- You can’t put a man into a machine and then complain that he still makes humane decisions. Alex Murphy is a star graduate, a devout catholic, and a caring father. All reports say he has a great sense of duty. He was the first and the most successful candidate in the Robocop program. In this movie review we will analyze the details of the transformation of the main character of the fantastic action movie "RoboCop" 1987 and «RoboCop» 2014.

You know, I always wondered why Murphy couldn't just have tried to contact his family after his conversion, but it was obvious now why that was. His body was buried in a police funeral, and his wife and son assumed him dead. Trying to find them would have ruined their new lives. His success was because of his previous life as a devout police officer. And the rest really wouldn't have mattered. He carried himself into his new life of continued duty for the Detroit police department. He became the hero he wanted to show his son that he already was.
Someone’s been watching the reboot…literally word for word what Gary old man says 🙄
@stevenyoung1999 it was said in the series first.
Man, when you're doing a video like this, you could at least refresh some primary school knowledge about human anatomy and be better than Robocop remake creators.
In order to survive, brain needs to have close to all natural internal organs, that is not just the lungs, but also liver, kidneys, thymus and a few others, just to replenish the blood, clean it and protect the brain from infections.
A Catholic!?!? So your saying he was a psuedo-christian Satanist?
Just Imagine his actual trauma, being absolutely destroyed mentally and physically and waking up in a robotic body. He's still in there and he cannot do anything about it. I honestly think it's the most tragic Sci fi movie in history.
Loosely researched..Alex's face was molded, not removed, and a resistant cold fleshlike mask was added to give a Robo face to honor the donor. Furthermore, Murphy's cardiac and nervous system was used to supply the brain organically, not just the shocks used during life support. The computer chip enhancements ultimately allowed the brain to support a command and AI processor
There are some anime that deal with this whole concept. Same era in time. About a cop, in a robot body, just a brain, and a tongue. He would bite his tongue.. just to FEEL and had to be fed drugs to keep him sane. True horror. A brain, in a box, cannot feel, cannot breath, the brain, starved for sensation and data input slowly goes mad.
Cain might have it even worse in a way. Didn't even give the poor guy an electronic voice box to talk.
@@msscott22 Yeh, but Cain was kept under control with drugs, so he was probably too high most of the time to really comprehend his predicament.
@@riboflavinfolate3964 Theres no drug that good. He had it bad.
Hats off to Peter Weller who completely brought Robocop to life.
I wanted to meet the man but he was such a prick at a recent fan expo
Peter Weller is 76 years old, still no reason for him to be a prick . What was he doing that made him be a prick at an expo ?
And he's returning to the role this coming week in the video game Robocop Rogue City. Face and voice.
@@starwindamada5313 What about shit attitude and unabashed disdain towards fans that dare even ask him about the role these days. Is that included as well?
@@MM-ql9xj Yeah, that's how we deal with issues as adults. We act like douchebags to people not even remotely related to those issues.
Peter Weller acted like an ass but you lashing out at people like a child throwing a tantrum isn't much better.
The next time you think your job is bad, just remember, he straight up died and they still made him go to work. 😅
without pay I might add.
Harsh reality, isn't it?
Worse. He didn't just die, he was specifically *chosen* to die specifically for this project. They refer to him being selected for multiple things including his record and mental state. Then he was assigned to the most dangerous precinct in the hopes he would quickly get killed, providing them with the perfect candidate for the program.
I work in logistics, would bet a dollar they would put me to work after they find me dead at my desk lol
@@Globeguy1he gets paid in baby food
I like how his voice was modulated and his body had a hum to it when he's first introduced. But as movie progressed those two effects slowly diminish, indicating his humanity coming back. In his old home when he's remembering his family, specifically his wife, even his iconic walking thump is absent. That moment it just sounds like a person with heavy boots walking.
He got angry because he was sexually frustrated...
It’s quiet because he is walking on a carpet 😂
@@halomultiplayermoments3651 walking on carpet ? 🤣 are u forgetting how much he weighs ? Regardless carpet or not, his footsteps will always make a thump idiot
@@phoenixgaming9693Not the same thump sound like in the precinct tho .. that’s not how sounds work lol.
@@Mr.PR2000^ it’s like moving a dog kennel from hardwood to Carpet
The scariest and saddest part for me was when he first wakes up and all he can do is just watch, especially when they nonchalantly say they’re gonna erase his memory in front of him and he cant do anything
And also say that he is legally dead and that they can do with him whatever they want.
