It's funny how many of us watched these hard R-rated movies as kids. 😂
Well Bugs Bunny and the roadrunner kinda desensitized us to the violence when we were even younger...
Yeah 😂 also too when they made like happy Cartoon series of brutal movies.
I grew up watching these movies. I had a Freddy poster on my wall before I was 10 I was born in 83 lmao.
I saw terminator WAY before i was supposed to lol.
It was a wild time these R rated movies were literally advertised to appeal to children. In my opinion the late 80s/90s was the best time to grow up in.
I had absolutely NO business watching this film as a kid 🤷🏾♂️😂🔞 It’s still one of my favorite 80’s action flicks to this day!
80's were a unique time, when movies like this were targeted to us kids. It was great!
I watched The Thing and Alien in the same night when I was home alone at age 9. I still have a phobia about body horror to this day.
✌👍💯
Lol same! Pretty sure every 80s kid grew up watching 18+ films 😆
This movie has no business being so good, it's not even fair!
22:13 I'd just like to point to _this_ scene to illustrate _one_ key point. Before he was massacred, Murphy's home life was actually _pretty awesome._ He wasn't necessarily in the lap of luxury, but he was doing better than a _lot_ of people. He had a healthy relationship with his wife. He had a healthy relationship with his son. He was the kind of guy who tended to get _along_ with people.
"Call a paramedic"...
Guy was absolutely shredded apart!
Yeah, that line was so messed up.
Yeah, better call the county coroner and tell him to bring a shop-vac.
I first saw this movie when it came out, and I've seen it a BUNCH of times, but I only just noticed something new now, mainly because of the new video game that just came out. When Murphy says "He's a cop killer", the camera shoots him from below so you can see the memorial wall of fallen police officers behind him. I've honestly never noticed that until now, & it looks like it was an intentional choice to show that wall when he said that line.
Nice catch
Awesome catch ! When I played the game, I told myself "I don't remember seeing this in the movie" 😅
Holy crap, I never caught that either.
That morgue line..haha, gotta love the humor in this film
Peter Weller's movements in this film are just a thing of beauty and Clarence is such a great villain.
All of the actors did their jobs well/were well-directed. The actor who plays Dick Jones is in Beverly Hills Cop (1 & 2), where he gets to be a good guy. I liked that each of Clarence's henchmen had distinctive personalities. The actor who played Emil in Robocop also goes to the right side of the law in The Blob (1988), a first-rate horror film.
A documentary just came out called RoboDoc: The Creation of RoboCop. It's the best one I've seen about the magic of movie making. So much went into this film/story. A passionate team of people who are masters at their craft.
"Bitches leave." And so Clarence Boddicker nailed his name in the Book of Great Villains.
100%. It’s one of the greatest lines in the history of cinema.
I remember going to see Robocop in the theater with a friend when we were 12 years old. No one gave a crap in the 80s, lol. Heck, there were Robocop toys for children. Times have changed.
I remember going to the theater to see "Predator" and the trailer for this showed. You could feel an electricity in the audience. It seemed to come out of nowhere and everyone was like, "What the heck is this?" Also, being from the Detroit area it was exciting for me to see a big-budget film centered in the Motor City on the big screen.
RoboCop vs Predator 🎉
I love this film, it doesn’t take itself too seriously, I can imagine it in a comic book in way you only see in 80’s films, great stuff
There was a one-shot adaptation of the first two movies and a 23 issue series from Marvel, 5 mini-series from Dark Horse Comics, a 9 issue series and 2 one-shots from Avatar Press, 2 series from Dynamite Entertainment, and 4 series from Boom! Studios.
I saw this at the cinema on release, i thought the satire was way over the top at the time, now i dont think it goes far enough.
Good reaction ladies!
Back in the day we kids were desperate to find the uncut vhs version of this film, like it wasn't already brutal enough 😅
The thing about the ED-209 series robots, who are basically what we today would call autonomous armed drones, is that it's mentioned they were designed for the _military_ to be used in _war zones_ (to slaughter soldiers or other robots). The ED-209 are not meant to be used 1. in urban environments, 2. for "peace-keeping" civilian crowd-control, 3. for "crime fighting" and patrolling and crime prevention among a civilian populace. But that's what OCP is trying to use them for. It's part of the satire about the militarization and privatization of the communal police force (and the police _is_ a civilian institution, not a military one!) which in the USA started creeping in in the 1980s. RoboCop is a Cyberpunk film at its core, a dystopian satire. Verhoeven and the script writers extrapolated from the trends going on in the USA at the time. They likely didnt imagine that now in the 2020s this has more or less become reality (with the exception of full body cyberware prosthetics).
