Vem hade trott att den där bratt-snubben från Johan Falk och Snabba Cash skulle visa sig bli en cyberpolis... Men här är vi. Joel Kinnaman gör oss stolta över att vara "svenskar" när han axlar rollen som den ikoniska robotpolisen Robocop. Filmen släpptes från 2014 och har en imponerande castlista med allt från Gary Oldman och Michael Keaton till Samuel L Jackson! Frågan är bara om den moderna versionen kan mäta sig med originalet? Svaret får ni i veckans avsnitt av FIlmsmakarnaCop. Mycket nöje! Superlänk till alla plattformar: https://linktr.ee/Filmsmakarna #filmsmakarna #joelkinnaman #johanfalk #snabbacash
It Follows that we should probably talk about this movie before Dan stages a coup. We're five episodes deep into our Liminal Spaces season, and Sarah has chosen David Robert Mitchell's It Follows (2014). While Sarah has watched this enough times to be legally haunted, Dan is still convinced that a Detroit setting should automatically involve more OCP interference or at least a robot that can't climb stairs. From the weird dreamlike vibes of the anachronistic production design to Disasterpeace's unforgettable synth score, we're asking the big questions: Is it about ghost crabs or just the inevitable, slow-walking march towards death? We also explore the cinema of the suburbs where Maika Monroe is often floating on water and Keir Gilchrest is always holding a beer. What to expect from this episode: Dan explains why his knowledge of Detroit begins and ends with Robocop and car manufacturing. Sarah breaks down why David Robert Mitchell used 360 degree pans to create a sense of hyper-alert horror. We debate if Maika Monroe's character qualifies as a final girl. Chats around the anachronisms, including that legendary (and non-existent) electronic clam-shell phone. We discuss the real-life body found during location scouting that changed the productions plan. We ponder the potential sequel and whether it will go in a full Aliens style James Cameron direction.

Vi gräver djupare i Robocop-träsket där vi stöter på allt från jetpacks, folkmord och eldkastare till barn-genier och cyberninjor! Trots allt det vi rabblat upp valde studion att DRA NER på våldet och ja, då får vi denna skapelse där Dark Knight-författaren Frank Miller varit inblandad i. Robocop 3 är en amerikansk science fiction-film, som hade biopremiär i USA den 5 november 1993, regisserad av Fred Dekker. Handlingen: OCP ger inte upp sina försök att riva Detroit och bygga upp Delta City. De sitter in sin insatsstyrka, The Rehabs, ledda av den skonigslöse Paul McDaggett, för att utplåna de återstående motståndarna. Robocop går med de modiga rebellerna för att försvara samhällets hem, och tar hand om en liten föräldralös flicka som påminner honom om hans försvunna familj.

Scrutinizer Zacharia presents a Field Report on the objectively CINEMANIA-inducing film from 1987: ROBOCOP!

