Random story.
My grandfather took me to the discount theater back when we lived in Mexico i was like 5(?), we watched robocop. He thought it was a kids movie and quickly realized it wasn't.
As i got older every time he would come visit we would watch robocop at least once...
Good memories

"Dead or alive, you're coming with me."
Turns out that line doesn't work so well on the schoolyard, got detention for using it as a kid.

I love this movie. Peter Weller gives the performance of a lifetime.

Unfortunately they just don't make movies like this anymore, I was 15 when this came out and is still my favourite movie of all time. An absolute timeless classic!!

This is Verhoeven at his best. A perfect society satire, a bloody, gorry, totally explicit masterpiece. Such movies today cannot be made anymore. With the trademark TV spots and News shots what all reflects the human stupidity and consumer oriented world. Big thumbs up to Peter Weller that he made all the suffer to make this character alive, and also for Minty to this comprehensive lookback. Thanks a lot man. Keep going on :)

Robocop, Total Recall, Starship Troopers. The Verhoeven golden trilogy.

Bob Morton was definitely a villain. He didn't just bring Murphy back as as Robocop - he was directly responsible for his death in the first place! In a line of dialogue early on, Morton says "We've restructured the police department with some good candidates" - meaning that Murphy was specifically targeted - he was put in danger (and backup was withheld) deliberately by OCP.

"Bitches Leave." Still cracks me up after all these years, Clarence was a bad ass villain! Also worth mentioning, Basil Poledouris composed the amazing film score as well as the Conan The Barbarian score.

Smug critics in the 80s weren't able to
recognize what an absolute Masterpiece this was and still is !

"Your move, creep." Man, what a fun movie. Thanks, Minty! A fun romp down memory lane.

I was a boy in the 80s who took everything for granted or if could go back I'd savor every minute

My uncle actually bought me a copy of robocop as a kid and I watched it to holds up today...a classic.

[aaronburratwood.]

I couldn’t imagine anyone but Peter Weller playing Murphy, he made both characters amazing.

Robocop was truly lightning in a bottle. Everything about this film screamed B movie but it turned out to be an instant classic because of the passionate crew.

I remember my parents rented this when a child. We were visiting my grandparents for Christmas in Saskatchewan in the middle of nowhere in a small town. And I was blown away. I must of watched that movie over and over. It was another movie placed in my favorite movie library.

I'm SO glad I was a child of the 80s... movies were SO f*cking awesome!!!

[shaggycan]

Masterpiece. I also really love how the entire film is full of character actors instead of 'stars'. Amazing score by criminally under rated Basil Poledouris.

[RockfrdDrm]

Awesome flick, I never get tired of it even after nearly 35 years.

[Cee_Nelly]

Oh man I was about 8 or 9 when this came out and got to see it in the theaters! Gotta love the 80s.

I used to literally watch this everyday on VHS as a kid. Absolutely one of my favorite movies of all time.

I LOVE this film. It’s the kind of film that draws you into the story, the characters, and the action. And it somehow manages to still be extremely relevant nowadays due to the themes like society, morality, and a person’s humanity.
