Not that into Robocop and I haven' really seen any movie for it.
I grew up with the original and I absolutely love it; it remains one of my favorite Sci Fi movies of all time. I watched it recently and I can't believe how ahead of its time it was, some of the themes they touched upon... feels prophetic. I even like the second and enjoy parts of the third one. I never watched the TV series they made and didn't really liked the reboot I felt they missed the mark. I remain cautious with this one, I'll take a wait and see approach before I make any judgement.
I'm old enough to remember seeing the original (multiple times) in the theater as a 12-year old, and I didn't have much issue with the reboot. Not sure we need a "re-quel" but if the script is based off of one from the original writers then I'm cautiously optimistic.
I love Robocop, but I am gonna go ahead and say that this franchise is dead and has a nice place in our memories. Let's leave it there and don't try to mess with it. They have tried this once and didn't go so well.
It's like so many others Predator, Aliens, Terminator, Rambo, etc.
That's the way I think and I believe that Jay thinks that too.
What do you think?
