Why is it that this new robocop still has a single human hand...and nothing else? Did they really just put a scene entirely to just say "Screw you "Lose the Arm" scene from the original"?
It makes even less sense when you watch the film and realise that single human hand isn't actually connected to anything so why did they even bother keeping it in the first place.
For what it's worth I enjoyed it, it was alot better than I thought it would be. I wouldn't go as far as to say it's better than the original ( it is however better than the sequels ) but I also don't feel as if it were inferior to the original either ( and the original is fresh in my head since I watched that 2 days ago ). It does have it's flaws, it was missing an insane villain like the originals Clarence Boddicker and I find Michael Keaton to be far to likeable to be OCP's big chease ( for heavens sake the man was Batman and Beetlejuice, I'm not going to hate the guy. It does not help that he is also the splitting image of my older brother Paul who is the coolest guy on the planet ).
The big difference between the 2 films is that in the original Alex Murphy is declared KIA, OCP erases all his memories and he is treated as product. The original is essentially a story about him regaining his humanity. In the 2014 remake. He is badly injured ( suffers 3rd and 4th degree burns, amputated arm and both legs, blind in one eye and deaf ) and in a coma, OCP tells his wife that they can fix him if she consents to the Robocop project, Alex Murphy wakes up and retains all his old memories, he is aloud to continue interacting with his wife and kids and everyone knows who he is and what he has been through. The remake is more a story abouth the morals and ethics of what OCP do Alex Murphy.
