Back in the day, screenwriters would use a character in their scripts that were written
specifically for delivering exposition like a military dude, scientist, judge and
or news reporters. It rarely works nowadays because the audience could see the undercover
exposition coming from a mile away. When a writer uses a news footage device
once, I’ll let it go out of respect for Ghostbusters, but I'll get Bruce Bannerish
when they wear it out like in Chappie when they
had 4 separate news scenes or in Robocop where they had 3.
Anyways, there’s some illegal activity afoot and robot cops arrive to the scene to
save the day, but one of the side characters bazookas the mechanical
cops. The bazooka control alt deletes most of Chappie’s torso
while Robocop gets up and he’s all like ha ha ha, that tickled.
The film takes place in a post apocalyptic city under siege
where metallic cops vs. robbers in a never-ending war. One city
is a fictional version of Johannesburg, South Africa and I’m being told the other
is a realistic depiction of present day Detroit. This is the same type of apocolypse that MJ
warned us about. The kind where they’re out to get you better
leave while you can, the kind where you don’t wanna be a boy you wanna be a man.
So every man gets a gun, but Deon pays for his and they steal their guns over here. Side
note, OMGod! how in the Hades do you get robbed at a gun
store when you’re supposed to have guns and bullets.
To summarize our villain, the Bad guy’s this dude with a unique hairstyle where he
asked the barber to leave a little hair in the back, difference is over here,
dude also requested the barber take a lot off the top. You think the gangsters in the
movie have the upper hand on the policeman because they have snitches working on the
inside, but the gangsters over here have a reliable source, and
the gangsters over there put their trust in a crack head. Cut to a scene where a quote
unquote mark new and improved mechanical robot cop presentation is taking place.
Both projects are denied, but for different reasons. In Robocop 2, it’s because it keeps
falling apart and in Chappie, it’s because no one trusts the
creator Vincent, since he looks likes he volunteers for a living.
Moving along, guys I want stronger roles in Hollywood for women more than the next woman,
but I almost think the movie would’ve worked better if they took this stupid lady out of
the it altogether. She’s like Florida people stupid. In Chappie,
you have a hard time believing that someone with her judgement would ever get promoted
enough times to be in charge, in Robocop 2, you totally buy it because you
catch her in the middle of sleeping her way to the top.
Later on we find out that the bad guys receive their mail at the same abandoned facility.
No trespassers allowed, but if you do decide to break and enter,
you probably get a couple bullets to your physique in this movie. And In this one, more
than likely, they’ll just challenge you to a paintball duel.
Don’t get me wrong, Robocop has Nick Jr weapons sometimes too, but for kids, not..adults.
As we look around the bad boy HQ, you kind of like what they’ve done with place, decoration
wise. In Chappie, it’s obvious all their stuff is stolen.
I never judge a book by it’s cover, before I saw this movie, I mean, now, it’s seems
perfectly okay to do so. Over here, you could tell they paid for their stuff because Cain's
lord and savior is Jesus Christ so thou shalt not steal
and the whole religion aside, if we’re talking about who’s the most ruthless villain,
it’s Cain by a couple of centimeters. There’s this guy that double crosses him and Cain
schedules his open heart surgery he never asked for. Someone double crosses
Ninja too, and you see an example of how forgiving he is when he picks up the phone for him on
the first ring in the very next scene. I’ve always been more of a hug life than
thug life guy myself, so I see where they’re coming from, you could really get hurt in
these streets. Exhibit A, the robot’s arm gets sawed off,
then they assemble a team of advanced scientists and researchers to make Robocop better than
before, and they go to Walmart and get some duck tape for Chappie.
Following their reprogramming, something happens and Chappie’s feminine side goes MIA, and
just the opposite happens to Murphy as he shows different instances on he’s too polite
to get the job done. They're both the same in the fact that Chappie and Murphy make a
conscious effort not to shoot anyone. Chappie uses on Ninja turtle weapons as an
alternative, but Murphy finds a way to use his firearm without anyone getting hurt. Everybody’s
got a little bit of thug in ‘em so they both get tattoos.
One does it for cool points, the other has it done to him as a victim of a hate crime.
Later on, Chappie starts helping the criminals grand theft auto some cars.
Robocop does it too, but 2 things, one, it’s a bike and two, when he did it, the driver
totally deserved it. After this the cops are strike because of A.
because their direct deposits keep getting funnier every week or B.
because they’re all infected with malware. so now would be a perfect time to commit felonies
or higher. After that, Warning, the following contains footage that some of our viewers
may find disturbing. Okay so there’s a part where this cop gets
hurt in the line of duty and it’s semi funny, but put yourself in his shoes right.
You can’t really trust robots because it was a robot that gave your body a piercing
in the first place and You can’t really a trust a human because when one of them has
a chance to shoot the dude who’s shooting you, they hesitate for like a good
11 seconds to give the criminal a chance to finish the job. You’re screwed no matter
who you make friends with then. Because of all the city violence, the lady approves the
robot from the beginning that had problems passing inspection to go out into the field.
The robot is powered by a literal human brain, in one version, in the literal sense, and
in the other, it’s more figuratively speaking kind of thing. Meanwhile at the business meeting
with the gangsters they’re discussing the origins of the trunk full of money and their
interrupted by the giant robot. It’s all fun and games until this one girl character
dies. The boyfriend in Chappie is super pissed while
the boyfriend in Robocop 2 is super happy because he’s the one that killed her.
We go back to a HQ for a final showdown for the good guy and the villain.
ED-209 has the advantage for a majority of the fight and knocks robocop through a wall.
It’s the other way around for Chappie and he’s the one who knocks.
One minus one of the innocent civilians die here because they were all smart enough to
run in the opposite direction. Everybody here comes in for a closer look for the Robocop
beatdown which explains why the insurance companies refuse to cover the damages for
the voluntary casualties. In the end the, Robocop kills Ed 209 by turning him into a
this is your brain on drugs PSA, and Chappie turns Vincent into
a letter K, but let him lives to see another day.
And those are 24 reasons these movies are different.
So truth or dare, like and share, leave a comment under there,
if you don't, that's not fair, this thing took a week to prepare.
But I'm not a rapper though.
