Looks awful. At least they're not copying the original story but it looks weak. Perversely, Murphy's death scene was one of the highlights of the original. Looks like a car bomb here which is weak
What are they thinking, that's like re-making Citizen Kane, sacrilege.
He knows his family as Robo. WTF?
Looks bloody awful.
I see a lot of big names though.
Also far too much CGI.
Nooooooooooooooooooo!
As long as it's still got the toxic waste death in it...
What are they thinking, that's like re-making Citizen Kane, sacrilege.
Agreed. The original is a stone cold classic that should have been left alone.
Don't remake it, just re release the original.
Why is the trailer tagged at HQ when it is only 360P ???
That looks utter bobbins!!! Looks like whoever remade it spectacularly missed the point of the original. How unlike Hollywood 🙄
Why is the trailer tagged at HQ when it is only 360P ???
Yeah, that's real travesty here...
The ED 209 scene is a classic !
No Clarence Boddicker, no care.
"Bitches. Leave."
decades later I can still reel off the script verbatim.
"can you fly bobby"
"you see I got this problem, cops don't like me.... so I don't like cops'
"Hey clarence a new toy? can I play?" "I LIKE IT" lol
love that film. Go Robo!
"Just give me my ****ing phone call"
Saw a trailer for [url= http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0790736/ ]R I P D[/url]
Looks like a better [s]men in black[/s] cop movie than that remake is going to be.
The guy who met the untimely death once the bitches had left is in this one too.
His name escapes me..
The remakes is meant to be more about coping with becoming robo, a bit like robocop 2..
His name escapes me..
Bob Morton.
"Hey Louis, come here when you've finished ****ing around with your suspect."
Why is the trailer tagged at HQ when it is only 360P ???
Because it's high quality not High Definition.
HTH

Exactly just no need.
Well they've already ****ed up Total Recall so why not this too? Might as well do Short Circuit, Top Gun, Terminator and Under Siege while they're at it.
The ITV dubbed version without the naughty words has entered into folklore.
"Ladies, leave"
"once I even called him airhead"
Remaking it is senseless, haven't they got any new ideas? Plus as someone said above, they'll just miss the point. Lucky you can buy the original on DVD for roughly a dollar...
Man that should be ace with a cast including :
Gary Oldman
Michael Keaton (yes I like him)
Samuel L. Jackson
it even has Miguel Ferrer in it!
but what a rubbish trailer...
"Are you a college boy? Bet you think you're pretty smart, huh? Think you can outsmart a bullet"
There will be nothing in this remake to match the original. Nothing.
I hope they leave Mary Popins and Sound of Music alone
Great, another pointless Hollywood reboot. Robocop needed reimagining in the same way that Stevie Wonder needs a new set of bifocals.
Because it's high quality not High Definition.
so why is it only 360P, that's not high quality - to most folk anyway.
Now that does look a lot more fun...
I certainly wouldn't buy that for a dollar

haha! great minds Kato.

The Dude rarely disappoints 🙂
RIPD looks a look like Men in Black.

That's exactly what it is or at least to those who know, not sure what the majority think.
R.I.P.D looks great fun.
Jesus, that looks terrible. Could be some interesting stuff about "illusion of free will", but the original was totally different in tone and should have been left alone.
HOWEVER, it gives me the opportunity to post the best youtube video ever.
Murphy spins a handgun on the bonnet of his car, he gets a call at random about Clarence Boddickaaar 😀
I saw the trailer ^ and immediately I thought of the movie 'i robot' (same CGI/company behind it?).
I don't like it. Robocop is an insanely dated and brilliant film.
Dredd should have been remade, robocop shouldn't.
I'll buy that for a dollar!
Dredd with Stallone should never be made.
Movie perfection.
The thing is they've approached it from the opposite angle. Whereby in the original it was a machine struggling with his own illusion of (still) being human in this tosh it's a bloke who's had some machine bits bolted to him. Far less interesting dynamic in my opinion.
They saved the arm... they were specifically told not to save the arm...
'Lose the arm'
Logans Run remake still hasn't got off the ground..
Looked alright to me, as far as crappy turn off the brain action films go.
You can still see the other one. This is a different one. They haven't copied over the old one.
I do wonder whether Hollywood has run out of ideas though, what with the amount of re-makes/re-hashes over the last 5yrs or so.
Robocop looks like a Cylon 🙁
R.I.P.D is fun. Not great, but fun.
It does have Mary Louise Parker in it so automatically gets +1,000,000 bonus points
What I loved about Robocop is the 'loss'. His old home/family gone.

Absolutely. It's a deeply unsettling film and the black humour, whilst funny, still manages to disturb.
