How you became a RoboCop fan ?

[KidGoesWild]

I was the only one knowing about RoboCop. I saw it in late 89 I think and no one heard about it (from my friends). It was me who spread it around but my friends were so scared and traumatized after seeing this movie that they were afraid that their parents will find out what kind of a movie they watched. At the time no one had ever imagined a brutal movie like this one. It wasnt until all the hype and promotion for R2 kicked in next year that everyone was suddenly a Robo fan and video games and posters were all over the place

I also remember that by the time I was in Jr High School, nobody my age liked the movies. Kids liked Terminator and Star Wars, but no Robocop. I remember always stumbling upon random Robocop items and VHS tapes at yard sales and flea markets. Man I wish I would have bought some of that stuff. Not all of it was junk, and even the used things I remember finding, it would have been nice to have for the heck of it.

When did i became a RoboFan, pretty much forever, by the time the movie was out i was born too and i remember watching it in a never ending loop, sometimes 6 times a day on a weekend but the experience that i remember from it that clearly is litterally my first FAN act.

I needed a lil surgery done at the age of 4 i guess, i dont really remember it, but what i can remember is when every kids brought plush toys, gi joes and other similar stuff you can find in a toy box, i had the robocop vhs on my hands and couldnt let it go, it was my personnal favorite and it still is, i had this surgery done and yet i couldnt let the VHS go that easily and when i got back home the first thing i did was to put that sucker in and play the VHS.

For years to come i been a robocop fan, collecting various pieces of item that had the robocop label on it, video game based on robocop too.

It represents my real first experience of being a robo fan

Don't remember the first time I saw Robocop 1; it's one of those movies I grew up with, it was always "there"... (makes me wish I could blank my memory so I could watch all these 80s classics again for the first time) ...but at some point it became my favourite. It was on TV after the watershed once, I think I was about 11, and I remember it showed Murphy's hand being blown off more graphically than the usual TV cut, and how all the other kids were talking about that part next day in class like it was the best, scariest, grossest thing ever.

I think I always looked away during that moment when I was younger, but that time I didn't and I watched the whole thing through properly. Only that particular shot (and Murphy's death scene) affected me that way... the rest of the movie is still pretty damn violent but you don't notice it so much when you're a kid, maybe. You know the bad guys are getting creamed and that's fine - they deserve it... it's the moment the good guy was getting tortured and killed that affected us kids the most. And rightly so, I guess.

The movie has a lot more to it than just the action, obv. Something about it scared me - the idea losing everything, of your body being state property and being stuck in a machine, and the idea of a corrupt corporation/authority dawned on me first from watching this movie - but I loved it, I loved the characters, I love the way by the end Murphy "comes back" - kind of. Even the bad guys are such wonderful b*stards, you love them. Too young to appreciate all of the neat cynical humour back then, but I sure got attached to this movie.

The guys on a blog called "Life Between Frames" said it best I think:

i was possibly 5 at the time, my family on a friday or saturday night would rent movies from our local shops, shop was RITZ video if anyone in their late twenties remember it.

And i went up with my uncle and i chose Robocop, just based on the fact he looked awesome.

My mum didnt mind me wtching movies like that at that age.

and needless to say my sponge like 5 year old mind took in the awesomeness that was Robocop. I fell in love with the Auto9, and the 6000sux.

One of my favorite lines is "state of the art x x bang bang" (x being the sound clarence makes)

I'm sure if y'all really wanted, Archive or one of the mods could repost all that stuff over here. If you were to ask nicely, that is.

Of course he could still punch you in the nuts anyway, but that's the chance you take with that jerk.

Somehow I went past the movie in my childhood in the eighties, and I don't really think that I would have been interested in it, due to my non-interest in robots and such. So at th age of 36, me, a female languages teacher came across this robo2014 'trailer' on Youtube, and checked the rating of the first film on RT. I didn't even know that it was directed by Verhoeven, so I thought let me give it a try. It was definitely worth it .
