Could have seen it. Saw the Lego Movie with my daughter instead. It was fucking fantastic.

There were a lot of movies from my youth that were remakes as well.  Some guy I worked with pointed it out to me when we had a similar discussion.

I'm sure there were some,but not nearly as much as today. Every other movie seems to be a remake these days. Everything's been done before,so I guess it's some kind of time paradox.

I would just pick up the newly released 4k Blu Ray transfer @ 1080p original 1987 with all the special edition DVD extras and all that. Amazon has it for 7.99 last I saw. It came out a few weeks ago.

I really don't get why people like the dredd remake. I'm in the minority on that one. I honestly thought it was boring and generic. Once they got inside the complex and was just shoot shoot shoot shoot your way 2 the top and kill the main bad guy. I remember watching the movie and looking at the time alot and wondering when the movie was going to be over. The robocop movie was no different though.

I would more think it was his junk being shot/blown up would stop him jerking off.... unless you meant jerkin someone else off? :D Robomanwhore?

It's actually not as bad as it could have been. It's a decent reimagining of the Robocop idea and does some new things with the idea.

That said, the 1987 original is just far more entertaining and better paced. Verhoven may never sniff an Oscar, but his movies are rarely boring, this one kinda dragged for bits. The 2nd half of the movie is not as strong as the first half.

Michael Keaton and Sam Jackson were good though.

Whats ppls problems realy? Its a remake its suposed to be diferent from the original, anyone comparing ti to the original is just beeing obtuse, theyre 2 diferent storys, the remake should be viewed as its own thing, and on that aspect its actualy a pretty good movie.

Not sure why you're asking, really.  Most of the folks who've actually seen it and have an issue are clearly explaining themselves.  Others are simply concerned that the creative vaccuum in Hollywood is contributing to a slew of cash grabs.  And even others cited examples of remakes that made sense, and that this particular one simply doesn't.  The original Robocop didn't have the kinds of deplorable issues that the original Judge Dredd did.  Likewise with the original Total Recall v the remake.

People have different tastes, that's all.

I heard its fecal crap! But I never seen him, I only heard it form a friend
