up always gets me, lol
Based on Starship Troopers and Robocop, I can say for sure Paul Verhoeven is absolutely convinced all dressing rooms/public showers in the future will be mixed male/female
Or, at least, he wants them to be.
Well he is european
@@Jar0fMay0 ah ha ha

@@Hiraghm you were probably the only person leaving that great movie. Which is bad however, when compared to the original book.

Dredd is flat incredible, I'm so impressed you've both seen it
They did? Wow, some cred points for both indeed.
The only problem with Dredd is even the 1995 Judge Dredd movie (and much of the RoboCop franchise) had more of the satire from the Judge Dredd source material.
Is that the one with Karl Urban or the fake Dredd one?
@@happiestaku6646 Judge Dredd (1995) is with Sylvester Stallone.
Dredd (2012) aka "Dredd 3D" is with Karl Urban.
@@Mansplainer2099-jy8ps I was asking if they had watched the Karl Urban one since that is the real Dredd movie. Not the shit fake one.
The soundtrack was actually composed by Basil Poledouris (Conan The Barbarian, Red Dawn,and many more epic 80's & 90's movies) :)
Ah yes!!! Love the 80s action! They should have never remade this one.
Still haven't bothered to watch it.
Hell, for that matter, still haven't seen Oceans [something], Ghost Busters, Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, Total Recall, Red Dawn, MIB...
Probably more, just can't think of them at the moment.
Hmm. I may have actually seen Oceans [whatever] now that I think about it.
@@Spthomas47 It's awful
@@Spthomas47 For me, the biggest problem with the remake is that Murphy had his memories and his wife and son and doctor fighting for him to be recognized as a human being from the very beginning, and that seriously weakened the tragedy-then-triumph of the Murphy regaining his humanity theme that made audiences want to cheer when The Old Man asked "What's your name, son?" and he answered "MURPHY" in the original.
@@waterbeauty85 yikes. They really missed the mark, eh?
@@downhomesunset certainly sounds like it.

