Ok, I have another 80s movie for you: Repo Man (1984). It's kind of a comedy, though it's sort of futuristic (for its time) and a bit sarcastic like Robocop. You will also probably recognize the main character (though he's very young in it).

I remember watching this movie for the first time 4 years ago thinking “Eh, I’ll give this movie a shot, just to see what all the fuss is about”, and then being absolutely surprised at how this satirical action movie managed to make me feel so bad for the hero and rooting for him like I would for any of my favorite childhood superheroes. And Peter Weller absolutely KILLS it as Murphy/Robocop. There’s a great KZitem video of Peter talking about what it was like to not only wear the suit (which when first testing out putting on the suit would take up to 10 HOURS to put on, then narrowed down to 8) but also how he came up with the movements. Also because of the triple digit heat in Dallas where they filmed most of it, he would sweat off up to 3 pounds per day!

So yeah, Murphy as a rookie cop being placed into a hellhole was completely intentional and he was setup to die.

"Murphy." and then that little grin as he walks away.... (such a FUCK YEAH! moment that still gets me pumped every time I see it) I'll add something I saw another commenter say in a different reaction that I never picked up on when I first watched this movie. If you listen closely and put together some pieces, The Robocop program/OCP took over the police department and "restructured" the force to bring the best cops to the most dangerous precincts, and then when they went out on dangerous calls, OCP's dispatch purposefully refused to send back up to their locations in the hopes they would be killed so they could be harvested for the Robocop program. Bob Morton mentions this restructuring of the police department in his initial pitch of the Robocop program, and when pursuing the bad guys, you can hear Murphy repeatedly call for backup and he's repeatedly told that backup isn't available. Bear in mind, OCP also owned and operated the same hospital where Murphy was sent and ultimately harvested for the Robocop program. Pretty messed up.

Gavan is an intergalactic peace-keeping police officer donning metallic cybernetic armor battling the evil forces of the Space Crime Syndicate Makuu. Even though the show never aired in America, this movie’s director Paul Verhoeven watched the show in his hotel room while visiting Japan and apparently enjoyed it so much it lead to creating one of the greatest science fiction and action movies ever made.

There was no "predicting" and although the decline of the auto industry played a part, it wasn't the primary cause. "White flight" away from the urban city centers was the primary cause. Not just Detroit, but in MANY cities like LA and NY saw hordes of middle class people take their tax revenues to the suburbs. In Detroit, the people left behind then had decreased income due to the declining auto industry. The riots in the late 60's, plus later fires in the 70's left large parts of Detroit abandoned. So as NY & LA recovered somewhat, Detroit didn't have the tax revenue to do the same. Escape from New York was filmed in these abandoned areas in Detroit back in 80/81.

@tessmage_tessera Not in the same ballpark. The '80s were a lull between two huge upsurges in film creativity in the decade before and after, and even most critically-acclaimed films from the '80s are unwatchably boring, doctrinaire, and devoid of imagination. Most are now forgotten even among film buffs. No one would say the same of the decade just before or just after. If someone asked you to recommend a hilarious comedy, would anyone ever suggest "Splash"? Or "Arthur"? Would someone asked for deep, engaging dramas recommend "Reds"? Or "Terms of Endearment"? It's never occurred to me to do that, and I've never heard anyone else do it either. The films of the '80s are mostly tedious, paint-by-numbers exercises in exhaustion. We just think they were something else because of the extremely rare exceptions that people still watch.

Paul Verhoeven is pretty well known for how ultraviolent his action movies are. I think that he is able to get away with so much gruesome blood and gore because he goes so over the top with it that it's almost cartoonishly absurd and can't be taken seriously. He's also known for instilling his movies with satire and social commentary. He directed Starship Troopers, and much like Robocop, it also features some brutal violence and some strongly satirical themes.

Because Paul Verhoeven is Dutch, and his director of photography for this scene, Jost Vocano, is German, they didn't realize how offensive a pejorative "b**ch" is in English, and when they were directing this scene, they kept referring to and addressing the two actresses as "b**ches." The actresses took it in stride, and Kurtwood Smith (Clarence) and Miguel Ferrer (Bob) kept cracking up between takes.

There are three films from Stephen King and directed by Frank Darabont (The Walking Dead). They are "The Green Mile" which you guys have seen, "The Shawshank Redemption" (1994) a very popular film with reactor views, and "The Mist" (2007). The Mist is a very unusual horror film.

This was a great reaction, Kacee! I am glad to see you finished off the loose "trilogy" with the first and what I think is the best (though I love them all). I have a couple of recommendations for you for more sci-fi/action from the '80s: The Hidden and They Live.

Peter Weller is such a method actor that, he wanted everybody to address him as Robocop or Murphy whenever he was in costume, so Kurtwood Smith went out of his way to call him Peter.

This is one of my favourite movies of all time. One of the cool things about this movie he sounds mechanical, but once he starts getting his humanity back he starts sounding like the original Alex Murphy again.

robocop perfected what total recall and starship troopers tried to recapture -- the seemingly impossible fusion of sci-fi, horror, satire, drama and social commentary. one of my favorites. sfx by rob bottin, who worked on john carpenter's the thing.

But its true at that point, the whole underlying arc is him regaining his humanity from the moment when he resurects as a product all the way to the last scene and him calling himself “Murphy”. So her comment is spot on I’d say.

Robocop was our first exposure to Paul Verhoeven. Ultra violent and bloody, what a thrilling time when this came out. Yes, that's Red from 70's show and the way he was cast as a bad guy with glasses made him even more evil. Love the toxic waste man. Hilarious!

The thin line between seriousness, satire and sarcastic comedy in Paul Verhoeven movies is so good. The failed testing of ED-209 is a good example. Why would you do a test in an executive meeting with an experimental robot with real ammo and no plan b to shut the machine down in case of failure? lol. This movie is so over the top but so good. A true action sci-fi masterpiece.

To answer a couple questions.. Murphy survived because he was wearing a ballistic vest. They can be very resilient especially against what I assume was 12 gauge buckshot. That’s why you saw the arm blown completely off. Second, even if Robocop was shot in the face area it would make no difference. His “face” is merely grafted onto an exoskeleton to make him more appealing to the public. If I’m not mistaken his brain is the only organ left.

Finally a reaction to the Director's Cut. The line "We placed candidates all through the force" means something else entirely when the next scene is Murphy being transferred to the most lethal police station in the USA.

Oh yeah, Total Recall. Verhoeven did the genius thing of including things that only possible if the events are real (like events that Quaid would not have been aware of), and things that are only possible if they're not (like impossible coincidences), while making them both not too difficult to explain away. The outcome is that the viewer has to pick which truth is the right one.