@@rodrigosimas1980they take his arm
Robocop was such a cool movie..real hard hitting & futuristic..one of the all time bests..
It wasn’t such a cool movie, it still is
so true
It’s flawless.
@@lookingforahookup it * was * and still is, a cool movie.
@UofM student
I agree it's a cool movie. Others don't
Of course Robocop feels emotions by the end. He states he feels his family, and he also makes the decision to kill Boddicker rather than arrest him. If he was only driven by his sense of duty, he would’ve arrested him. The whole point of the film is that he gets his humanity back by the end, after coming to terms with what he now is and isn’t.
Alex Murphy would have arrested Boddicker. If he really had just wanted Boddicker dead he could have shot him dead right there and didn't. He was police officer and police officers do not execute criminals. Clarence did remove that ethical dilemma by forcing Murphy to defend himself with lethal force and he did.
I always had the impression that Boddicker's quick release (after Murphy arrested him the first time) might have influenced his decision
Nice
@@vksasdgaming9472
But RoboCop was going to outright shoot Clarence near the end wasn't he? "I'm not arresting you anymore" and he was bringing his gun down to shoot him before Emil dumped the steel girders on him
@@Buckers2202 If Murphy would have really decided to just kill Clarence he would have killed dead right there.
Alex Murphy is the most tragic character in all SF universe.
And also Kyle Reese.
@@judsongaiden9878 no ,doesn't even compare
Murphy is also one of the best Christ metaphors in SF
@@GTO_CAL What Kyle Reese lived wasnt easy but he is not that rare, he is kinda a war veteran but he wasnt able to retire. Still a tragic figure but at least he fulfilled his duty and got peace.
What suffered Murphy is nightemare fuel, resisiting that body horror was only achievable by the strongest will. Many prototypes failed.
He is still alive and working for i wonder how much more years in future maybe until his organic brain decays.
@@CommanderTato right ..don't get me wrong I want saying kyle didn't have it hard because he was born into a nightmare ,fighting machines living moment to moment like a roach waiting to be crushed at anytime
But the brutality of Murphy's Slaughter was uncanny ,they he comes back from it all as a machine with his family gone ..its still amazing he didn't have a psychological breakdown like the other RoboCop trial run prototypes
At least Kyle was given a fighting chance before he died and he went quick
Peter Weller is the only man that can play Robocop, to be fair to Robert Burke he done good job but Weller is the best.
If you think that Darth Vader's life is awfull take a look at Robocop.
At least Vader is still 50% human. In Robocop's case there's only 1% humanity left.
yep and Vader more realistic. using cybernetics to preserve life and improve function.
Though his body was burned to a chrisp and his suit was made to be uncomfortable for him. But I do agree to an extent he atleast kept his human body and head, meanwhile Alex lost 99% of his humanity but still held on to that 1%
Even in MK when asked by sub zero if his soul was destroyed, Alex responded "despite their best efforts. No."
Darth Vader still enjoy being Annie if he wanted to. He can remove his armor and relaxed like Annie in his Bacta Tank or meditation chamber.
@@goriotv2023 he can remove only his helmet
@@predtralo no. Watch the Kenobi series and Rogue One. He was inside the Bacta Tank without his armour
What made Alex Murphy work as RoboCop:
He was mentally tough-he knowingly replaced a dead police officer (Frank Frederickson) while in the locker room. AND fearlessly pursued Boddicker's gang.
He was physically tough-not only was he alive after being shot, he was still fully conscious before receiving the death blow to the head.
He was spiritually tough-besides his Catholic faith; his last thought was his wife and son waving goodbye (for the final time) as he drove away.🚓
He didn't get Frank's locker, Alex was loading stuff into his locker when Cpt Reed came to clear out Frank's.
Thank you for your cooperation...
Have a nice day
The fact the put Murphy's face on the Robocop body so that Murphy's brain could process and adjust to his new Robo life also explains why OCP's future Robopeople failed. None of them had their face...well and then they used Cain of all people, which was equally a bad decision.
If anything RoboCain proved that unorthodox recruitment did work and proved RoboCop's success was not a fluke. It was just typical cinematic stupidity that heavily armed sociopath cyborg is not controlled in any way.
@@vksasdgaming9472 robots being loaded live ammo is part of Robocop humor. its done to show that corporations just don't care. also, notice how Old Man steps over a corpse on his way to the limmo to have sex with Dr Faux one last time before everything is pinned on her))) So psychopathy right there.
that was a real face
To me, Peter Weller will always be RoboCop. Love the first two films, especially the original. Can't wait for Rogue City video game coming soon!!
