Requested move[edit]

Roboop 2 → RoboCop 2 – proper name. I fat fingered it when trying to move it from Robocop 2 to RoboCop 2, but it doesn't mater since RoboCop 2 already existed. — Pmsyyz 20:21, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Oppose. Someone already moved it back to Robocop 2, and since IMDb seems to think it was originally released with a lowercase 'c', I'm inclined to leave well enough alone. Niteowlneils 21:41, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Support. Would match RoboCop. Philip Baird Shearer 10:40, 10 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

But the first one is at RoboCop and the image of the DVD (?) cover at IMDB clearly shows a capital C. -- Rick Block (talk) 16:33, Jun 26, 2005 (UTC)

IMDB has let editors checking up on the fact then Wikipedia, so I wouldn't take their word on it. --LeoTheLion 1 July 2005 17:32 (UTC)

"but without the razor sharp wit and style that Paul Verhoeven brought to the first film" -- ha! that's like calling bush witty! haha! did verhoeven write this himself? he did, didn't he? poor bugger.

Decision[edit]

Did not need an administrator so I have moved it Philip Baird Shearer 10:43, 10 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The Little Drug Dealer.[edit]

Yeah, well what was the brand of machine gun he assembled to fight off the cops with? It looked like a little a toy with a power cord. [Marball] 24 january 2008 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.214.14.129 (talk) 01:51, 25 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The submachine gun he used was the ARES FMG (folding machine gun), an ingenious Stoner creation. It was designed to look like an old-fashioned portable radio, and there was an antenna attachment to keep up this charade. Chaparral2J (talk) 00:10, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It was actually a UC-M21 (as stated in the article you linked); note the carry handle on top, which the ARES lacks. 12.233.147.42 (talk) 02:26, 8 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

List of 300 Directives and RoboCop 2 Cyborg Seperate Article[edit]

Several of the 300 Directives are shown on screen in one scene. Could this article have a listing of the ones that are readable and is there a source for any of the ones that don't appear? It's kind of like the list from My Name is Earl in that you'd list what you can, even if it's never going to be complete. I may start the list on my own in time, but I'd love it if someone beat me to the punch.

I was also wondering if RoboCop 2 the Cyborg (and not the film) could have it's own article. While I can't say the film was all that good, RoboCop 2 the Cyborg was awesome. It has four upper-body limbs - a battering ram with Gatling gun, a welder, a pincher claw, and an arm with a three fingered hand - a shoulder mounted cannon, an LCD panel "face", a waist that can pivot 360 degrees, appears to stand about 10 ft. tall, contains what has to be an enormous internal cavity for ammunition, and it has a nuclear reactor in its chest. RoboCop 2 the cyborg was the best thing in RoboCop 2 the movie and if ED-209 can have its own article, then surely RoboCop 2 can as well. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.254.112.176 (talk) 01:52, 5 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, silly me! The directives are listed on the IMDB article under trivia. Still, they really should appear in the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.254.112.176 (talk) 02:13, 5 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

RoboCop 2, and it shall come to pass.[edit]

The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.

Private companies taking over city administration; cities defaulting and being 'taken over' by commercial institutions and individuals; public servants in revolt after their pensions rights are anulled; even the Robotisation of military and police is starting to happen in a mental conditioning sort of way, a la: TSA. The amoral kid is now completely believable as a character. Perhaps now he would be piloting drones over Afghanistan. Look at Detroit today !!!!

The drugs cartel bails out the city administration of Detroit and this seems to have a parrallel in the events subsequent to 2008. Max Keiser has suggested that the Brown administration relied on drugs money to save the uk banks from crashing.
