Big-budget movies are conceived of and shot for the trailer. Meaning if the trailer is bad, there's almost no chance the movie is good. If that was the best they could show... yikes.

Not sure how I feel about it...
Definitely looks like it'll be worth checking out, though.

I hope TNA does cross-promotion and he can hook back up with Sting next year.

Not a fan of the new look at all. Plus, they got rid of his awesome handgun it seems, and that just ain't right!

The updated suit looked pretty cool in the original color scheme then it became all black and tried to hard. Helmet going back and forth is silly. The actor and studio wants everyone to know the face underneath, reminds me of Spider-man films where the mask would always come off so people knew it's Tobey Maquire.

It feels boring and cliche, and shit like the fact that he has his memories from the get go annoy me. One of the best bits from the original Robocop was how he slowly regained his memories of his family and his near death at the hands of Clarence Boddicker. It's why "Murphy, it's you." is such a strong line. In the original it was about the man freeing himself from the machine. Here he's just essentially a guy in a metal suit. Also, Murphy's family still being there also bugs me.
It seems like another soulless remake without any of the fun from the original. No thank you.

Generic action movie looks generic.
What was wrong with just having the original Robocop? Is the lack of cgi so incredibily offensive to some people?

Brilliant, that looks like absolutely every other boring, blue sky'd sexy sci fi film about handsome looking pricks in silly costumes flying around that's been released in the past decade with titles like HARMONIUM or EXCREMENTA.
What a pile of shit. No thanks!

Wow...
Completely missed the entire point of the 1st movie, which was a man finding his identity again. He's nothing like the Alex Murphy from the original movie. Is it THAT hard to use that same formula? Change the story and character if you must, but jesus christ, at the end of the day, it was about a machine becoming a man again. I guess they needed to "flesh out" the human element here instead of having him go through a real arc. I suppose the "he's not really in control" is the driving point that they'll push through with, but that's still dumb as shit. The original Robocop worked because it was a man who didn't know who he was. This shit is a man who knows who he is and as a result is putting himself and others in danger.

If this succeeds while Dredd bombed, there's no justice in this world. Though, they could've just made a trailer to cover the basic bullet points and the actual movie will be...better. Though, whenever I see Robocop, I wonder why it took him so long to find out who killed Rosie Larsen.

Ok...first the good - Michael Keaton AND Gary Oldman in the same movie. That's pretty a pretty strong selling point for me. coughsBatman&Gordoncoughs
Now, the bad - everything else.
Its not even the costume re-design, which I like, its just....it looks more Total Rekall than Dredd.