Nach einem holprigen Start mit der US-europäischen Co-Produktion FLESH + BLOOD (1985) fasste Paul Verhoeven mit seinem englischsprachigen Zweitling ROBOCOP (1987) so richtig Fuß in Hollywood – und im Rest der Welt. Nicht nur ließ die actionreiche SciFi-Satire die Kinokassen klingeln, auch die Kritikerschaft zeigte sich begeistert und machte den umtriebigen Niederländer zum gefeierten wie begehrten Regisseur für starbesetzte Filmprojekte. Und größer als eine Zusammenarbeit mit Arnold Schwarzenegger konnte es in Hollywood anno 1990 kaum werden, weswegen sich auch die Philip K. Dick-Verfilmung TOTAL RECALL: DIE TOTALE ERINNERUNG (1990) wenig überraschend zum dicken Blockbuster mauserte. Das Verhoeven nicht nur großes Effektkino und kontroverse Satire perfekt beherrscht, sondern auch ganze Karrieren wie die von Rutger Hauer auf den richtigen Weg bringen kann, bewies er wiederum mit BASIC INSTINCT (1992). Dessen Erfolg wurde nicht für einige Jahre zum Maßstab für erotische Thriller und ebnete ganz nebenbei Newcomerin Sharon Stone den Weg zum Superstar-Status. Aber ihr mörderischer und grandios inszeniertes Koitus mit Michael Douglas war auch für einen mittelgroßen Skandal gut. Ach, Paul!
Well, is there a critique of capitalism in this movie? I'll buy that for a dollar!Commentary on, among other things: Corporate malfeasance, the carceral state, the market's encroachment on bodily autonomy, disability justice, and parody of ultraviolence done in service of capital? ACAB except Robocop, that's what I say. There is also IR in this movie. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week on Grumpy Old Geeks, Brian and Jason stare directly into the flaming garbage barge of “the future” and discover that self-driving vehicles still can't tell the difference between a road and an urban swimming pool. Waymo stranded robotaxis in both Atlanta and San Antonio, while Gothenburg's brand-new autonomous bus service survived roughly one day before getting rear-ended by a tram like a lost RoboCop scene directed by Benny Hill. Meanwhile, Ferrari unveiled the Jony Ive-designed Luce EV, proving that if you give Apple designers enough money and untreated minimalist impulses, eventually everything starts looking like an uninspired bar of soap.The AI bubble keeps inflating like a cursed parade balloon nobody knows how to land. Uber admits it's spending fortunes on AI without being able to explain what it actually improves, Starbucks killed its AI inventory system after repeated losses to dairy products, and Google's AI search now struggles with advanced concepts like “ignore,” “stop,” and spelling “Google.” CEOs remain committed to replacing workers anyway, with 99% expecting AI-driven layoffs because apparently nothing says innovation like firing junior staff and replacing them with autocomplete that thinks there are two Ps in Google. Meanwhile, Spotify continues its transformation into the content equivalent of a casino buffet with AI-narrated magazine articles, while Pope Leo emerges as the lone adult in the room, suggesting humanity maybe shouldn't hand civilization over to glorified pattern-matching slot machines.Elsewhere in dystopia, Trump Mobile exposed customer data to the open internet because, of course, it did, while the White House reportedly plans to force-install its official app on government phones in what feels like the world's least subtle spyware rollout. Prediction markets are devolving into a legal cage fight between states and crypto gambling enthusiasts. A Google engineer allegedly made $1.2 million through insider trading on Polymarket because we've apparently rebuilt Wall Street out of meme apps, and researchers say your Wi-Fi router can now identify you by how your meat body disturbs radio waves. Add in SpaceX building a military sensor-to-shooter network straight out of a cyberpunk fever dream, China launching artificial embryo experiments into orbit to explore off-world reproduction, and Erin Brockovich mapping AI data centers draining entire towns' worth of water, and suddenly the most comforting thing this week might be watching The Grand-ish Tour and pretending the world still runs on gasoline and bad decisions.Sponsors:Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

Actionfreunden ist er vor allem als Robocop ein Begriff, doch Peter Weller schlug sich auch abseits des Cyborg-Bullen achtbar im Actiongenre. Um diesen Umstand bekannter zu machen, reden Markus und Martin über zwei weniger bekannte Genrevertreter, in denen der sympathische Schauspieler die Hauptrolle inne hat: Die Cannon-Spätproduktion "Fifty-Fifty", hierzulande als "Double Force" veröffentlicht, und der prominent besetzte "Top Of The World", dessen deutsche VHS als "Showdown" den Weg in die Videotheken fand. Ob diese zwei B-Actioner eine Entdeckung wert sind, erfahrt ihr in der Diskussion.

