Recently released online, this RoboCop licensing reel gives us the low-down on the overall tone and feel of the movie, while visual designers show off some of their concept artwork for a more silver-looking suit, the OmniCorp offices and RoboCop 1.0. The sizzle reel doesn't feature any actual footage from the movie, although it is still a must-see.

MARVELPSYCHO79 - 11/16/2012, 11:54 AM
I wonder how much the budget is for this movie.If his helmet assembles in the movie just like it does in that concept art that will look badass onscreen.
Parker2017 - 11/16/2012, 11:58 AM
I love the bussniess side and tenchicial stand point of thew industry it's going to make fun of. it sounds and this short really looks interesting.

If they were going to do a Robocop then they may have done better to restart the entire mythology not attempt to retell the original.
The original is near perfect. The effects still hold up except for the shot of Dick Jones falling to his death. They used a stop motion puppet and the arms were waaaay to long.

The best move wouldve been to have a near original story with entirely new characters.
THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - 11/16/2012, 12:10 PM
So in the beginning of the film his suit is going to look awesome and then they are going to change it so it looks stupid...
Tony93 - 11/16/2012, 12:10 PM
the first design in the pics looks awesome!
TheAlexLynch - 11/16/2012, 12:13 PM
@Darkmetal in a way, this is a restart to the entire mythology, but it takes elements of the original. Its like if you were making a Spider-Man reboot, you kept the elements that made it Spider-Man like Uncle Ben's deaht, Peter Parker, etc. I've read a revision of the script and it's really different from the original!

still not digging the black armor, keeping an open mind. Love the silver look
sackboy1991 - 11/16/2012, 12:23 PM
@TheAlexLynch is there a way you can show me the script, I'd love to read it.

And is it just me, or does any one else prefer the "MARK 1" design compared to the the black one they end up with. and I understand why he has a human hand, but its just so distracting. i hope some where in the film it get blown off. but i like the sound of this film. iv got high hopes. but that being said, i had high hopes for amazing spider-man and we all know what went on there.
nerdman81 - 11/16/2012, 12:24 PM
If the suit actually looks more like that in the movie than what we have already seen thus far, it won't be so bad. Still wish they'd cover that stupid bare hand. That takes me right out of the robotic side, and makes him appear to just be a guy in a robot suit. If they wanted a remaining human element to be shown, they have his mouth. The hand isn't necessary, and pretty retarded. That's really my only complaint.
DioFoRio - 11/16/2012, 12:31 PM
what's a Row-Butt?
superotherside - 11/16/2012, 12:38 PM
Wow, bout time I guess I watch those films... :)
MARVELPSYCHO79 - 11/16/2012, 12:46 PM
@superotherside You have never seen any of the Robocop films?!?!If you haven't seen any,just watch the first two.The third movie was a piece of SHIT!!!!!!
Spidey91 - 11/16/2012, 12:57 PM
what was wrong with the first design?! that one looks 1000% more awesome.
AkshunJaksun - 11/16/2012, 1:13 PM
@ Nomis SUCK IT.
AlexDeLarge87 - 11/16/2012, 1:13 PM
That concept is [frick]ing perfect. To bad they change it to the black one.
Newbus - 11/16/2012, 1:15 PM
Exactly they should have stuck with the first design and not the stealth fighter look.
Niem8211 - 11/16/2012, 1:18 PM
What the [frick] don’t you supporting idiots get --- He has a real hand -- how many times did old RoBo get totally [frick]ed up????? With a real hand he can break it lose a finger, shit even if be bangs it against the other robot he is fighting it is going to get screwd up bad... Unless they make him not get messed up? That was the best thing about him being a cyborg --- he was [frick]ing indestructible -- now he is going to be in a bomb and what is he going to lose his hand, will it be burnt or maybe he will just have a skid on it and it will bleeds??? What a [frick]ing joke
Optimus83 - 11/16/2012, 1:18 PM
¡¡¡Good Concept Arts!!!. ...Iron Robocop jajajaajajjaj
Azrael725 - 11/16/2012, 2:00 PM
WHY DIDN'T THEY GO WITH THIS DESIGN?? so much better than what we've seem so far. this looks like a robotic suit. the black suit we've seen looks rubbery and plastic and obviously a guy in a suit.
TheAlexLynch - 11/16/2012, 2:03 PM
^the design will be in the movie. There are four different RoboCop suits he wears. This will be featured for AT LEAST 20 minutes.
fullmoon106 - 11/16/2012, 2:32 PM
Looks very cool. I like both of those suits. The human hand looks weird, but maybe it gets removed at some point in the film? I also like the new ED-209 designs. I'm really excited about this movie. I love the original and Jose Padhilla's Elite Squad movies, so I'm very interrested in seeing how this works out.
Parker2017 - 11/16/2012, 2:38 PM
@TheAlexLynch wait 4 suits? So its showing the evolusion to the final design, but if you read a re-write of the script , do you think its good or bad? I think the new suit looks Amazing!! if they make him going more and more robotic and they seem to be honnoring and restarting the mythos. kinda like the new TMNT :3
Parker2017 - 11/16/2012, 2:40 PM
@ everyone whose complaining about the human hand. SHUT THE [frick] UP JACKASSES! its called CONCEPT ART for a reason. it looks really good so far and i can;t wait.
Alchemist - 11/16/2012, 2:52 PM
"Hey guys, I've got a great idea, lets start off with an amazing suit which will be a take on the original 1980's silver and black design, which looks great, and then, lets turn it all black and boring, and make him look like a G.I-Batman Joe kinda dude with a weird tiny human hand, that way, the toys won't sell either because the figures will look incredibly generic and boring and black, did I mention that about the black? Anyways, yeah, it won't look anything like Robocop anymore and more like Super G.I JoeRoboBatSwat team man so kids won't even know what the hell it is and the toys will end up in the 99p basket in Forbidden Planet!
Alchemist - 11/16/2012, 2:56 PM
Well, they can make their new crappy rubber-weird-human-hand Bogocop movie if they want, it will never match up to the Original, why? Because it was O.R.I.G.I.N.A.L, a word that Hollywood seems to have forgotten the meaning of.
jimoakley666 - 11/16/2012, 3:05 PM
Hmmm. Looks a hell of a lot more promising. Need some official stills though.
GUNSMITH - 11/16/2012, 3:15 PM