I saw short let's plays. It seams very close to the original formula 😊
Confirmed it's like playing the first 2 movies. Worth a buy :)
Its definitely a great game and installment to the original trilogy
At 8:45, Robocop turned to his friends and said, "Are we cops?" He takes a deep breath before saying it. I think this is evidence for the existence of the lungs. He takes a deep breath. Maybe based on this scene they showed the lungs in RoboCop (2014).
The Robocop remake is so terrible. It has absolutely nothing to do wioth the original.
Both Robocop and Spawn are the most tragic characters.
One is a police officer
One was a soldier
Both were killed by mad men, screwed over by their creators for their own benefits, and the only thing they have left is memories of their past lives.
Though they can never return to be human beings again, they manage to avenge their deaths and permanently end their creators for good.
well, Robocop is still owned by the corporation. I don't see a happy end for him at all.
36 years later and this movie still holds up strong.
I think he had lungs & heart in the original,the producers didn't wanted to go to the scale explaining so much in order to have you in the thought if murphy is a machine or not!
Yes, he indeed had vital organs, and needed a heart transplant in the 3rd movie.
@@Lremediez I only saw a couple of times the third sequel and i forgot it to tell you the truth! 😅 It wasn't the best one i only have in bluray the two first movies as a fan! The third one wasn't caught up like the first ones and was much weaker! It was like you see a direct to tv pilot for the series.But at least it explains allot in the matter if he had lungs heart etc! 😉
Yeah it would make sense for him to have a heart and lungs, because the brain needs blood and oxygen.
Weren't they advertising mechanical hearts by Yamaha in the original? Why would they invest millions in a project and still keep the original ❤?
The fourth directive causes him to shut down if he attempts to arrest a senior OCP employee. In the original when he tries to arrest Dick Jones he's fighting the shut down procendure from Directive Four. Whether he was feeling pain while doing it is debatable. The one scene where he does feel extreme pain is when Clarence Boddicker stabs him in the chest with the iron bar at steel mill. And of course there are few scenes he Robocop 2 where he does feel pain. The first being when Cain's gang are pulling him apart and as you mention throughout the scenes when he's in pieces. Even in the scene where he electrocutes himself you can clearly see the expression of pain in his mouth as he grits his teeth. I believe this could be because of the fact he also has his spine intact which of course carries a lot nerve signals to his brain.
thanks for the great comment
Yea but the best part is on number 3...when he reboots and when listing his directives it shows directive 4 and my man straight up deletes that shit.
I always thought the scene where Clarence stabs RoboCop at the end of the movie was a bluff by RoboCop to get Clarence to drop his guard enough for him to land the data spike stab.
Watch how quickly RoboCop drops the look of pain and moaning to straight faced and focused. If it was intended that way it's pretty cool.
He faked the pain.
Another scene where he felt pain was when the kid was laying in the back of the armored truck, and he was dying because of robocain attacking the place. Can't forget that part because of multiple reasons.
Peter Weller deserved an Oscar.
To leave one hand as organic is beyond stupid. He weighs a couple hundred pounds more than the biological hand is able to accommodate in any number of situations.
This movie was so far ahead of its time and was in such awe when I saw it in the theater for the first time. Still one if my all time favorites and can’t wait to get the new video game with Peter Welled voicing RoboCop!
yep about 30 years in the future for robotic control protestics. still RoboCop is most extreme cyborg that was human in fiction other the terminator series.
I just played the demo yesterday and I'd love to know what you think of it. I felt it was disappointing and very wooden. The script leaves him sounding very robotic, like when he has all the new directives in RoboCop 2 but as if that's normal. The gun also doesn't have the iconic sound.
Robocop is a true masterpiece. Tragic and compelling character
RoboCop is one of my favorite movies
Definitely
the OG robocob had the brain, an artificial heart, lungs, a piece liver, a kidney a a trimmed digestive system, all crammed in the torso.
the remake had the head (without the top) spinal cord, traquea, lungs, heart encased in an artificial thorax, a rudimentary circulatory system that has to be flushed periodicly with new blood, nutrients and antibiotics so he no longer can eat food
Robo finds his motivation at the end of the film; to honor his original self's ideals and sense of duty and try to be more like him. Seemed so to me.
I feel sorry for Alex Murphy he “died” on the job and still had to report for duty the next day.
