English archer Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 I've just seen this trailer for the remake.I don't like what I have seen so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil3728 Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 I like the trailer, waited ages for the remake. Hope it's good, onlt concern is the age rating is its too low and lacking violence it will bomb in the cinema as the original one was very graphic.

liam_italian Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 I was worried that the remake would be really bad but I'm impressed with what I've seen. Although that said the original will always be the best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashman Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 The original was, of course, the best. However, it's good to see the return on ED 209. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archie-fox Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 Looks ok but it's not the original...I watched the first one last night again and it's a dark violent movie...no love story just a shoot em up movie... But lets wait and see... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aris Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 I like the look of it too. Sadly they seem to have given away key parts of the plot in the trailer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyska Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 Hmmm...I think the whole macabre, dark story of the original looks lost. Robocop looks too 'human'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris 1985 Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 The original was a really sharp commentary on corporate America in the 80s as well as a top draw action film. I'm not convinced the remake will deliver in the same way. Plus, I don't like the design of the new armour. It looks too much like the Batman suits from the Dark Knight films crossed with Judge Dredd and they've saved one human hand. What would be the point of saving a human hand that would just make him vulnerable to most weapons? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeds chimp Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 Can't beat the original at all... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breastman Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 Will this have any of the originals social commentary?? I think the new suit looks much better in silver than black! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liam_italian Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 The suit in silver looks much better and a nice nod to the original, however that is probably the closest the film gets to keeping to the originals plot. I'm a little disappointed they haven't tried to follow the original plot and just update it a little. I agree with the hand comment aswell, seems stupid keeping one hand human flesh and the other robotic. This was part of the original films script and is one of the scenes were they are told to change the part for a robotic one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breastman Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 I thought we agreed about total body prosthesis?? Now lose the ******* arm! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canis Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 i can just about see the point when films where remade when the original was in back and white, had a low budget or had special effects that could be vastly improved upon. but why oh why remake robocop ?

Imperfection Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 I remember going to the cinema in 1987 to watch the original! This remake looks to be pretty good though so its worth a go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

secretagentmole Posted September 7, 2013 Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 The original will be a very hard film to top! Don't think I will bother with this one. Wonder if there is going to be a Dredd 2? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin&Oakley Posted September 7, 2013 Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 Cyborgs, mechs and futuristic UAV's......where's my god damn hand held railgun! To not follow atleast 5% of an original films story line and have the neck to call it the same is just not on. However, it looks ok. I will wait til LoveFilm release it.
