Robocop 1987
Time for a rewatch!
The issue is that, in the reality they don’t actually need to aid criminals.

Where’s this from please? Looks amazing.
I think it’s a pre-war Benito Mussolini propaganda poster
wow, I was assuming metropolis. it just screams dystopia to me, but I guess they had to get that aesthetic from somewhere
It was certainly a dystopia for many people. Such places have existed many times before. We shouldn’t take our freedom for granted.
Yes, it was a „election poster“ for the 1934 „elections“, and the building is the Palazzo Braschi, where the fascist party had their HQ.
The „SI“ all over the poster is Italian for yes, since the „choice“ you had in this „election“ was this: yes or no… (They were already in power at the time, so that was no real election.)

Thanks!
The guy screaming while ripping off his own head traumatized the fuck out of me when I was 5. These 80s movies were hardcore.
What scene was that?!?!
Prototype robits
Robocop 2
I’d buy that for a dollar
Don’t forget about the part where RoboCop shoots a guy in the dick
Well he was gonna assault that lady in the terrible blonde wig, what was Robo supposed to do?
I’ve said before, but we need to stop making dystopian films/tv because it just gives them ideas.
Sadly any sort of criticism of the police or social commentary in these kinds of police movies go right over the heads of the “thin blue line” people. They see cop movie, they automatically assume they’re the good guys, no exceptions. I’ve seen them try to find any way to justify misconduct by police characters in fiction, even when it’s obvious the author almost certainly intended for those actions to be viewed negatively.
Do we get also a Directive 4?