Honestly, I prefer the ambiguous way the original series handled the question of what exactly happened to Murphy after his death to transform him into Robocop. The remake falls into the modern trap of slowing everything and over explaining rather than trusting the audience and letting them draw their own conclusions.
RoboCop from the 1987-1993
Was based in Detroit Michigan the 2010s
In RoboCop 2 Detroit was bankrupt.
It's weird though because in 2010 Detroit went bankrupt in 2010
The bankrupcy didn't happen in one year. Essentially it began in 1986. THat was a prophetic call which was ignored.
I think showing how much of him they cut away and how little of his body was left is the only thing the remake did right.
The scene where they remove his armour and he's literally a head and lungs is horrifying.
Could you imagine a universe where Detroit is a complete hell hole and doesn't have Robocop?
Same it's just like NYC but their is no spiderman or daredevil
One of the best things in original Robocop was the cowboy gun spin which Louis recognized from Murphy. There's still a person in the machine.
Apart from part of the brain and that face, what else original Robocop conserved?
At the start of the movie, the media break news had a commercial scene called the yamaha by jenson, so its probably that was put into Murphys cyborg chest too😊
Remember the difference between Robo Cop 1987 and the 2014 version
Robo Cop doesn't cry
Robo Cop makes the bad guys cry
It's fun to guess what's left of Murphy so it was wise that the original film kept it a mystery. Less is more.
I’m glad this video is available, I seen this as a child like most of us here, and just couldn’t or didn’t understand all of these elements of the movies thank you for this!!! I do remember all the emotions Murph went through tho, a lot of sad and painful parts really
Robocop is absolutely my favorite movie of all time! (The 1987 version)
Thanks for the great analysis video!
Half Man, Half Machine, All Cop. RoboCop, The Future of Law Enforcement! Nice Awesome Video, Hasselhoffteam!
The emperor made his armor very vulnerable to force lightning though so he won't turn against him
I didn’t know what a shotgun could do until I saw what it did to him the more surprising part was how he was alive through all that shit
Murphy's original parts included his brain, spine, and heart.
His heart was gone.
OG Robo probably had artificial lungs. There's a commercial at the beginning about artificial hearts, a parody of the real-deal artificial heart that was a recent medical breakthrough at the time the movie came out.
4:51 "Do you expect me to believe that you don't know your left from your right?!" Or rather "his" left and "his" right.
Funny how the perception of what happen to Murphy changes by director - Paul Verhoeven, who directed the original Robocop, always assumed Murphy was really dead, and all OCP did was to digitalize Murphy's mind into a robot body and computer, in a very satirical way of showing he was nothing but a product to corporate america. So Robocop really is a machine with human conscience, all the way down to the core, accordingly to Verhoeven. He even says so in an interview to collider in 2016, when criticizing the 2014 remake for being too serious. Irvin Kershner, on the other hand, just followed the scraps from Frank's Miller original script, which was much darker (Something characteristic of Miller back in the day) - Implying both Robocop and Robocain still retained their human brains while in cyborg form, making them more akin to Frankestein's monster than a corporate america product.
His helmet is the best....my question is...."where did the chin piece go"
Away from David in "Artificial Intelligence" Murphy is one of the SciFi characters whose destiny touched me most.
I never saw him as a superhero or sth like that.
For me he always was a severely disabled, traumatized man in total body prosthesis.
Doesn´t matter how much I love the look and design of that shiny armor, being caged into it must be a fate worse than death.
Unable to smell, hear, see and touch with natural sense organs, without the ability to feel when you´re touched....try to imagine that.
All the worse that a part of his human mind was left to Murphy after his horrible transformation, so he is permanently confronted with the memories of all he´s lost from his human life.
There´s just one other movie who appropriately describes the true dread of such an existence - it´s "Johnny got his gun" (1971)
Johnny, that is Murphy without his armor.
Metallica once made a song about it - "The One".
Perfectly fits to Murphy, too.
Alex is a patrolman a hybrid of man & machine a cyborg
I say this with all due respect, but this video was hard to get through because the voice over was pretty rough. Sounds like a bad AI reading it. Something to maybe improve on for future vids 😁
4:02, so Ofc. Murphy's face and eyes were moved from off his skull, onto a robot skull and jaw that had the same shape and contour as his human skull and jaw? OmG
Amazing video and narrative. Is great to see this revamped interest to this magic character whom fascination seems have remained untouched until these days.
nice video and information!
