Well, that's it for me, then! I'm officially consigning the remake to the list of films I'm never going anywhere near. It may well be a decent little movie in its own right, but it doesn't sound like my idea of a good time.

Silver lining: I feel a bit more inclined to buy the remastered edition of the first movie now!

been considering the new rmaster too. looks fine. love clunky feel everything has. and also the ending, one the rmake doesnt come close!

We were talking about old Sci Fi novels on the What're you reading thread. The Frederick Pohl novel Man Plus really gets into the guts (pun intended) of creating a cyborg. :-[

looked it up. sounds icky. had nightmares about such stuff as a kid. a strong hate/fear towards cyborgs and aliens. still gets me a bit when some people i know willingly wants to become cyborgs.

Damn good read, the follow up novel wasn't really up to the first but had some really good ideas on space elevators ( or a space fountain in this instance).

The worst thing about this movie is that it will probably make more money then Dredd and get sequels.

Watched Robocop (2014) tonight.

Word's fail me to express just how bad it was. Suffice to say that it took everything that made the Verhoeven film so successful and junked it and added tedious and cliched domestic scenes of Murphy/ Wife/Kid and more 'crying' scenes.
Awful!   :o

I watched it today. Quite enjoyed it if a bit empty and nonsensical.

EmoCop (2014), I could do without it.

It lacked everything that make the original a great movie & brought nothing new to the table.
