I disagree. Black one looks like something out of Mass Effect or GI Joe. First one looks more mechanical and true to form.

Much, much better.
something still seems off
This is what the suit should look like. Also, I agree with everyone else...they need to get rid of that hand.

everything in hollywood gets rubbed down to blandness by committee....
No, there is. Robocop is being sold as a product under the guise that he's just a cop in a suit. The hand is there to make him appear more human and approachable.

The problem is not the color. That concept has the right robot-like feel to it, which is what is missing on the new suit.
Anyway the script that was released is retarded, regardless of what the suit is like.

Wait, so it IS set in Detroit? I thought they had changed the setting to LA?
No it isn't. He tells his wife that in RoboCop 2, but only to spare her feelings.

I think I've seen Michael K. Williams in more roles a cop/authority figure than anything else, but I'll always see him as Omar. It's as if he's desperate not to be typecast as a thug again, haha.
I heard Michael Keaton talking about it in an interview with Marc Maron and he actually got me really excited. The plot seems to be surprisingly deep. If they pull it off it could be amazing. If they don't it will be a disaster.
Not sure what to make of the re-shoots and long delay though.

Why a reshoot? What was wrong with what they had?

just coming in here to post that. hahaha. Nice!
There's "no reason" because you haven't heard the reason. I'm sure there's a reason because it seems very specific. So just wait for the reason when you watch the movie instead of calling it "ridiculous".
Well there you go.

Yep. I dont know why this is so hard for people to get. It's quite clear as day how [the OmniCorps marketing department] thought about that.
I have a funny story.
A while ago they were shooting at a gas station right around the corner from my house. About a week or so before they started shooting I got a standard notice put in my mailbox that the street was going to be closed for a movie shoot (I live in the studio district in Toronto, so this is quite common). The cool part was that it was written on Omnicorp letterhead - no reference of Robocop or anything.
I went out for my nightly walk with my dog and noticed camera equipment, lights, etc., set up at the gas station around the corner. Much to my surprise, they were actually in the middle of shooting a scene! I decided to walk over with my dog to check it out.
The gas station sits between two streets that run north and south of it. I walk on the south side, going slowly to make sure I wasn't upsetting anyone. I proceed to go almost directly south of the gas station. Then a whole bunch of people start to scramble and it's clear they are going to start another take. A pretty young woman walks up to me and asks that I stand a bit down the street so I'm out of the shot. The weird thing is she told me not to stand where I came from but actually move down the road where I'm even more directly in front of the gas station.
I did what I was told and stood still with my dog. The sound and camera guys get into place and the the actors get to their marks. The shooting starts. A sweet car - I think the new Camaro - pulls into the gas station and an actor gets out. He starts talking with other people at the gas station. There's a woman, too.
So far the cameras are all pointed away from me. Now it makes sense to me that I was told to stand at this spot.
That is until the actors start to move and the cameras swing around to POINT DIRECTLY AT ME. I'm frozen, unsure of what to do. I look around, trying to find the young woman. Then I see one of the camera guys poke his head around his camera, looking at me. I can see he's thinking WTF is this guy doing standing here. The shooting goes on for another minute and then I hear "CUT!" A man runs towards me and asks me to move down the street. He then finds the girl and starts reaming her out. Clearly she made a big mistake.
So I proceed down the street away from the gas station. I loop north and go back toward the gas station to go home. Now I'm on the north side of the street... directly in front of the gas station again. This time nobody is here to direct me so I march on.
THEN THEY START SHOOTING AGAIN. I stand still, frozen again. They don't ask me to move, even thought the cameras are pointed right at me. I decide to walk slowly away.
So if you see a pug and an awkward looking guy in the movie, you know it's your fellow gaffer, RSTEIN.

LOL, I'll go to see this film no matter how shitty it may turn out just to keep an eye for the dude with a pug.
