Georgy Zhukov Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 Both versions are horrible, I really hate when old films are praised just because of nostalgia. I don't mean in a "I know it's bad, but I love it anyway" way but "this is a great quality film" way, when it's not.Are you serious? The original is an absolute classic. A seriously fantastic movie!Even though the film is 27 years old, that one scene still grosses me out. You know which one.Second and third films sucked though.

You know which one.Second and third films sucked though.the second one still had its moments especially some of the commercials IE the magna volt and the OCP commercial where the guy shoots himself since he lost an account. my personal favorite is when they are testing the new robocops and one of them goes nuts shoots a scientist and kills a women writing down the results. in the next scene they put her brain into a robot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR DOOM Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 I find it amusing that I used to watch a Robocop cartoon as a kid, and a Rambo one too...I've not seen either since the mid 80's but I can only assume they aren't anything like the movies.I never even knew there was a Robocop 3, I can only presume it licks baboon ass?I barely remember 2 come to think of it...

DR DOOM Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Ah, sounds about right.Does 2 retain the satire/comment?I sort of vaguely remember it (the bad Robocop)666: yeah, the last Rambo was pretty fucking violent- better than the shitfest that is III and II for sure.The fact Rambo III is "dedicated to the brave people of the Mujhadeen" is a bit ironic, Rambo fought with the Taliban, eh?

Georgy Zhukov Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 To be fair, not all of the Mujahadeen ended up in the Taliban. Some of them fought the Taliban. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR DOOM Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Yeah, fair points the both of you.I love how the Russian baddie flies his chopper into the Tank at the end of Rambo III, so fucking dumb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZoSoRose Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Just saw it. It sucked, completely missed the point of the original, some of the acting was awful, and the pacing was weird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Len B'stard Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 (edited) I remember Robocop 2, there's some new drug out there called 'nuke' that people stick in their necks and some weird bad guy that looks something like the bloke in the raincoat in the beginning of Last Action Hero...thats about all i remember, oh, the guys name is Caine. I remember two scenes, one of Robocop kicking the fuck out of someone in an amusement arcade whilst trying to get information out of him, repeatedly saying 'WHEERES CAIINNE' and one other scene where they fuck Robocop up, chop him into bits and then drive up in a car and dump all the bits in the street.Not bad considering i ain't seen it in almost 20 years.
