Robocop Reboot (Pre-release)

"Dead or alive you're coming with me, Hooser!"

It makes sense Robocop would now take place in canada - seeing how great their health care system is - get shot up here and Murphy would be sitting in the waiting room until Robo 3.

Actually, that would explain the flesh hand: "Sorry. Your plan only covers replacement of *one* hand." :lol

Take off, eh! RoboTuque helmet, anyone? :behave

I was checking out updates on this last night. Looks like Robo got some shiny parts. Director Padilla (sp.?) has been quoted saying the film is going to be a classic. Direction, story and good acting could save it, but the suit still leaves a lot to be desired.

Well, that's the problem.. you don't make a classic. The film will, or won't, become a classic.

If you set out with the intention of, as he so humorously puts it, actually making a "guaranteed" classic, you're doomed to failure before you ever begin. So I'll add "director is a pretentious idiot" to my list of reasons NOT to see this.
 
Yeah this director is an idiot looking for fame and glory. What the hell are they teaching kids at film school these days? It used to be you made movies for the love of making movies not being famous and rich. That new robo gun looks like a knockoff Lawgiver. I agree with Peter Weller when asked about this movie when he said "who gives a "crap"?".
 
I was just SURE there would be some new pics... With more robo... Less rubber-cop...

Wow.

And how long have they been working on this turd? Seems forever...
 
The original suit looks more like a Robot than the new one, this just looks like the black suit Idris Elba wears in Pacific Rim. Might go and see it depending on reviews, but I doubt it. Will probably be a 12A rated money maker and not the satirical yet violent movie the original two were.

This looks like a cross between Batman, Tron and like you said, the Pacific Rim suits. Bleh

My biggest concern other then the suit is the story telling. The original Robocop, the death of Murphy was extremely graphic and gruesome with the intent on making a point combined with his struggle coping with what happnened (Like dealing with his wife post accident, etc.). I don't think that this new reboot will do the same, instantly reducing the amount of sympathy for the character's story. I think they're going to make it just "another action" movie with no depth
