The key difference here was that Murphy was a huge investment intended to single handedly take on an army of armed criminals, while the Terminator, despite it’s reputation, was a mass produced assassin meant for infiltration and stealth. One was designed to be unique, the other was made to be expendable
My only complaint is that in the first half of the battle, The Terminator had Murphy on the ground and repeatedly made his head bounce on the asphalt. Considering the fact that Murphy doesn't even have a skull, I don't see how Murphy was able to continue fighting when at the very least he would have had a concussion and at worst he would have had extreme brain damage. Also, there were plenty of times that a stray bullet could have made it's way through Murhpy's mouth hole, and I doubt he would survive a wound to his body that really isn't much of a body.
@@juanrramos88 yeah but even so that doesn't prevent him from receiving a concussion. There is possibly something in the armor that can dampen blows, but this is terminator that we're talking about, the robot ain't pulling it's punches.
*few years later in MK 11* Robocop: haven't we done this before? Terminator: I have no record of the previous encounter Robocop: we have met I'm sure of it
Criminal: "Don't try and follow me!!!" Robocop: "We won't" Criminal: "The babys coming with me!!!" Robocop: "No" I love how calm and sarcastic Robocop was
Criminal: "I'll kill it! I swear I'll kill it!" Robocop: "We can't have that!" (Something about that last line delivery. Maybe the bit of bored sarcastic humor. Gets me every time)
Yeah, but I always figured if RoboDic showed up I'd just drop my weapon and briskly walk away - cops aren't suppost to shoot unarmed civilians in the back
@@FaxChecker-rq5yv You mean RoboDoc? I mean it is a 2017 documentary of the making of 1987 RoboCop. That said, RoboCop will still come for you if you are a criminal. Like what Thomas King experienced in the 2014 movie, a weaponless criminal who ran away. RoboCop will not harm you. Tase you maybe but not life threatening. Dead or Alive, you are going with him.
@@赤ゲキ Huh? No...I said why I meant because meant what I said 🤷 "If RoboCop showed up, I would just drop my weapon, and briskly walk away." The logic being Robo's slow as molasses, and cops aren't supposed to shoot unarmed people in the back. Capiche?
Looking at the battle again, makes me notice that Robo Cop’s weaponry is also more versatile while Terminator’s seems more heavy weapons and close ranged weaponry
one question is robocops battery pack lithium ion? cause if it is good thing it's never taken a hit or he'd self destruct from the impending fire from the battery going up
Terminator is a robot assassin only limited to using weapons from what ever time period he is in! While Robocop was was custom built to be a walking tank to deal with criminals with military grade future weapons!
@@noahcharles2571 except he wasnt because in the first movie, he was almost completely destroyed by SWAT firing regular weapons at him. This fight made it seem like he was impervious to ballistic damage when in the actual media, rifle rounds are more than capable of outright killing him if he weathers enough of them.
I think robocop and think about it RoboCop was exploded by like 16 explosions he was even electrocuted terminator was smashed and blown up by a home made pipe bomb
@@LordGROOVYSilver117 although this is T1 Terminator, later versions were improved to make sure they didn’t suffer the same fate as their predecessors. The one in T3 was the most advanced of its kind in the trilogy, but for some reason they kept going back to T1, no idea why.
By that point, Robocop had already devised a solution to stop that guy and save the baby at the same time: using his targeting system to make the bullet from the Auto-9 bounce off the metal door and hit the thug in the head. All Lewis had to do was grab the baby just after.
They seemed to be dropping so many hints at a Terminator victory. "He's more skilled than a human possibly could be" "Murphy has human weakpoints" "Murphy has a battery life issue" "Murphy is slow as hell" "The Terminator has a plasma gun from the future (that can instantly tear apart any highly durable material)"
again murphy has taken multiple plasma rifle shots at once and hes fine... it took many many people with multiple plasma rifles to cause him serious damage. one rifle will do nothing....
@@protector22222 throughout the original trilogy of RoboCop Murphy’s titanium armor becomes more durable than the previous versions because in the first film (1987) it was barely stopping ED-209’s 20mm cannons along with the SWAT member’s high-penetrative rounds but in the second film he was able to tank multiple direct hits from RoboCain’s arsenal of weapons
@@protector22222 that would imply that the dinky little plasma shots fired at RoboCop are at the same level of terminators space rifle and I will gladly admit defeat if you can prove that they were I'll admit defeat
@Nicole White here's the thing Terminator can't bring that back from the future. "Nothing dead will go," so they shouldn't even have mentioned it because it wouldn't be a factor here regardless of its power (the animation is frankly impossible by the lore of the movies also ive watched every Terminator movie and have never once seen The Terminator be able to store any weapon in his chest) he would only have the weapons he could obtain in the timeline he's in which would be the "dinky plasma" bolts fired at robocop at most which you'd already know if you watched even the first bloody movie
I remember when I was 13~14 when this episode dropped. I remember being so excited like no tomorrow! I remember hurriedly eating my dinner so I could watch this episode uninterrupted. years later this episode to me feels like a walk down memory lane. the nostalgia is so viscerally real. while I'm not as excited watching Death Battle as I was when I was younger. I still enjoy coming back and watching these videos that young me loved. thank you Wiz and Boomstick for the many years of memories and endless entertainment.
