[The Outsider]

Source: Coming Soon

Well, it's certainly different!

 

[Alucrid]

space marines

looks like a bastard mix of crysis, mass effect and the dark knight

 

[heliosRAzi]

I like it, but it needs to be more shiny

 

[Count Dookkake]

More like IronCop.

 

[Snaku]

Looks like those suits in the Paris scene in GI Joe: Rise of the Cobra Surfer.

 

[Blablurn]

where is the soul? it looks terrible boring and .... not special or iconic at all.

 

[zephervack]

Wtf, thats awful

 

[Guevara]

that looks really stupid


PSA: Robocop is available on Netflix streaming, watch that instead.

 

[Ether_Snake]

Looks too much like just a guy in a suit, unlike the original which actually looked like a machine.

 

[Fry]

Hhahahahahaha

That's STRAIGHT out of Mass Effect.

 

[SunhiLegend]

That's really the new Robocop suit?

 

[CrankyJay]

It's Judge Batman, or Dreddbat.

 

[echoshifting]

Fugly as sin.

 

[DieH@rd]

I like it.

Metal armors are oldfashioned now that we can make much more advanced materials.

 

[davepoobond]

it looks like Judge dredd's outfit was re-used.


they're doing "different" for the sake of being different.

they really should have kept the old suit's ideas and its iconic helmet and then updated it a little bit. that's all they needed to do. instead, we get this.

I like it.

Metal armors are oldfashioned now that we can make much more advanced materials.

this matters, why? hahahah. The first Robocop was already set "in the future." You mean in real life we can make better materials for them to wear? Do you think it actually WAS real metal or that this costume is?

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

I laughed out loud. This suit looks terrible.

 

[Arsenic]

Terrible. looks like GI Joe

 

[web01]

Looks crap but I am wondering if its going to be touched up or completely altered with CG.

Too me it looks too ordinary to be how it will actually appear.

This. Another childhood favorite ruined.

 

[radios shipping overview]

Murphy moonlights as a DJ

 

[Gila]

 

[TheMan]

fucking stupid looking

the robocop suit from the 80s was so iconic, i find it odd that they just completely changed it up to something that isn't at all reminiscent of the original. it reminds me more of the batsuit than anything else.

 

[harSon]

Raiden from Metal Gear Solid?

 

[Volimar]

"Who are you?"

"I'm IronBatCop!"

Spoiler

I hope that's placeholder for CGI

 

[Dennis]

I am Commander RoboCop and this is my favorite store in Detroit.

 

[Link]

That's certainly a suit.

 

[davepoobond]

This. Another childhood favorite ruined.

i wouldnt say that my childhood favorite was ruined, just that the new movie wasn't as good as it could have been.

which remains to be seen if the movie itself is even any good.

 

[echoshifting]

This is some savvy gif usage right here.

 

[Cyrillus]

Dead or alive, I AM THE LAW!

 

[StalkerUKCG]

Looks like slimmed down N7 armor from Mass Effect.

 

[Evolved1]

Suit is doing nothing for me... the movie will have to be amazing to compensate...

It looks like something he's wearing... not something he's made of. Fail.

 

[Benson]

Looks like an Iron Man suit before it's been painted! Everything I hear about this movie is making me think it's going to stink.

 

[WillyFive]

Well, at least it's an actual guy in a suit instead of CGI.

 

[Ducarmel]

It looks alright to me, it was inevitable it would look different and try a more edgy look.

 

[Tobor]

Jesus tap dancing Christ.

This just ruined my afternoon.

 

[CrankyJay]

"let's just copy Batman begins franchise"

Seems they're hoping a formula ripoff will ensure a hit.

 

[GDGF]

That suit looks like crap.

Too much man, and not enough machine.

 

[grap3fruitman]

So apparently to definition of "reboot" is to take some incredibly iconic and unique and make it as generic as possible. Good job Hollywood.

 

[ThirstyFly]

Looks too much like just a guy in a suit, unlike the original which actually looked like a machine.

That's pretty much what I thought.

It's not as bad as I had expected it to be after seeing ED-209, but it's still not good and not nearly machine enough.

 

[SonicMegaDrive]

Does he also talk like Christian Bale Batman?

 

[echoshifting]

It looks alright to me, it was inevitable it would look different and try a more edgy look.

Perhaps, but the overwhelmingly obvious parallels to other recent super-suits were NOT inevitable. The chest piece in particular looks absurd for what is supposed to be a cyborg who is more machine than man. I can live with the helmet.

 

[Atramental]

.

whoops didn't mean to post

 

[SouthernDragon]

Looks like a mismash of Iron Man and Batman.

 

[SJRB]

That does not look robotic at all.

My only guess is they'll CGI it up with additional details.

 

[BFA]

Eww.

 

[Raptor]

Where is all the shiny metal?

Next you will tell me he will walk like a regular human?

......

 

[strafer]

That is beyond awful.

 

[Evolved1]

Will he be slow and clunky?

 

[SonicMegaDrive]

On the bright side though, the original RoboCop is still awesome and just as good as ever.

 

[iNvid02]

thats not robocop, looks like a generic bad guy soldier from a random scifi film

not even silver, come on
