RoboCop 3 > RoboCop 2
>>219836089Same situation with nuWars 7 and 8, or Toy Story 3 and 4, or Robocop 2 and 3.Both sucked, but the second one sucked less.Oddly the public fellates the shittier first one and slams more criticism on the second one.Makes me wonder if there's some level of opinion coordination to make people eat two pieces of shit and only complain about the second one, even when its carefully made slightly less shitty.
>>219836089Quite frankly, RoboCop 2 mostly annoys me, it's not a good movie so there's very little enjoyment that comes from watching it, at least 3 is stupid enough to be fun.
>>219836151i had a film professor insist it 2 was better than the original.
>>219836151I like the suit better in RoboCop 2, and there are moments of brilliance, but overall the film isn't very cohesive. 3 might be a little watered down, but at least it's a stronger story.
>>219836182Why do they keep changing the suit? Do they keep trashing it between films?
>>219836151It really shows how much the script went through different writers.
>>219836089Shove your ragebait up your ass, faggot.
>>219836234The suits on the first film was extremely cumbersome and took a long time to put on, there were also issues with the paint that caused the suits to need repairing and repainting every night. For the second film they made a new suit with sturdier materials, they also changed the colours to photograph better. The new suit required less maintenance and was much easier for Weller and the team to put on, though apparently because the crotch section was no longer made of foam rubber it was a little harder to walk in.The suit in RoboCop 3 is the same suit from 2, just with more toned down colours. Orion told Fred Dekker that he needed to try and keep the budget down and to re-use the RoboCop 2 suit, which meant needing to find an actor who was basically the same size to replace Weller. Poor John Burke though was slightly taller and had a larger head, which meant that the suit frequently cut into his skin during filming.
>>219836089>RoboSlop 3>RoboKino 2
>>219836089no
>>219836135I don't get why people say the second movie is bad. The first one is great, and an 80s classic, but the second one is a decent action movie in its own right, and it manages to retain some of the atmosphere from the first movie. I'd rate it far above something like Terminator 3 or Alien 3, and on par with Predator 2, which is also inferior to the first movie, but still a decent action movie.Robocop 3 is just pure trash, and unwatchable.
>>219836089RoboCop > RoboCop 2 = RoboCop Rogue City > Robocop 3 > Remake
>>219836089Robocop 2 is a good sequel and Robocop 3 is absolute trash. Do we really have to blatantly lie to get post engagement?
>>219836440Zoomers are mentally ill faggots who rely on ragebait and clicks, because they've grown up with an internet and a media driven by algorithms. It's been like this on 4chan for at least a decade by now, but it keeps getting worse every year, and the mods simply allow it.
>>219836440>Do we really have to blatantly lie to get post engagement?No lie, I genuinely think 3 is the stronger film.
>>219836506I hope someone shoots you in the dick.
>>219836503>ZoomersIt's really gonna burn your butt when I tell you I'm not a zoomer then.
>>219836561Isn't that what the kids call a self-own?
>>219836580Not in this case. Anon was trying to imply the idea that 3 is better than 2 isn't valid because I'm a zoomer. But I'm not a zoomer so trying to discredit my position due to my age doesn't hold up.It's not that I don't like 2, I love 2, I love all three original films, I just think 3 is a stronger film and if it had been R-rated it'd probably be considered almost as good as the original.
2 has hot "science" lady though3 is a live-action version of the cartoon show
>>219836089Nice one, OP. Robocop doesn't have any sequels.
>>219836641No, the implication was that you were a zoomer because you posted ragebait.
>>2198366413 sucks. The ninja robots were stupid, the hobo resistance was stupid, flying robocop was stupid, and you’re stupid.
>>219836657>2 has hot "science" lady though3 has its own hot science lady.
>>219836666This whole board is driven by bait posts and shitty forced memes. I knew my post would draw ire, but I wouldn't have posted it if I didn't believe it to be true.I respect your quads, but reject your premise.
>>219836864So what's the alternative? That you're in your late 30s and Robocop 3 was the first action movie you watched as a kid?I mean, it's a fucking shit movie.
