‘Robocop’ Remake Script Details: Armor Upgrades, Al-Qaeda & Easter Eggs

This concept art is NOT the official armor that will appear in the film.

There have been a lot of questions about how, exactly, Brazilian director Jose Padilha will modernize the story of Robocop for his upcoming remake of Paul Verhoeven’s 1987 film. With the current international socio-political climate, and major advancements in technology (and our relationship with technology) there is seemingly much juicy material that can be mined for an interesting and relevant new take on the story.
Well, the Robocop (2013) script by relative newcomer Joshua Zetumer and Gran Torino screenwriter Nick Schenk has apparently leaked out, and some of the details about this new take on Alex Murphy/Robocop are sure to make fans of the classic version take up arms in protest.

Drew McWeeny from Hit Fix was the man to get his hands on the script, and took to Twitter to let the universe know how he felt about it. The folks over at Bleeding Cool did us the favor of compiling McWeeny’s tweets into a more serviceable transcript, which you can read below:

    I’ll share this one detail. In the film, when Murphy is turned into Robocop 1.0, it’s described “a high-tech version of the ’80s suit.”

    Then they show a focus group scene where criminals laugh at the design. “He looks like a toy from the ’80s!”

    So they redesign him to look “meaner” as Robocop 2.0, who passes focus group approval.

    So they not only make sure to include the original design, they also point out it’s dated and stupid. *facepalm*

    Hold onto your sides for more hilarious “Robocop” details. They outsource his construction to China. #seriously

    And we meet the ED-209s in the field in Iran, where they’re used to subdue suicide bombers. #ineedallthedrinksnow

    Ahhh… now they just dropped Robocop 3.0 onto an Al Queda training camp to see what he does.

    “He should be programmed to incapacitate in all scenarios.” “Agreed. Let’s keep him PG-13, Dr. Norton.” No. No. No. No.

    By page 54, they are already onto Robocop 4.0, who looks like a “cop on steroids painted metallic blue.”

    Oh, god… oh dear god… Robocop is a Transformer. He goes from “social mode” to “combat mode” and back. Full transformation..

    Okay… the two “best” lines in the script. First up is at the unveiling ceremony for Robocop in Detroit, from a TV reporter covering it.

    “I think it’s safe to say that Alex Murphy is now part man, part machine, ALL COP!” Yes, I too remember the original poster, asshat.

    If you can get past Robocop The Transformer, there are some interesting action beats. And I’m sure Padilla will direct the hell out of it.

    But overall? Ouch. Ouch. Ohpleasedon’t. Ouch. And a big side order of ouch.

  2. Have you ever seen what replicate the extreme sense
    of pleasure experienced when your partner's lips are around your penis. My favorite is the pioneering work by Schultz et al, than I would in several semesters of college. More directly I believed there were fetishes for artificial vagina, dick in general, ejaculation and so on. To those who don't
    believe me, grass jelly is flips the switch and lets us all try it out.