I think in a TV show version some of Robocops maintenance staff explained that part of his brain was unstimulated and dormant. Which had caused his memory to be wiped. But they were able to activate it, and in that exact moment he totally freaked out as he remembered everything. Especially being maimed and murdered by Boddicker and his gang, and the unbearable emotional anguish of losing his family.
I think all that's left of Murphy really is his spine and central nervous system, digestive tract, lungs, brain and his face. The rest of him is the machine of Robocop. But despite their best efforts his humanity still breaks through. I'd like to imagine in Robocop 2 when he electrocutes himself and clears all his directives that he's pretty much entirely Alex Murphy just operating the Robocop machine.
Can't remember much of that show beyond it being passable. Fleshiness of bits you mentioned makes sense as lungs are very efficient and oxygenating blood and digestive system is very good at getting nutrients into body. He most likely retains his liver as well. Understandably not much attention is paid on waste removal. I think that those cluttering directives OCP had put in his head were like noises psychotic people hear and caused lots of confusion. Those three prime directives are so clear that they rarely interfere in Murphy's own thinking.
If I recall they have some of his ribcage, and most of his internal organs I had read somewhere he kept parts of his reproductive organs for hormone based reasons but I cant really find a source for that, in the first movie they go out of their way to say they saved his entire torso so its safe to assume its all in there somewhere. They also cut off one of his arms they saved becasue the ocp guy only wanted a torso, though if we go based off of the second movie where he is litteraly just a torso and one arm, that arm could still be partially inside his right arm the one that uses the gun and why he still uses it to fire.
Atleast for me I like to think robocop is basically a torso with one arm and hes still about 50ish percent human.
You're all forgetting when Boddicker shoves a pipe on his chest and he screams in pain. There is something organic within the chest armor, like in the remake it could be lungs and heart.
And how did they repair organic damage?
@@NathanDrake5 surgery
Wow! Definitely things I wondered about. Thanks for putting this together!
This movie gets better and better
the question is what robocop body went through....keep in mind in an interview mr weller did...mr weller stated "he lost so much weight wearing the robocop costume...mr weller also stated that the costume was hot, it pinched his skin, the under suit was irritating to his skin in all it was all uncomfortable to wear....."
It smelled like baby vomit too. It's unfortunate they couldn't use the same material for subsequent films I think the first film's suit had the best color.
The remake was such a letdown
The "just the hand" part in the reboot was so stupid. As if a hand can do anything without the entire forearm.
One of my favorite movies
Disagree about the classic robocop it's pretty clear that he retains some abilities to rationalize his emotions the end of the first movie in fact is written to drive that point home yes most of his operational systems are machine like but his humanity remains although greatly subdued
If only the third movie were just as brutal. And more in theme with the first two. Lacking that content, weakened its potential. The remake had some good elements to it, great effects. But, without the brutality, took away the impact. Plus, the new Murphy was too cocky in that remake. He was better in the original. As for Robocop's drive in the first flick? Once he started to realize he was still human, he wanted to push away from what he became, the machine. And of course, sought to end the corruption of OCP with its connection to Bottiker.
Good comment man. The 1st and 2nd movies are rhe the only real-deal Robocop movies. 3rd movie is trash. The remake should have been set up as a sequel with a different cop and it would have worked out better. The nerfed violence/rating sealed it's fate. The old Saturday morning cartoon was pretty good!
If there’s no muscles then how did he smile at the end of the first movie?
I still trip out every time I'm in Dallas that movie is all over the place
Thanks for this Robocop video is very informative thanks. This channel just got a new subscriber.
The scene where he gets obliterated with bullets, still creeps me out
Thank you so much 😊
To be fair, I'd probably turn evil if my parents named me Clarence.
Robocop still human because he has heart, conscience and soul. About his head, in Mortal Kombat 11 when Robocop receives a x-ray critic attack, is seen his human skull.
He also has his heart & lungs. Definitely lungs because in Robocop 2 after he electrocutes himself, he takes a deep inhale
Great video. Answered a few questions that I was curious about. May I request a video on what “Darth Vader’s” body went through. While we’re on the subject of cyborgs. 🙏🏻😁
Robocop is One of My Favorite Movie Franchises as it has a Tragedy and Realism but I Love that Alex Murphy Still Live and has his Humanity intact Which is Rare to Cybernetic Beings.
Poor guy he became the perfect candidate
Robocop is my favorite superhero... A little bias because I'm from Detroit...
Great video
The 2014 movie gets far too much hate for what it is. It _has_ to be its own movie otherwise people would just complain it's doing the exact same thing over again.
