Directive 1: Serve the public trust....

Robocop was the first 18 rated movie I ever saw, I must have been around 11 or 12 at the time (VHS FTW) and it's one of those films that's stuck with me over the years.  The sequels & spin offs were largely forgettable but Paul Verhoeven's modern day messianic story is, to me at least, one of the greatest science fiction films of all time and certainly (imho) is his best work.

So fast forward 25 years and Robo is getting a reboot, I'm normally cynical about such things but the cast looks good, and if this teaser is anything to go by, the new film is going to have the same kind of vibe as the old one - count me in as being a little bit excited...
