Mikezilla:
I just read a snippet about the new Robocop remake, and they said that the new suit is going to allow the actors face/eyes to be visible. I think that is a mistake considering eyes convey so much emotion. I think they made it clear that Robo is still somewhat human during the last act of the orginal when he gets shot by Ed209 and it shows his eyes for the first time since he was transformed. They are also talking about making it PG-13. Im a huge Robocop fan and both of this little tidbits made me cringe. Any thoughts.

Green Giant:
They are making a new Robocop?

spoot:
I won't be buying this for a dollar!

yotsuya:
I like Mike. He lives in the 80s, just like me.  >:D

Vigo:
Maybe it's a testament to Peter Weller, but I thought in the original he had no problem showing emotion or lack of without his eyes visible. You could just tell how much of Murphy was creeping out in Robocop as the movie progressed. I don't know if showing robocop's eyes is necessarily a bad thing, but it is gonna most likely going to change the dynamic of Robocop quite a bit. I really liked how you could just brush him off as nothing but a machine, and everybody does except for his old partner. It will be hard to make that element work if you can look right in his eyes.

As for the rating, I really hope they don't lose that dark, yet humorous vibe to it. I would love if they play fake commercials throughout the movie like the original.
