The first shot of the Robocop reboot’s hero has been snapped, showing Joel Kinnaman kitted up in an all black robo-suit that looks more like Batman dumped into a Tron-visored world, rather than Robocop of old.
With a pretty decent cast, including the awesome Gary Oldman and legendary Samuel L Jackson, I have high hopes for the reboot of Detroit’s hero-of-choice. Does an all-black suit mean Robocop‘s going to be a bit more suitable and less of a “hey, I’m right here, shoot at me, I’m a dumb robot”? Let’s just hope it leaves the corny, awkwardly-flying, cheese-factor at home. [ComingSoon via TotalFilm]
This RoboCop Reboot Omnicorp Viral Shows Off Drones, Mechs and Cyborgs
Los Angeles Is Tron's World
Oh Dear, Robocop's New Vehicles Look Lame
This will suck I can tell
I know this current trend of redoing classic cornball films (like Total Recall) means Hollywood is running out of ideas but I loved the new total recall and I hope Robocop is great too.
I am especially looking forward to the remake of the scene where he drives through one henchmen just after he has been partially melted by acid
Although I wonder why he is missing a glove….
Probably just walking to the set.
He is a cyborg, and still has most of a working anatomy. His right hand is for that more personal touch to ‘self-abuse’. While his left is sort of like (weve all done it) when you sit on your hand for 10 min till it goes numb and pretend its someone else.
Token, how did you manage to sit on yer hand, yer arms and hands being so small n that… ?
Ha – although you would have though it would have been easier to install a numb hand now command in his operating system to save that 10 minutes.
After all a crime fighter can’t waste time “sitting” around!
In the original Clarence only shoots one of hands off, perhaps they have kept with the original plot?
Tyler: We were able to save the left arm.
Bob Morton: What? I thought we agreed on total body prosthesis, now lose the arm okay!
Johnson: Well he signed a release form when he joined the force. He’s legally dead. We can do pretty much what we want to him.
Bob Morton: Lose the arm.
Props sir, exactly what I was thinking… love that film.
Maybe he’s not completely cyborg. Maybe one hand was saved.
Went to the cinema the other day and 4 out of the 6 or so previews were for remakes of old movies..
As long as they leave Back to the Future alone, I’ll be happy. Although I can see that being ruined some time soon.
Thankfully that was during the time of sequels rather than reboots. Although Sam Lloyd might be able to replace his uncle if they do..
Not necessarily running out of Ideas I think they just found an easy way to keep creating films (read: make money) and they’re going for it rather than taking risks on original stories. There’s also a wealth of books out there to be made into films which we’ll see a lot of too I think.
Not wishing to sound like one on them Scientology dudes I hope they remake “Battlefield Earth”, I loved that book
Gary Oldman as Clarence? I think he would make a good Clarence Bodicker. Saying that, I quite liked teh 80s cheeseballness of the originals :/ All these remakes make me feel old
I read somewhere that Oldman plays the part of an OCP scientist who wasn’t part of the original plot. It looks like they’re deviating significantly from the original.
I wanna see a remake of the running man… That was a classic.
“Here’s your Subzero, now plain zero”
Bitches leave.
I’d ‘av him.
As I said on G+ when I saw this “OMFG it’s the Bat-Dredd”
Bat-Robo-Dredd.

That is all.
Holy shit no, don’t click that!
Ah the great paradox. You have told me that I shouldn’t click that so automatically I want to.. But my boss is also just across the room.. Gahhrhghsh!
I would like a remake of Flight of the navigator, goonies, weird science and terminator
Holy shit, See you later, navigator! Those effects are still pretty impressive to my eyes.
But who would play Kelly LeBrock?
Can we still have Oingo Boingo doing the theme song?!
I love ROBOCOP… but that looks gaaaaaaay
You’re gay!
How am I ever going to find a witty enough retort to that verbal thrashing…

Yeah its Batman come dark Iron Man, mixed in with a little bit of Guyver.
Just as long as they dont give him a fucking Jet Pack, I don’t care.
Oh no! That looks arse
That fella at front wi the hat on looks like silent bob…
it looks super wank! i say the original robocop costume in an exhibition when i was a kid and it looked awesome, this looks like a dude in motorcycle leathers and a helmet, surely they could have come up with something more epic looking than that
I wouldn’t judge too much at this point – maybe it was a screen test?
Maybe there is a lot of post processing on the suit?
I agree it looks rubbish though
Unless he’s on his way to get them you would see a ton of tracking markers on the suit if it was to be CGI’d
Yeah that’s what I thought, but can’t they apply some filters? Textures?