Note that the original RoboCop does _not_ end with a "happy end"... OCP corporation is still in charge, still determined to build Delta City, and Murphy will forever be stuck as a cyborg. His small victory is that he did his job and put the perpetrators of the gang violence away, as the gang was being supplied with their military-grade weaponry _by_ the OCP CEO to use the increased gang violence as an excuse to privatize the police that OCP had deliberately sabotaged and as excuse to declare Old Detroit lost, time to bulldoze it and build shiny Delta City as a corporate city and gated community for OCP employees.
The sequel RoboCop 2 (1990) was okay, as it continued the story, but the antagonists were forgettable. RoboCop 3 (1993) and the RoboCop spin-off series (2001) were garbage and had a different director and different actor playing Murphy.
The crappy remake from the year 2014, though, completely misunderstood or disregarded the message of coporate greed and systemic corruption of the original 1987 RoboCop movie and instead turned it into a generic action flick about the Action Hero Dad Who Saves His Family (yes, the remake had Murphy remember his family and his wife and son were still there, wtf). The remake make the action sequences and violence look like a videogame and the movie pretended a shoot-them-up solved all problems.
The remake also had the ED-209 robots being used by the USA for "peace-keeping" purposes in wartorn countries in the Middle East and then pretended they worked so well keeping all those "terrorists" in check and "pacifying" the (terrified) civilian population in their refugee camps that the USA ordered them for urban law enforcement. Nothing to see here, move along!
"Somebody wanna call a goddamn paramedic!?"
The director Paul Verhoeven is one of my absolute favourites. Robocop, Total Recall, Starship Troopers etc. He's a master of the ironic, satirical, entertaining-but-dystopian 'heroes of a slightly (?) fascistic society' approach.
The actor who plays Robocop (Paul Weller) is a doctor of Italian art history etc in real life and has been teaching it in New York universities etc for a long time (even though he didn't get his doctorate until 2015). He's a very smart, nice guy.
In Rococop, when he says things like "your move, creep" or "come quietly or there'll be trouble", I wondered if the film is a subtle homage to the Judge Dredd comic strips. I've seen people online saying there was a 2002 interview where Verhoeven confirmed this. Obviously, there have been two actual movies of Judge Dredd but I can't say either of them do its whole crazy bubblegum-coloured skyscrapers and circus atmosphere well enough.
I hate the bit at the end of Robocop where Dick Jones' arms look really long when he falls. Apparently the model of him was fine and that the problem was actually the background being too small, so the special effects people had to use lens distortion - making the arms look long.
We need a RoboCop judge dredd cross over they would be best buddies 😂
@@josephmarkham6545 Yeah! I've got some huge collections of old 80s Judge Dredd mini comic strips and every one of them is such a perfect little snapshot of anarchic dark comedy.
Miguel Ferrer also known as Bob the RoboCop boss is Rosemary Clooney's son you know the woman that sang come ona my house back in the late 50s early 60s.
Yes, Anne Lewis, Murphy's partner, survived, she returns in _RoboCop 2._ She wore body armour so her torso was protected, and Boddicker "merely" shot her with a pistol from range and missed her head. So despite her lack of body armour, her chances were good to survive until the paramedics arrived.
The board member who smiles and gives a thumbs up is happy because he just got promoted. Also he's probably in Bob's position, so Jones is a direct threat to his safety. And thirdly because it seems like Bob was his friend, so even though they're all insane, he likely has some feelings about Jones.
Man our childhood was something else… cuz I watch all these HARD Rated R movies when I was a kid… man and those movies were frackin worth it!!! And Robocop in particular!!!! ❤
This is such a entertaining movie of what they thought the future was going to be like. Crazy on so many levels, like common sense is a thing of the past. To find a robot that remembers his human origins get his justice for the human loss he experienced was so satisfying.
