this is pretty straightforward . the movie is bookended by its title . “robocop” is the first thing we see . no “a film by paul verhoeven” or “orion presents” preceding it . and “robocop” is the last thing we see before the end credits roll .
the new robocop is a generic shoot - em - up for much of the film , one no different than any other .
robocop goes to a night club to find a member of boddicker’s gang who can lead him to the crime lord’s hideout so he can kill boddicker . later , jones gives boddicker a tracking device to lead him to robocop’s hideout so boddicker can kill him .

robocop ' s terminal strip was a sharp spike - like device that protruded from robocop ' s right fist . this device could be used by robocop to interface with a corresponding data port in order to download information from the police database and compare information he gathered from his missions with the police database . this device was also used to kill clarence boddicker ; having pinned robocop under a pile of scrap metal , the cyborg waited for boddicker to approach and then stabbed boddicker in the throat , killing the crime lord .
as a huge robocop fan myself since being a kid it was a great honor and a really fun challenge to work on the designs for the robocop remake film . working with the production designer martin whist and the art - director dave scott was a fun creative collaboration where we were able to try a lot of different ideas for various designs , including the robocop suit , ed209 robot , the robocop ' s bike , weapons and various props . below are some of the designs that i had a chance to work on .
before he could get to his feet , the droid was upon him . it raised its cannon , the muzzle hovering mere inches from robocop ' s face , and prepared to execute him , but robocop grabbed the droid ' s arm and deflected its aim , then directed the blazing cannon into the other arm , which exploded , stunning the machine and allowing robocop to escape to a staircase . ed - 209 tripped and fell behind him , unable to get up , thrashing wildly on the landing , allowing robocop to escape .
my initial reactions to the 1987 ' ' robocop ' ' and ' ' dirty dancing ' ' theatrical trailers were pretty much identical .
and the designers really did try to create a whole consistent operating system , that would make sense as something that could actually exist . there are more than 100 shots in the film that show robocop dealing with different situations , from robocop ' s point of view .
the action : in order to test robocop’s abilities in the field , he takes on several em - 208s in a training area .
“we are very excited by the success of robocop in china . the end of february is traditionally a very slow period for film openings , but chinese audiences embraced robocop due to its great visual effects and the fantastic 3d version shown in china , ” li said .
this new robocop film might enter the bitter hatred and clash of fandom man of steel & iron man 3 went through in 2013 .

