I actually liked the idea of a remake of this particular movie, mostly because I enjoyed some scenes from RoboCop a great deal, but felt that Verhoeven took the action parts of the movie so over the top that it became a mess. I think it would be interesting to see another take on it. Given the state of drone warfare and the use of technology by law enforcement it does seem rather topical as well.
#2: The action is fantastic in the original Robocop imo. The only exception is the cocaine-processing factory shootout. That's a bit much. But the rest of the action scenes are pretty great.
When do we get a Showgirls remake?
robocop 3 had Steven Root and CCH Pounder, bring them back for the sequel remake :)
This Robocop remake reminded me a lot of it, and I mean that primarily in a good way.