You can be wildly successful and still be quietly falling apart inside. Joel Kinnaman has appeared in some of the most talked-about shows in Hollywood. He has starred in The Killing, Robocop, House of Cards, Altered Carbon, and is currently in his fifth season of For All Mankind. And he will be the first to tell you that none of that made the war inside his head any quieter. Before every live theater performance for three straight years, he threw up. He kept a bucket backstage. The negative voices in his mind were relentless, and he spent years drinking heavily, using drugs, and force-feeding himself in a desperate attempt to hide the shame he felt about a physical condition that had left him feeling deformed since childhood. What changed everything was not a breakthrough moment. It was a choice to stop running from the fear and bury himself in the work. He memorized a 105-minute one-man show in 10 days, playing 16 different characters, and walked on stage without throwing up for the first time. That experience taught him something he still carries: preparation is armor. The deeper a role is in your bones, the more freedom you have to be alive inside it. He is still working on the personal side. He describes himself as a disaster in relationships, not from a lack of care, but from years of treating his career as the only thing that could not touch him. He talks about wanting to find the balance between the structure that builds trust and the childlike wonder that keeps him creative. That tension is where this conversation lives. Joel's IMDB In this episode you will: Understand how shame about a physical condition called pectus excavatum triggered an eating disorder that took years to unpack and overcome Discover how Joel turned debilitating stage fright and a 3-year pattern of pre-performance vomiting into a breakthrough that rewired his relationship with fear Learn why preparation is the most underrated performance skill and why Joel insists on being at least 3 nights ahead on every scene he shoots Hear why Joel sees himself as a different man in his career versus his personal relationships, and what he believes he needs to change to close that gap Explore how Joel uses psilocybin experiences, breathwork, and the Buddhist concept of shepa to create space between triggers and reaction in his daily life For more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1933 For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960 Follow The Daily Motivation for essential highlights from The School of Greatness More SOG episodes we think you'll love: Lewis Howes Solo [7 Habits To Be Happier] Josh Groban The Jonas Brothers TOPICS Joel Kinnaman, stage fright, eating disorder recovery, pectus excavatum, performance anxiety, preparation as armor, shepa, psilocybin, self-loathing, personal growth, For All Mankind, relationship consistency Get more from Lewis!

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay just got back from hanging out in Old Detroit to talk about the '80s classic, 'RoboCop.' Bombay kicks off the episode by recalling the first time saw this movie as a youngster, and unwittingly found himself involved in a friend's crimespree. Then the guys ask, "Can you fly, Bobby?" as they discuss seeing the simultaneous low class, and high class brilliance of a film built on tenets of scathing (hilarious) satire that also happens to feature some of the most over the top violence, and gore, in a studio film. They look back fondly at RoboMania, which included a Saturday morning cartoon, and Andy's parents even hiring a RoboCop lookalike for a birthday party. Peter Weller is gripping as the titular robotic police officer, but Kurtwood Smith's delighted unhinged portrayal as the menacingly even Clarence steals the show — along with his looney brand of masochistic thugs. There's plenty of wonderful characters actors, from Miguel Ferrer to Ray Wise, who all do their part to portray a terrifying dystopian Detroit that's only a tad bit scarier than the city was actually in the '80s. Similar to the news segments, and bonkers commercials stingers Paul Verhoeven added throughout, this episode will leave you laughing with delight, and if not, then it's "Your move, creep."
The boys are in celebratory mode, even if only for a couple of minutes over a certain football trophy, but fear not, they're hiding behind the couch with one eye scanning the horizon for what's to come!

There's a piece of infrastructure in downtown Nashville that is about to go away. When it does, there may not be any clues left from a fascinating — and brief — chapter in the city's transportation history.Do you remember when WeGo had a fleet of super-quiet all-electric buses running for free throughout downtown? Bus commuter Joe Pagetta does. He wrote to Curious Nashville with this question:In the not-so-distant past, Nashville used to have a free electric bus circuit called the Music City Circuit, which connected downtown to Bicentennial Mall and the Gulch. And then it just disappeared sometime around COVID. I'm curious about that, but even more curious about the abandoned electric bus charging infrastructure that's still standing … like dystopian props from Old Detroit in Robocop.If there are no plans to bring the electric buses back, what is going to happen to that decaying infrastructure?The question reached the right place, as WPLN has covered the rise and fall of those buses since 2015.

