"RoboCop Returns" directed by Neill Blomkamp

[punisher1974]

Yes there is. Original is 15 tracks I believe and the expanded is 23 tracks. I picked it up a couple of years ago. Intrada did it first but I believe Milan records did a rerelease of it.

I’d rather have Nam

You ARE TheNam! Had to be sure.

Welcome back!


One door closes, another door opens...

No reason whatsoever for another sequel or reboot. In fact, the original film should have stood alone. But, this is the world we live in.

I dunno. The second could've been much worse. If that's the bar, despite Follywood's current track record, there's a slim possibility they could do it. Especially if Weller returns. Granted, it's as likely as someone with sciatic twitching threading a needle, but there are a small handful of sequels and reboots that've matched (and even surpassed) the originals.

Still love the original movie and The soundtrack is pure gold. That one and Conan the Barbarian are my 2 favorite Poledouris scores. Is it the expanded version? If so nice pick up.

Yup. I love it. I may have to get it on vinyl too.

Fury Road and the new Blade Runner are good examples, but as you say, those are the exceptions to the rule. Blomkamp. . .he made one good film I've seen. But there's always a chance.

I just wish Hollywood was more original. Do a Robocop only if a real artist, like George Miller, is passionate about it. Not because it is nostalgic, low hanging fruit for the execs.

I know Bane's Fury Road was a box office smash, but IMO, despite Miller, it failed to capture the magic of the originals (yes, even Thunderdome ). Max is Mel is Max. That and the bigger budget made it seem to the franchise what Land of the Dead seems to Romero's original trilogy. That said I thought Road Warrior was a better film than Mad Max, so the franchise still holds true to that. As for Blade Runner, while I thought it was highly pretentious, it was a solid sequel to the Final Cut of the original. Unfortunately, this franchise doesn't have that track record.

I look at it like a sympathy ****. WB's track record has been horrendous up until BvS. They turned Superman into Goku Black, did a decent job with BvS to bring him around and thankfully killed him off (Batman rescuing Martha was worth the price of admission alone). Wonder Woman was good. And Justice League did just about what it needed to do make it seem like the weakest of Morrison JLA stories (thank you Joss). But don't fret, with Affleck done with Batman after the solo outing, WB is looking to lock each respective hero in their own stories and forget about any continuity established prior to the Batman solo outing. So their suckage is consistent. I suspect this RoboCopout sequel will fair better than their DC franchise going forward.

FRAUD! PHONY! LIAR!!!!

That whole spiel about lackluster Fury Road and pretentious 2049 just went out the window of credibility.

Read the post above. We all have a sympathy **** in our bootybaskets.

Besides, don't you both like these new Star Wars sequels?

 

[Wor-Gar]

Besides, don't you ... like these new Star Wars sequels?

Ugh, please....

Yes, he does, especially TLJ, lol.

 

[Wor-Gar]

One day, Nam will learn the truth... and boy will this place burn.

 

[thenammagazine]

Ugh, please....

Currently reading your personal loathing in the TLJ thread.

Yes, he does, especially TLJ, lol.

Kinda feel like I've been cheating with the super hot, slutty girl at work, as Guardians of the Galaxy has been giving me my Star Wars fix.

 

[Khev]

Come on, now, the least you could do was cheat with your wife's sister (the SW standalones) and still keep it in the family.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Guardians is a much better 'Star Wars' than Star Wars has been lately.

Blomkamp has some cool short film projects he's been posting on his Youtube channel.

Holy sh--balls Nam is back. When did that happen?

After all the mayhem, bannings, and lost affiliation status with SSC Nam rose to the surface like Hooper at the end of JAWS, lol.

Nam: "IrishJedi?"

Wor-Gar: "No..."

Nam: "I used to hate this forum."

Wor-Gar: "I can't imagine why."

Nope. It's gonna be a remake of RubberCop.