there is a powerfully ironic moment toward the end of the film . as robocop and lewis lay wounded , having successfully battled the boddicker gang , robocop says :
they ' ll fix you . they fix everything .
but it is clear at this point that
they
— the technocrats — cannot fix everything , and robocop sarcastically is referring to how brutally they had
fixed
him .
to top the original will actually be harder than trying to re - make star wars . i believe you could top star wars since we ' ve seen empire do that already . but robocop is a 1st person visceral experience where you basically become robocop for the first part
and joining us ? part man , part machine , all badass , the first and the greatest robocop : peter weller ! the icon will be there live and in person for a conversation and q & a that’ll get beamed into robocop movie party screenings across the country .
the scene where robocop leaves the precinct was the first scene shot using the suit . the shot of robocop catching the cruiser keys was very difficult as they kept bouncing off the rubber hand of the suit . it took at least fifty tries before they got it right .
also , the designers tried to
show one thing at a time ,
so they could see what robocop was doing , in order , instead of a jumble of events . so you can see what robocop is achieving at any moment , based on the situation .
just as clarence and leon celebrated , lewis managed to fire off a shot from clarence ' s discarded assault cannon , which annihilated leon and the control room , sending clarence into a rage . he grabbed a length of scrap and splashed over to robocop , proceeding to batter him mercilessly . robocop managed to deflect a few of the blows , but an upended plunging strike got through his parry , penetrated a fissure in his breastplate . robocop screamed in pain , and clarence brought his face in close as he spat a final goodbye to the cyborg . robocop unsheathed his dataspike and stabbed clarence through the neck , opening a sufficiently lethal wound that killed clarence in moments . desperately , robocop called to lewis , who was in bad shape . robocop reassured her not to worry , as ocp could put anything back together .
so when it comes to technology , it’s not surprising that movie logic takes precedence . the development of technology in robocop 2 ignores the one blindingly obvious trait that made both ocp ' s robocop project and the first movie so successful , and that ' s alex murphy .
the robocop will patrol the halls of gisec until tuesday evening before in high - density areas of the city . the robocop’s wide - ranging skills include the capability to map the insides of a building and navigate its path automatically via its self - control and drive feature .
we can all read the satire of consumer capitalism . but robocop also exaggerates action movies as well . robocop interrupts a rapist from assaulting a woman . he uses his cyborg accuracy to shoot through the woman’s dress , piercing the rapist between the legs . robocop’s massive weapon not only symbolically gets the girl by tearing open her dress , but it literally vanquishes the phallus of the other man . later , in a climactic fight with gang leader clarence boddickker , robocop gets impaled on a massive metal shaft . but robocop triumphs by using his computer interface spike , ejected from his right arm , to pierce boddickker’s throat . in the new information age , digital phalli triumph over industrial ones .
the turning point of the movie is when robocop arrests boddicker . up ‘til then , he’s been indestructible and able to handle anything that comes his way . but after throwing boddicker through several glass windows , robocop is about to crush his throat when he’s reminded that he’s a cop . his programming takes over and denies him the ability to kill boddicker . he arrests the criminal instead . then , when robocop confronts jones , he’s prevented from arresting him by his programming . and robocop gets knocked through several glass doors / windows by ed - 209 .
the new robocop isn ' t very interesting . he ' s a bunch of drones you never see because you ' ve already been shot
the action : robocop’s trademark suit - seen in both silver and black form - was of course a key design element in the film .
widely regarded as an inferior sequel , robocop 2 has flashes of brilliance and lapses of logic . andrew takes a look back . . .
the article shows that everyone gets robocop , and not starship troopers , but does not offer an explanation of why this is the case .
super toughness : robocop is made of titanium / kevlar and so he can shrug off small arms fire , great falls , and explosions .
you could make not ocp the good guys or have them as grey as you want to or you could make is as black and white as you please if only this wasn ' t a
robocop
movie where certain things have to be taken from
robocop
.
our robocop remake is a parody / fan remake of the original robo cop 1987 , produced by david seger and released in february 2014 .
robocop had an internal zoom capability for better aim as well as tracking . robocop also had different vision modes . his systems used a grid which was crucial to robocop ' s targeting as well as bullet trajectory , allowing him to make ricochet shots . his programming prevented him from targeting children , which allowed hob to shoot robocop and escape the nuke drug lab . he also had a recorder which could detect voice fluctuations and stress as well as play back audio / visual . this recording capability enabled robocop to document any situation he encountered with perfect recall and unbiased neutrality , with his memory being deemed through legal agreement as admissible evidence in a court of law . robocop also possessed a directional microphone with which he could track conversations from a distance . it was very sensitive , as he could hear vehicles approaching from afar despite being indoors .
tested recently visited tippett , the academy award - winning special effects animator behind the empire strikes back , robocop , and jurassic park , in his studio . there , tippett showed off the full - sized cain puppet from robocop 2 , as well as the insanely detailed models used for stop - motion scenes in the film . according to tippett , designer craig hayes was so upset by the ed - 209 model kits that hit the market after robocop that he deliberately created a design that “no one in their right mind would try to reproduce” for robocop 2 .
thank you for your kind comment . it’s amazing how some things hide in plain sight for so many years . i totally agree that robocop’s fight with ed - 209 is really cool . i even deleted some other similarities , such as boddicker falling through the ceiling when he tries to jump from the bridge and ed - 209 falling down the stairs . plus , robocop preparing to crush boddicker’s throat only to be stopped by his programming , and then ed - 209 preparing to blow robocop’s head off with his massive gun , but being prevented by robocop’s human ingenuity .
robo cam : numerous scenes are shown from robocop ' s pov , complete with scanlines , subtle pixelation , hud messages and when robo is hurt , interference . the hud is justified , since robocop is technically still human and would need some information displayed to help him make decisions .
toss in robocop & toxic waste guy & somebody saying
bitches leave
and that ' s the only elements you need to toss in .
we take a look at just some of the major visual effects shots and sequences in the new robocop with the film ' s lead vendors .
“i will see everyone in a few days ! let’s see… toby care instructions… ‘toby also likes it if you read him the novelization of robocop and speak murphy’s dialogue like a robot after he becomes robocop’ . dad ! next time mom is writing my care instructions ! ! ! ” ~ toby
nerd glasses : many of ocp ' s staff , as well as the gas station attendant robocop saves from a criminal in the first film .
awhile back , with much fanfare and commotion on the internet , a crowdfunded kickstarter campaign raised thousands of dollars to construct a giant robocop statue .
creators of a 10 - foot bronze replica of the original robocop are putting finishing touches on the statue that may soon call detroit its home .
so , taking all of this into account , it’s easy to see how a studio might be willing to take a different road with the robocop concept . jose padilha’s robocop remake elicited strong feelings from fans ( before any had even seen a single frame of film ) , simply because the original is such a revered piece of genre filmmaking . and while the robocop reboot was a conflicted and not entirely effective film , there is one thing it inarguably did much better than the original : this robocop had all of its franchise ducks in a row , right out of the gate .
peter weller , a method actor known for playing everyman characters , was cast as murphy / robocop in robocop . his light build made it easier to work in the bulky robocop costume . peter spent seven months training with a mime coach to fine tune his robotic movements only to find that the suit was far too bulky for what he had practiced . he used the practiced movements and let the restrictions of the suit slow him down .
weller does a good job of humanizing robocop , and allen is tough and loyal as his partner . the scenes of robocop ' s engineering are intriguing , and it ' s fun to watch him make the bad guys squirm . still , some of the movie feels dated and over the top . in spite of that , robocop still remains a thought - provoking action movie that examines the use of technology and the abuse of power .
“somehow they seem to think that the lightness of say total recall and robocop is a hindrance . so they take these somewhat absurd stories and make them much too serious . i think that is a mistake . especially in robocop when he awakens they gave him the same brain” , verhoeven said .
robocop is truly a great violent movie . packed with plenty of blood and violence , this is one entertaining movie . set in detroit , one of the most violent city ' s , robocop is the story of a police killed by a ruthless gang . he is later used in a experiment , and becomes the half man half machine , robocop . peter sellers gives us the best movie of his entire career . paul verhoevan has made some great film like basic instict , hollow man , starship troopers and total recall . i think robocop , is still is best work out of the lot . it is the best out of the robocop trilogy by a margin . the second part was entertaining in some scenes and is worth watching . the third was a absolute disaster , with nothing great about it , apart from robot ninjas . watch robocop 1 , it is a fabulous movie .