Nobody thought this was what the future would be like. What are you, an exo-archaeologist from Planet Retardo, here to study Earth culture? This is a silly action movie with a scifi setting, it’s frikkin’ great, and I wish Planet Retardo would send us better archaeologists.
@@MarcosElMalo2Stupido , seems you are accurately named. Talking about common sense has disappeared, another confirmation by you that it has indeed. So sad.
oboCop/Murphy is not a robot, but a cyborg.
The ED-209 is a robot.
Not far off in terms of rampant crime going mostly unpunished. Thankfully it's mostly economic crime not violent stuff like in the movie.
Robocop imagines a future where:
The police have militarised their training and equipment to a point where they are almost indistinguishable from the army.
Where most of the world is at war, or on the brink of war.
Where corporations are growing as powerful as the nations they reside in, and wringing profits out of public services and national agencies.
Where broadcast media consists of dumbed down news, vacuous entertainment and gratuitous commercials.
Where the gap between rich and poor has become a chasm.
Where AI becomes an ever more worrying threat to human society.
Where officials feel empowered to employ violence to overturn a democratic election result.
Is their vision of what the 2020s will be like _really_ all that far off?
(And yes the film is also definitely crazy!)
Out of all the reactions I've watched to this. You girls are the first to know how her recognized robocop at the gas station. Everyone is always confused and thinks he recognized his mouth. Always Love your reactions. Thanks.
lol i think this traumatized me as a child. the toxic waste scene and murphy's brutal death was engrained into memory
Same here. I actually felt so sorry for him even though I hated him. Haha!
Y'all really went back in time for this one i was born 2 years before this came out lol awesome reaction ladies ❤
One of my favorites. I love the stop motion and soundtrack of the movie. I was just wondering how old are you both? great reaction.
Did ya'll notice that even though this movie was very satirical, the actual violence was never played for laughs. It's dead serious when it happens, which you would think in a movie like this it would be part of the satire, but no, it's horrific
C’mon, the toxic waste death wasn’t played for laughs? It was sick humor, maybe you didn’t find it funny, but it was humor just the same.
@MarcosElMalo2 Oh, I found it very funny, even when I was a kid, but I usually laugh at stuff like that anyway regardless of the seriousness of the scene or not.
I can't wait to see your reaction. This is one of the best sci-fi movies of the 80's. Also, a technique known as stop motion animation was used for Ed 209, which is why it looked janky when walking. This movie also had a heightened tone and its subtext was about corporate greed. But most importantly, it’s about a machine becoming a man, when at the time, many movies focused on men becoming machines.
Do people these days really are no longer familiar with stop motion animation? The hand-animating technique is still used, esp in claymation films. o_O
Sometimes, using actual miniature models + stop motion animation, or larger animationics, just look more "real" than crappy CGI, because the models have actual weight. Both were used along with CGI for the first _Jurassic Park_ mivie. Sure, modern CGI has become amazing, if you have the right budget and the skills to use it properly; but for best effects it's combined with mocap and facial capture and FX. Spline curves can do a lot of work so the animators no longer have to animate every frame separately, but the movement still looks more real if actual actors play the part before a CGI model is overlayed on them
"Corporate greed" is just a cowardly deflection from CAPITALISM.
Before IRONMAN
We have Robocop
My old man let me watch this film when I was 5 years old and I never look back. My mom wasn’t happy he let me watch this hard R lol😂
I saw this when I was 7 in theaters. This and Predator immediately became my favorite movies EVER...
An all time classic...Glad you both reacted to this one.
Perfect movie lol.. you should check out Starship Troopers. It's from the same director and just as fun 😂
It still blows my mind seeing Clarence being red Forman on that 70s show.
Call the morgue 🤣 Ed 209 sent old boy straight to the shadow realm 🤣
You guy's need to check this movie called The Fly from 1986 or this movie called the Abyss
3:13 In the 80's, people didn't wait for others to get it the car 😅🤣
One of my all time favorite science fiction films! So awesome you got to experience it!
I subscribe to many reaction channels. This channel has the lamest, dead pan delivered, monotone opening of all of them and for some reason I LOVE it. Keep it up!
The actor playing Bob Morton is Miguel Ferrer, son of actress Rosemary Clooney and actor Jose Ferrer, making him cousin of actor George Clooney.
The ER team that worked on Murphy was a real ER team.