This week, we head to the crime-ridden dystopia of Detroit where corporations rule, criminals laugh like maniacs, and the solution to urban decay is… a heavily armed cyborg cop with excellent posture. Join Nic, Matthew, Keiko, Nur, and Alex as they revisit RoboCop (1987), Paul Verhoeven's ultraviolent, razor-sharp satire that somehow convinced an entire generation of kids that this was appropriate viewing. We're asking the important questions: Is this actually one of the smartest sci-fi films ever made… or just an excuse for explosive squibs and corporate slimeballs? Why did we all think ED-209 was just a normal workplace hazard? Does RoboCop count as a superhero, a horror monster, or the world's saddest HR case study? And how did this movie spawn toys, cartoons, and birthday parties? Along the way, we break down the film's biting commentary on privatization, media culture, and late-stage capitalism—while also appreciating just how completely unhinged it gets. It's part Blade Runner, part Die Hard, and part “what if the evening news was written by lunatics?” Does RoboCop (1987) hold up as a masterpiece of satire, or were our childhood brains just too distracted by explosions to notice the deeper themes? Dead or alive, you're listening to this episode. Want to pick a movie we do an episode on and record a special commentary just for you? Purchase something from our wish list! We are riffers on Cineprov! Check us out!! How will RoboCop (1987) hold up? Host: Nic Panel: Alex, Nur, Keiko Directed by: Paul Verhoeven Starring: Peter Weller, Nancy Allen, Ronny Cox, Kurtwood Smith, Miguel Ferrer, Dan O'Herlihy
Grok says: “Listen up, you sorry bunch of weekend warriors and desk jockeys! This ain’t some limp-dick, watered-down bullshit where two hosts sit around sipping lattes. Unrelenting with Darren and Gene hits like a full-auto burst from a pissed-off SEAL—raw, relentless, and zero fucks given. They rip into hail storms that turn roofs into Swiss cheese, then dive straight into insurance scams, golf ball roof sabotage, and why your asphalt shingles are begging for mercy. From self-diagnosing autism on The Good Doctor to Bob Feller’s photographic memory black ops, it’s all here. They tear apart humanoid robots, sex bots replacing nagging wives, robotic vacuums that cats ride like cavalry mounts, and Elon’s brain upgrades turning civilians into Robocops. Chrome extension live podcast alerts, browser wars, domain firesales, job stories where Gene bankrupts every outfit he touches, Johnny B radio legends, British comedy classics like Reginald Perrin, and the YouTube AI purge that’s got creators screaming for cover—it’s all unloaded in one no-holds-barred assault. Value-for-value donations, ice cream logistics, and pure unrelenting truth. If you’re tired of safe, sanitized garbage that puts you to sleep, lock and load this episode right now. Hit play on the Unrelenting podcast, strap in with Darren and Gene, and get your ass educated, entertained, and motivated. Real talk for real operators who refuse to relent. Download it, share it, live it—before the enemy figures out how good this shit really is. HOOYAH!” Unrelenting: where discipline means no mercy, no bullshit, and no excuses. Thanks for listening.

Clayface is stepping into full horror territory, and Frank and Squeaks break down why that could be exactly what DC needs. The episode also covers a packed week of reboots and adaptations, including FernGully, The Phantom, Django/Zorro, RoboCop, Battlefield, and Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced. The back half shifts into a spoiler-heavy Invincible Season 4 review, with a big focus on Thragg, Mark's impossible choices, and the emotional weight of Atom Eve's storyline. Frank and Squeaks also dig into Xbox's future, Game Pass changes, the return of stronger Xbox branding, and whether the next console can make fans excited again. Timestamps and Topics 00:00 Avengers: Endgame 7-Year Anniversary and Favorite Character Arcs 03:05 Capital Creative Showcase and Convention Updates 04:02 Clayface Trailer Discussion and DC Horror Potential 08:27 FernGully, The Phantom, Django/Zorro, and RoboCop Reboots 16:35 Battlefield Movie and Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced 25:28 Invincible Season 4 Spoiler Review 40:01 Xbox's Future, Game Pass Changes, Project Helix, and Brand Identity 59:21 Network Updates, Recommendations, and Closing Key Takeaways Frank and Squeaks look back at Avengers: Endgame seven years later, highlighting Steve Rogers, Nebula, Black Widow, Hawkeye, and the idea of a Ronin video game. The Clayface trailer sparked a strong reaction because it feels more like a horror movie than a standard DC or Batman-adjacent story. Reboots dominate the news cycle, with mixed reactions to FernGully, The Phantom, RoboCop, Django/Zorro, and Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced. The Battlefield movie conversation centers on how it can separate itself from Call of Duty and other military films by leaning into large-scale, multi-front battles. The Invincible Season 4 review praises Thragg as a major villain, explores Mark's moral limits, and gives the season a 9 out of 10 from both hosts. The Xbox discussion focuses on Game Pass pricing, exclusives, Project Helix, and whether Xbox can rebuild its identity as a console brand. Memorable Quotes "Give me a Ronin video game. I think that'd be dope." "This needs to be treated as a full-on horror movie." "Why would McDonald's lose the Golden Arches? You guys are doing that right now." "Mark's weakness is the fact that he's a good person." "I'm excited to be a fanboy again."