If you're talking about Dick Jones' gun it was a Desert Eagle.
If you're talking about RoboCop's gun it's a modified Auto 9, an actual Israeli military weapon.
Italian
The Auto 9 is the fictional pistol - it was based on a Beretta 93R which can fire volleys of 3 rounds.
I'm so glad you enjoyed RoboCop! This and RoboCop 2 are the only ones that matters to me. I hope you guys react to the sequel. It was directed by Irvin Kershner. The man that directed The Empire Strikes Back. My that man rest in peace
When I was hella young, maybe 7, my family had borrowed a VCR and I skipped morning class to stay home and watch this. The scene where mutton chops takes a chemical bath freaked me out so bad that I ran to school right away.
That scene still freaks me out. I was 8 or 9 when I saw it the first time, and now I am 41, and it still freaks/creeps me out.
You were like, *"Don't touch me, man!"*
18:13; “that’s why you wear a helmet.” I was dying 😂
Dead or alive you're coming with me
This is actually the censored version. The original version sent to the ratings board had to be censored for being too violent.
😳 where can I watch?
Also, Irvin Kershner who directed Empire Strikes Back, directed the sequel and Frank Miller wrote it. The gun was a modified Beretta M93R 9mm machine pistol with a bunch of awesome cosmetics to make it look like "a coffin" ,the suit weighed around 60 lbs i believe and Peter Weller studied with a famous Israeli mime to get the movement right. They made a lighter and bluer suit for the sequel also. The woman that Boddiker leers at on the way up to Jones' office, is actually Kurtwood Smith's wife lol
"I want a recount! And no matter how it turns out, I want my old job back!!" Sounds familiar. 🙄
I HIGHLY recommend you guys watch "It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World" (1963). The movie is wildly hilarious and so chaotic!
Dick Shawn was great in it. Still loved him more in the Producers.
“Anyone gonna reimburse Nanna and Peepaw?” is a question I’ve had for many years. :)
15:35 - Yeah, like that wouldn't make for an awkward work environment. "Hey, guy, remember when you held us all hostage at gunpoint? Wasn't that a hoot?"
This was my favorite movie in high school! The scene where Murphy gets killed was such a hard scene for me to watch and it feels very personable.
I saw this movie way too young and that scene traumatized me a bit lol.
Sorry, don't mean to be a dick but maybe Autocorrect screwed you - 'personable' means affable, pleasant, engaging, socially adept. I really hope you didn't feel all warm and fuzzy over Murphy's death lol.
"Are they making sand art?" LOLZ
Emily's reactions are adorable, Matthew just holding on from bursting out laughing at some scenes is hilarious! Keep it up guys!
The movie initially got an X rating from the MPAA for violence, as the initial cut featured ED-209 continuing to shoot Kenny for an additional 30 seconds.
In some scenes, Peter Weller had headphones on under his helmet and was listening to music on his Walkman. In the scene in the factory when he guns everyone down and arrests Clarence, I believe he said he was listening to the Talking Heads.
As a bit of personal trivia, my then-girlfriend (now ex-wife) and I went to see this on what was our first official "real" date. We'd more or less been a couple for a while before that, but apart from going somewhere for pizza once, we hadn't really gone on a proper date before that.
15:13 Robo defied the thigh gap!! 🤣
Robo: "Stay out of trouble!"
And from then on, I stayed in school and got all A's 🤣
You totally need to react to Roadhouse with Patrick Swayze. She'd love it.
"I'm sure it's just a glitch.." Best offhand delivery in movie history ...
Hey, Em: If you need more of those Peter Weller cheekbones, check out "The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across The Eighth Dimension." And "The Naked Lunch."
.. and the cheesy horror flick: Leviathan
Buckaroo Banzai for sure! With a really young Jeff Goldblum.
@@NathanWind99 and Clancy Brown!
@@jean-paulaudette9246 And Ellen Barkin. And John Lithgow. And Christopher Lloyd. Such a great cast! Damn, I need to rewatch it now.
His guest spot in tv show Psych as a history professor serial killer.
15:36 Yep.. that is the reaction we will all have for that moment from now on XD
I still want a copy of the Nuke 'Em game. :D
You should watch "ROBOCOP 2" (directed by the guy who directed "StarWars : The Empire strikes back") It's really good for a sequel ! 👍
The best parts of this movie, and the sequel, were the commercials. There was a lot of comedy in them, but those commercials were just awesome.
Yeah, Media Break was hilarious.
NUKE EM! Get them before they get you!
I liked the car security system. The guy gets in tries to hot wire it and these shackles come out of the seat and lock him in, then electrocute him. Then the announcer opens the door, with the smoking hulk thrown on to the floor, and starts the car. "AND IT DOESN'T EVEN DRAIN THE BATTERY". "MAGNA- VOLT, LEATHEL RESPONSE!"
@@davidmarquardt2445 That was in Robocop 2. But yeah, that was pretty good.
In RC 2 i love the video of the new Robocop prototypes :)
"Young Wilford Brimley just killed Doctor Phil" is the funniest thing I've heard in a while.
15:36 "I want a recount! And no matter how it turns out, I want my old job back!" - prescient, huh?
Yes indeed. It's like he was sent back to the future.😂
Fun fact: There's "talk" that the filmmakers were out to make a Dredd film but lost the rights at the last moment and made Robocop instead, which is why Robo uses direct Dredd lines like "Your move creep" just to stick it to 'em. Almost like, "Uh, yeah. You should have let us make a Dredd film you idiots!" And instead of MegaCity 1 they had Delta City. Just a couple of fun tidbits for ya'. Great video (as per usual). Be safe. Hug the groundhog. Cheers from Oz. 🍕🍻
I heard Ed Neumeier and Michael Miner wrote a Judge Dredd screenplay, but they couldn't sell it to any studio because no one who didn't go to a comic book store knew who Dredd was. So Robocop was born.
"OH MY GOD THEY KILLED KENNY!"
The line "Bitches leave" was so good in fact, that from then on, when the director was giving directions in this scene, he would refer to these actresses as "Bitches". "Okay, so you bitches pick up your stuff and run out looking concerned and then you say your line." LOL
3:51 YEAH, YOU KNOW ME!!
14:22 Fun fact: Basil Pouledoris (the one who scored this movie) and Miguel Ferrer were featured in "Hot Shots Part Deux".
15:12 Back in '86 I was living in Dallas Tx...and by happenstance my roommate and I drove by them filming this scene...I didn't see Robo but I saw the billboard and kept my eyes open for a sci-fi movie coming out in the next year...boom out came Robocop.
