    I'm not saying it looks incredible or great, but I admit it at least looks a little bit better than I was expecting it would. If the film has an "R" rating I think that could also be beneficial to its cause. And it was nice to see Detroit's true skyline this time around too (with the OCP building tucked in there).

    i normally hate these type of "superhero" movies but i liked the originals when I was a kid. I think robocop has potential to be deeper than the standard good guy beats the bad guy superhero movie with the emotional and ethical issues of life extension but you know it's probably just going to be stupid.

    That new Robocop looks like an exact combo of the two. The coloring and abdomen armor of TDK suit, the armor, face and general technology of Iron Man.

    I still don't get the human hand part, but whatever. This movie is going to have to do a lot to be considered good. The script got torn to shreds.
    The human hand is obviously for the corny emo parts.

    Eh. The trailer does actually look better than what I expected. The suit clearly looks better with the metallic finish. Why it changes I have no idea. And I didn't like the look of that scene with multiple robocops.

    Just from a quick scan of the trailer, I'd guess this is heading for an R rating, which I agree would help it's cause. The campy violence is a big part of what is essentially a socially satiracal exploitation flick. The trailer had hints at the violence. A pretty graphic shot of the mutilated body. And some implied sexual content, that could obviously be edited way down.

    The pushed back release date is a horrible sign. And an action movie opening in February, hell any movie opening in February, is basically throwing up the white flag. But perhaps they were just concerned about competition. I doubt it's going to review for shit. But Dredd had a few positive reactions for a movie of it's genre last year, and if it stays as dark thematically as that did, maybe it'll surprise people.

    I really like Joel Kinneman. He's Robocop here, and plays Detective Holder from The Killing. I hope if this doesn't work out he gets a second chance.

    Dredd had more than a few positive reactions. It was critically a success; especially considering the genre.

    I'll probably watch this and enjoy it at home just like the new Total Recall, but half of it will likely be nostalgia.

    Saw Jackie Earle Haley and Gary Oldman in the trailer. This is a must watch.

    78% on the tomatoe meter is very good for that genre. 73% among viewers on RT is good too. Although that genre is always weird to see the viewer rating below the critical rating.

    I'm thinking that means it is PG13. I have pretty much no faith in this movie after seeing the trailer. It looks like it might have a different storyline though, so that is the one plus. I hate when remakes just show you the exact same shit you have already seen.
