Robocop's flesh parts are still flesh and I think if there was any reality to it he should be looking older also. 60 year old Robocop. I don’t see any reason why Weller can’t reprise the role.

I grew up watching rated R movies Robocop and I will always have a special place in my heart for it. It's a good movie, a damn good movie in fact. Great story, great action, clever dialogue, and plenty of blood and guts to boot. As if that wasn't enough, the movie was a brilliant social satire. I think the wit and sense of humor would be lost in the translation, as it was in the two sequels. Honestly I don’t think there should be a new Robocop.

I agree, Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor could definitely get the exploitation satire right for RoboCop, while giving action fans their adrenaline and the studio a box office hit. Good choice(s). I'd love to see those guys do a sequel to The Last Boy Scout too, but only if Shane Black wrote the screenplay. And only if pigs with wings smoked pot, too, yeah, I know. @ Clarence RoboCop: Dubai Vacation? I'm sold. @ orange cinema

“maybe a islamic robocop”

Or better yet… Murphy is in the world trade center, We see the scene where the terrorist literally fly a plane into Murphy…( Topping the shot gun scene of the first film)… and they find his carcass in the rubble and rebuild him and send him to Afghanistan to find Osama bin Laden. But then after a while in the sun with time to think…..Robo cop realizes that the terrorists who flew the plane into the world trade center were actually from Saudi Arabia and Robo-Cop goes on a bad ass fact finding mission that leads him back to the White House….
In the final battle , Robo cop Corners Dick Chaney in the white house and says..

“Come quietly or there will be… trouble.”

Dick Cheney shoot’s Robo-Cop point blank in the face with a shotgun..

As Robo Cop lies on the floor …Cheney says…

“I AM Osama Bin Laden!” and pulls back his mask ( like Tom Cruise in mission impossible )

I would pay to see that.

But then again they might realise that kids are getting older faster and release something with the same tone as the first two. Nowadays, the younger audience might not think the first 2 Robocop films were ultraviolent. It was when I was younger and I'm only 26. Good Point!

Hopefully much like Die Hard 4, when they release it on DVD it will be unrated with plenty of "F" bombs. Yippie-ki-yah Motherf....you get the point.
