This was when Robocop was good and OCP was a serious corporation with a professional CEO and board, by the third movie its basically a comic book script for kids with OCP ran by hammy badly acted idiots. P.s Weyland, Union Aerospace corp, OCP, has anyone noticed that capitalism creates some pretty awful results in those universes, I'm glad reality isn't like that. Apple. Google. Facebook. Microsoft. Amazon. Pfizer. Monsanto. BP. Exon.

[@puffpuffpassmako]

Lets give the old man credit for being such a genius. He remembered Murphy's Directive 4 restriction, and used OCPs poor programming to exploit a loophole. He knew firing the CEO would bypass the restriction immediately

[@gregfalco4528]

He probably didn't know about the directives as he wasn't actually part of the Robocop project. It was when Robo walked in and told him, "My program will not allow me to act against an officer of this company," the old man put 2+2 together. But yeah, he knew EXACTLY what to do in that moment. You don't become a billionaire by accident, I guess.

I know, right? You'd expect it to be some dumb 80's action movie, but it actually has a lot of satire and commentary on the state of commercialism, excessive crime at the time (specifically in Detroit), and it has a lot of depth in exploring Murphy after he becomes Robocop and his struggle with his memories from before and attempting to regain his humanity. I mean it also does have a lot of action and whatnot, but there's so much more to the movie, is the thing. Verhoeven's always been good at doing that.

There's a game that recreates that sensation 100%.

Not only do you have to clean up the blood, guts, brass and body parts left behind (along with the takeout containers, empty drinks, and snack bags), but in that level, there's also security turrets that you have to replace, remount, and reload, but the IFF doesn't always work right, and when it acts up, it WILL shoot you. The first time it happens, you end up cussing a blue streak, because not only did you die as the damn janitor, now you have to also clean up your former body's bullet-riddled corpse AND the mess it made.

[@yeehaa7108]

Never noticed it until just now. The gun Jones pulls out of the box is a Desert Eagle, which was the pistol the filmmakers originally intended to give Robocop because it's such a huge handgun. The problem they encountered was that Robocop's final look was so big that it even made the Desert Eagle look small. As a consequence, they shelved the Desert Eagle and gave him a modified Beretta 93R and called it the Auto 9. However, it seems like they kept the Desert Eagle around and gave it to Jones for this one scene, a nice little easter egg!

[@F1god04]

Also, Kurtwood Smith’s character uses two variants exclusively as well. They’re just dark colored. I own one, and they’re massive. The irony is that a Beretta M93 is smaller than a DE, but they modified it to be bigger.

[@JohnLuckPickard141]

You’d think Dick would still be listed as employed in the OCP database, which is ideally what RoboCop’s memory would be connected to. But instead, it appears in the OCP, the boss’s word is literally law

[@TheTurnipKing]

1988 somewhat predated the idea of online databases. Hence why Robo has to go to police HQ and log in to using his big metal spike in order to use the photofit, So, when Robo hears the CEO proclaim that Dick Jones is fired, that's enough to remove the limit of Directive 4. At which point Jones is still holding a gun, which in turn authorizes the use of force because he could turn it on anyone present. His memory, admissible as evidence, would back him up.

[@anunc8797]
