I think it looks good as well.

I also like the red visor.

I Have nothing against CGI. I'm just overly cynical at this remake because the first Robocop is one of those movies you don't expect to hold up, but it does (and it does extremely well) and almost feels like a lightning in a bottle case when you look at all the failed sequels and TV spin offs. Add to that all the news of HEAVY involvement by the studios in this film and it's hard to be excited. I'll wait until reviews or word of mouth before I see it, but as of now there's just a feeling a train wreck is slowly piling up.

Someone mentioned it's pg-13 so no more hysterical scenes like "don't touch me MAN!"

I just don't get why they need to have the suit black? Can't they have the silver/blue from Robocop 2?

Well you know there are problems when a movie gets pushed back to another year..

I really hope that fan outcry is in fact the reason for the delay. So far no one likes the suit , comparing it to batman's armor.

Awwww ....

All they need to do is puff out the chest more and they're good to go.

Well at least they aren't giving the whole "We are delaying it another year because we are ADDING 3D!!" excuse.........*cough* cough GI JOE 2!! hint hint. I have the feeling it will be in 3d :( *sigh*

Robocop in 3d? You betcha!

Proves that Hollywood is filled with a bunch of idiots. Why would anyone ever remake Robocop, one of the best sci-fi/action films to ever be released. I'd rather see another sequel, as long as they keep Frank Miller away.

Shit, where's a remake of Robot Jox? Or give us a big-budget, live-action 8 Man movie.

It means that he knows the other person is trying to bullshit him.

I have to agree with the previous poster about how well the original Robocop works.

It doesn't need to be remade especially given the follow up of Robocop 2 and OCP trying to take over the city. The political implications are great.

Also Robocop PG-13?! We saw how well that worked for that steaming pos that is Robocop 3.

UMM....

Just make it a made for TV pilot and let a network cancel it before it airs lol.

It was poking fun at people who brainlessly watch television. The show was about a dirty old man who only ever said the same catch phrase over and over. Almost everyone in the movie is watching it and everytime he spouts "I'd buy that for a dollar!", everyone lost their shit.

Ironically, the new RoboCop looks like the T.J. Lazer character from the original movie.

Sigh, just go ahead and him the jetpack, make this complete.

Who said that they haven't already?

I think the problem is that he looks too high tech. The original suit kinda fit the time it was created in, it looked just clunky enough.This one looks too advanced to me.

So, since Bing is grossly (and hilariously) placed inside movies constantly, what are the chances of new RoboCop searching through criminal records with Bing™, or Prime Directive 4: brought to you by Bing™?

Ughh, as if things weren't going badly enough for this crapfest:
