The RoboCop make-up and costume took about eleven hours a day the first few times they put it on him. Then they got it down to about seven hours. The Doctors and Nurses who were working on Murphy at the Hospital were a real Emergency Room staff. The writers never knew how to write that scene so they hired real Doctors and Nurses and told them the situation and they did what they would actually do if that were a real situation.
I was born in 1973. I was 14 when this hit theaters. You asked how the 80's were. They were actually pretty incredible! We didn't have almost ANY of the tech you referrred to. We ALSO DIDN'T have the same safety concerns when kids were playing or, in this case, watching movies. It's quite amazing where this world has gone compared to then. It could be an eye opening research topic for someone to compare and contrast 1984 with ACTUAL 2024, away from movie comparisons. It just wouldn't do real credit. It is like us watching Back to the Future in '85 to SEE what it was like in '55 vs my parents actually living it. Way different socially. The Andy Griffith show highlights a LOT of the differences, having been made WAY BACK when TV shows were trying to impart moral values for society and comedy...
I grew up in the 80's and Robocop was the only one I wasn't allowed to watch. First saw it last year. Back to the Future, Short Circuit, Flight of The Navigator are also amazing 80's movies I highly recommend watching. And to answer your question, no CGI was used in this movie. CGI was around back then, but it was expensive and the Director couldn't afford it, so went for stop-motion, matte paintings and amazing special effects. They couldn't even afford the hire of the thermal vision tech that Robocop uses. All the actors wore painted bodysuits and filmed in a dark room to achieve the effect.
Me, I grew up in the Sixties. So by the Eighties I was a young student in Passau, Germany. The ROBOCOP movie had been daed meat in the eyes of professional critics and by the public opinion. But some outsiders like me liked it from the start. ROBOCP needed YEARS to gain a cutl following enven more as for example TERMINATOR or HIGHLANDER. Even the TV show was grwonded just after one season due to bad response. 4:10 I DON´T RECOCGINIZE ANY OF THOSE ACTORS.. Problem, ROBOCOP counted from the start as a Slasher movie sort of So big shot names did not wanted to be involved in this project. Nancy Allen; Officer Louis; for example came from the Softporno movies, an actress looking for more serious jobs. And Mel Ferrer; Bob Morton; back in 1987 had just experience with small roles on TV, he later had played in CROSSING JORDAN and NAVY CIS L.A.
The hospital scene isn't them trying to save him. Those are OCP doctors, going through the motions to officially declare him dead. They used his fresh corpse to build a machine, they did not bring him back to life
The cops on strike wernt the same ones who were trying to destroy Robo - that was the same SWAT team that were at the town hall when the guy was holding the Mayor hostage as it was the same guy in charge. You actually see the cops pleading with them not to shoot.
Great reaction! I love this cool movie. This is one of the best fight scenes. Apparently the ED-209 robot was in a lot of pain after he accidentally shot himself in the arm. The robot was shaking violently, and he had a short circuit from pain 32:05 ⚡🤖😆
I was born in 1980. I remover watching this movie constantly. I loved it. The 80s just had extremely violent movies. Arnold and Stallone all made really violent movies. I’ve always been a horror fan and sci fi and Robocop has both elements with a great sense of humor. I watch Beastmaster all the time and that has a guy throwing a baby into a fire, beserkers who have a leach in their ear that eats their brain, scary ass witches, and those damn bird things. I always knew the violence was fake and it didn’t bother me. I did feel bad for Mr Kenny getting shot to shit. Same in Total Recall where Arnold just grabs a random guy on the escalator and uses him as a human shield.
@@NeedumReacts You really do! If you liked Robocop it’s by the same director and just entertaining all the way through. Great practical effects. The ending is ambiguous. I have my opinion on it but I won’t say anymore
But they weren't. This movie is awesome because it's a satire of horrors that were really happening. Corporate takeover and dehumanization of society. We never recovered. The world we live in is post-apocalyptic in some ways.
44:40 IS THIS THE END - the story line went two ways from here the movies and the TV series from 1994 with the small assumption that they took the idea with the little girl from Part 3 into the series also
Louis did NOT land on 'something soft'. She landed on a stack of railroad tie beams covered with a tarp, after a 20 foot drop, after a PUNCH in the FACE!. She did make Big mistake. But it proves her to be a bad ass, tough cop, to have the WILL to get up and try to help her partner...
Fun fact this movie tries to be a sci-fi/American retelling of the story of Jesus with Robocop‘s design being a rip off on robotic comic book characters the film makers were fans of along with Judge Dredd I think.
Bro check out RoboDoc it's not long came out 4 hours of the making of Robocop discusses all the behind the scenes practical effects and all the mayhem involved to make the film. When Robo took off his helmet near the end thats 100% practical.
20:44 earlier in the movie they said they were going to blank his memory meaning they erased his memories in his brain but as we see some manage to return, maybe his human soul was trying to bring it back.

