Robocop remake

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

Can I be the first to say it?

I wouldn't buy that for a dollar.

But first... Total Recall remake.

The Total Recall remake's gonna be 100% pure ****. Colin Farrell is an awful actor with a physical defect that makes him look sad/confused all the time.

He's still better casting for a Philip K. Dick character (vulnerable, fallible, generally neurotic) than Arnie though.

Still not very good though.

I wish it reflected the times more, ie Robotcop should be a predator drone that checks your papers.

Robocop is pretty much my fav movie of all time.

Since ive been about 10 (i saw it in the US two years before it hit the UK) I have been able to quote the film line for line - takes about 90 sheets of A4 to write out... suffice to say i love the movie.

The remake will be utter gash, you cannot make a film like Robocop today, its the back end of the 80's a mix of drugs, sex, ultra-ultra-violence and real models, not CGI... its just hit all the right notes and had a script to match.

If you ever get a chance try and watch the directors cut, its not for the squeamish, Murphys death is yukky!

You can watch that on youtube believe it or not.

I am pretty much in the same camp as you, love the film. although I didn't get to see it in America.

My best mate's brother is significantly older than us and "I got it this on pirate lads, have a watch!"

Ah, the end of the 80s / beginning of the 90s...