“somehow they seem to think that the lightness of say total recall and robocop is a hindrance . so they take these somewhat absurd stories and make them much too serious . i think that is a mistake . especially in robocop when he awakens they gave him the same brain , ” verhoeven said .
while we ' re waiting to see if josé padilha ' s robocop remake is a worthy successor to the original , the folks behind our robocop remake have beaten padilha to the punch by releasing their entire feature - length , crowdsourced remake that lovingly spoofs each scene in paul verhoeven ' s film .
in a recent interview , the screenwriter for the original robocop reflected on how the film ' s script is starting to play into reality :

robocop is a product of its time . fully loaded with reagan - era cynicism and endless hallmarks from that golden age of action movie excess , there’s a razor’s edge that robocop manages to walk . neither a total nod - wink satire nor an endorsement of the film’s “future of law enforcement” tagline , robocop effortlessly blends over - the - top violence with disturbingly gory practical effects and a cutting sense of humor about consumerism , corporate culture , and the media .
much like robocop : the animated series was the harbinger of robo’s many weaknesses as an action character , robocop 2 exposed how poorly the franchise could fare when the razor sharp wit of the first film was replaced by more on - the - nose situations and an ultimately tedious “drugs are bad” message . robocop 2 ’s best sequence remains the roll - out of potential

models , each one more terrifying and prone to malfunction than the last . the scene is played for laughs , but watching it today , the evil scientists’ quest to improve on the intangible formula that made robocop the character so effective can almost be seen as a metaphor for how the suits’ desperate desire to turn robocop the concept into a viable franchise misfired at every turn . kurtwood smith and miguel ferrer are sorely missed , as is anything resembling the title character’s growth after his breakthrough final word of the first film : “murphy . ”
the star of the previous films , peter weller , did not reprise the role for robocop 3 , as he was starring in naked lunch . robert john burke was signed to play the cyborg character instead . the robocop suit burke wore in the movie was originally built for robocop 2 . since burke was taller than weller , he complained that wearing it was painful after a short time . burke worked very hard to recreate the movements that weller had perfected in the previous movies . other than a very noticeable change in the voice effects burke ' s robocop was well received even if the movie wasn ' t .
to entice oldman the character must have more scope in his ethical dilemma , hence a riff on shelly ' s scientist , rather than robocop ' s .
when robocop punches the city councilman , who had taken the mayor and others hostage , through the window , the glass breaks before he falls through it .
robocop relies for most of its impact - - and , more disturbingly , for much of its comedy - - on an absurd exaggeration of physical force .
overall , the suits were still the ones used on robocop 2 , which meant that burke had to endure not only the already restrictive and uncomfortable nature of the suits , but also all the additional weight of the auto body filler used to repair the suits over the course of robocop 2 ' s production .
through a lot of effects work and compositing , our team was able to slowly refine and come up with a beautiful and surreal transition for robocop’s reveal .
the score for robocop was composed by basil poledouris , who used both synthesized and orchestral music as a mirror to the man - versus - machine theme of the movie . the score alternates brass heavy material , including the memorable robocop theme and ed - 209 ' s theme , with more introverted pieces for strings , such as during robocop ' s home - coming scene . the music was performed by the sinfonia of london conducted by howard blake and tony britton .
richard m . nixon is escorted by robocop at a national board meeting of the boys club of america . the robocop character was on hand to call attention to orion home video’s robocop rubout promotion . sweepstakes tickets , packaged with each “robocop” cassette , offer a number of instant prizes for retailers as well as $ 25 , 000 in donations to the boys club . the sweepstakes is part of a $ 3 million promotional effort launched by orion in conjunction with the action - adventure film’s video release . the cassette will be available in video stores beginning jan . 28 for a suggested list price of $ 89 . 98 .

