I'm still not over this trauma 😭😭

Johnny 5 getting hurt still stings.

It was like they had taken the trauma inducing scene of Murphy getting blasted in Robocop and placed it in a kids film. Seeing this happen to Johnny 5 was devastating.

You know, there is still value in this IP. I'm surprised they haven't rebooted it.

Short Circuit 2 is one of the Greatest Movies Ever! One of my all time favorite Movies.

And cue Bonnie Tyler...

Oh man, I remember this vividly! Really disturbed me as a kid, the scene is the epitome of evil because he trusted those guys, thought he had a friendship with them, but was horribly deceived whilst he pleaded for his life. One of the scarring moments of cinema.

Did 80s and 90s kids dirty... had to watch so much traumatic stuff. Killing off Optimus, beating Johnny 5, just every time you turned around a childhood favorite got whacked. No wonder TV shows kill everyone off now a days we grew up on it

No disassemble 😭😭

Works as a great prequel to The Terminator tho!

Absolutely tragic 😥 Johnny 5 is...maybe alive?

That was sad, but not as bad as Artax in the Swamp of Sadness

So you just decide to force this trauma on us as we are casually browsing. You could have started with the end of the movie, which I admit is almost more stressful. But Bonnie Tyler kept us going

As a child it made me angry he was so easily destroyed. I mean even as a 10 yeah old I know we was built for the military. Johnny 5 was softer than my G.I. Joes

Johnny 5 is ALIVE !

We did a podcast episode about this recently!!! I think I’ve still got bloody PTSD 😭😭 Oscar should absolutely definitely have been killed by Johnny Five in the finale!!

And the scene in Batteries Not Included.

What I never understood. Wasn't Johnny 5 supposed to be a military robot? How could they beat him this easily to pieces with just construction tools. Even if he was a proof of concept prototyp. He should have been build more sturdy the that

As a kid I always loved the two movies. I never questioned them. As an adult I always wondered: for the cost it took NOVA robotics to make these things, especially since they were designed for battle, how could they use parts so “fragile “? 😁 Certainly no T800 series.

"A military assault robot"... & a crowbar.

I watched Short Circuit 2 in the theater when I was 10 years old. I cried loudly, yelling, "NO!" The trauma was real. Almost as bad as Optimus Prime... Almost.

How to ruin someones night.

Same… I was so sad

No disassemble number 5

@Blaster2master 🤖🎬👍

Oscar did him dirty

Number 5 was alive

JOHNNY!!!!! Noooooooo

Cried when I was little so hard!

Neither

Honestly thought about this scene earlier today and how it had me in tears when I was 6 years old. So crazy that it's rolled into my feed.

Man, the 80’s just loved maiming/killing your favorite characters: Optimus Prime, Hicks/Newt/Ripley, Robocop…