Kudos, guys! Out of all the people I have seen reacting to this movie so far, you are the first to pick up on the fact that the reason Murphy stayed alive after being hit by so many bodyshots, was that vest that they made such a big deal about every cop wearing earlier in the film. My compliments 👍
My favorite Paul Verhoeven movie and second favorite Basil Poledouris film score.
12:30 - When he signed up for the police force, he signed up as an organ donor. Or in the words of Ziggy, 'I registered as an organ donor without giving it much thought'.
6:02 "that's what i'm thinking." -jyn 🤣
He was thinking, I just got promoted to Vice President!
A lot of new viewers these days are seeing the directors cut as their first watch. The first time I saw this, it was cut for content from the theatrical version, pan and scanned, but most importantly. Glorious to my tiny little brain on a Saturday afternoon.
Amazing classic one of my favorites from my childhood RoboCop directed by Paul Verhoeven starring by Peter Weller, Nancy Allen, Ronny Cox, Daniel O'Herlihy, Miguel Ferrer, Kurtwood Smith and music score by Basil Poledouris. This film has two sequels and one remake RoboCop 2 (1990) RoboCop 3 (1993) and RoboCop (2014) Thank you ladies great reaction excellent.
Your comment reads like it's written by AI.
@@kuhpunkt All of his comments do. 😆
There this movie that’s it theme lines up with 1:15 in a terrifying way called Repoman who hunts down people who have kept with the payments and takes it back
20:39 that line..... awesome
16:50 "And i want a bigger office!"
🤨 A _bigger office?_ Tell me this man is not under the impression he's going back to _work_ after this.
You've got to do STARSHIP TROOPERS. It's the same director as this
Loved watching you guys’ reaction, it’s such a silly movie but it works 😂
Everyone already knows that this movie is awesome.
One thing I feel like anyone who sees it for the first time needs to know is that this movie is a "parody/caricature" of business and police and tech.
By that I mean that you shouldn't question why some things happen or just are in the movie. For example, the fact that a guy is killed in the board room and the others decide: "Ok, so I guess everyone takes a 15 minute break while the cleaning stuff takes care of this?"
It's like saying: "The Pediatric hospital burned down last night with over 20 victims. But the Casino and the liquor store next to it only suffered minor damage. So it was "mostly peaceful" development."
The remake of this is also really good. A slightly different spin on the story and better graphics but IMO just as good.
Love your obsession with iron butt. 😂
✌️❤️🇬🇧
You two are legends
5:30 what's really horrible is that someone thought giving a prototype robot live ammo for an indoor presentation was a good idea. What could go wrong right.🤣😂🤣😂
9:26 I am thinking there should be a fan video of Disney evil hyenas Shenzi, Banzai and Ed with the Boddicker gang laughs over the hyena clips, but I tried finding a video like that, but nothing yet.
5:59 "a glitch!?" -ryl 😮😆
You forgot one think: He was in armor suit, that's why he was still alive...
35:38..She'll be fine, Ryl..she had a vest on and in the sequel fully recovered. A few after movie facts, ladies...Old Detroit's still crime-ridden and the city is bankrupt. There are many efforts to turn it around, but it's not going to be easy. Ford's new Taurus debuted in this film (The cop cars) and it was the best advertising they could've got...sold millions. Dependable, good looking and mechanically freindly, many still on the road today. And both San Fransisco and L.A. now have prototype " riot control " robots ready on standby with military combat capability. Fun reactions-- liked this film just as much as you two!!
I sustain myself off rudimentary paste too, so good.
Hands down, one of the best satires of Regan-era America.
The actor Peter Weller who played robocop was losing body fluids and getting dehydrated because the robocop suit was made of real life heavy armor
If you watch videos of the latest developments from Boston Dynamics they are kind of getting near to this technology. They could probably make an actual working ED-209 now, hopefully minus the "glitches".
5:39 "wha... paramedic? he's gon...call the morgue. he's dead." -ryl 😆
Now that the Ladies have watched RoboCop. You can watch Starship Troopers. Or watch RoboCop 2 and 3, then watch ST.
Alex was wearing body armor and if looking where they were shooting it was primarily in the chest this likely means that the armor prevented the bullets from entering but the kinetic energy was causing the effect like powerful punches
8:53 it was a 🤏🏾 little situation. If it was a big one it would have been obvious to Lewis HAHAHA.
