I just finished watching Robocop for the first time in almost a year. What a bad ass movie. It just has so much character. Total Recall did too. It's a damn shame these remakes keep pissing on Verhoeven's work. We'll be getting a soulless remake of Starship Troopers in another 10 years. Mark my words. After that, we'll get a remake of Basic Instinct in which Catherine Tramell doesn't cross her legs. Or if she does, she'll be wearing bloomers.

In the commentary it clearly states that it was Dredd and ROM. From Wiki "The character of RoboCop itself was inspired by British comic book hero Judge Dredd[3] as well as the Marvel Comics superhero Rom."

Here's a pic of one of the first Robo sculpts. Again from the DVD commentary.

I guess that means his workplace didn't buy into the program?:confused
I could go with this but in the commentary the writer clearly states it was Iron Man - even saying the criminal lifting the Iron Man comic was intentional. I don't even think Dredd had a rebirth in his comic. And as I have taught you all before they are both prime examples of "Over the Rainbow".
Murphy dies after he's all shot up and simply dreams the rest on his way to terminal dreamland. Even so far as precious memories becoming harder to access as death takes over.
Tony dies in the desert - dreams up the rest. Sequels do not factor.
Ferris Bueller does not exist - it's Cameron's fantasy alter ego the way he wishes he could be. -- Well, wait -- different structure.
And I love Tobar -- the character that used to smoke magic cigarettes to get his powers.

Baby Kal El never made it to Earth alive. His ship blew up mid-launch, and the whole Superman mythos is just Jor El's fantasy as he lays dying during Krypton's destruction.
Peter Parker never became Spiderman. The whole Spiderman mythos is Peter's fantasy as he dies from the spider's venom.
Bruce Banner died from radiation. Hulk was his dying fantasy.
Steve Rogers ODed on the super soldier serum.
Thor was a drunkard in old Scandinavia. His skull was crushed with a hammer; but he saw it come down in slow motion, and dreamed up the whole Thor saga.
Hal Jordan was a convict serving a life sentence when a drug called Green Lantern's Light swept through the prison. Hal ODed on it, and dreamed up a super hero saga during his final seizure.
Batman really happened though. Don't **** with Batman.
He died with his parents after seeing Zorro - pufft. Condorman however did happen.

Nu Trek Kirk never got his hands on the Enterprise. He slipped into a coma after his beat down in the bar and dreampt the whole thing. Pike went on the Captian the ship for 11 more years, finally being promoted to Admiral. Spock took over command as Captain at that time and on a training visit to Starfleet command ran into a doctor named McCoy who had a weird hobby of injecting things into dead tribbles.
Spock told him that it was illogical to continue to waste time on dead tribbles when there was a perfectly good comatose cadet who had been on life support for 15 years taxing the system. Turning the useless husk known as Kirk over to the doctor, McCoy dissected his organs for their vitamin B and pulped the rest of his body to use as fertilizer for the violets at the botanical gardens at Starfleet HQ!

That's hilarious and depressing.
Never before has Over The Rainbow been used for such good NakedMolerat.

Sure - it works on anything structured for a character who enters fantastical situation. It doesn't always have to be a near death experience -
Marty went to sleep and never woke up when Doc called - he dreamt the who time travel adventure - then woke up in the exact same clothes and position at the end of the film.
