that's not calling robocop satire....that's just saying they needed a lil humor to break the serious tone/flow of the movie, which robocop had....but it wasnt satire....starship troopers, yes...robocop, no....

He's done it before breh that was the best i could find. Trust me its out there if you look

I feel your movies, especially “RoboCop” and “Starship Troopers,” had something to say, whereas the sequels could be dumb.
Yeah. That’s what I felt, yeah. And it came out of the movie in an organic way — what it meant. The layers that were there — especially with the most political movie, “Starship Troopers.” It’s never that we thought, We’re going to do a representation of the United States as a metaphor. On the other hand, many elements of the movie came from American life ... it was all based on things that were vaguely there in American life. Especially in Texas and stuff like that ... but we never set out to do that. We needed something to put our point of view also there, you know? We don’t think this is so great in anyway, this kind of, “let’s go to war, let’s kill.”

Paul Verhoeven, 'Tricked' Director, On The 'RoboCop' And 'Total Recall' Remakes | The Huffington Post

The screenplay had been offered to (and been rejected by) virtually every big director in Hollywood before Paul Verhoeven got hold of it. He threw it away after reading the first pages, convinced it was just a dumb action movie. However, his wife read it all the way through and convinced him that the story was layered with many satirical and allegorical elements, after which Verhoeven finally decided to direct the film.

If u wanna see a bad movie

Watch the wraith on Netflix

Pure 1980s bullsh*t
Charlie Sheen was the star of this nonsense and he was missing for pretty much the entire middle section of the film while the Ghost Car goes on a murder spree.

I never understood what the plot of belly even was, but I've watched it so many times.:ohhh:

Half baked is another I would add.:ehh:

A guilty pleasure would be leprechaun in the hood, Halloween resurrection, american pie 1 & 2. I can't deny that it's entertaining:manny:

ANybody ever see Love and a Bullet?
It starred Treach from Naughty By Nature and the one thing I remember that was so hilarious about this shytty movie was Treach's character starts having a flashback and in his flashback an entirely different character starts having a flashback and the movie never goes back to Treach's initial flashback.
It was crazy.
