Robocop is a scathing critique on capitalism. What's nuts is I don't think everyone gets that. It's literally the underlying theme of the movie.
Same thing happens with starship troopers. People miss the fact it's a critique of fascism and colonialism even though the movie ends with Nazi uniforms.
In all fairness, the Starship Troopers sequels forget the point of the first film too. And the fact that movies are supposed to be watchable.
I had no idea there was a sequel. Based on what you say about it, I'll try to fake believing that is still the case.
There are 4 sequels. I think I have only seen most of 2 and a part of 3. They're super low budget and completely miss the point, as I recall.
Four! lol, oh man, I bet they get awful.
It was certainly a waste of my Family Video rental fee
The actual IP gem is the early 2000s CGI cartoon Roughnecks that was far closer to the original book. Underrated, bit also hard to find.
But the movie has cool guns and explosions so who cares about that when we have shiny thing?
I'd buy that for a dollar!
This is off topic and super nerdy.
The phrase was originally "I'd buy that for a quarter" and it came from a story called "The Marching Morons" by CM Kornbluth.
That story was the basis of the movie "Idiocracy."
This also applies to Warhammer 40K. Not everyone seems to get that universe is messed up.
Verhoeven is an understated genius.
We haven't gone far enough down the timeline to see little X$Σ≞ Musk cutting off the mutant's air supply on Mars yet, but I have confidence we'll get there.
I need Verhoeven to fuck my shit up today. What other movie of him will do that?
try "Flesh and Blood (1985)" its nasty
I didn't get that when I watched it, it was just a great action movie for me. But to be fair I was 12.
It's in the trailer, so not really a spoiler.
New movie Mickey 17 is exactly that idea. Guy gets a job where he is expected to die and 'respawn' over and over.
I wasn't a fan of the book, but the movie looks good.
And Max Headroom.
You remember Steve from IT? The only one who knew how to manage our backend infrastructure? Well, after that unfortunate plane crash, we uploaded the entire contents of his laptop, cellphone, and personal cloud to an artificial AI. We were able to revive him to bring him back. Even better now, because we have him resurrected in simulated form, he now exists in a perpetual state of working at the office and no longer needs to go home to rest or be with his family. That means with the new 24x7 productivity, we are expecting increased profits for this next quarter.
This planet must be destroyed, immediately
They selected him and others and purposely moved them to dangerous areas so they could get a RoboCop. So it's worse than the meme suggests.
Bro literally giving 110% 💪👊
With only about 34% of his body remaining.
A true inspiration to us all
Sacrifice your body, mind and autonomy to the system. Kill to protect property. Make every waking moment about maintaining and advancing our corporate overlords' wealth and control.
This is the way.
Time to watch Moon again.
They took permanent employee literally
I wish I had this kind of job security
Dead Like Me: we are just temps
Possibly the most Cyberpunk movie of all time.
