I'm excited by the cast, but this whole reboot feels like Total Recall all over again.

As someone who lives in Michigan, Robocop is the most accurate portrayal of Detroit.

IT'S AN AWESOME CAST...BUT THE STUFF I HEAR ABOUT ROBO'S DESIGN...I DONT KNOW..I TRUST THE CAST OF GOOD ACTORS.. BUT...I DUNNO. THAT TOTAL RECALL MOVIE WAS SUCH BS.NO ALIENS NO MUTANTS NO MARS. JUST ROBOTS(REMINDED ME OF FRIGG'N CLONE WARS) AND FLOATING CARS.I SAW MORE SKIN FROM SHARON STONE THAN I DID FROM EITHER JESSICA BIEL OR KATE BECINSALE..

part of me is actually quite glad thay are changing roles to the original so it won't be too much the same and will hopefully make for interesting story lines.

but... if all goes tits up, ive still got the original to keep on watching!!
