Jay 37,352 Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Director Paul Verhoeven’s original RoboCop (1987) featured one of Basil Poledouris’ most famous themes and beloved scores. Though he wasn’t on board for Irvin Kershner’s 1990 sequel RoboCop 2, Basil did return for the third installment of the hit franchise with director Fred Dekker’s RoboCop 3 in 1993. On the heels of our massive Starship Troopers Deluxe Edition, we are thrilled to present another special release from our dearly-missed friend. It's Megacop vs. Megacop when Detroit's cyborg crime-fighter hits the streets to protect the innocent, this time from corporate greed! Laced with a sardonic sense of humor and packed with action scenes coming at a deliberate clip, RoboCop 3 is a thrilling sci-fi adventure that will have you on the edge of your seat! When the ruthless corporation that runs Motor City begins kicking families out of their homes to clear space for a profitable new real estate project, RoboCop (Robert John Burke, Copland) joins forces with a renegade band of freedom fighters to save them. But RoboCop must face some deadly foes, including a lethally efficient android and a dangerous gang of thugs. RoboCop's latest arsenal of high-tech weaponry only somewhat evens the battlefield as this one lone superhero takes on the entire army of corporate militia in an all-out war to control Detroit!

Naïve Old Fart 9,516 Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 + 1. It's not as effective as RoboCop, but its much better than Rosenman's what-the-hell-were-they-all-thinking sequel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 It's smaller in scope, but Basil fills it with his usual character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marian Schedenig 8,192 Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 I wasn't even aware there was a third film with a Poledouris score. I've never understood what everyone sees in his original Robocop score, but I'll give this a try. The name Poledouris is worth the risk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wojo 2,453 Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 I just listened to a footwarmer of Robocop 3 at the gym and I'm not impressed. The best parts are cut and pasted from the original score verbatim, same key and key changes. I kept waiting for it to get better. Pass. Glad it's out though.
