I'm not sure. I think both robocop, and total recall, could be done well. But that is the crux, they would need to be done justice, else don't do it

Re: Films for 2012
Have to agree, some films are best left alone, I watched Robocop the other night on Netflix, still a great film

Re: Films for 2012
Nope, I might agree with casablanca as a classic, not with robocop...but...to each their own

Re: Films for 2012
Don't know about the Robocop remake, it's sounding a bit pants already with the making it more about the person and them thinking/feeling about becoming a machine.

Re: Films for 2012
Didn't know they were remaking robocop until reading this thread . . can't see it being up to much for all who have grown up with the originals but . . we will see I will give it a chance when it comes out.
Looking forward to the new batman film the dark knight rises and the avengers too!

Re: Films for 2012
Yes The Dark Knight Rises and The Avengers are films that look very promising judging by the trailors

Yeah, I found it a but dull to start with as well, it did eventually get going a bit, but I think it could have been shortened, and livened up a bit.
I saw Mirror Mirror last week, that was quite entertaining, 7/10.
