I'm pretty sure most of the time it's the actual actors. When they have to come in and do ADR (Automated Dialog Recording) to replace lines they may not have gotten on set sometimes they will do the TV edit version. I remember a few years ago one actress was doing an interview where she was laughing at the lines they had her say. In the actual film she yelled "MY FUCKING NECK!" and in the edited version she yelled, "My fragile neck!"

I have the Criterion Version DVD that has the original scenes that were cut to get the movie an R rating instead of an X rating for violence. Murphys Death scene is way more vivid and gruesome not to mention the board room scene where ED-209 Sprays poor Kenny for like a full two minutes longer than the theatrical version. I flippin love Robocop!

It would have sucked if he had clicked on one of those HentaiSama's links during work.

Robocable of course. Prime Directives was really bad but the fights were awesome. The part where Murphy invades OCP and fights the lasers was originally supposed to be a fight with two ED 209s would have been epic. I still bought the box set regardless lol.

Bingo. His color scheme made his armor look cooler some how despite being identical to Murphy. Maybe that is why they are using the scheme with the new robo in the remake.

I used to have an edited for TV version of Robocop on tape that had "once I even called him..a lot worse!" LOL

This was the version I remember seeing on TV too, when it didn't say that in the video but "....AIRHEAD", I started to wonder if my memory was faulty. Guess "AIRHEAD" was still too offensive?

From what I remember, "Once I even called him..a lot worse!" came first. It was later replace with "Once I even called him..an airhead!". I still wonder why they felt the need to change it. The original edit sounded more believable.

I've never even heard of Robocable. Which "Prime Directive" should I watch?

This is still my fave TV edit:

thank you for posting that. I watch it regularly, and to date that and the grocery store commercial right after is one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

As a side note here is my copy of Prime directives all in all pretty rad I had to import it from England. The US versions are sold individually and don't have the awesome disc art that makes up Robocop.
