Yo Robo

Shamelessly pilfered from IMDB:

Robocop is returning to the big screen - 15 years after the cyborg crimefighter handed over his badge and gun.

Filmmaker Darren Aronofsky - famous for movies Pi and Requiem for a Dream - has signed on to direct the fourth installment of the franchise, reports Daily Variety.

The movie, a 'noir' take on the story about a murdered cop who is brought back to life as a robot, is slated for a 2010 release.

Bring back Frank Miller, if nothing else.

Is there a place where one can purchase a Robocop costume?

That's what the internet is for.

Edit: And now I shall add some actual content to this post.

As a Robocop fan, I'm in the same mood as Watchmen fans are at the moment. I'm excited, but I don't want them to f*ck it up.

The first one was good, the second one was good too, the third one trailed off a bit in terms of style, but it kept with the general theme and wasn't one of those movie sequels that fans completely disown, it was still a good movie, better in some ways.

Now that they've left it for 15 years, I'm worried it's going to be crap. They need a Robocop fan to do this movie, they need someone who doesn't give a shit about CGI, they need someone who knows how to do violence, gore, and creepy rapist drug dealers.

The last thing that was awesome and classic like this that was revived after a long hiatus was Doctor Who and, well, we all know how that turned out, don't we?