>>219836884>I mean, it's a fucking shit movie.I didn't say it was good (I enjoy it, but it's definitely a flawed film), just that it's better than 2. I enjoy 2 as well, but 2 is more a scattershot of interesting ideas rather than a complete story.
>>219836403Robocop 2 recycles too many things from the first film. At least Predator 2 relocates from the jungle to the city, takes a very different kind of protagonist, and further distinguishes itself with its own comic bookish visual style, a style that sometimes looks a bit like TMNT. Predator 2 does just about enough to justify its existence.Robocop 2 is Robocop doing the same shit in the same places but now without Verhoeven's magic touch.
>>219836990Well, it would be strange to see Robocop in the jungle.
>>219837090>to see Robocop in the jungle.Now I wanna see it.
>>219837217This is probably the closest you'll get.
>>219837290What film is this?
>>219837475Fifty/Fifty
>>219837556>Fifty/FiftyNoted
They made comics based on Frank Miller's original scripts and story ideas.
>>219838009I wish the art wasn't so ugly in these.
>>219836089I agree. I like that 3 is this weird kid's movie.
Would you have Nikko reprogram an ED-209 to be loyal as a puppy for you?
>>219838301That's a problem with comics in general. Even some highly regarded comics like Sandman and Preacher have shitty art.
>>219838497Those comics are vastly overrated though. It's edgy pulp slop that relies on ridiculous, cartoony stereotypes, particularly Preacher, but it's held up like it's art.
>>219838497Plenty of comics have nice art, most have passable art, but it's a travesty when a good story is saddled with bad art. To this day I have never read All-Star Superman or New X-Men because of Frank Quitely's god awful art. If I were a rich man, I'd hire another artist to re-draw the entire book from scratch.
>>219838427>little girl is actually a super hacker and shows up everyoneIt was happening even back then. And everyone seethed about Anakin building a droid and flying a spaceship just a few years later
>>219838717While I have no issues with Anakin doing what he does, it is also perfectly plausible within context for Nikko to do what she does. First you consider that Robocop is technically set in the future, now imagine what it's like with kids as young as three being able to operate tablets and smart phones like it's natural, so a level of base tech savviness makes sense. Nikko is shown to be advanced for her age with an interest in tech (specifically the tech the operates Robocop and ED-209), and finally consider the ED-209 is cheaply made and probably had fuck all in the way of safeguards, honestly it's surprising that the 209s aren't hacked more often, they probably rely on intimidation and quick triggers to dissuade opponents rather than actually efficiency.
>>219836089Legit basedRobocop 2 doesn't get the original. It loses the heart, soul, and biting wit, leaving only violence and goofball cynicismEven though 3 sells out with its PG-13 rating, it at least understands what made the first movie fun>>219836169Tell him he's retarded
>>219838919Don't be retarded. Kids today are far more computer illiterate than the preceding generation exactly because they've grown up around consumer electronics that require no actual computer knowledge.
I really wanna know the circumstance of how Martin Sheen ended up doing an uncredited voice cameo in Robocop 3.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9ypFtcw4lQ
>>219839158My point is that while Nikko is clearly demonstrated to be smart, it's more that the ED-209 is REALLY badly made.
>>219838953>Robocop 2 doesn't get the original. It loses the heart, soul, and biting wit, leaving only violence and goofball cynicism This.The movie studio also didn't want to wait for the original Robocop 1 writers and Director Paul Verhoeven to be free to direct Robocop 2. The studio rushed the sequel and hire brand new writers and a new Director.I honestly do not know why they thought that was a good idea.
>>219839453>The studio rushed the sequel and hire brand new writersWorst part is they had a script from the original writers and tossed it.That script eventually got reworked into the pilot movie for Robocop The Series, so Murphy at least got his hot hologram girlfriend in the end.
I'll watch Robocop 3 tonight.
>>219838009His Terminator vs Robocop comic was pretty good
>>219836089RoboCain carries part 2 hard. There is no villain on his level in Robo 3.
