Cy-Fox: RoboCop

ovoon: This again?
I thought everyone liked RoboCop?
He meant 2'nd and 3'rd parts, probably. Nice movies, liked them myself, btw. Can't see why do they get so much bad rep.

I saw Robocop when it first came out in theaters. It was Paul Verahoven's first American film, and it was snarky and campy and brutal and satiric. I loved it. I still do.

I think a lot of younger people don't like (though obviously many do) it because it is dated. I don't think the film ages well... but for me and many others that doesn't matter because we can experience it in the context of the time it was made.

I've long wished someone would pen a new script for a Robocop reboot that was deadpan and more focused on the psychological impact to Murphy and his family and less concerned with satire about the corporate culture. Darren Aronyfsky was slated to do a remake of Robocop but backed out because the studio was jazzed about digital effects and he wanted to rely heavily on practical FX... and the project fell apart. Probably a good thing. A new Robocop that was just Transformers with a badge would suck harder than anything.

Kabuto: Barbarella.

So bad it's good and Barbarella does it without the pill!
Jane Fonda was really hot in that movie. Also, the soundtrack was awesome.
I approve of this post.

Cloverfield. Why does everyone seem to find it awful?

What about Prime Directives? I'm not going to say that it is as good as the original movie, but probably not as disappointing as it' sequels. Probably.

I've never seen it... but I just looked it up and I think I will give it a try.

Thanks :-)

Navagon: I would say Braindead. But the bit in parenthesis makes me uncomfortable doing so. But nonetheless there are some crazy fools who can't appreciate its finer qualities.
That movie is fun and disgusting at the same time... like that kiwi movie, "Bad Taste".

Maybe S.B.Cohen´s character "Ali G" was funny, but "Brüno" surely wasn´t (at least for me), so I don´t know if I would give him a chance again.