@Sebastian Moreno, Rambo (John Rambo) vs. Commando (John Matrix) is the most wanted video I wanted to see uploaded by Death Battle previously known as ScrewAttack.

10 reasons why there should be a RoboCop vs. Terminator movie. 1. They’ve already crossed over in comic books and in a video game. Just not on the big screen which would be a pretty big deal. 2. Both film franchises have gone downhill. A cinematic showdown has potential to revitalize both of them in more ways than one. 3. Not only would it have exciting action, it would have iconic one-liners. “Dead or alive, you’re coming with me,” and “I’ll be back,” to name a few. 4. It could perform well at the box office. A movie about the two greatest cyborgs of the 80’s would interest old and new fans. 5. Hollywood gave us Godzilla vs. King Kong, Freddy vs. Jason, and Alien vs. Predator. Who’s to say they can’t give us RoboCop vs. Terminator? 6. RoboCop Returns will be a sequel to 1987’s RoboCop. It’s the perfect opportunity to merge it with the Terminator universe. 7. It would be a dream match come true. For years, people have been debating as to which machine would win in a fight to the finish. 8. It would be a story that writes itself. Skynet sends a Terminator back in time to old Detroit to terminate OCP’s RoboCop for whatever reason. 9. They can always use CGI to de-age Arnold Schwarzenegger. It’s been done in the last three Terminator flicks, including Dark Fate. 10. They used one of the Terminator themes for one of the RoboCop trailers. Maybe there were plans for a crossover back in the day.
I agree the only thing is the last 2 robocop films sucked and the last 2 terminator films sucked the last to predator films sucked to so they should do a terminator vs robocop vs predator movie and we can prey they don't screw it up.
OMG Girl There’s a theory that Terminator and Predator are set in the same universe. Schwarzenegger was in both franchises and it’s possible that the T-800 was modeled after Dutch. Cyber-Dutch was a character in the Aliens vs. Predator arcade game. His serial number was CDS-170A3, and CDS stands for Cyberdyne Systems. Schwarzenegger was supposed to appear in the Alien vs. Predator movie as a cyborg Dutch but couldn’t due to scheduling conflicts.
If they do make it it cant have arnie it would just be endos and you would have to know robocops backstory so the audience isnt big enough to warrant it
Boomstick's commentary really shines in this one. "That doesn't seem legal, at all." and " goes boom and then there's no more anything" are both perfectly delivered. This is what happens when the script writer and voice actor are really on the same page.
so having come back to this I noticed something with Robocop's fighting and how it differed from the terminator. His consistantly used his pistol in a variety of ways while the terminator kept discarding his weapons once out of ammo or damaged. While I'm not sure it directly impacted the fight their ways of treating their weapons actually can be see in battles even without guns. Part of weapon mastery is being able to see and use your weapon as an extension of yourself much like Robocop did. While the termnator clearly only saw them as tools. Perhaps that too can be down to the fact robocop is still half human and knows the value of that concept.
Terminator made in China lmao it didn’t aim at robocop’s human parts. If for some reason this happened in real life the terminator would’ve won within seconds of the fight starting.
I think terminator would win just because of its plasma rifles remember robocop it has steel and kevlar protecting and I don't think steel and kevlar is gonna resist a blast that is around the suns temperature side note: how did robocop survive the blast his mouth is exposed he would've been burnt to a crisp
The best thing about this fight is that the creators really captured the spirit of both characters in it. It wasn't just a combat contest; the video had soul.
