I was just telling my husband how cool it'd be for one of Hollywood's big shot directors to tackle and remake Robocop. Now, I'm not saying that Robocop was an epic movie but in the right hands it COULD be and make a fantastic comeback..

Anyway, out of pure curiosity, I did a search online and stumbled upon some recent Robocop stills. Haven't read up on any of the links but it looks like Robocop may already be in the works. Whether that be a television series, or an actual movie, I don't know.. But I'd be interested in this hitting the big screen, and reliving some nostalgia!

I remember watching Robocop long ago and being stunned at the over-the-top violence. I remember thinking the movie was almost funny because of how cartoonishly violent it was.

Honestly, I only remember bits and pieces of it but I think that it 'could' have potential to be a great remake, in the right director's hands. They could jump start a fresh franchise, like they did with Batman.

I thought the over-the-top violence of Robocop was kinda the point... That it was a mocking social commentary of the violence in films

yes there is a redo in the works.

Mebbe if they reduced the violent content several notches.

I loved the scene where one of the bad guys gets doused with toxic liquid. That was really scary looking back when the movie came out (I've seen worse since then). The original movie is a piece of modern American art. They should leave it alone.

Cognitive dissonance moment - Watching Peter Weller lecture on Renaissance art.

You mean like how they are remaking "Red Dawn" with the Chinese now instead of Russia?

What, two sequels, a television series, two animated TV series, and a television mini-series weren't enough for you people?

I'm holding out for the musical.

I did not know this!
