Robocop Reboot Suit Revealed

[danno]

Don't confuse satire with "so bad it's funny."

I didn't, you did.

Maybe you're mistaking Starship Troopers for Starship Troopers 2.

while I realize that the Robocop reboot is coming out, did it hit anyone else that the URL for the image of the 'suit' conspicuously had 'dredd' in it? I'm wondering if it may not be a set piece for the new Dredd movie, instead?

I thought more people realised Starship Troopers was satire? I knew it was immediately and really enjoyed that film.

What he said. I thought it was totally obvious even when I first saw the movie and it came out when I was 16.

Why are they still calling it the RC-2000?

Both. No tits and a gut.

...as in "what a woman's natural body looks like when it hasn't been touched up with gobs of plastic surgery and photoshop"???

Why are they still calling it the RC-2000?

Maybe to make it sound more badass than its biggest cyborg rival back in the day, the T-800.

[It is Fake]

I prefer the term "Abort/Retry/Fail?".

Naw, it actually wasn't that terrible. It was no worse than Terminator 3. T3 was T2 with better CG. An unnecessary movie with a badass ending. Reboot Recall was similar the ending was okay.

That was a sequel, Total Recall is a remake.
The original was nothing without Arnold, and this version doesn't have Arnold.
A reboot is when they start a series over, like they did with Spider-man.

You missed the point. Let me help you out.

He said it was terrible. At that point, we are not discussing REBOOT vs REMAKE.

I said the movie was no worse, while not commenting on reboot vs remake, than T3 being a copy of T2. I said "Reboot" Recall was SIMILAR in that regard. Notice, I did not say the same. Why? Being a sequel is the main difference between Reboot Recall and T3. Remove that and they are basically the same thing.

Clear now?

PS. No, a Reboot isn't only defined as when "they start a series over." A reboot is used for one off movies as well.

Here are a few examples in the media:

If you want to call it a remake go ahead, it fits both. Remember, I love semantics go ask Bodhi108 and W.Rabbit.

I didn't, you did.

Not in these films, there was nothing satirical about them. Just cheesy.
