Robocop Reboot Suit Revealed

Bring out the gimp.

Ask and ye shall receive.



It looks interesting.

I wonder if they'll have him fight a mechwarrior with the mind of an addict looking for more Supercrack.

SuperCrack is so passe. It will probably either be SuperMeth or UberOpioid!

Sonic Shower Salts?

Sonic Shower Salts?

That would turn it into a zombie movie at that point.

And then rip his brain out, after they both fall off the roof of the RenCen?

That would turn it into a zombie movie at that point.

The original Robocop (minus the sequels) was able to turn a satirical eye to American culture while simultaneously having lots of blood and gore, a la Starship Troopers. Plus, explored what it means to be human in a world that's more and more artificial. That actually sounds like a premise that could be expanded in a world of Robocop + zombies. And for those not interested in subtext and satire, there would be Robocop + zombies. The only problem is that Robocop vs zombies is more one-sided than a Superman movie.

I don't need to say anything, right? You all see what's wrong here?

I'm hoping that what's missing is the CGI FX. Like that superfluous right hand will actually be a mini-minigun that fires low-yield nuclear-explosive, caseless rounds.

I'm in the minority that liked RoboCop 2.

Now, RoboCop 3 had android ninja...

...and Jill Hennessey.

[It is Fake]

I'm guessing the suit is going to be a canvas for all sorts of CG. Otherwise... bleh. Can't go messing with Robocop like that.

I thought the same thing and it didn't help the Total Recall reboot at all.
