Many might say that Robocop 2 wasn't as good as the first (and I agree) but you have to admit it was a good sequel anyway! The third movie was okay (When I was a kid back in '93) but now I think it could've been a better film! The theme to the first movie was fantastic and this theme makes me think of Murphy going through the ups and downs of being a cop! His story of being shot and then turned into a machine to fight crime again really hits me around 0;26-0:48 and 1:17-1:48! ROBOCOP FTW!
hey, at least robocop 2 kept the visceral feel to the violence to detroit, kept peter weller and the the tone and the music still feel very robocop. that whole 'reprogramming' robocop thing was beyond fucking gay and is pretty much what fucked the movie up.
Really strange main theme for this film. Parts of it are good, 0:00 - 0:27 for instance, other parts seem dated and out of place eg. 0:30 - 0:49 like from a Western or something, and the female choir is misguided.
I just saw Robocop 1 & 2 back to back (I think I've seen Robocop 3 only once in my life... and that's enough). And even though part II lacks the 'humanity' seen in Murphy towards the end of the first film, this movie has not only this amazing score, but also the main robot is just one of the scariest things I've seen in cinema. To this day still gives me chills. That stop motion technique adds something special to the horror!
Rosenman seems to repeat similar themes in every movie with just little modifications. Bakshi's The Lord of the Rings (1978), Star Trek IV, and now this. Not that it's bad music; on the contrary.
I remember playing this song over again and again at the credits when I was a kid. Very inspiring song and I have been a fan of orchestral music ever since.
Robocop 2 was amazing I dont give a fuck what anybody thinks way more violent an offensive than the first one and Robocop 3 is just Lame Ass Pussy Bullshit ya lets make Robocop a kid friendly movie. FUCK THAT SHIT
this soundtrack really wasnt bad, it just didnt fit the RoboCop character-he was very complex and dark and the score didnt really reflect that-its very over-the-top heroic which isnt bad but not Poledouris
it may be just me but doesn't this music with the trumpets are patterned sounds like something that Jerry Goldsmith [Papillion, First Blood, Rambo: First Blood Part II, Rambo III, Total Recall, etc] orchestrated?
come to think of it, it sounds similar somewhat to "The Game" on Rambo II soundtrack where Rambo engages in a Ancient Afghan Sports Game and "Fight Night" where Rambo makes a attempt to save Colonel Troutman.....
The theme from the first one was more direct to the newness of such a movie. This version deals more with personal issues, as well as sticking to the metallic-type futuristic theme. He never stopped remembering, and in Robocop2, they prodded his mind, and made him something else, and Murphy still had enough sense to fry that program, so this theme definitely speaks to the evolution of this man trapped in this cold monolith. Peter Weller will forever be Robocop.
@Jimpsterz Robocop 2 was trash, but was a hair better than Robocop 3. However, the decision to not rehire Basil Poledouris to do the soundtrack to Robocop 2 was a huge error. Rosenman was ok, but this tune is more jazzy. I thought the soundtrack was garbage. But Rosenman is still a pretty good musical conductor.
@Graphic36 I like to think of RoboCop 3 in the same way as Superman 3 and other movies like it. Movies that had some really great moments and events that really stand out but can't sustain the movie as a whole. Yes the movie is bad; but like Street Fighter, Superman 3, Masters of the Universe, etc., it's bad in an awesome way.
Darren Aronovsky is a fuck guy he want the tile role mel ibson, leonado di caprio, vin diesel....what, ye thats truth but we must wait a few months and we will see.
I don't think this is as good as the theme from the original Robocop ... but coming in second to that theme is no shame at all. Leonard Rosenman did great work; I don't think any movie composer active today is his equal.
you know what if they remake Robocop i hope they keep the theme song from the first RoboCop movie and impro on it yea you are right whats with the Chorus? the first one is way better
I loved Basil's score to the first one, but I think this one would've topped the first if it had incorporated both main themes instead of just this one. To me, the chord progressions used in this theme really scream Urban crime, so this would've been a great "Detroit" theme to contrast with Basil's "Robocop" theme used in the first. The two combined would've really worked, IMO.
does anyone know the name of the song that is played in the background of the arcade scene when robo wants to find out where cane is and makes the crooked cop tell him?

Robocop 1 is a classic, Robocop 2 was OK but not great, Robocop 3 was total dog shit.
Anyway Robocop 2 is elevated quite a bit by the excellent score (though Poledouris' Robocop 1 score is better).
