RoboCop Reboot - Part 2

[Marvin]

2 things.
With robo leaning forward on the back as opposed to the more up right Harley style(most cops use). It kinda takes away from the rebotic lumbering presence of the former incarnation. I'm not feeling it but time will tell.

And secondly this whole black metal thing is kinda dumb to me and it's no more evident than when I see him on the bike. Give him a cape and we have the nolan bat suit. Black metal just doesn't do it for me. Even terminator doesn't mess with the color of metal. Again time will tell(it's probably not even metal).
Then again between T4 and TF anything's possible.

He has a few sequences with it, there is one chase sequence with a school bus if I remember it correctly. Or something that ends with a school bus in trouble. In other words ya lol, there is a chase sequence with it.

A bike chase, this pleases me. Funnily enough the only thing bar the end fight I can really recall from Robocop 2 is where he's on the bike and plays chicken with Kaine in the truck.

When I first read the caption I wasn't feeling it but I think this works. The bike looks sick and completely fits the new suit aesthetic, even looking a bit like an extension of Robo himself. When I think about it, I always thought it was a bit strange that the original Robo drove around in a standard police car, a Ford Taurus at that. Though, the new Taurus police car is pretty rad. That shot of him coming right at the camera sells it.

I think it IS an extension of Robocop himself. Pretty sure he plugs into the bike somehow.

He looks like he's docking into the bike with his crotch.

 

[The Guard]

The bike as an extension of his manhood, eh? Maybe this IS a more human Robocop...

Exactly. Everything we've seen so far has Robocop going for a more sleeker look, so it's only right that he rides a sportsbike rather than a cruising around on a Harley. I love all of the slow/clunky machines characters of the 80's as much as anybody else on here, but I'm pretty optimistic about what I've been seeing so far. It's really not that bad.

The bike looks fine, and I like how it matches up with the suit, eg. the red at the front. Should be fun.

Love the bike. And I agree that it's probably an extension of Robocop himself.

 

[ChickenScratch]

Reminds me of the bike from Robocop Alpha Commando. If you guys remember, he did dock with that bike and it pretty much formed around him. You can find episodes of it on Hulu if you wanna see.

Yeah it would make sense that he will actually interface with the bike.

 

[Piper Maru]

I like what I'm seeing!

What was the original release date for this film? I just read that it got pushed to February of 2014.

 

[Solidus]

Wow Elysium got pushed back to August 9th now instead of March. Now this?

 

[Project862006]

August 9, 2013 was original release date

 

[Symbiotic]

Sure enough. February 7th, 2014. Damn.

 

[batsfan81]

Man that sucks. If it means they can improve the film I guess its ok, still sucks. This and MOS were my highest anticipated movies next year.

 

[mclay18]

If Sony thinks this might do better in early 2014, then I'm all for it. And it did take a little longer than usual for it to get filming anyway.

 

[Britannic]

Damn it... from Summer release to February...
I would not be surprised if it's actually because of the huge backlash this movie gets...

 

[MadVillainy]

got pushed back? Dammit man...

 

[Hunter Rider]

Sucks that it's been pushed back, I was hoping for a teaser trailer by Christmas.

Interesting influence to draw from.

 

[kickass]

Damn it! I hope it's for the best in the end. Found the script btw (finally haha) and I just started reading it now. Excited! Does anyone know why it's being pushed back?
