RoboCop Returns?

[mikeboydus]

Say hello to the real Cobra gun, the Barrett XM-109

This "Payload rifle", as Barrett calls it, fires a 25 x 39mm HEPD (High Explosive Point Detonation) round designed to take out armored vehicles.

That he modified to look like his old body.

Read my post again.

i must have mis read it it sounded as he arrived in the future before he built the 'familiar' body using terminator parts which he did not do (arrive in the future that is).

hopefully they do a remake. im looking foward to it

well its probably going t be on the shelf again for awhile. Since mgm thing is still getting orted out. And we dont know if the reboot plans are even still a viable option for them to go with at this time. it will probably happen but probably not for another few yrs still. Though if the rumor a few weeks ago that mgm might be doing another tv show for the character maybe they decided to drop their film plans in line of a tv series instead. But i havent heard anything new on that.

crap.. i forgot about that

yea but who knows what will happen. We probably wont hear anything film/tv side for probably a few more months once all the mgm change is finalized and all that. unless they want to get cracking. if it does end up as series instead what network you think would be good to go for it. for me i think syfy would be a suitable home.

 

[Justkidding]

Syfy seems the most logical since they already have a good relationship with MGM through Stargate.

 

[GREEN =w= DAY]

the longer this movie gets postponed, or better yet cancelled, the better

i just can not see a remake turning out good

 

[Webhead2006]

Yea it would be suited well there and would go nicely along sgu/caprica/sancturary/eureka

I just hope if made they steer away from just action, and dig into stuff that the first did and also expand on it. Anyone working on a show like Robocop would have a good chance to not just write fun action or parody, but to also explore identity.

Oh totally we would need a good plot setting and decent producers/writers on it. If it went to series tv route.
