The Johnny 5 "ROBERT COP TWOOOO!" reveal gets me every time. "BEHAVE YOURSELVES!"
"Dead or alive I'll be back."

Our RoboCop Remake is a crowd-sourced film project based on the 1987 Paul Verhoeven classic. Connected through various filmmaking channels (including Channel 101) we're 50 filmmakers (amateur and professional) from Los Angeles and New York who have split the original RoboCop into individual pieces and have remade the movie ourselves. Not necessarily a shot-for-shot remake, but a scene-for-scene retelling. As big fans of the original RoboCop, and as filmmakers and film fans admittedly rolling our eyes at the Hollywood remake machine, we've elected to do this remake thing our own way.

Things pick up after the first 20 mins. There are some incredibly sad moments of a lonely RoboCop : /

Haha yeah thats my reaction to these remarks too Its just sad people grow up thinking THATS THE Spider-man.
Vodnak said:That is Spiderman, I'm sorry you don't agree. But the movie is titled Spiderman, and Tobey Maguire happens to play Peter Parker who just so happens to be Spiderman. It's got Spiderman written all over it.
Vodnak said:But I'll still take it over Andrew Garfield as The Amazing Spiderman any day. Agree to disagree I guess.
Griffith said:Yep, the name of those movies was definitely Spider-Man... case closed? My problem with the Raimi/Maguire interpretation is there's too much emphasis on his nerd angst, even when he's possessed by the symbiote and should be a total badass he's still a loser:

SPIDER-MAN!
Aazealh said:This makes you sound like you have a mental problem.
Aazealh said:There's quite a difference between saying the Raimi movies were less bad than these and "Tobey Maguire is and always will be Spiderman". For someone who's been reading the comics since he's a kid I'd expect you pictured Peter Parker as less of a doofus in your head.
Vodnak said:I'm amazed at the amount of criticism I'm receiving over a very uncontroversial comment I made. I just so happen to like the original trilogy. That's it, why am I being probed for that? Lol.
Walter said:I think a lot of us are just surprised that anyone liked Dopey McGuire's sleepy portrayal of an otherwise rambunctious superhero. Much less someone who adamantly opposes anyone else taking up the mantle.
I haven't seen Amazing Spider-Man, but I'm pretty much over Marvel movies at this point... I thought Garfield's performance seemed pretty accurate to the comics in the trailers I've seen though .

Deci said:Foxx's Electro looks like a lot of fun though! And Giamatti's Rhino should be equally so, at least.
Deci said:I really enjoyed Garfield as Spider-Man and Peter Parker,
His Spider-Man 100% at least.
Johnstantine said:It was for Spidey, but not Peter. That was my only beef with the movie: Peter was way too socially awkward.
this is obviously the Ultimate universe and I think I like it more.
Also, the Ultimate version of Green Goblin is horrendous.
Griffith said:Also, it's disappointing to see how CGI reliant that scene was (it's basically a cartoon) considering the last movie very effectively made use of more practical effects for Spider-Man and it looked good.
Deci said:I have to admit that my inner child is excited. There's a special place in my heart for those dudes, and I even collected a TMNT comic by Image from '96-'99. It was black and white with art by Frank Fosco, though on the covers the turtles all had the classic red head bands. It was pretty graphic and dark stuff. Blood, dismemberment, one of the turtles even lost an eye, another lost a hand, etc.
Deci said:Too bad Hollywood can't adapt that story. It always bugged me, even as a kid, that the turtles use lethal weapons like swords and sai's, yet no real blood or gore was ever shown in the movies or cartoons, games, etc. The comics weren't shy about it.
Deci said:The one thing that might be cool about Bay's vision, is Shredder. I know it's pretty sacrilegious he's not Japanese (I wonder if his name is even Oroku Saki), but Fichtner is a decent actor. The garb is very close to the comic I read too.
