Robocop Trailer: Why, Hollywood, Why?

Here’s the trailer for the Robocop remake. Be warned: You cannot unwatch it.

Yeah, it’s got everyone from Samuel L Jackson to Michael Keaton in it. It’s also got that exact same gloss and sheen that made the Total Recall remake appear entirely fake, and nowhere near enough of a satirical edge for my tastes. It’s entirely possible to make a good remake, but… eww.

Am I the only one that wanted Robocop to still be essentially gritty?
