They are remaking Robocop?

For the love of god why? Sure you can take the premise and do a much more mature take on it and expect audiences to appreciate it these days, but most people who would try and see it have heard of Robocop already and will be going for the same reason they watched it behind their parent's backs when they were nine: the gore and ultra-violence, and completely retarded disasters caused by retarded people.

Also, I remember a lot of CG in Robocop, in fact, I remember CG rendered at around 5 frames per second in Robocop which made it very jarring and out of place. We also had the main character with fantastic costume design and makeup, but there was still bad CG, generally in whatever cheesy robot was being fought near the end of the movie.

Anyway back on topic, my main issue with the hateon for CG, is that makeup and prosthetics do have a very finite amount they can do. Safely that is. If you want to do those bulging changing muscles without CG, you have to use some form of self expanding packet, unless you can hide a hose very well. Those explode, not often but it happens. There's also just simple things like maybe a monster design that doesn't fit human morphology very well, unless you offscreen it and have a CG monster (and that monster will be CG, machines can only do so much, and they generally will look robotic) you will only get a very limited first signs done in makeup, which generally is even MORE annoying than a full offscreen.
