Robocop: Director's Cut [Blu-ray]

Product Information

The MPAA especially did not approve of the gory presentation of the prototype ED-209 and Murphys execution. the bloodiest shots were cut out of the first scene and a lot of alternative footage was used in the other - only the DC shows Murphy loosing an arm in the gunfire. On top of that, alternative footage has been used for the car chase at the beginning as well as in the finale. If I had one complaint about this extremely rewarding roster of supplements, it would be that there is nothing on Basil Poledouris’ phenomenal score! A passing mention here and there, perhaps, but this is quite a serious omission as far as I am concerned. You just cannot think of Verhoeven’s film without that theme pounding through your mind. In an eerily accurate portent of coming events, RoboCop is set in a crumbling Detroit of the future Archive commentary by director Paul Verhoeven, executive producer Jon Davison and co-writer Ed Neumeier (originally recorded for the Theatrical Cut and re-edited in 2014 for the Director's Cut) The Great British Baking Show': Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith Sent the Wrong Baker Home during "Party Week"

RoboCop: Edited for Television, a compilation of alternate scenes from two edited-for-television versions, including outtakes newly transferred in HD from recently unearthed 35mm elementsRoboProps, a newly filmed tour of super-fan Julien Dumont’s collection of original props and memorabilia I won’t run down the rest of the extras found on both discs. You can revisit my earlier review to see everything, since Arrow didn’t commission anything new for this set. Suffice it to say that there’s an enormous amount of bonus content found here, with a big batch of new extras that were created for the 2019 release along with a lot of legacy content that was ported over too.

In the near future, where America has become a police state, one hundred boys are selected to enter an annual contest where the winner will be awarded whatever he wants for the rest of his life. The game is simple – maintain a steady walking pace of four miles per hour without stopping. The most interesting inclusion here would probably be the television version of the film, presented here in its entirety. It runs about 95-minutes and cuts out most of the graphic violence, even using alternate angles and shots to hide the violence. The foul language is also dubbed out (badly) and it’s about as effective as you would expect. It’s been sourced from a video and is presented in 1.33:1 (naturally) but it doesn’t look too bad all things considered. Most of the remaining supplements are found on disc one, starting with a new interview with writer Michael Miner. It’s only 17-minutes, but he explains how he Neumeier met, how they came to start writing the script, who was responsible for certain elements, and he recalls the awful process of actually trying to sell the script. Robocop walks past a frosted window then shows a spike extending from his fist to a worried looking man.Chris Evans' Dog Adorably Interrupts His Interview With 'The View': "He Needs To Be The Center Of Attention"

For those of us like myself who fear brisk jogs and other types of exercise, Stephen King’s The Long Walk might be his most terrifying yet. An entire story about maintaining a 4-mile-per-hour walking pace or else. King’s latest adaptation has been in talks for a good while now. Today, Deadline reports that Constantine director, Francis Lawrence is now attached to direct King’s The Long Walk.

There aren’t any further details on King’s The Long Walk adaptation but as soon as we hear more we will be sure to let you know. Q&A with the filmmakers, a panel discussion featuring Verhoeven, Davison, Neumeier, Miner, Allen, star Peter Weller and animator Phil Tippett RoboCop was shot by director of photography Jost Vocano on 35 mm film using Arriflex 35 BL cameras and Zeiss Super Speed lenses, finished photochemically, and presented in the theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1. Arrow Video brings RoboCop to Ultra HD in a Limited Edition release utilizing the same 4K master as before, which itself was sourced from a 4K restoration of the original camera negative performed by MGM in 2013 with the approval of Paul Verhoeven, executive producer Jon Davison, and co-writer/co-producer Ed Neumeier. The Director’s Cut comes from the same master, but the lower generation materials used to complete it are still present as the original negative trims are now considered lost. However, Arrow Video was able to a new 4K scan of these trims for this release. unlike anything anybody had ever seen before, and, really, unlike anything anybody would ever see again.

The disc then closes with 2 trailers for the film, followed by 3 TV spots. Arrow also provides a large collection of images divided into three sections: “Production Photos,” “Behind-the-scenes Photos,” and a collection of “Posters,” the latter also including home video art (though they’re missing Criterion’s).RoboCop: Creating A Legend, Villains of Old Detroit, Special Effects: Then & Now, three archive featurettes from 2007 featuring interviews with cast and crew Arrow Films have created what is undoubtedly the definitive 4K Robocop collection. The movie has never looked better, and likely never will look better than this. Grain is prevalent, and even more noticeable during the TV sequences, but isn’t distracting. The HDR makes Robocop’s armour pop with a violet hue that I’ve never seen before. The Improvements also include the Director’s cut footage, which on previous Blu-ray releases that I’ve owned had clearly not been remastered. Here it is, and while it isn’t a perfect match in quality, it Is closer here than it ever has been before. There is a wealth of archive and new special features, including a very charming interview with Nancy Allen. And the edited-for-television version, which I had actually avoided till now, is hilarious.
