I don't recall vegas' own assessment being overly negative. But it certainly wasn't positive either. I think it mostly neutral though he did give some thoughts as I expected he would and indeed that weren't glowing but at least he actually saw something. I think it was a fair assessment and certainly shouldn't be dismissed. Sure everyone has opinions but forgive me if I put a bit more stock in vegasrobo than some other Joe Nobody on the internet who may or not have been there and may or may not more more stake in having a positive opinion published.

I don't count them so much - they are professionals that are getting paid, they may have a stake in having positive opinions and may not actually care about whether the film is good or not. I can't trust their views that much. If you want to fine, but again, vegas doesn't have any stake or influence on his view other than wanting a good film and showing of RoboCop, same as the rest of us. _________________ I don't wanna pay that, PhotoBucket.

Thanks Stan,Yeah,You know it was real hard for me not to fall into the hate thing after seeing the Trailer,Thats why I tried to hit on the good points as I saw it of the trailer,Again it's my opinion,And it's hard to be super descriptive of something you saw to help someone else paint a picture of what you had seen from an objective point of view..But I can tell you factually that Hall H crowd did not react with the zeal that's been claimed here.It was a very flat reaction,Here's an example the frickin Veronica Mars panel got a stronger reaction then Robo..Now many week's later and the lack of the release of that "trailer" at SDCC I'm wondering if that was fully completed material they showed it was definitely in trailer form..

Fair enough. But the same critics love to tear films a new one if footage disappoints.
Judging from the responses a lot of neutral people entered and expected a trainwreck. Wasn't much released before CC and lots of negative buzz like the new robocop was some sort of rubber batman ninja. Then when they exited they said it didn't look bad and sounded like an interesting take on the character. I don't think there would be any mercy whatsoever if it did look bad. So many online critics that get more hits for being negative. If given a chance to totally throw something under the bus I don't think they will hold back just because it's Robocop.

Why in the name of GOD did they ditch Bale ? I'd get Keaton if that was possible but Bale is without doubt the next best thing. |
Probably because Bale doesn't want to be typecast and spend the rest of his life being Batman! He's actually been Batman in more films than anyone else now...

Why do you have to drag everything into a comparison with the new Robocop ? We get it, we REALLY do...You love whatever Pad'omighty is working on, fine, no need to bring it to every single post people make.....Just saying.... |
If I'm not mistaken this is a Robocop forum, and this thread is about the new Robocop film, the trailer in particular. It'd be a bit silly if we where talking about anything but Robocop wouldn't it!
On the trailer issue, I'm not knocking Vegas at all, but his assessment of the footage and trailer is the only negative one I can find. Everybody else has been quite positive about it. As I say, no disrespect Vegas, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and I don't have one on the matter yet because I haven't seen the trailer for myself, but there's been plenty of positive noises to suggest that it may actually be okay! |
There's one thing to talk about the new movie and another to try and make Padomighty GOD amongst directors and also so far we've seen a B-Rated actor get nominated for the awards in his role as Robocop by some people in here (or at least based on the things they say about him that's the basic point), if you don't see how irrational that is well i don't know what to say.
PS : On a sidenote WHEN did we see a trailer (especially of a sci-fi movie) that actually SUCKED ? Last time i checked most trailers showcase the best moments of a movie to attract audiences and not the other way around.

I don't know why we even bother talking to these 2-3 people when they have admited that this is more like a personal crusade to support padomighty and not so much the movie itself. I mean just look at the reply Saasouza posted above, whatever any of us says that doesn't "fit" their "agenda" is either considered as Trolling or as being negative towards the movie for no reason at all (when there are numerous reasons based on what we've seen so far but ok).

Considering you've being absent in this topic since the beggining and therefore failing to provide any new light on what we've been discussing i think it's pretty arrogant to jump here just to criticize people talking about the very subject this topic was opened for. If you're not a troll them you must be dumb.

so Beer reposting his Elysium flop stuff and CrimeDoesNotPay goes on about some Padomighty. Weak sauce. It's 2013. You expect higher quality. No one's gonna get upset from that. It's only sad.
I don't feel like defending Elysium is needed. It was a kickass movie.
Defending Padilha? He's not gonna care that some random internet guy(s) doesn't like him.
So what about contributing to the topic and if not having anything to contribute with I don't think Padomighty and his brazilian thugs are in your house forcing you to read the thread. If the buttpain is to big, make yourself a favor and stay away from the reboot threads, easy solution

Still not sure how somebody can be excited that an R-Rated Sci Fi film that's actually pretty good is a flop after being released for a month!!
Robovegas, on another note, I owe you an apology, re-read you're description of the trailer and it appears that I've been a bit of a mong in saying that you where negative about it! No hard feelings eh?

Just when i though we're getting to a next level here The idiotic behaviour in this board went overboard once again.. After having topics opened under my name, edited posts, PM disabled, now someone from the ultra biased moderation of this forum once again broke into my account and altered the comment line in my profile. I must have hit a nerve somewhere cause this must have been the ultimate, cheapest attempt to harm me here and yes, whoever did that is just a chicken shit coward that refused to fight with equal terms. Kind of tired of that and i guess next time i'm leaving for good.. don't really want to take part in that anymore
