    It doesn't matter what they do, somebody on this forum will complain about it.

    You know I'm right.

    i love the idea for a remake,but they better pull out all the stops since what they thought was too gruesome back then is tame today. dont deviate form the original formula.....or else u have dawn 04

    -- -------- Post added at 07:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:43 PM ----------

    so most likely no one will agree with me on this....but to play robocop's partner........anne lewis..... KELLY CLARKSON. cmon, think about it, she's got that kind of look nancy allen had in the original. all innocent...and i'll be damned if she doesn't make me melt in my theater seat chewing that gum. just dont cut her hair.

    Gary Oldman now onbaord - http://www.aintitcool.com/node/55959

    Oldman will be playing Norton, "the scientist who creates Robocop and finds himself torn between the ideals of the machine trying to rediscover its humanity and the callous needs of a corporation." So Oldman may serve as the movie's conscience, perhaps? It's also nice to know that Padilha isn't eschewing the whole corporation angle from the original.

    Hugh Laurie from "House" is in as the CEO of Omnicorp: http://www.joblo.com/movie-news/hugh...ain-in-robocop

    I can't stand "House", but he seems like a pretty good choice for the role of a sleazy executive.


    Also, a poster seen at a recent licensing expo:

    ^^ I fear it's getting all glossy now! Like having Eddie Izzard as a villain

    Going to feel too Hollywood/glossy rather than grimey!

    This will do nothing to lay 'it doesn't look grimey enough' fears at rest? Ed209 is in it though:

    ED209 is 2-3 times the size of a tank? Really? He'll fit indoors how?

    An ED209 can blow up a tank? Really? Robocop will survive that how?

    A Belgian site posted these pics after they were quickly taken down from artist Mike Perkins' site. Apparently these are concept art and may or may not resemble what the future of law enforcement will look like:

    I am certain that the movie will be okay, as long as they retain the following things:

    1) The cheesy, yet creepy commercials.

    2) The OCP Robocop Directives

    3) Dick Jones

    4) ED 209

    If it does not have these four things, this movie will fail.