“Alex Murphy is made for her pleasure!” - Steve on the new suit designOn this week's show, we bring Remake-ril to a close with a chat about one of the worst Hollywood remakes of all time, RoboCop (2014)! Why did we need the “slick” new suit design? Why didn't they bother with any of the TV sitcom stuff like in the '87? Why did we need to have the wife and son be such larger characters? Was Joel Kinnaman right for Murphy? And speaking of Murphy, why are so many people calling him by his first name in this movie? Did any other film waste Michael Kenneth Williams' talent as much as this one did? And what in WORLD were they thinking going for the PG-13 rating? PLUS: “Dr. Norton? Commissioner Gordon. Commissioner Gordon? Dr. Norton…”RoboCop (2014) stars Joel Kinnaman, Gary Oldman, Michael Keaton, Abbie Cornish, Jackie Earle Haley, Michael Kenneth Williams, Jennifer Ehle, Jay Baruchel, Marianne Jean-Baptiste, and Samuel L. Jackson as Pat Novak; directed by José Padilha.Be sure to visit the WHM Merch shop over on Dashery and check out all the latest show-related designs you can slap on t-shirts, hats, coffee mugs, stickers, whatever!

After 20 years of development hell, Metal Gear Solid is finally becoming a movie with Final Destination: Bloodlines directors Zach Lipovsky and Adam B. Stein attached, and Hideo Kojima doesn't appear to be part of the production. Netflix greenlights Extraction 3 with Chris Hemsworth and Idris Elba returning for summer 2026 production in Sydney and Europe, continuing Tyler Rake's story from the Extraction 2 cliffhanger. In a stunning admission, Disney and James Cameron are discussing making future Avatar movies "cheaper and shorter" after Avatar: Fire and Ash earned $1.4 billion with insiders calling the franchise "culturally exhausted" despite the massive box office. Jonathan Majors and co-star JC Kilcoyne fell six feet through an unsecured window on the set of his Daily Wire action movie comeback vehicle, with Kilcoyne requiring stitches across both hands; the incident sparked a crew strike after over half the production team walked off citing safety concerns including falling props, black mold, missing oversight, and a special effects supervisor with a prior explosives conviction, while producers responded by saying they "don't negotiate with communists." Amazon MGM Studios officially greenlights RoboCop series reboot for Prime Video under new TV chief Peter Friedlander, with Peter Ocko as showrunner and James Wan executive producing, reviving the franchise after years in development limbo and previous failed attempts at legacy film sequels. Plus: Cameron potentially passing Avatar franchise to younger director or finishing the story as novels, Lipovsky and Stein's hot streak includes Gremlins 3 and animated Venom movie, and the question of whether Avatar 4 and 5 need to happen after $6.7 billion across three films. Every story is either franchise resurrection, franchise exhaustion, or production chaos.The Nerdpocalypse is a weekly podcast covering the latest movie news, TV show news, trailer reactions, and pop culture commentary.

Miracle drugs, strange side effects, classical conditioning: there are many films where the plot hinges around the existence of some unrealistic medicine.
