RoboCop (2014)

The reboot of the new RoboCop is looking good. Robo-who? If you were a kid of the '80s, you have definitely heard of RoboCop. Especially the Cop behind the Robo, Peter Weller, who may have invented the robot dance. Officer Alex J. Murphy reporting for duty!
In this new reboot, we see Joel Kinnaman taking the role of RoboCop. The story? It tells of how RoboCop came to be. Similar to the 1987 story, but a modern tell to it, and in black, as Michael Keaton said in the trailer.
Apart from that is the movement in the suit. Peter Weller mentioned in Ain't It Cool News that it was limited in movement. But in this new reboot, Kinnaman got the moves! Besides that is the gun. Everyone remember this, the gun holster on the side of the leg. It is just cool. The thing that makes RoboCop, RoboCop is how human yet robot he is. The look may change, but it's still RoboCop. And with a little (or a lot) of CGI magic, the movie is a giant leap in making it look real as to the original movie. If you have yet to watch the original movie, go to your nearest movie store and get a copy to watch, RoboCop 1, 2 and 3.
 And there's, of course, the improved, ED-209, the robot that goes up against RoboCop in the first movie. You could say, it got jealous when it was replaced with RoboCop ("oh man, this dude is taking my job"). I guess you can guess which is the original ED-209.
I'm looking forward for the movie, especially since I've played the tv game and watch the first 3 movies.
Here's the trailer to give you a taste of what to expect.
