The reason Robocop has been a mainstay in pop-culture for so many years is because it's laced in satire. This remake looks like they are going all "dark knight" and that goes against the basic premise of the original.
Movies in general have become cesspools of unoriginality to the point of basic cable shows dominating them in every facet. Praise Allah that South Korea is churning out quality movies or I might just go back to reading books.

Sometimes I wonder how long they'll keep up the shitty gen-x nostalgia sequel obsession. The answer of course is until it stops working.
By the way, it's a waste of your time to watch a robocop movie not made during during the height of 80's unintentionally comedic excess because that's the sole appeal of the movie.

That's subjective. Do I think it will have the sharp satirical edge the original did? No. Do I think it will have as solid of a plot? No. Do I think it's a waste of time? No. I happen to enjoy action movies with cool special effects.
I sort of think of the new gen remakes as the hot slutty bitches you bang a couple times and never talk to again. Would I but it and watch it many times over a period of decades, like the original? No. Would I give it a whirl and enjoy it once or twice and forget it? For certain.

I suppose that makes sense if you like modern action movies, although in that case there's no real reason to get excited about it being a Robocop movie. The only action movies I like are comically excessive 80's movies and unintentionally over the top shit like Fast and the Furious. The fast-cutting car chase of the week movie always puts me to sleep, which is what the new Robocop will be.
