RoboCop, 1987
from Your Father's Favorite Movies
@YFFMPodcast The 1987 movie, RoboCop. "Part man. Part Machine. All cop." Keep crime off the streets of Detroit, and corruption out of 15 story boardrooms with Peter Weller, Nancy Allen, Kurtwood Smith, Ronny Cox, and Michael Ferrer. This episode we are joined by *actual human police officer* Ryan to give some fresh takes on this 80's classic. We get to ask him hot takes on the realism of this absurdist action flick, like.. is it police protocol to dual wield pistols out the window of a police car while you're chasing a suspect? How close are police units to having co-ed locker rooms? and how many windows is appropriate for throwing a non-compliant suspect through? All in the YFFM crew is in agreement about this "So good, it's good" satirical Reagan-era reaction to corporate greed and automation, that also just plain kicks ass. Now who wouldn't buy that for a dollar?! Directed by Paul Verhoeven. Written by Edward Neumeier & Michael Miner.
