Robocop| Art Imitating Life| A Social Commentary

Geez, video essays take a heck of a lot of time to prepare, this one took almost a month.
This is my first experience with analysis-type videos so please be gentle!!
This week, I dive into the social contexts of both the 1987 RoboCop and the 2014 remake!
Hope you enjoy!