That's because Chad has to change his voice to make Boomstick's voice, he's just adjusted it so it's less murder on his throat. Meanwhile Ben just talks normally and that's why Wiz more or less sounds the same, maybe a bit different now that they have better equipment
my head-cannon's just that sky net would use the Arnie model so that if it came across a malnourished, nearly dead skeleton of a man (as would be common in that type of dystopia) they'd look up and just think"yea there's no way I'm gonna win against Broly" plus being strong would definitely help kill people
1: I'm pretty sure if the terminator had his legs, he could have had enough strength to stop the press. 2: To those who say robocop could survive a pipe bomb, why was he impaled so easily by Boddicker and dismembered by a jack hammer? The instantaneous energy generated by a pipe bomb is greater than both combined. On top of that, the explosion was internal, amplifying the damage much more. 3: The robocop future still took place during the cold war (SDI/MX missiles), so none of the lasers, explosions, etc. could have been as sophicated as the plasma weapons and nukes made by skynet.
Hell, the terminator didn't really need his legs to stop the press, he could have easily raised his arms. Unfortunately, he was too preoccupied with his mission. He also couldn't see it coming, because the technological clutter (by Reese) distracted him.
this really did not make sense because they said that fuel cell is powerful but they said hey was destroy by same kind that robocop was in the bulting blow up and was fine but in T3 he crash a Fucking Plane and also in T1 he blow up in fucking truck only leave his michine from but he was Fucking Fine and Wiz and Broomstick The Terminator also has more Guns in T3 like gun he using on TX into a Wall and other Gun rocket luncher blow tx thought a fucking TombStone So The Terminator Should have Win and also Robocop is fucking slow and you can Fucking heard him and and how the hell that Robocop could use his jetpack the Terninator fucking Destroy it so The Terminator Should Have win or a Draw that was Fucking Bull shit
Ryan Sweeting See what I mean? Robocop's moments of strength and weakness are so inconsistent, it's not even funny. I mean, how does a metal spike and a jack hammer trump a several story fall and explosions? At least the terminator showed some consistency when he got a limp from the truck exploding and got severed from a pipebomb. All the terminator had to do was exploit the bane of robocop, that being spikes and jack hammers.
You have to admit the ending to the fight really felt like something straight out of a movie, I could actually see Robocop defeating a terminator in this fashion.
And that is why Robocop won. Even though he's been defeated a bunch of times, in all three movies, he survived. In contrast the T-800 model in each terminator was always destroyed, one way or the other.
Danny P. That's the thing. Politics are like comedy, especially nowadays, while comedy is somehow professional like politics. The irony. Those kind of jokes will be more frequent js.
Yeah but remember how they said it could even gain emotions despite how it's meant to be a remorseless killing machine? Given all it just got thru, including but not llimted to, it's minigun jammed, being set on fire, loosing it's plasma rifle AND arm, to say nothing of how Murphy would simply NOT die despite everything he's doing, I think at some point he got pissed off. When you're angry, things like keeping track of ammo could not be as high a priority. Even though that did occur to me, I feel I'd be not giving credit where credit is due to also mention TV tropes and the Death Battle page on that site, along with the 'Fridge' section saying just as much and/or it being damaged to a point that it could have been just as that if not something of both. I could be entirely off base though.
I think the fights themselves are more for entertainment. There’s more than one way for a fight to end or begin, so the actual results are decided by the skill analysis and calculation portions of the video.
Rossriders To be fair, that only happens when their learning computer is activated. When sent to the past alone, however, they get switched to Read Only.
@@YunoGasaiMC2012 COUGH COUGH goku vs super man COUGH COUGH rigged numbers for ssj2 transformation COUGH COUGH nerfed him by not even joking x100 COUGH COUGH
Terminator learning to feel isn't _that_ far fetched when you consider the replicants from Blade Runner having limited lifespans specifically to prevent them from becoming too human as well. But even then that timespan's four whole years, meaning it takes them at least that long, making Terminator's a mighty fast learner!
In the director's cut of T2, the Terminator explains this by stating that Skynet activates a kind of "limited learning" mode on their CPU before sending them out on independent missions, because it doesn't want to run the risk of them becoming sentient and going rogue. John wants to enable his full capabilities, and the Terminator walks him and Sarah through how to do it. This makes sense, since Skynet itself became self-aware within an hour of being brought online. Obviously a Terminator has less processing power than a supercomputer network like Skynet, so the process takes longer, but taking that reduced computing power into account, it makes sense that the Terminator could reach that state within the matter of days that T2 takes place.
@@nessdragon His CPU is in a "read only" mode, so all he is capable of doing is following what's already programmed. They took it out, flipped it to read and write and that's when he began learning. Still not capable entirely of showing emotions. Though that is kind of in question after Genysis when he says to "Protect my Sara".
@@snyperwulffgaming9575 It can't be in a full "read only" mode, because we do see the T-800 in the first movie learning things like new phrases. However, its capacity to learn is clearly limited. My guess is that functions that would permit the Terminator to infiltrate more successfully are permitted to read/write, but any functions that could lead to actual sentience and questioning of orders are locked down.
