there just going to fuck it up like the rest of them.. total recall.. such bullshit.
I'm reminded of when someone posted a few pictures of Anne Hathaway in her Catwoman costume, and a bunch of people talked about how awful TDKR would be. This was long before the movie or even a trailer came out. It was like 1 or 2 pictures of her on set. I thought to myself, "How stupid do you have to be to discount an entire motion picture over what is essentially a single frame?".
TLDR; it's stupid to rush to judgment about a movie from just a picture.

any film gary oldman is in doesn't suck
also, Omar from The Wire/Chalky from Boardwalk Empire will be Murphy's partner.
interesting choice of actor for Alex Murphy though

Yea, there are definitely some POS remakes out there. But it doesn't make sense for me to judge a movie that hasn't come out with even a trailer and say blindly that it'll be horrible, simply because it's a remake.

Sheesh, looks like Robocop's suit was made from Batman's leftover parts.

The Robocop armour is supposed to be in silver. It's like -- how can you ask Superman to not wear blue and red spandex, you know?
I sure hope that black version is just some evil bad guy version showing up in the movie.

nope
'They’re still working on the suit and how it’s going to look, but the visor is going to be see-through. You’re going to see his eyes.
'There’s not going to be any twitchy robot, our vision of how a robot is going to be in 2046, it’s going to be a very human skin, it’s gonna look very human

Man, I remember watching the original way back when.
My parents didn't want me watching it, so when they were out one day, I popped the VHS tape in and started watching it.
The part where he gets blown to shit by 'Red Forman' and his gang... that fucked me up. It was my first real taste of rated R violence!
I'll hold out hope. Out of all the remakes they're doing, this is one franchise that really could use it, even though the originals are classics.

Trailer looks decent, the whole 'free will' thing adds an interesting element to it.
In motion the black suit looks better than on pictures. I still prefer the silver, though.

I like that they kept the silver in the beginning though.
After seeing the black in motion, I quite like it, and it's a nice change-up.
My money's on the black paint stripping off during battle :p

With a PG-13 rating, I don't have much hope for the new one. What made Robocop awesome was the violence and blood. This film was originally rated 'X', back before MPAA established an NC-17 rating. The director's cut (http://www.movie-censorship.com/report.php?ID=3609994)has a half-minute more of footage that puts the cherry on top of this gore sundae.
Taking an R rated movie down to a mass audience rating changes the movie drastically. PG-13 is going to kill what we know to be Robocop. To have even a chance to compare, it has to have an R rating.

09-06-2013, 03:10 PM
seems like that's everyone's issue with the new one is because it isn't rated R
I was introduced to the franchise by the Robocop 2 and TV series and didn't get around to watch the original until I was older so it's not an issue to me.
we'll see...Gary Oldman's in it so it can't be terrible :fullofwin:

Despite everything else that you guys have mentioned, the first thing that pops out at me is do we need to have Samuel L Jackson in motherfuckin' everything?
Shit...I just realized we do. As I typed that, I thought, "what would I take him out of?" and the answer is nothing. I'd make that fucker Batman if I could.

Because if you meant out in theatres, it was reviewed a number of times in the movie review thread.

All the good parts of the original, they didn't replicate. The shooting range scene where all the cops look over to see who's blowing up the target sheet, the wasteland detroit had become, prime directives, eating baby food, spinning the gun and holstering....

Nothing will ever compare to the original Robocop film because it was so raw. Nowadays the remakes have way too much cgi and get away from the allure of the originals films.

Was really disappointed as I guess some Latino guy directed it and may have had a budget or something. I could barely watch it after the scene at the Vancouver Convention Center. Just plain old bad ridiculously bad.
A week later the original was on TV and caught an hour of it. Probably spent 15maybe 20 dollars on the video game at sev. Man that was a lot of newspapers delivered back then:( Remember trying to walk like Murphy for a while and Mad magazine at the school library had a pretty good satire. Years later the episode Data from STNG dating some dame gave a good laugh. lol.
