|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yep-the criterion dvd version u mean? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
whats uncut about it? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
violence |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
wasn't there violence in the original..? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Tell me the differences? Whats the uncut version got? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
tamed down violence, the director was crazy about violence, it was originally gonna be rated 'x'. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Jesus. Must be pretty violent! The cut version was pretty full on. He did Starship Troopers as well didn't he? Both really good films I reckon. Kind of satirical as well. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
dear dear Paul Verhoeven. he's Dutch you know.. he wants to make a film about Jesus Christ, if I remember correctly.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he can really choose his topics |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah man, the ED-209 scene where he shoots the employee goes on a lot longer. You see more damage to Murphy when he gets shot by Clarance's gang too, it's pretty fucking awful stuff =oD Great! "Can you flyyy Bobby" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Yea, tha X-rated Robocop has longer scenes- *where ED-209 goes berserk *occurs when Lewis and Murphy chase Clarence's gang in the van. In the R-rated version, when Murphy shoots Bobby in the leg, you witness it as though you were looking through Murphy's eyes. However, in the unrated version, the camera zooms in on the area of of Bobby's leg being shot and graphically details the impact of each bullet. *The most extensively cut sequences involves the murder of Peter Weller's character, Murphy. The director's cut is almost a full minute longer. It shows Murphy's arm being shot off (cut completely from the R-rated version) and also includes an elaborate tracking shot that shows the back of his head exploding into the camera when he is finally shot by Clarence Boddicker. This shot is especially missed because it made use of a fully mechanical prosthetic Murphy built by make-up special effect artist Rob Bottin. The unrated director's cut also includes a longer shot of Murphy's hand being shot off and the camera lingering on his reaction and his stump. *Several seconds were also added to the scene where RoboCop finally kills Clarence by stabbing him in the neck. |

hey, speaking of robocop, i just watched it on tv the other night. what do you guys think of that song they are playing in that club robo goes into, to get one of clarence's gang members. do you know if you can find it on the net or if there was a soundtrack that they might've made for the movie with that song on it? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hah! I know the answer! From the IMDB: The song "Show Me Your Spine" by P.T.P. is playing in the club when RoboCop arrests Leon. This song, which features vocals by Nivek Ogre of Skinny Puppy, has never been released in any format and can only be heard in this scene. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
HAHAHA! YEAH! that's what i'm talkin'bout, baby baby! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah I am interested.. so is Verhoeven is a Fascist?... opinions... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

That version was the first version I ever saw in the UK, and the one that was available to buy on VHS. Only on TV broadcasts did they cut that stuff out. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Er, not in my copy. The uncut version was only ever released on the dvd to my knowlege. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have it...on VHS...upstairs with all those bits in it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
That movie traumatized me when I was a wee little lad... and that was the original... I'd probably be a full blown serial killer now if I'd seen it UNCUT. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Thas fuggin bonkers... well, even the rental I used to get every day (I had tonsilitus (sp) when I was 12 and rented it every day for like, two weeks) didn't have those bits. You must have the "under the shelf" copy ;oD |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I will go and have a look and see what release it was. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well, it says on the IMDB that the uncut one was passed in 2001, so if your copy has the bits left in, you may have a super rare version! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
dude, when i was a wee lad, i walked in to the theater during the part where that dude drives the truck into the toxic waste and like melts or some shiz, it was love at first sight! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
how long is your uncut dvd? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
7" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Paul Verhoeven is a classic, if you own the dvd then you can access one of the featurettes called " Flesh and Steel" about the making of the film. In it there's Verhoeven raving on about the anticrist and the "crucifiction to create the reserection" I think he called it . It's all quite interesting and a good laugh if you enjoyed the film, and theres also deleted scenes, one of which is for a topless pizza restraunt with that character known for the line "I'd buy that for a dollar", funny shit indeed! |
||||||||
|

|
|
Anyone got a rip of the dvd I can get? Trade? I gotta see this... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh yeah, and not to forget it has both the Original Version and Directors Cut, the DVD I have is a Region 4 release and is simply titled Robocop:Special Edition |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I liked Robocop. extremely violent, but also poignant in a way. I even liked Robocop 2 which most people seem to hate.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'd buy that for a dollar! What a saying. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
lets not forget that this is the guy who brought us Showgirls. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
