“ROBOCOP DAY” HONORS
FUTURE OF AMERICAN JUSTICE WITH THE DETROIT TIGERS
To commemorate the Blu-ray and DVD
release of ROBOCOP on June 3, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios (MGM)
and Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment invite the city of Detroit to honor
the iconic crime fighter that helped save the city with “RoboCop Day.” In
conjunction with Imagination Station and the Detroit Police Department,
“RoboCop Day” will kick off with a dedication of the new monument
honoring the legendary hero that will soon have a home in the city. Fans can
also participate in a
meet-and-greet with RoboCop, get an exclusive look at
the motorcycles and props from the movie, see a mock of the statue, and get free
cupcakes courtesy of Just Baked.
RoboCop will then hit the streets on the
way to Comerica Park to throw out the first pitch before the Detroit Tigers take
on the Toronto Blue Jays.

7:00 p.m. - ROBOCOP throws out the first
pitch at Comerica Park
Detroit’s police officers have one of the
toughest jobs in the U.S., and Fox wants a fun and interactive way to honor them
in the heart of the city they protect each day. “RoboCop Day’” aims to
celebrate and give people a chance to meet the day-to-day heroes of Detroit and
its iconic superhero, RoboCop.
In the year 2028, OmniCorp - the world’s
leader in robot technology – sees a golden opportunity to reap billions for
their company. When Alex Murphy (Joel Kinnaman) – a loving husband, father and
good cop doing his best to stem the tide of crime and corruption in Detroit – is
critically injured, OmniCorp grabs their chance to build a part-man, part-robot
police officer. OmniCorp envisions a RoboCop in every city and will stop at
nothing – no matter the cost to Alex – to make sure the program succeeds. But
OmniCorp never counted on one thing: there is still a man fighting inside the
machine.
