Get the Murphy Field mug.A (mostly eradicated) disease where an adult-oriented film/franchise is heavily reworked for children, or at least for a family-friendly audience due to its toyetic potential. Murphy's Syndrome was most prevalent from the 70s to the 90s, with specific examples including Rambo, The Toxic Avenger, The Mask, and Alien. It's a syndrome because nobody fucking knows why some stuffed shirts thought such a practice would be a good idea.
The name derives from the real name of RoboCop, Alex Murphy, one of the most well-known victims of the disease, having two shitty cartoons, a bland live-action show that only lasted one season, and two PG-13 rated films that nobody likes.
