Before he was a soldier for our hearts in movies, he was a solider for our nation, as a helicopter pilot in the Army, often flying LBJ.

His first notable appearance in film was The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension where he stole our hearts as the multi-talented Dr. Buckaroo Banzai, a physicist, neurosurgeon, Samurai, rock musician, Jet Car driver, and comic book hero.

His most notable performance in the visual arts was as brash cop Alex Murphy, am allegory to Christ. in a city of filth and decay he is gunned down tragically only to rise again as the cities savior: Robocop.

Whether it's battling aliens across space in a ludricous comic themed movie, or maintaining his independence despite an evil corporations best efforts to consumerize a city, Peter Weller is a man to respect, to fear, and more importantly to love.

Worst actor ever.
That's all I need to say.

:lol: All I could think about was MURPHY.
I had so many Robocop toys. I had 3 versions of him, one of them had one shield that was battle damaged and he other was regular, I had and still have his partner, and I also had the car which me and my brother through down the stairs a couple hundred times to see how much we could break it.
Also, in like second grade, my mom gave me and my bro some money to buy our school uniforms. My dad took us to Toys r Us and we bought all those RoboCop toys. When we got home, my mom was screaming at us like crazy.
Sorry to go off on a tangent there.

I've seen one of the Robocop movies, and I'd watch the others if I could catch them on television. Probably the weirdest thing I'd ever heard of Robocop doing was shitting a muffin for a kid. Haven't seen it, but that came to mind when I saw this thread.

I'm pretty sure Robocop is worth going out to buy
You can get all 3 for like ten bucks ar Walmart
