Robocop Reboot Gets Viral Video and Concept Art

Chances are, you have a great deal of apprehensive when it comes to seeing one of your favorite films rebooted, rehashed, and remade. Rightfully so, since this pattern of revitalizing franchises that have long since passed doesn’t seem to be coming to an end any time soon. All that’s left to do is embrace it, I’m afraid.

On the other hand, take a look at this new viral trailer. Coupled with the fairly awesome concept art on the OmniCorp website that was launched this year, and this film isn’t shaping up to be quite as bad as many fans had anticipated. And how could it? With documentary filmmaker José Padilha directing, and living legends Gary Oldman and Samuel L. Jackson attached to the cast, how can it go wrong?

Well, in a lot of ways, actually. Regardless of any internet hype, the only real way our questions can be answered is by waiting patiently until the films release. Sit pretty until August 2013, friends. It’s going to be a long wait.
