The Original Robocop In 87 Is Easily One Of The Top 10 Action Movies Of All Time

[DetroitEWarren]

Drunk as hell watching this shyt right now at my mama's house and she keeps cutting into me about how I used to watch this shyt every single day as a kid. I absolutely loved the hell out of this movie as a kid, and even now, shyt aged well as hell. Til this day, everytime I see it on TV I gotta watch that shyt. Its just that damn good. From beginning to end with the action, the quotables from the cast, the fight with the robot, when he went to the OCP building, ect. The movie is an underrated classic and i'd put it on the sam level as Terminator 1 and the 1st Matrix. What do you nikkas think?

Yea it was good. #3 was

Yeah bro. 2 was also good as fukk, just not as good as 1 (in Terminator's case 2 was much better than 1). 3 was trash cause they went to PG13 for absolutely no reason and the script was trash. IDK why the fukk they tried to make 3 all friendly and shyt smh.

Same with the new remake. I actually liked the movie, but Robocop was a great movie because of the violence that you cant portray with it being pg13. As I said though, I did kinda like the new remake

Definitely up there as one of my favorite movies. I just recently bought the new Blu Ray version like a year ago and the movie still holds up for the most part except for some of the motion capture scenes. It's a shame that even with the technology today the remake couldn't touch the original movie in all aspects of the movie.

shyt was too raw...there's no way this shyt should have been marketed towards kids...the 80s

Great film...but when it comes to Paul Verhoeven....Starship Troopers >>>

Both films are amazing though...they *really* straddle the line between being genuine..and satire. Probably better than any action movies I've ever seen. Most of the films like that nowadays have to be all in your face about it...they aren't smart or brave enough to let some people think they are "real". Robocop can be viewed by some as "hell yeah, clean up Detroit!" as opposed to a bizarre critique on extreme law enforcement. SST can be viewed as a simple sci-fi movie, as opposed to a critique on politics, punditry, and war. But that's what makes them work for me.

Real shyt.


I like Terminators rawness, it's maybe my favorite of that Era but Aliens is my shyt. All the film's are neck and neck, they just too dope.