I absolutely love how much more "realistic" it tries to be. The science behind it all, so much of it brought to viewer attention unlike most films.
I also very much like the way they keep his humanity in 2014, rather than the original Murphy who was pretty much turned into a computer full and through but one which had memories that would affect its' functionality.
On the other hand 2014 Murphy is a human slapped inside a computer. He's still fully human mentally, just controlling the computer and body that he has been given.
imagine you die on the job, but they make you go to work the next day again and forever
Imagine being killed in the line of duty only to be brought back to life to go back to work😢
Murphy was deliberately transferred to the station as he was the best candidate for their programme
"Here's his new robotic arm"
"Okay, attach it to his shoulder"
"His shoulder? .... Of course, so obvious. Why didn't I think of that?"
"That's why I'm your boss"
Robocop was a great storyline I still cry watching Murphy screaming in pain and horror as he's being destroyed mentally and emotionally and physically 💔 😢 😢😢
*All My Life* I been *Waiting* to see a *Video* like this that tell's the *Indepth* story of what *happened* to *Alex Murphy*
This is definitely one of the *Greatest Content Cinema Anatomic Breakdowns* on *"CZcams"*
*Great Discover* would *Love* to *see* More on *Robocop* following the *Ed-209* and *Cain Mecha*
One thing that *I* don't understand is *You* have one of the *Slowest Realistic* looking *Cyborg's* in *Cinema* practically the *Realist* looking at this *Point*

I agree with this and Murphy does in fact feel pain he is a cyborg which means that he is half human but his cybernetic suit is able to protect him from permanent damage he can get hurt and keep going!!
Doesn't mention the lose of his eye brows😂
probably not enough nutrition to promote hair growth
What accent is this that you speak with? I’m leaning towards it being Italian
I just realized that high evolutionary seems like robocop
When I was a kid I wanted to be Robocop but I didn’t understand the mental physical. Not to mention friends and family, now I couldn’t imagine going through that.
I also saw Bob Morton as a good guy now I know he was just as bad by taking great cops and putting them in the most dangerous parts of Detroit and Murphy was sadly a pawn in Bob’s plan to get on the Old Man’s good side
I think its because was somewhat charismatic and most people missed the part about "shuffling the volunteers around to get the body"
Who's here after rogue city?

Really cool video!
I know it's an unpopular opinion, but I really liked the reboot too. I'm not saying it's better than the original, but I could enjoy it separately. I especially liked the differences... was kinda relieved when things began to differ. I think a reboot should be a reboot, not the rework of the original. It would have been so interesting to see in where the story could go and was bummed out when they announced there would be no more.
I liked Robocop they are my favorite movies
In the 2014 remake, it's not his left hand that is salvaged, but his right. The hand he completely loses in the original and one reason that OG fans were pissed about the design of the new Robocop.
The right hand, that he was known to do his flourish with his pistol that he practiced for his son that loved a TV show where the hero did the same thing, was blown off.
It felt like a slap in the face. That and the remake went backwards with Murphy having humanity and losing it vs. gaining some semblance of it back.
The remake sucks. Should have been hard R. Feel bad for Joel.
I love watching RoboCop as a kid
very insightful, you watched the movies.
Great video! Alex Murphy was the first Robocop, but not the only Robocop. There was a TV miniseries where another was made. I don't know about the cartoon or the comics, but it's possible that those had other Robocops as well. Something to consider for a future video. And don't worry too much about your voice in the video. So what if it's strange sounding to others, it's wonderful that you can speak multiple languages. Not many people can. Joerg from the Slingshot Channel releases two videos regularly. One in his native German, another in English. Perhaps you can do something similar. Keep up the great work!

I think the tragedy of Robocop is that he’s not Alex Murphy. He’s a robot who becomes Alex Murphy.
no, he is human. the tragedy is that he is owned by the corporation. that's the whole point. for this reason, those commercials are inserted in.
I have read some drafts and in some of them, not all ofh Murphy's brain was used. Wish is pretty logicall depending on how much of his brain that was destroyed by the bullet.
Also is it the original Murphy in there or is it just that the computor part of his brain is taking copies from the brain and mthus making a copy of Murphy's consiousness and the orignal consiousness is dead?
Robocop goes rogue af and teams up with Punisher. Make it a 5 season series.
Peter Weller’s body also went through a lot in the suit….
Well, he’s really just a cybernetic organism aka a cyborg. He’s both human and machine.
I love how this doesn't actually answer the question that it's asking just points out what the watcher already knows