CharacterAssassin - 11/16/2012, 3:23 PM
Hopefully they go with the Metallic and Black as the final product. Looks way better and believe it or not, the metallic gives it more Character than just the plain black.
koala0226 - 11/16/2012, 3:34 PM
I knew he would look cooler in silver...
TheAmarilloBlack - 11/16/2012, 3:48 PM
That's right Mr. Koala! (feeds eucalyptus) ^_^
nerdman81 - 11/16/2012, 3:56 PM
@Parker2017-You need to up your meds, and pay attention dude. Yeah, what you're seeing up there is called concept art, but he is actually going to have a bare hand in the movie. Hope I'm not going too fast for you. Before you come around telling other people they need to STFU, maybe you should make sure you have something not retarded, and worth opening your mouth for.
Fearless - 11/16/2012, 4:25 PM
Looks awesome! Can't wait. Just hope they DON't include some gay dude in the movie just like almost every movies these days. That'll ruin the movie for me.
BANE5000 - 11/16/2012, 4:40 PM
The first pic of Robo is how the suit should look in the film, looks like a great update of the original...heres to hoping
BANE5000 - 11/16/2012, 4:42 PM
Damn video wont show...anyone got another link i can try?
sameoldthing - 11/16/2012, 4:44 PM
Should have gone with silver in the color of armor.

Hate the sleek look,the original was best because he was like a friggin tank!
Big & powerful..i bet in the new one he will do flips & somersaults.

So far,looks lame.
siggisuperman - 11/16/2012, 6:18 PM
@Fearless a gay dude in the movie will ruin it for you ? For someone called fearless you are very homophobic.
riseofLOGANX36 - 11/16/2012, 6:35 PM
Why dose he have one hormal hand? Everything about this looks likes shit. Why don't they just for one night bring back robocop in the movies?!?! This is what you get from stupid remakes, a beast that looks like a cat, spider-man's suit looks like a basket ball with gay slippers, a ganaric shitty look freddy kruger, a point less friday the 13th, the enterprise with teens and a puny scrawny robocop. Remakes should of stopped with texis chainsaw and holloween.

UNTIL next time TRUE BELIEVERS!
CharacterAssassin - 11/16/2012, 7:23 PM
@riseofLoganx36... it's probably to keep/save a part of him that's still human. Besides, just in case his nuts itches in the suit he needs at least one warm hand to scratch it.
riseofLOGANX36 - 11/16/2012, 7:35 PM
@CharacterAssassin I wont by that for a dollar! :D

UNTIL next time TRUE BELIEVERS!
Jolt17 - 11/16/2012, 11:01 PM
I'm still enraged with this decision they went with in the script - which apparently is the first draft, anyway, but I doubt there will be any significant change in the final product either - but...well, it's better than nothing, at least!



The above concept art is the perfect example of how you're supposed to recreate the classic armor, and I'm glad to know that we're most likely getting to see it on the screen, regardless of its minimum screen time.

Here's to hoping the RoboCop 4.0 will not make me regret for supporting this movie.
Jolt17 - 11/16/2012, 11:04 PM
Oh, anyway...has anyone downloaded the video? It's been removed before I have the chance to see it for myself.
MOSESivviOC - 11/17/2012, 12:09 AM
FOR THOSE STILL LOOKING. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xv5keb_robocop-featurette-concept-art-licensing-sizzle-reel-vo-hq_shortfilms#.UKc7hoYvkcM
MOSESivviOC - 11/17/2012, 12:11 AM
Was digging the suit shown in the set pics prior, but now that i've seen the Silver suit, it makes it hard to defend the former. Silver looks 1,000x better, all the way! DON'T fUHCK THIS UP, HOLLYWOOD.
KingEmperor - 11/17/2012, 1:31 AM
I think I'm liking the updated look, though it should have been bigger in the chest armor area to look more intimidating.