during the unveiling of delta city and robocop 2 at a press conference , the ocp president unwittingly presents a canister filled with nuke . cain escapes control , destroying the control device that arms his weapons , and opens fire on the crowd . robocop arrives , and the two cyborgs battle throughout the building , eventually falling off the roof and into an underground facility . as the rest of the police force arrives and engages cain ( who , having gone berserk , fires at armed personnel and innocent civilians alike ) , robocop heads back to the ocp building to get the canister of nuke . upon seeing the canister , robocop 2 immediately ceases fire and takes it . while distracted , robocop jumps onto his back , punches his way through to cain ' s brain , and crushes it .
robocop proceeds to ocp headquarters and plays a recording of jones ' confession to the murder of morton at an ocp executives meeting . he also reveals that he cannot act against an officer of ocp . jones panics and takes the ceo hostage , demanding a helicopter to make his escape . the old man fires jones , invalidating his directive four protection . robocop thanks the old man and shoots jones , sending his body flying through a boardroom window and plunging down to the ground . the old man compliments robocop on his shooting and asks his name . robocop , having regained his former memories , smiles and replies :
murphy .
the robocop remake doesn ' t just reinvent his outer shell with a sleek new shape — it also changes how the cyborg police officer sees the rest of the world . we spoke to lead designer mert kizilay from the l . a . design studio yu + co about creating a new user interface for robocop .
by the time he faced the urban rehabilitators , robocop was outfitted with a gunarm . to use it , robocop removed his left hand and replaced it with the weapon assembly . it contained a 9mm machine gun , a flamethrower , and a small missile launcher with a projectile potent enough to destroy an armored vehicle .
point 2 : dialogue in the robocop movies was highly campy . the quips made by murphy were classic camp . also see robocop 2 ' s reveal scenes for the version 2 . 0 robocop failures . it was hilarious . also in the first movie the ed - 209 stairs scene was also pretty campy . the original was good overall but denying the campy nature in it is an exercise in willful ignorance . i ' ll amend that there was a serious tone mixed with campy elements but i ' ll never say it wasn ' t in the realm of camp at any time . also the little league team robbing the store in robocop 2 , the fact that robocop was reading a dead guy miranda also in that scene , the cheesy gun flipping , those are all camp elements .
whilst robocop was wrestling with his malfunctioning software , dick jones unveiled his own security concepts crime - fighting machine : an ed - 209 . as it approached the crippled robocop , dick jones gloated ,
i had to kill bob morton because he made a mistake . now it ' s time to erase that mistake !
ed - 209 opened fire , throwing robocop through the heavy set of double doors in a shower of glass and splinters . as he pulled himself upright , ed - 209 delivered an uppercut powerful enough to bust open robocop ' s visor and threw him across the office to land heavily on the marble floor .
while over - the - top and gory , robocop is also a surprisingly smart sci - fi flick that uses ultraviolence to disguise its satire of american culture .
basil poledouris ' score to robocop is one of the almighty scores of the 80s and a true testament to the power and awe of real movie music composition .
the first , robocop : the series , ran for 22 episodes , toned down the violence , and amped up the satire . . . to mixed results . robocop : the series came from the minds of ed neumier and michael miner , writers of the first film , and the show borrowed elements from their unproduced sequel , robocop : the corporate wars . while the show had some reasonable production values for a syndicated show , ratings were poor , recognizable characters beyond robo were noticeably absent , and the series often took bizarre turns . . . like the time robocop took on a superhero named commander cash , played by “rowdy” roddy piper .
with the sculpture’s assembly from the ground up already in progress , the final major molds of the robocop statue were completed and poured in mid october of 2016 .
at her first opportunity , lewis stops robocop and says , “murphy , it’s you . ” this reveals his real name , which he had forgotten . later , robocop removes his helmet , revealing his face , which he hadn’t seen since his death . lewis says , “it’s really good to see you again , murphy . ”
one flaw : in “j , ” robocop doesn’t cause any of the property damage , even though he’s pictured in front of the burning gas station . emil shot through the fuel line , causing a gas spill , and threw his lit cigarette in front of the widening spill . that’s what caused the explosion - not robocop .
friends , it’s been while since we’ve posted an update on the robocop statue . the campaign to bring a 10 - foot bronze robocop statue to detroit posted two short updates last year , none in 2015 , and a few in 2014 . don’t fear ! it’s still in the works . still coming . . . soon !
recognizing her late partner , lewis confronts robocop and asks his name , but when he cannot respond she says , “murphy , it’s you . ” an outpouring of memories flow into robocop’s head , and all at once he seeks out boddicker and arrests him , inciting boddicker’s confession that he’s on jones’ payroll . though murphy wants to strangle his killer , robocop’s programming doesn’t allow it . instead , he hauls boddicker downtown for booking , and then he confronts jones and plans to arrest him only to discover directive 4 , a measure which prevents robocop from arresting any ocp executive . jones retaliates with ed - 209 , arranges the release of boddicker to have morton killed , and orders the police to destroy robocop . badly damaged and barely escaping with the help of lewis , our hero repairs himself and reveals to lewis that a part of him is still murphy . he wonders where his family is , and she explains that murphy’s wife and son have left town , believing him dead . together , robocop and lewis take down boddicker’s crew . afterward , robocop confronts jones in a board meeting attended by the old man , exposing jones’ association with boddicker and his attempt at a hostile takeover of ocp . the old man responds directly by firing his company’s traitor and therein quashes directive 4 , which permits robocop to kill jones . his life and company just saved , the old man asks our hero , “nice shootin’ son , what’s your name ? ” robocop replies , “murphy . ”

