Peter Weller Outlines Why The ROBOCOP Remake Will Have Trouble Matching Up To The Original

Hitfix caught up with original Robocop Peter Weller at the Star Trek Into Darkness Blu-ray release party and quizzed him about the upcoming remake. Weller says he hasn't seen the trailer but that he wishes them well, right before brilliantly launching into a detailed analysis of what made the original such a classic. I think most fans of the movie know that there's a lot more to it than just blood and bullets, and Weller pretty much sums that all up here.



Do you think this remake has a hope of being anything but a pale imitation? Sound off below.
