=== The films: ===
* [[Actor Allusion]]: Inverted in the second movie - Belinda Bauer stars as psychologist Dr. Faxx, and later went on to become a qualified psychologist herself.
* [[Awesome, Dear Boy]]: Part of the reason why Paul Verhoeven did the first film. He initially rejected the opportunity to direct it when he read the script and thought it was silly and stupid. He changed his mind when his wife convinced him that there were more layers to the story than he initially thought, and because the writers pointed out the amount of [[Gorn]] there was, to which he responded "Well, I've never seen the hero [[Fingore|get his hand blown off]]!"
* [[Fake American]]: Dr. Faxx in the second movie is played by Australian Belinda Bauer. See also [[Ooh, Me Accent's Slipping]].
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]
** What's Dr. Romano from [[ER]] doing working as a street thug in future Detroit? {{spoiler|Getting splattered after a toxic waste bath, that's what!}}
** Clarence Boddicker is [[That '70s Show|Red Forman]] and his gang includes the aforementioned ''ER'' doctor and [[Reaper|The Devil]].
** Attentive fans of 80s comic books will also notice [[ROM Spaceknight|ROM]].
** RoboCop himself in the first two films is both [[Buckaroo Banzai]] and [[24|Christopher Henderson]]. In the third film, he's [[Thinner|Billy Halleck]]/[[Generation Kill|James Mattis]].