My husband favorite for sound affects…lovelovelove 🍁✌🏻❤️
11:52 LED in 1987
33:31 Now as I understand it, no makeup or prosthetics were used during rehearsals for this scene, so the horrified reaction we see, here, on this guy's face is genuine.
6:58 "what kind of kick is that?" -jyn 😄
Great reaction ladies love this films, You have to react to Get Over It from 2001 it’s a very funny underrated teen comedy one my favorite films I’m sure you will enjoy it!
Call the paramedic? The dudes has more holes in him than Swiss cheese. What are the paramedics gonna do?
What always strikes me is when they first introduce ED-209. When dick says the robot is currently programmed for urban pacification. I'm all for upholding law, order but this line gives me nasty shivers all the time. Do comply or there will be war. Nothing in between. But that's the charm of older movies. They were sometimes over the top, violent or offensive at least for modern standards. But at least cinema back then was all about entertainment.
one plot hole when murphy n lewis move alongside the van, i dont get why they dont shoot the tyres on the van
Your channel is really cool! best whishes from Sweden , best whishes!
You say Clarence and his gang are cruel, but they literally started off with them saying the guy has a kill count of 31 cops.
Clarence Boddicker - is the father from That 70s show.
Nancy Allen was from Carrie and from Dressed to Kill
Leon was from Twin Peaks
Bob Morton was from Crossing Jordan
and Peter Weller was admiral marcus in the new star trek reboot movies
Rest in Peace, Miguel Ferrer.
37:14 "What about his partner."
Oh, she's at the hospital, at this point. Remember the famous rule. No body, no death.
She's in pretty bad shape, and she'll have to undergo a _lot_ of surgery and care. After that, she'll have to undergo a period of recovery, but she'll be alright.
5:25
OMG, They've Killed Kinney, Those Bastards
Continue on the Verhoeven train. Please do Starship Troopers and Benedetta.
The Robocop “fap” meme is hilarious. 😂
Ex Machina is a newer movie (great movie and short) that deals with a.i. and stuff like this too.
It's so sad what heappens to Murphy.
I would love to do a RoboCop cosplay, down to the opening thigh compartments and sliding gun holsters, but that would be time consuming and expensive to replicate.
Body armor can make the difference between simply dead and beat up badly but you get to go home at the end of the day. Most body armor issued to police and military even now can stop hits from shotguns. The person wearing that armor is still going to feel the hit and get bruised up and know they had a bad day but the get to live. If murphy had recieved medical treatment fast enough even with that many hits and the traumatic amputation he would have had at least a fighting chance if the arm had been tourniqueted to slow down/stop the loss of blood. It really was the bullet to the brain that ended him. And even with a bullet in his breain it actually is believeable that he would have made it to the hospital and had them at least try to save him. It is far from common but there are a fair number of documented cases of people being shot in the head and surviving with some rare cases of them living normal lives.
I never understood why the Ed 209 had live ammo for the test. That’s bad planning
Robocop .....Brilliant film
You might also like the movies Total Recall 1990, or Chappie, or District 9, or Minority Report.
I was this movie in the theater back in the day. There a new movie coming soon. 😅
Robocop is metal as f*ck. Quite literally.
Robocop is a detroit icon. we are supposed to have a statue put up soon.
I'll buy that for a dollar 💵
Great reaction, love your smiles.
You can remove reaction for a cartoon Leafie a hen into the wild. This one is wonderful cartoon underestimated. And from the ending l started crying 😞😭.
You say that Officer Lewis should not be moving after taking so many rounds. You really should check out Donut Operator. He has debunked this many times there are people who have taken 24-50+ rounds and were still going. Some were on substance while others were just pure adrenaline. The human body is truly amazing on what it can endure.
I wonder if Bob Morton sabotaged ED-209?
both of you are super cute
You girls from Canada? I’m trying to place your accents. Sounds like a Toronto accent to me. I’m in western Canada that’s why I’m curious. Great reaction to a legendary flick btw 👍
I don't know how the movie could have made it more clear they were wearing bullet proof vest, they were on the outside clear as day and a good inch thick. People always seem to be baffled by this.
for the toxic waste part...you ask why...ya...adrenaline...desperation and being scared shitless does give you strenght to try and survive