>>219839849Yeah it's great. The only truly good thing he's ever done imo
>>219839249It's still retard, and it's equally retarded in Jurassic Park. If you were a kid who grew up with computers back then, it seems even more retarded.Of course, it doesn't matter in works of fiction like that, because it's not political, and it's just superficial, dumb entertainment. It's the same as when the japs make female hackers in anime and manga. It's something that essentially doesn't exist, but it's more of a character trait to make the female characters less boring.
OP here, by Robocop 3 I meant pic related
Clarence Boddicker should come back next film and this time he has robotic spider legs
>>219839898That thing carries it, along with the presentation of the failed Robocops.
>>219838560You have no taste. Quietly's art is superb.
>>219839979ACTUAL OP here, Rogue City is fucking fantastic, but if I meant that I would have used that picture on not the movie RoboCop 3, which I did.Come into my thread speaking falsehoods like scoundrel.
>>219839924>The only truly good thing he's ever done imoIt's overshadowed by Born Again and TDKR.
>>219839999digits confirm
>>219840036Everything Quitely draws looks lumpy. It's wildly unappealing and makes all of the people he draws look monstrous.
>>219840083NTA but that's kind of the appeal. I'll agree with you that Quietly is very polarizing and it's not the kind of art I would send out in space as a demonstration of "proper" art to aliens. But it has its own appeal.
>>219839924I still get a chuckle out of Frank Miller having the running gag of dying every time he does a cameo.
>>219840055Robo vs Terminator > Batman Year One > 300 > the restMoore mogs as always
>>219836135>Toy Story 3 being compared to any of this shit
>>219840282Toy Story is a disaster of a movie and remembering its existence makes me angry.
>>219836440People who judge truth thru concensus filter rewuire constant reinforcement of the concensus
>>219839898RoboCain mogs all the other RoboCop villains sans Red Foreman, that final fight in 2 is kino you guys are retarded
>>219836151I really hate how they made the old man a straight up villain. Also expecting us to feel back for the kid, or really anything about that retarded character was asinine. The robot 2 was pretty cool
>>219840811>I really hate how they made the old man a straight up villainYou mean just like in 1?
For me? It's subtle satire
>>219839935Remember Susan Thunder?
>>219840824The Old Man was not a villain in the first movie. He actually cared about the new city, lowering crime, and giving the populace a happy safe life. It was the entire reason Robocop was created. If he was a villain only concerned with money, he'd have signed off on Jone's ED-209 long ago
>>219840979>The Old Man was not a villain in the first movieYes he was
>>219839999Spiders you say?
>>219840811>>219840824>>219840979>>219840993The OId Man was more of a passive evil in 1, he mostly just doesn't care, but 2 made him more actively evil because he was needed to fill out the corporate villain slot.
>>219839453>I honestly do not know why they thought that was a good idea.They wanted to make some money
>>219838953>Robocop 2 doesn't get the original. It loses the heart, soul, and biting wit, leaving only violence and goofball cynicismThis is just regurgitated rhetoric at this point. 2 still retains everything the original had, albeit viewed through a more jaded lens. It's still ultimate about Murphy continuing to hold onto his identity despite the world trying to tear it from him.>>219840993A better way to put it is that he wasn't maliciously evil before. Blatantly detached from the reality of what the OCP was doing, but more in the manner of big picture, "ends justify the means" thinking rather than doing as he pleases because the company's word is law.
>>219839706>android cop has a sexy hologram waifuBlade Runner 2049 ripped off Robocop
>>219837217>RoboCop teams up with Swamp Thing to take down poachers
>>219841367She's crazy cute, and it's a damn shame that there is no HD version of the show available.
>>219836089It's a shame a lot of normalfags never watch Robocop 3 since it's the final conclusion to the real storyline and real enemies behind the scenes.
>>219840951Nope. I'm reading up on her, but even she seems to have leaned into the social manipulation and data collection side of things, rather than outright hacking. That said, you'll always find anomalies like her in most male-dominated fields, with Margaret Hamilton probably being the most iconic one.It would be fun to find one in real life, but that's borderline impossible, at least in this day and age, which is rather ironic.
>>219841367Even Gaylo did that shit.
