At least it looks like they're actually putting work into the reboot.
EDIT: Plus Wiki (so take it with a grain of salt) says the reboot has Gary Oldman, Hugh Laurie and Sam Jackson in it so there's no way it could be total crap

Sam Jackson huh? As Clarence Boniker? Or Robo? If Robo I don't see how they can pull off him saying MF'er in the Robo voice

I really, REALLY want Paul Bettany to play Murphy.

Here's hoping they still have the fake commercials like in the first two.

Can we still have someone want to buy things for a dollar?

Curiously: would Michael Fassbender make a good Murphy/Robocop?

I heard Samuel L Jackson is playing some corporation guy rather than a Boddicker type.
And the original "I'd buy that for a dollar guy" didn't know they were making a remake until somebody interviewed him about it. They should put him in it and give him a "With" credit.

Yeah, I didn't know that the reboot was still happening either. The ED-209 actually looking useful was really funny and the bits and pieces they showed of (presumably) Robocop were interesting.

Sam L. needs to play a villain more often, it's almost against type nowadays.
Though honestly it's more satisfying getting someone playing against type to play the villain.

The bits of RoboCop look like a Batsuit.

The bits of RoboCop look like a Batsuit. Plus, someone has gone on record saying that the suit is going under a major redesign, mostly to show off more of the face than before. Honestly, this is the thing I'm worried about the most. If there's no gun holster built into the leg, I'm out.

Can we get Steve Borden to do a cameo and return the favor?

After 3 and the cartoons, there is nothing they can do to hurt Robocop's legacy that those two failed to do.