holy shit 11 hours even 7 hours is crazy lol
That guy at 12:42... Forty years and all this technology later, and still nobody can screw anything in without cursing.
hahaha
To help u, all white powder in 80s movies and real life is cocaine, and the answer to 90% of your other questions...is cocaine. :)
"You Kknow what I used to have for breakfast?... COCAINE" name the movie

cops going on strike is still insane to me lol
17:30 "You now have no use for the woman, let her go."

@@CyberMan-gi2pm appreciate it!
@@NeedumReacts That reminds me, the movie Short Circuit from the 80s!
Gremlins 2: The New Batch. You won't regret it 😁
what about gremlins one lol
@@NeedumReacts I was hedging my bets in case you'd seen it so this way rather than 0 to 1 movies I get you to react to 1 to 2 of them! 😁
Two cameo's in the 6000 SUX commercial: Monte Python's Eric Idle and director Paul Verhoeven.

i gotta watch total recall

@@justinbarnett9476 I’m for sure gonna watch total recall I’ve always known about it but never watched it
There is black RoboCop on RoboCop 3.
The eighties were the best.
thats the vibe ive been getting lately lol
But they weren't. This movie is awesome because it's a satire of horrors that were really happening. Corporate takeover and dehumanization of society. We never recovered. The world we live in is post-apocalyptic in some ways.
@@dudermcdudeface3674 Satire is a double edged weapon.

the movies and the TV series from 1994 with the small assumption that they took the idea with the little girl from Part 3 into the series also
Isn't it amazing how they forgot to make good movies? The art of storytelling actually suffers with bloated budgets and corporate writing teams.
yea, I also think storylines were a lot simpler back then.
Bob Morton was spending night with two hustlers. What would have happened had he not been interrupted?
Louis did NOT land on 'something soft'. She landed on a stack of railroad tie beams covered with a tarp, after a 20 foot drop, after a PUNCH in the FACE!. She did make Big mistake. But it proves her to be a bad ass, tough cop, to have the WILL to get up and try to help her partner...
Try robocop 2
if there's alot of interest in it I will give it a watch at some point. any other movie suggestions?
Nowhere near as good as the original
Robocop 2 is awesome@@NeedumReacts
5:18 stop motion.
the robot looks really good. i forgot thats what they also did in terminator 1 as well
The 1980s were godawful. The one bright spot was this movie. I was 17 when it came out and I thought it was the greatest thing ever made.
hahaha at least the movies were great
Robocop 2 is good. It’s worth watching. Part 3 isn’t good though and Peter Weller doesn’t reprise his role as Robocop in the 3rd movie.
Fun fact this movie tries to be a sci-fi/American retelling of the story of Jesus with Robocop‘s design being a rip off on robotic comic book characters the film makers were fans of along with Judge Dredd I think.
22:22 I think that's a MAC-10
i think your right
@@NeedumReacts Most always mistake the 2, even early GTA. Tho tbf, it is basically America's Uzi.
Loved your reaction. You should do a reaction to Robocop 2.
ill try to get to it soon
Bro check out RoboDoc it's not long came out 4 hours of the making of Robocop discusses all the behind the scenes practical effects and all the mayhem involved to make the film. When Robo took off his helmet near the end thats 100% practical.
im for sure gonna check that out. thanks!
20:44 earlier in the movie they said they were going to blank his memory meaning they erased his memories in his brain but as we see some manage to return, maybe his human soul was trying to bring it back.
Im from the 60's. When we could made jokes without some one crying about tber filing. In the 90"s and women men became cry babies.
yea everyone's soft now, unfortunately.
Can you react to the movie “Never say never again (1983)”? It’s based on the novel “Thunderball (1961)”.
i will add it to the list
@@NeedumReacts can you also add the movie “Orca: The killer whale (1977)” to your list?
@@t.o.toonstubetwo.4138 possibly. right now i wanna focus on bigger movies until the channel grows then start doing smaller ones.
@@NeedumReacts okay 👌.
27:23 I think cocaine.
Please react to RoboCop 2 it explorers a idea you mentioned (briefly).
i will try my best to get to it soon
@@NeedumReacts thanks.
