MGM is hoping that all of the pro-Robocop news out in the world right now will push people to get their asses in theaters. With Peter Weller speaking to Detroit and them erecting a statue in the city, why not?
The original director for the reboot was to be Mr. Aronofsky who would have taken the series to new, if not strange, heights. Instead we’re to be treated to the American big box office debut of José Padilha (not the terrorist), who is riding high off of his highest grossing film in Brazil, Elite Squad 2. Which, if you haven’t seen it, is a damn fine movie.
Considering the massive amounts of fail that we had from Robocop 2 and Robocop 3, we should good to go as long as they manage to squeeze in a “I’d buy that for a dollar” somewhere.
I sit upon my throne as the owner/shogun of this site, WatchPlayRead. But it wasn't always so. I too have had blogspots, I've done other community blogs, I've even written professionally for other sites out there...yet none of them provided the content I had a real passion for.
It is then that I became tired of being a small cog in a big machine, and of writing about nothing but game news after game news article and the periphery that comes from such schlock, like knowing who Michael Pachter and Bobby Kotick are.
I decided to start MediaWhoreNetwork.com and ran up my post count there for about 2 years, commenting about any and everything that I wanted to. I even started a weekly podcast that I feel has come into its own.
It wasn't until earlier this year that I realized that having the word "whore" in your URL might be a bit limiting to my potential audience. I then made the website and its branding move over to WatchPlayRead.com.
