Having recently bought "RoboCop: Rogue City" on Steam, I'm concluding my posts about it today.
An analog relic of a bygone era spotted in RoboCop: Rogue City.

Having recently bought "RoboCop: Rogue City" on Steam, I'm going to continue to post about it over the next few days.
ED-209 makes an appearance several times in the game - with predictable outcomes.
If you've like me and ever wondered what's under the hood of an ED-209, voilà! Enjoy the pictures here.
He's as loyal as a puppy.

Having recently bought "RoboCop: Rogue City" on Steam, I'm going to continue to post about it over the next few days.
The early to mid 90's vibe is faithfully recreated, complete with CRT monitors, command line prompt computers, stereos, floppy disks, and plenty of cigarettes.
The aesthetics are a complete vibe.

I recently bought "RoboCop: Rogue City" on Steam.
I can report that the early to mid 90's vibe is faithfully recreated.
Enjoy the aesthetics of a gritty downtown Detroit, which never looked so good.
Expect to see more posts over the next few days.

Steam's "Cyberpunk Fest" is on now until August 10th.
Plenty of games are discounted, "RoboCop: Rogue City" & its expansion "Unfinished Business" are among them.
This was the extra push I needed to pick-up the game, and a few DLC's.
I'd buy that for a dollar.

To celebrate Total Recall turning 36 years old recently, look forward to some follow-up posts.
Total Recall offers a glimpse in the future where ESPN, Hilton Hotels & Resorts, Pepsi, Philips, Coca-Cola, and Fujifilm seem to be just some of the larger corporations which advertise very prominently.

The protagonist "waking up" with amnesia, putting the pieces of a puzzle together while staying in a hotel filled with clues, a call from a strange contact, a dive bar, and an evil corporation. The only downside is that you can't re-watch it for the first time again.

Our first piece of information that Douglas Quaid isn't who he seems to be is the way he manages to kill would be assassins in cold-blooded efficiency.
The film kicks into high gear from here on out, living up to the of "Get ready for the ride of your life" tagline.

Total Recall turns 36 years old today. It premiered back in 1990.
Based off "We Can Remember It for You Wholesale" penned by Philip K. Dick, it earned $260+ million dollars.
It did get a 2012 remake, but I think it's safe to say the original is better received.
In honour of Total Recall, I'll be posting one or two follow-up videos.

Happy New Years!
Hopefully yours is more low key than Alex Murphy from RoboCop.

I haven't posted about Paul Verhoeven, or his his directorial trademark of over the top graphic violence punctuated with a liberal use of squibs in a while. So...
Pick your favourite Paul Verhoeven film:

To celebrate the recent birthday of Paul Verhoven, I'll be posting clips over the next few days celebrating his directorial trademark: over the top graphic violence punctuated with a liberal use of squibs!
Enjoy a fan favourite: ED-209.

Today is July 18th, and it's also the birthday of Paul Verhoeven! Here he is, pictured in this brief one second cameo scene in RoboCop. That kind of frantic energy comes across in so many of his films.

On this day 32 years ago in 1992, "RoboCop" premiered.
RoboCop is often described as an over-the-top action movie. Sure, you can describe it that way, because on the surface it is. But, you can dig a bit deeper. RoboCop has some gut-wrenching scenes of a man attempting to recapture his humanity.
I normally post action scenes, but I'll post a more sombre scene from RoboCop today.

If you haven't played RoboCop: Rogue City yet, now is the perfect time.
Both RoboCop: Rogue City & RoboCop: Rogue City Alex Murphy Edition are 30% off on Steam until January 4th.
I'd buy that for a dollar.

Cyberjack (also known as Virtual Assassin) stars Michael Dudikoff and Brion James. It's more of an obscure cyberpunk movie and could be (generously) described as a guilty pleasure from the 90's.
Interestingly, there is a shot where a computer monitor displays "Skynet" clearly. I doubt this movie shares any kind of universe with the Terminator.

I present to you, dear reader, the single greatest piece of RoboCop lore which comes directly from "RoboDoc: The Creation of RoboCop".
You're welcome.

To celebrate the birthday of Paul Verhoeven, please enjoy Arnold Schwarzenegger using an innocent bystander as a meat shield. This scene from Total Recall is also up there on the top 10 use of squibs.
As I wrap-up my posts regarding Mr. Verhoeven for now, I think this video makes for a good final post.

I'm continuing to celebrate the birthday of Paul Verhoeven. To that end, I'm yet again posting a video with his signature trademark: Graphic violence punctuated with a liberal use of squibs.
Today's clip from "Starship Troopers" may not feature squibs per se, but it's violent, and sets the tone for the film. So, enjoy!

Up next is the classic "RoboCop" boardroom scene. The inherent dark humor of ED-209 not understanding a command and proceeding to obliterate a corporate suit is one of the movies more memorable scenes. But, this guy worked for OCP, so he probably had it coming anyway.
This could also be a contender for the most over-the-top use of squibs in any movie.
