The combination of that fantastic looking suit, Weller's amazing robotic movements and the great sound effects really convince me that Robocop is a REAL cyborg. Beats CGI any day.

[@ShaneMakesMovies]

@Beau Littzen I wouldn't say that, CGI does have its advantages and has helped make some movies that seemed impossible to make at one point a reality. It just has to be used intelligently. Like Jurassic Park or T2.

[@ShaneMakesMovies]

I'm not backtracking on my original point either, I think both practical and digital effects both have a place. For a convincing cyborg, definitely make a suit. For a T-Rex terrorizing people in the rain, use CGI.

From what I understand, Morton wanted the human brain cyborg concept because the ed209 was buggy. So the idea was to wipe the brain from memory and allow it to be used as the "processor" behind the robocop concept. The prime directives are in place so that the brain could function solely as a cop instead of a human. Later in the film, he started having dreams and the techs wanted to pull him in for a analysis but Morton got upset because a lot was riding on its success. His career was getting a huge bump because of robocop and for it to be pulled and having to have pricey repairs would make the old man upset because the ed209 already failed and now robocop has to have this pricey maintenance. So with that said, Murphy sort of re-awakened and realized he came back as a machine and the prime directives don't really matter anymore but as a fail safe where he can't violate any of them. @@voidseeker4394

[@EdgyNumber1]

@@the_dook2145 Agree. When the composer gets a good picture to work on with strong stories or potential iconic scenes, they can get a theme together and build it through there. One good example of a scene that looks iconic, even though the film was pants, was the introduction to the starship Enterprise in dry dock in Star Trek: The Motion Picture. Very bombastic tune with naval military style theme (Jerry Goldsmith?) The theme to the tune is very important, get that right and the rest becomes easy. If you listen to the Robocop theme, initially it sounds kind of corporate techy. Then when you get further in, it takes on a Lone Ranger kind of theme. Very strong tune.

This movie is a masterpiece.. Used to love it when I was a kid, and now I watch it and see how good movies used to be, with a lot less censorship and so on.. Movies like this one, T2 or Predator are amazing classics that will never be emulated again...

I watched this movie when I was 6 and today 40 years later I showed my son this clip and just like his father he was in total awe when the gun went into his leg -the reaction I saw in his face was exactly how I reacted when I was 6. ROBOCOP a timeless classic and the music oh my lord! Ta ta ta tann tann ta ta ta tannnnnn!

[@zonesquestiloveunderworld]

Man I absolutely LOVE the way the developers of the "RoboCop: Rogue City" game recreated the entire police station including the caged area where they're running diagnostics on him at the start as well as the shooting range - complete with the exact same black humanoid targets! Plus, shooting that gun in-game feels great, it's got just the right amount of oomph. Highly recommended for any fan of this movie.

This might not be the most high-brow movie out there, but it is a very special movie indeed. The acting, the dialogue, the directing, the cinematography, the score - all of it lifts these 100 minutes of science-action far, far above and beyond what could have easily amounted to a turd on a stick. In my opinion, Robocop ranks among the best of the best. And while I'm on a complimentary roll: I still don't know how Peter Weller and Moni Yakim did it. Those staccato robotic movements I mean. I've re-watched many a scene wherein Weller simply turns his robotic head and locks it in place -- and each and every time I find myself inexplicably transfixed. While it's just some guy in a costume turning his head for Christ's sake! That, for me, is what art attains: a kind of beauty that invites you to explain it, yet leaves you at a loss of words. There's a lot of that in this movie.

[@ilconteorlok9299]

Incongruent I you are right bro. I couldn’t tell it better then you ...

[@DireAxis]

You've put my own feelings into words. I have watched Cinema from anywhere it is made and have come to appreciate with great enthusiasm all that it can create. Still, I comeback to a movie I watched as a child and only started to grasp in early adulthood. From just about every aspect of production, this is rock solid and is a masterstroke. The pinnacle still for me of the "Ghost in the Machine" Even just Robocop's entrance in the police station, the reaction of the cops and the simple sound of those footsteps and obscuring Murphy's figure behind the glass. He looks like Frankenstein's monster, a giant. Brilliant, brilliant stuff.

That’s amazing that Robocop can even create ammo out of thin air enough to make that magazine have about a 180 round capacity for a pistol!

[@memes_the_dna_of_the_soul5487]

Technically, the magazines were stored in the wrist. This means reloads could be performed extraordinary quickly.

[@memes_the_dna_of_the_soul5487]

Also, there is no indication that his arm can't just feed the bullets directly into his pistol.

[@AshleyPomeroy]

@@memes_the_dna_of_the_soul5487 I always assumed he had some kind of ammo feed running through his arm as well. Also this was the 1980s. Guns had more bullets then. Although given that he had perfect aim I always wondered why he didn't just fire accurate single shots.

[@napalmstickylikeglue]

​@@memes_the_dna_of_the_soul5487This was supposed to take place in the future. The weapon had a futuristic 50 round magazine. It was actually a heavily modified Beretta 93r. Which generally used 20 round mags.