You have to remember, thats just a fake skin wrap. Thats not his actual face or head. The entire head unit is robot. Even his eyes. In Robocop 2, he asks his wife to touch the skin on his face and she recoils saying its cold.
Came back to watch this because I feel like this is one of the best Death Battles for one reason: it captured the spirit of both characters. The Terminator was a ruthless assassin with no morals and one mission, RoboCop a one man army who tried to stop a criminal robbing a store, and the plot twists were great too. The hydrogen fuel cell the end is the one that gets me still. I loved it and hope that more Death Battles can capture the spirit of the characters being contested as well as this one did!
Okay seriously to everyone saying Terminator should of won. Did you even see the end why Wiz and Boomstick said RoboCop won. They said RoboCop withstood several devastating explosions, while a Terminator was destroyed with a homemade pipe bomb. Yes, that is right. A HOMEMADE PIPE BOMB! Not to mention RoboCop resisted a 3,000 PSI hydraulic press, whereas a Terminator was crushed by one in the first film. How the fuck do you expect The Terminator to win now? Do you guys ignore the end or something?
in robocop 3, 1 grenade round pretty much killed him. in terminator salvation the terminator took about 8 and all it done was slow it down. the nuclear cell would have bin put in robocops mouth and held their. they said that robocop survived an explosion that was the same as the terminators cell but that's bull he never survived an explosion that caused a crater.
In the New game, he manages to push a 4.7 ton shipping container with rubble out of the way with ease. At that strength, he can literally just dismantle a terminator with his hands.
Xcave spiderX Although they made some mistakes with Goku's analysis I also enjoyed that fight and I agree with its outcome (if you take into account Superman's strongest incarnations).
In other news, robocop was arrested today after fighting a machine of unknown origin. several people were killed or wounded by glass and other shrapnel during the fight that resulted from when the unknown machine exploded near several buildings. The current charges against robocop range from reckless endangerment to unintentional manslaughter and destruction of private property. Despite his record of drastically lowering crime, some are calling for robocop to be permanently shut down and destroyed.
now that arney is a liquid metal terminator I'd be interested in who would win if they fought again. I'm not sure if robocops weaponry would really do anything against liquid metal *EDIT* terminator freakin said he'd be back
pretty much though robocop is ridiculous as fuck in terms of the damage he can tank. the terminator would still have to wear him down for awhile. the only real potential for challenge would be that weird reprogramming spike that robocop has but I seriously doubt he could reprogram a liquid metal terminator.
curtis brown Honestly I was thinking that too. I want to see what a T-3000 could do, especially John Connor's version. You have that human factor for creativity that Murphy has, and the more or less invincibility that Robocop has also. Plus the skills of both a T-1000 and a T-800, I feel like the T-3000 would be the ultimate challenge for Robocop.
While I can admit that Robocop's cheesier shows have given the impression of him being much more durable than the Terminator, I have to say that he would not win in battle. The first thing I thought was, shoot the face exposed under the visor. With the minigun. There were so many ways the Terminator could have easily won this.
Darren180223 Robocops armor is made of the same thing as the t-800s armor. Robocop uses Titanium alloy coated with kevlar. Terminator uses a coltan-titanium alloy designed to stop extreme heat, as they 'were' prone to melting. Another thing about terminators future war weapons, they are designed to blast through any form of metal, including other terminators, with extreme heat. This is why the rounds are made of plasma, they would have eaten a hole through robocops armor in a hit or two. However they could not be brought back through time travel. Robocop is also prone to having his limbs hacked off, as is shown in robocop 2. I am pretty sure a well targeted joint strike with a shotgun, is sufficient enough to whack off an arm or two, on Robocop. Robocops face is not a weak zone, as well, as stated in director commentary, Robocops face was basically skinned off of his previous body and layered on top of a metal structure. The reasoning is there could have been some form of psychological reaction, despite having a brain completely erased, by not seeing themselves as a full machine. The thermal vision, on robocop, is due to his visor, not his actual vision. If you were to blow his helmet off he would not be able use it, as stated in one of the tv series. This having been said, there is also a comic book line for robocop vs terminator and robocop wins. He is actually skynet, in the the comic book, after he interfaces with a terminal and a virus infects his systems. Go figure. lol
He is right robo cop has an exoskeleton that is 2 times more durable than the terminator and that being the only way they could make his frame so strong is by leaving his brain and also his nerve core which is padded with 10 pounds of cleansed kevlar if it was not padded his brain would take shock immediately causing him to short out on instant
Maybe in future, he is just an ordinary and cheap robot, not a badass, well equiped and constucted and WITH A BRAIN, billonary project robot builded by HUMANS, who are smarter than robots ;)
T800s apparently are "cheaply" mass produced, limited to their programs and are easily hacked. I thought Robocop would lose because the vulnerable human heart and brain, but 99% of Robocop's body is such denser titanium than the T800. When you look at the first Robocop movie the robot arm of Robocop is way thicker and dense than a T800 that has to be thin enough to fit inside a "human" arm. weight for weight Robocop looks to be far more stronger than a T800, though if the T800 punched Robocop in the brain than the battle would be over.
