Why does Robocop have military training?

The whole point of the film is that he is a cop that is now a cyborg...........ugh this film is going to suck hard.

Maybe it's military training before the main character becomes robocop? Do we even have the main characters name? I haven't seen it posted, if not then all you can call him is robocop.

Hey Michael Keaton's back! He's just been cast as the villain in Jose Padilha's Robocop remake. He will replace Hugh Laurie who was previously in negotiations to join the film before they broke down. Clive Owen was also reportedly on the studio's short list for the role, but it looks like Keaton won out.

Michael is the final addition to the amazing cast we have assembled for this film and it is so great to have the last puzzle piece in place. It is thrilling that everything has come together to bring this innovative new vision of RoboCop to life. We?ve got a great script, a great cast, some killer ED-209s and I can?t wait to get Alex Murphy back on the streets.

Hopefully it will be good. I hated the fact that they changed the actor in number 3. Peter Weller played the best Robocop. Hopefully Joel Kinnaman will do a good job. But after Peter Weller's performance, I doubt it. Peter Weller made that part what it was. Then the awful TV series was just a joke.

No. Just no. Actually, just STOP. Stop ruining classics! We don't need another remake, let alone another terrible one. Total Recall was garbage, this will be garbage.

That is all Ballywood can do anymore is remake older movies.

    • Hey Google, these are the Gemini features I want in 2026

      By Snake Doc · Posted

      I used a Pixel 10 Pro XL when it first came out for about 8 months. When I first got it, it was using Google assistant and that was fast, when asking it to call somone etc. Then it automatically switched with some update to Gemini. Doing even the simplist of things like asking it to call someone in my contacts was soooooo slow compared to Google assistant. I guess it had to go out to the cloud to do that? Back on iPhone and while Siri is dumb right now, it does do those simple things, like call someone, set a timer, star the stop watch etc, really fast. That an while I like Google Material Design 3 over iOS 26, they Pixel 10 Pro XL was so slow in comparison to the iPhone 17 Pro I am using.