>>219836657"Hot science lady" ruins 2 thoughbeit.
>>219841965I haven't watched that piece of shit since the 90s, but weren't the enemies in Robocop 3 a bunch of japs based on Zaibatsu corporations? Also, wasn't it released well into the 90s, after the jap bubble had popped, and people no longer saw Japan as an economic and financial powerhouse that would take over America?
>>219842220>but weren't the enemies in Robocop 3 a bunch of japs based on Zaibatsu corporations?Sort of, the Kanemitsu corporation aren't really the villains, they're mostly just bankrolling OCP's floundering efforts to avoid completely collapsing. They let OCP use the Otomo, but that's it.>Also, wasn't it released well into the 90s, after the jap bubble had poppedIt was filmed in '91 and originally supposed to release in '92, but Orion's financial troubles kept it on the shelf until '93.
Robocain is cooler but ED is way more threatening.bzzzz clomp clomp
>>219842153She’s barely in it though
>>219842153It was the obnoxious kid that almost ruined Robocop 2, but it's saved by him eating a fistful of lead.
>>219842153Faxx was awesome, a psychologist without a moral compass is a cool idea. Unfortunately that's also kind of the problem with RoboCop 2, a lot of cool ideas with nothing being fully explored.
>>219842328ED is better across the board, but Cain is good enough to carry Robocop 2.That's also one of the many things makes Robocop 3 crap. It doesn't have an ED or a Cain, and the ninja robots are gay.
which movie has the most elvis skeletons ?that's right, Robocop 2that scene was so weird it's actually great
>>219842357>It was the obnoxious kid that almost ruined Robocop 2Hob is awesome though. Having a kid play a psycho druglord makes for a great villain. His gun (a DEB M21) being disguised as a little portable radio is fun as fuck.Why do people always complain about kid characters? I understand if the kid is a shit actor, but I see people complain even when the kid gives a good perfomance, like Hob, like Nikko, like John Connor. The fuck is up with that?
>>219842462well, I can't argue with that
>>219836089ROBOCOP 4 IS IN PRE PRODUCTIONLIKE ROBOCOP 3 WASN'T BAD ENOUGH
>>219836089Robocop 2 is fucking great
>>219842462>It doesn't have an EDED-209 is at the start of Robocop 3 though.
>>219842532>ROBOCOP 4 IS IN PRE PRODUCTIONIs it a movie? I heard Amazon was making a series.
>>219842532>cast old man peter weller>lewis gets resurrected in Robocop 2's body>lethal weapon with cyborgs
>>219842494Yeah Hob was a good actor. Unironically really sold his death scene. The way he was a tough gangster throughout the movie but finally when he was about to die he turned back into a kid.
>>219842494Hob is just a little shit, and his role is too cartoony and unrealistic, even for something as exaggerated and satirical as Robocop. Even as a kid, I remember hating him, and getting a lot of satisfaction out of his death.John Connor is fine though, and I'll admit the criticism directed at him is bullshit, and something I've only even registered in the past decade. I never heard anyone complaining about him in the 90s and 2000s.
>>219842693Also I'm just finding out the actor for Hob was the voice actor for Littlefoot in the first Land Before Time kek wtf
>>219842693To this day I still think that truck is one of the coolest fucking vehicles I've seen.Also Angie is using a silenced shotgun before Chigurh.
>>219842603You know what I mean. If anything, ED being included in that movie is an insult, and his scene looks like something out of Home Alone.
>>219839898I think it sucks. Cain is just a poor man's Boddicker, and that makes Robocain a mashup of Boddicker and ED-209. It's another instance of Robocop 2 recycling old parts.
>>219842746>his role is too cartoony and unrealistic, even for something as exaggerated and satirical as RobocopHe's probably the most Frank Miller type character outside Cain. If you imagine Hob in Sin City he kinda fits.
>>219842693I looked up the actor earlier, because I had a hunch that he had died, given that I don't recall seeing him in anything else. I was wrong, though. Looks like he kept getting small roles for a while, then dropped off the face of the planet 20 years ago.Good for him, I guess.
