Robocop remake Trailer

[Army of One]

Don't know what to think about this, doesnt look to have the charm or atmosphere of the original

[BIG ACH]

WTF you talking about man, that looks fucking amazing!   I can't wait!!!

Ach, c'mon man.

All these remakes suck.  They all do...

You can't recreate the campiness of the original Robocop.  Those who got the joke enjoyed it.   Those who did not, loved the action.  It was perfect, and should be left alone.

[Master Blaster]

This deserves some extra views.

The scenes with his wife and "family" are fail.

The scenes of him as a killing machine are sadly effective.

Looks hit or miss.

[240 is Back]

Sam jackson looks cool.  Michael keaton, awesome touch.  Great effects.

however...

the elephant in the room is, why bulletproof his entire body except half his face?  I mean, without that exposed area, he doesn't have to hide in a gun battle.  With it?  any lucky headshot brings him down.  Total fail that the bottom half exposed there.  I guess he'll be shot probably 500 times in the movie and nobody will hit that section, of course.  

Look, I can suspend reality long enough to accept robot cop conspiracy premise... but exposed mandible?  I think the the fck not.

Oh I loved The original Robocop!


But man - you have to learn to see things from a new perspective!  Technology is advancing, so we can have newer special effects.  Re-imagining of new stories, new actors! Its cool!  I'm


I mean - look how the new Batman movies turned out!

Thats like the original???  The bottom half of his face was always exposed

Like so:

Like so:

Special effects mean nothing with Robocop.  Who cares about special effects in this element - it was all about the writing, sarcasm and campiness.

[calfzilla]

Can't wait to see it but WILL NOT compare it to the original.

[Skeletor]

The trailer looks ok. Nice to see they included a suit similar to the original one (albeit it they go for the "tactical" version later).

[240 is Back]

yes, i got very mad watching the original with the exposed face.  I thought for years - if they ever do a remake, they'll give him an auto helmet that covers his mouth for gun battles.

preview showed him gun battling with face exposed.  makes a dude like me angry, real angry.

[Papper]

This actually looks pretty true to the original except for the black suit thing. Doesn't seem like it's just about CGI effects either. I'll watch it.

Thing is, not many movies have the charm or atmosphere of the movies of old (80s)

We appreciated movies in a different way when younger.

Nowadays we are just disappointed in Hollywood for not trying something new

[Kwon_2]

With that said, Trailor actually looks good, it looks much better than i expected it to be.

Keaton is perfect, love the new version of ED_209 etc

[hench]

looks better than i expected too but i wonder if it gets an r rating. Anyone know if keaton is a villain?

[Papper]

Yes. And it's a great casting as is going with an unknown for the lead. Instead of picking someone like Ben Asslick.

[Mr Nobody]

I had rather watch Cobra again.

[The_Punisher]

looking good.....the Original still rocks up to this day...I watched it a couple days ago....the cast was Epic.....but, this new one seems to be good....Samuel Jackson always carry his role

Thought about this too.
In the original he gets shot with more bullets than anything in any movie ever made. Estimates put robocop getting shit with somewhere around 800, 000 bullets. And not ONE hits his face. NOT ONE

robocop, the family man   looks about on a par with the total recall remake, which ,whilst it looked all nice and shiny with the admittedly great special effects, was ultimately fairly dull. i bet anything that this remake will be exactly the same especially being totally devoid of any social commentary that helped make the original so great, standing the test of time.



mind you, it does have the delicious abbie cornish  

[hench]

the trouble is with most sci fi films today is the rawness is gone, they look like cartoons because of the overuse of cgi

Lol what a thing to fixate on.

The whole point of the exposed mandible is to remind you of his human origins.  Otherwise he might as well just be 100% robot

but the visor can scroll down at a moment's notice... why not just something to cover the grill in a gun battle?

it makes me angry.  I dont know why.  It's like they're insulting my intelligence when it comes to gunfight probabilities. 

I'll rent it on redbox, of course, it's great background battle while working.  But my blood pressure will be higher than Jay Cutler 2 weeks out as I watch.

Well, that's life in the big city!

this exactly. which appeals greatly with the xbox generation who care more about graphics and it looking 'awesome', over story, plot, substance.