you can tell if there is insufficient oxygen in the blood by checking the color of the skin all over your baby ' s body . if there is a bluish cast everywhere ( especially in areas with a lot of blood flow , like the lips , tongue , and vagina or scrotum ) , this could mean all of the blood is blue and there could be a problem with the heart or lungs .

they feed her snake blood to make her the betrothed of satan and the mother of the antichrist .
the body needs iron to make haemoglobin , which is responsible for supplying oxygen to all the cells through the blood . it is also responsible for the colour of red blood cells – so if someone’s body lacks sufficient iron , these blood cells become small and pale , resulting in iron - deficiency anaemia .
anemia from inadequate rbc production . conditions that can cause a reduced production of red blood cells include :
malaria : a mosquito ' s bite transmits a parasite into a person ' s blood , where it infects red blood cells . periodically , the red blood cells rupture , causing fever , chills , and organ damage . this blood infection is most common in parts of africa but can also be found in other tropical and subtropical areas around the world ; those traveling to affected areas should take preventive measures .

if there is a bluish cast over the entire body , the blood may be lacking sufficient oxygen . blue primarily around the lips may also indicate low blood oxygen . this is very worrisome and you should seek medical attention immediately . it’s also concerning if you notice any blueness at all when it seem like your baby might be having trouble breathing .
red blood cells ( rbcs , also called erythrocytes ) are shaped like slightly indented , flattened disks . rbcs contain the iron - rich protein hemoglobin . blood gets its bright red color when hemoglobin picks up oxygen in the lungs . as the blood travels through the body , the hemoglobin releases oxygen to the tissues .

your baby may have swallowed blood from a cracked nipple during breastfeeding .

the earlier appearance of fetal cells in maternal blood in humans may suggest more active migration of certain fetal cells . potentially there may be multiple cell types and phases of migration involved . more detailed investigation of the time course of the appearance of maternal blood in the placenta and the appearance of fetal cells in maternal blood in humans may be informative .
the reason for this reduction in iron absorption is that the breastmilk proteins , lactoferrin and transferrin , can become saturated by the excess iron . this reduces their efficiency in delivering iron to your baby , meaning that more iron is available to harmful bacteria ( leading to digestive problems ) and less is available to baby .
sickle cell disease affects haemoglobin , the iron - rich protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen around the body .
