Isn't the Omnicorp site just the same shit as Prometheus just conceived and art directed really badly.
I mean compare it to this and theres just no contest
Makes the Robocop video look like some kids Vimeo submission after watching a few VideoCopilot tutorials and pirating Optical Flares
- The subtle difference being OmniCorp is intended to be darkly humourous.detritus
- detritus, you mean like Starship Troopers? OH NOOOO!!randommail
- I understand that, but it's lacking even that. The ads in the old films were excellently done.animatedgif
- I'm talking more just art direction, one is generic and amateurish and the other is building a world.animatedgif

Looks interesting ... but there is a lot more to the classic original than this ^ here-we-go-again mix of CGI and gun porn. Will we get the humour, comments on corporate America etc etc or just another Rambo in a tin suit?

you know... i had hopes, but one pass of this trailer and it's clear they just pulled a template off the shelf and either ignored or re-engineered certain story elements to be 'safe'. and boring. he gets blown up by a car bomb? are you serious? the original was darker, more sinister and just depressing, but in a good way. it set the tone. this is kidz bop cg lollipop robocop.

I'll wait until it's out to pass judgement. But from what i've seen i'm actually pretty excited for this reboot.

Isn't DA working on some movie about Noah's ark? This trailer looks stupid like the new total recall but its just a trailer.

Looks like a basic update of the original (which, I too, loved). I hope it is darker and less "hollywood", but won't put my money on it.
I will put my money on that it is "ok" and entertaining, but nothing more.

It's not Darren Aronofsky, but José Padilha who did Elite Squad – which was pretty amazing.

^ Yes but this is not Brasil, and this is not his movie. This is a Hollywood producer movie, top to bottom.
So it's not going to be anything like Tropa de Elite.

If they play on the "illusion of choice" idea, as stated in the advert up there, this could be quite interesting, especially given the current climate...
