and by him they mean the allmighty god of money
Ehh, I do love Robocop, but a robot cop is only so appealing.
But a KARATE cop? Now we're talking. Not only does he know karate, he's the only cop still alive in an entire city full of evil *********. This movie deserves a remake.

I remember reading about how when the Strauss brothers got the R rating for AVP-R it was going to be amazing and back to what Predator should be, that didn't exactly work out now did it? Violent doesn't guarantee god, get a good writter please, thats half the battle
They should bring in Frank Miller to write it as series reboot in the form of a sequel where the original Robo's out of commission or something and they need to make a new one. It isn't really a reboot and it isn't really a sequel but something in between. No clue how they'd do it without sucking but can't be any worse than what they have planned now.

Read the thing about the eyes and right then realized how badly they're going to miss on this thing. The...whole.....POINT of Robocop (besides the social critisim and satire of a media-frantic, corporate world) is Murphy's arc from likeable family man and good cop, to machine, and then finding his humanity again. Making the 'robo' part more human and relatable says they have no idea what this story is about. I also particularly liked the comment about how the original was cool, but THIS one is going to be a real actors' piece. Go **** yourself, Peter Weller, apparently.

...cough...The Spirit...cough....Dark Knight Strikes Again....coughcough....Holy Terror....All Star Batman and Robin the Boy Wonder...coughitycoughcough. Frank Miller is an insane, bigotted, egotistical hack with one piece of greatness under his belt.

Thanks for saying what I was just thinking. Now I don't have to.
Zetumer is a talented writer and Jose Padhila is a tremendously talented director. We'll all be fine.

will James Woods be in this one?
Still not there, I think this guy already made the blockbuster that needed to be made:

I really don't understand why Hollywood has to reboot every franchise. I know there is the argument of re-introducing it to a newer generation but why not focus their efforts on new ideas?

From what Ive been told the Aronofsky RoboCop was still Peter Weller Robocop just 25 years after the first film. He is painfully obsolete, forgotten and fending for himself living in a closet. He is still a hero doing right by the law in a new Detroit modern world but looked down upon by everyone including the cops. The RoboCop project had been cancelled long ago....

It's simply because people pay to see their long time hero's return to the big screen.
If you make it, they will come.
Yes, yes... I'll be there to pay my money too just to see how different it is :lol

okay i saw José Padilha's Elite Squad and have to disagree. While it was extremely well acted, had competent crowd battle scenes etc... the action was shot with that frenetic epileptic 'shakey-cam' style. I'm hoping that it was a budget constraint or conscious decision to go 'documentary style' that prevented him from using a steadi-camhttp://www.imdb.com/name/nm0655683/ and not a lack of ability to shoot choreographed close quartered scenes.
