I was apdding my posts :)
I have always loved robocop, and the criterion version has some added scenes. Ok, well, only two, but they were enough that it skidded by with "only" an R rating.
When Kinney (i think) gets shot up by ed 209, there is a shitload more blood, completely gratuitous. And Murphy's death is quite drawn out. you get to see him stimble around with a missing hand and blood squirting out, and quite a bit more when they are gunninfg him down. the first shotgun blast sends whats left of his arm flying off like bat after a home run, and he has this god-awful look of horror and shock on his face.
definately the best acting peter weller ever did.
