This is not the set photo. Perhaps unfortunately.
This weekend we saw the new RoboCop suit in José Padilha’s remake. I think a co-worker at my other job summed it up best when I showed him the picture on Saturday and he yelled, “WHAT THE GOD DAMN IT.” Now we have more pictures from the Toronto set, a teaser poster, and a casting update.
We’ve put some of the pictures from Just Jared below. Joel Kinnaman is now wearing a robe to keep the suit covered, but there’s still plenty to see. The cars look pretty cool, even though the wheel wells are impractical.
Additionally, THR says Aimee Garcia (who plays Dexter’s nanny and Angel’s sister on Dexter) has signed on to play “a scientist who helps put together the Robocop with his creator, played by Gary Oldman.” She’s joining a cast which also includes Samuel L. Jackson, Abbie Cornish, Michael K. Williams, Michael Keaton, Jackie Earle Haley, Jay Baruchel, Jennifer Ehle, and Marianne Jean-Baptiste, The Professor, and Mary Anne.

Here come the judge…






Am I the only one who thinks they raided the wardrobe of G.I. Joe Rise of cobra and stole the “Accelerator Suits”?

That’s one of the BIG problems here: so many damned movies have used that “generic black muscle suit” that Robocop looks more like Snake Eyes, the Guyver, the Wraith, like he’s wearing the Batsuit with the ears shaved off….you name it, the comparison fits. The original suit was ICONIC, man. This? This reminds you of so many different things that it just feels like a lazy ripoff.
worst, it reminds you of shitty things
Calm down, my sons, this is the suit without any CGI. Let’s take a valium and save our righteous indignation for the final product, shall we? Alright, then.
i still think that the suit needs a dash of color. maybe silver and blue?
“Jarvis, throw in a little bit of hot rod red.”
I don’t know, there was something magical about the ’87 Taurus LX from the first movie that just screamed “Welcome to the World of Tomorrow!”
i didn’t know robocop smokes.
