I wanted to go see a movie today since I had the day off, but I ended up just sleeping and watching Robocop and half of Robocop 2. The movie itself is awesome, but Robocop himself is damn near useless.

Robocop getting no love :csad:

He tries Charlie Boy

And he kicked ass at the end of Robocop 2
 
Maybe I'll watch the second half of Robocop 2 then. But from what I saw, he was a joke. Did you guys know they made like 5 direct to video Robocop movies? And yes, they're just as crappy as you're imagining them to be.
 
Sick shirt. If they made Robocop more mobile instead of so damn clunky and awkward, I could get on board with Officer Alex J. Murphy.
 
That's a movie that's crying out for a remake, honestly. Probably more than any other property I could think of...
 
I would watch it :up:

I've seen ads for some of those and thought they looked pretty good

Thats seriously disapointing :csad:

Completely agree. There were a lot of great elements to the movie, but I just couldn't get past how ineffective Robocop was. You'd need an unknown to be Robocop though. I can't see any big name being willing to cover his entire face and speak in monotone for 2 hours.

They look like they were shot in the same style as Skinemax movies from the mid to late 90's.

Hell, Stallone wasn't willing to in Judge Dredd... All of the "Ooops, Spidey's mask tore" moments which inevitably occur...

Judge Dredd...

Dredd for God's sake!

Dredd for God's sake!

And thats terrible :dry:

I'm really hoping that in the Spiderman and Dredd remakes they both keep their masks on
 
They already did, Karl Urban is Judge Dredd.
 
Dammit, they could've burned that money. Such a waste.
 
Yeah? I think there's a good movie in Dredd...
 
Agreed if they adapted some of the better stories into a film it could be amazing

I would :hrt: to see Judge Dredd vs Judge Death on the big screen :up:

Do you think he'll be any good Darth
 
I prefer Punisher to Dredd... But I think there's more of cinematic value to Judge Dredd than Punisher, or at least it's easier to make an interesting Judge Dredd film because of the world AROUND the characters that they exist in.

Punisher would depend a lot more on finding a balance with the writing and selecting actors who can make it work. That's still important to Dredd but the sets should at least be able to distract.

yep, here's a photo they released months ago from some magazine.

Agreed Dredd himself is pretty two dimensional but the world around him can be used to create some pretty interesting and entertaining stories
 
Man drunkenness is awesome! All you prudes, I'd we have any in here should try it.
