11) RoboCop (1987)

The first public appearance of RoboCop took around 40 retakes to get it right in terms of emotion and action. Here, the director, Paul Verhoeven, wanted to bring across the movement and the dialogue of RoboCop as a human but in a robotic form. That is why the technical and complicated sequence became further complicated by the mechanical suit limitations, adding to the problems during filming. The repeated efforts led to one of the most memorable scenes in the film that ridiculed corporate control and dehumanization, thus long-lasting in the sci-fi genre.
