Ditto!! I always have a special fondness for the original Robocop, it was one of the early sci-fi action flicks that I saw & grew up watching plenty of times back in our 80s & 90s VHS days. I still love everything about it...a raw & violent vision of the future, the corrupt-corporate influence over a chaotic society & even the design, outlook & characteristic of RC as a part man & part machine and last but not the least...the fall & rise of Alex Murphy; an awesome & emotionally moving comic book-vigilante sort of crime fighting & revenge tale!
If I ever make a personal all time non-horror Top 100 movie list...the original Robocop will definitely have a place on that list.
