The reasons for RoboCops creation, however, are very different from the 1987 film. This time, RoboCops been outsourced. Among the almost medieval poverty of the slums, life is cheap and summary executions are common. The movie also reintroduces the ED-209 in a compelling fashion. Just as they were in the 80s original, Padilhas beefed-up, tank-like robots are both amusing and menacing. Its a line that is both chilling and dripping with dark humour....

Hes really quirky and interesting. The way he can make comedy play is just so brilliant....
Was he that dynamic to work with on set? So its a unique film in that regard. Its my favourite scene in the film, but also my most difficult scene in the film. And I couldnt move. Im in this docking station, so I had to be completely still, and that was difficult. I wasnt allowed to use my body, so that was really difficult.