wouldint it be cool if wiz and boomstick did an entire season of just remakes of their old battles? this one would really awesome Edit: I think the winner of this one will still win if there was a remake
Jake Hackney damnit, i made a comment about this months ago and received no likes for it. i am just hurt, vengeance will be mine Jake, one day i shall enact my revenge. oh and just for all those people that never can tell because they're 5, i am being sarcastic, happy now? but in all seriousness i did catch that and commented, im glad im not the only one who saw that.
It happens, I commented on a Freiza vs mewtwo video to point out pokemons type strategy and Everybody wanted to say something back. Still get replies, and that was 2 months ago.
Li-Li Mandragon Even so, Terminator is infinitely more badass, and has more of a personality. RoboCop sounds like he was taught slang by Microsoft Sam.
Well, it's official. Now we can watch the Terminator vs Robocop in a full fledge no holds barred setting in the greatest fighting tournament of all time... MORTAL KOMBAT
being made out of titanium apparently makes you invincible in Screwattack's world. .50 cal minigun rounds firing at thousands of RPM? No problem. Getting punched in the face by a futuristic metal death machine who can punch baddies through several walls? No problem. Mini-nukes exploding in your face? No problem. Titanium is Jesus.
Do I have to remind you guys that Terminators are actually destroyed by normal humans in the future? Sure, the "Arnold" Terinator is stronger than the average, but he's still one of them. Robocop is unique, with the best of the best of technology and metal. And every time is shown his resistance is unmatched. But....of course people will bitch because "muh nostalgia". And Im even seeing some comments saying "Why doesn't Skynet send more Termiantors to defeat RoboCop".....BECAUSE THAT WILL FUCKING KILL THE PURPOSE OF THE FIGHT DAMMIT!!!
Whereas I normally sit on the "Knowledge and skill pays the bill" side of the fence, Terminator was blown up by an IED. Robocop is just stronger. I'm kind of skeptical though. They didn't take into account that Terminator would know all about Robocop seeing as he would be a "hazard" in that time period for Terminator therefore surely Skynet would have given Terminator a plan to kill him or something.
Matthew Geiberras he would have made an excellent Resistance fighter... But did he destroy the chip along with the terminator skull? If not, the fight isn't over
I actually prefer Robocop over the terminator, but I honestly do not believe he would have won. At the beginning the Terminator clearly labelled the flesh on Robocop as a weak spot, and then completely failed to act upon it. His speed alone gave him a huge advantage, and Robocop being able to react quick enough in the close of up fight is next to none. Having caught a bullet mid-air though, it is debatable on whether Robo is even slow at all. That being said, Robocop should have hit every shot with the rifle while on his jetpack. If he can shoot bullets out of mid air, I'm sure he can compensate for the movement. All things considered, I still believe that Robo should have lost.
The flesh on Robocop is the same as the Terminator's flesh; just there for blending in. I do believe that Robocop won this though just because of the fact that he was human and relied on different strategies to approach the Terminator. The Terminator could have easily won if Robocop was just a straight up machine because Skynet has data on all other machines. Also, the whole reason why the Terminator(s) were sent back in time to begin with was because they were LOSING the war against humans.
+JonathanToolonie YEAH, ALEX MURPHY'S LAW; IF ANYTHING BAD CAN HAPPEN, IT WILL HAPPEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ESPECIALLY TO CRIMINALS THAT DARE TO OPPOSE ALEX MURPHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the Terminator should win... Murphy is using outdated software and technology while the Termimator is running on fucking hydrogen and made out of coltan! Murphy is just made from titanium
the terminater would should have won murphy was using a flamethrower witch should have melted robocops arm with the heat plus titanium is extremly flameble
Johanni Martinez Bloody 6 year old... COME BACK WHEN YOU KNOW HOWTO SPELL AND DO PROPER GRAMMAR! So yes, I ain't listening to someone who just happens to be 6 YEARS OLD. But, titanium might be flammable but, it's not gonna melt.
