Heeeere we go again...

Deadline sez there's a new RoboCop flick in the works, to be directed by Neill Blomkamp of "District 9" and "Chappie" fame.

Apparently it will be based off of a sequel script the writers of the original drafted back in the late '80s but was never used.

The article doesn't specify if the flick will feature the "old school" RoboCop or the new-look 2014 version, but since this script idea was connected with the original film(s), I would imagine they'd go with the O.G. version. I sure hope so anyway.

Well, they would have to try hard to make it as bad as the remake.

It occurs to me that this thread probably would've been better placed in the "Movie News/Press Releases" part of the forum. If any of the Mods are reading this would you be so kind as to move it??

Aaarrrgh, just shoot me now, please: another remake of a classic film is bad enough, but Blomkamp?  Buggedout Buggedout

Not a fan, huh?

The only one of Blomkamp's films I've ever seen was District 9, which I liked well enough.

I've heard mixed reviews of Elysium, it's been on my list to check out but I haven't gotten round to it yet.

The trailers for Chappie looked really stupid so I intentionally passed on that.

Saw District 9 on TV. Cool, but far too obvious.

Thank you writer! I never would've connected those dots myself! :/
