		<description><![CDATA[MGM recently moved down a gear on Robocop IV that Darren Aronofsky had been busy developing for nearly 12 months, pushing back it's release date from 2010 to the summer of 2011. But with every black cloud there is a silver lining somewhere, as the delay has allowed The Wrestler director to enjoy a brief window of opportunity to resurrect a long gestered project.

First announced in January 2007 as a Universal picture before they balked at the project, the supernatural thriller Black Swan has just attached Natalie Portman for the lead role, an actress Aronofsky has long courted.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, he seems focused on this being his next movie if he can find studio backing before the end of the year. 



Described as carrying the same tone as The Others, Aronofsky's movie follows Portman...
"as a veteran ballerina who finds herself locked in a competitive situation with a rival dancer, with the stakes and twists increasing as the dancers approach a big performance. But it's unclear whether the rival is a supernatural apparition or if the protagonist is simply having delusions". 
Which makes me wonder if I had ever paid to see a movie about a ballerina before, I really don't think I have.

		<title>Darren Aronofsky&#8217;s ROBOCOP is actually a sequel?</title>

		<description><![CDATA[The suddenly mainstream Darren Aronofsky may infact be looking to build his newly assigned task of resurrecting the Robocop franchise as a in continuity sequel, rather than a remake.


Bloody Disgusting have heard that the movie will be set twenty years after the termination of the Robocop program. The series is also being moved from Detroit to Los Angeles and that talks between Phoenix Pictures and MGM are at an advanced stage.

Again, this Aronofsky continues to fascinate me. A social commentary and artistic Robocop movie would be something to behold indeed. Or will it be a straight edged flick, can he even do a straight forward movie?

But I know one thing. Give me a twenty years later set sequel anyday over a Paul W.S. Anderson adaptation of Robocop vs. Judge Dredd or something along those lines. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Buried, almost hidden away in that article from The Hollywood Reporter discussing the Red Dawn remake comes this quote which completely slipped me by but thankfully both AICN and /Film picked up on it...
Parent and MGM chairman and CEO Harry Sloan announced the "Red Dawn" remake -- along with a big-budget rebuild of "RoboCop," which director Darren Aronofsky among others has recently been in to discuss -- in May at the Festival de Cannes.
Has Aronofsky been taking crack or is he hurt over the critics totally bashing his last movie The Fountain?

He is already doing a movie titled The Wrestler which we expected him to follow-up with a movie about a boxer titled The Fighter... and now he is eyeing a RoboCop remake? When did he go all mainstream on us?

 You may remember at the turn of the Millennium, way before Christopher Nolan landed the Batman gig... a certain Darren Aronofsky had met with Warner Bros. and handed in his very different, dark and grim take of Batman which he adapted from Frank Miller's Year One. It was a pretty obvious reaction to Batman &#38; Robin - a movie so filled with McDonald's colours that he went in a ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Not sure why they bother with these teaser posters because they are so rushly put together and often are completely different to the final product that you can't help but feel that no publicity is sometimes the best publicity.

At the NY Licensing Expo in New York, a teaser poster for MGM's remake of RoboCop was on display for all to see...

MGM's remake looks to have also been given the tentative release of 2010 but as far as we know no director has been set as of yet.

REALLY crappy poster!

REALLY crappy idea for a remake!

		<description><![CDATA[Peter Weller looks like an android. On the surface he has movie star good looks - tall, blue eyes, square jaw - but examine him closer and you’ll see none of it seems to fit. His face is taut and angular, his eyes are set deep in his skull and his skin looks like it’s made out of moulded plastic. His voice too is monotone and nasal – he reads lines like it’s in his programming. He was made to play Robocop (1987).




As Alex Murphy, the police officer executed by street hoods and then resurrected as a mechanical super cop, Weller gives a commanding performance. He stomps through the streets of Old Detroit like a technological knight in shining armour; his cyborg body moving with maximum efficiency, his chrome body reflecting the neon lights of a broken city.

“DEAD OR ALIVE,” he utters to criminals in an unemotive, basso voice. “YOU’RE COMING WITH ME.”

But he doesn’t just play Robocop, he becomes him totally. For the film he seems to shut down whatever makes him Peter Weller and reboots an android psychology. With his eyes hidden, he had to learn to act with his body, training for months with a mime artist ...]]></description>
