    The guy screaming while ripping off his own head traumatized the fuck out of me when I was 5. These 80s movies were hardcore.

            There is, and it’s not completely terrible (but not a patch on the original). A bit 90s era “Winners don’t do drugs” preachiness, but it is from the director of The Empire Strikes Back, so at least it’s competent.

            Robocop 3 on the other hand… How the fuck do you make a robot ninja boring?

            There was a bunch of made for TV, straight to bargain bin drek as well. Can’t even be bothered to look up the name of it.

              Wait, what? There’s Robocop 3 too!? WTH? Where the hell did I live in the past 2 decades? Is this a simulation or something?

              Anw, what’s your opinion on the reboot version?

                Deeply average and forgettable. Not Avatar The Last Airbender levels of bad, but if you’ve nothing new to add, there isn’t really a point remaking it.