>>219842794Not everyday you see a truck with 3 windshield wipers
>>219836169Robocop 2 has a couple of fun scenes (the suicidal prototypes, the excellent miniature work, etc) but doesn't come close to the depth of original. Aliens works as an action oriented sequel to Alien; but Robocop 2 should not have taken this approach.Robocop is a perfect movie in every sense, it is the film equivalent of stepping in a puddle and falling into the Mariana trench. Nobody expected a film about a cyborg policeman, actually titled "Robocop," to be anything more than an insignificant entry into the library of endless 80's sci-fi/action B-Movie saturday afternoon-TV-filler slop. Robocop is a smart, dark, tight, cynical, deep, shocking, grotesque, and a relentlessly poignant work of genius, but on the surface it looks like a dumb action movie about a violent robot. The premise alone needs a high amount of introspection:On the surface: Officer Alex Murphy is killed in the line of duty and resurrected as a cyborg who wages a violent war on crime in future Detroit.What is actually happening: An idealistic police officer horrendously ill-equipped to handle the depraved corruption of future Detroit is consumed by evil forces with unimaginable cruelty. The society which produces such evil is completely numb to the consequences of it's own endless decadence, and if anyone actually notices the last vestiges of nobility being snuffed out, it is with a feigned sense of pity. Then, OCP, a corporation infinitely more evil than the street thugs who murdered Alex Murphy, realize they technically still own Murphy's remains, and resurrect him as an obedient, unfeeling cyborg policeman. Even after death, he still belongs to the corporation, and they demand his continued service. Between the hyperviolent street-criminals and the rich corporate overlords, it becomes apparent that the only true force of good is the soul of Alex Murphy, fighting for identity, within a cold robotic shell. Robocop is my favorite film, and is perfect. I will die on this hill.
>>219842939Please don't write like an AI.
For me, it's RoboCop: Alpha Commando
>>219839453>The studio rushed the sequel and hire brand new writers and a new Director.I mean, you could do a LOT worse than Irving Kershner... but this is something that could only really work with Verhoeven at the helm.

they fucked part 2 when they fired Frank Miller
>>219843313I immediately knew before even clicking it.

>>219843342My man.
>>219838953>it at least understands what made the first movie funlol, lmao
>>219842939>realize they technically still own Murphy's remainsThey didn't realize that after the fact. If you listen to them at the board meeting, Bob Morton did it intentionally. He says that he placed prime candidates in areas with high risk and lots of crime. The goal being that when one of them inevitably died, they would have their robocop body. Still, while it's messed up, that's how capitalism works and how a company would go about doing this task. Regular cops aren't handling it, so they need something tougher. Dick Jones is the one sabotaging any decent efforts since he just wants to put out shitty products that murder everyone but enrich himself and the company. If Murphy had to choose what happens to himself after death, I'm sure he'd have been fine carrying on as a badass cyborg cop that actually protected people and upheld the law. If they'd instead made Robocop constantly beat civilians and just enforce unreasonable rules on the civilians to benefit companies, he'd like it a whole lot less.
>>219843194>Also to be fair this game kinda has a high minimum requirements to run.It's a modern UE game.Really the biggest gripe I have with it. If you have actually been sentient before 2005, you will probably enjoy it.

>>219836089I stumbled on robocop 2 on the tv as a kid, and it was shortly before the scene of the preserved brain in the jar. It was pretty fucked up but I had to keep watching.
>>219842804I think the limited budget and of course the time constraints of doing stop motion limited how ED-209 could be used. With today's CGI they would probably have had a couple ED-209 wandering around in the final battle.

>>219844231Firstly, I didn't write the post you're referring to. Secondly that anon is clearly listing things for emphasis, and finally using "reddit spacing" as a critique makes you a total fag.

>>219845909His Constantine stuff was pretty good, and even on Preacher.Later he just didn't give any fucks anymore. And he was well aware of the Frankface meme.
>>219845909It is exactly like that in Preacher. We identify the characters by their hairstyles and accessories such as sunglasses, not by their faces, which are almost all the same. You only get a new face type if he's drawing a chinless inbreed or a monster of some kind.
