"Robocop"

The classic: The masterful Paul Verhoeven-directed satire about a resurrected cop fighting crime in Detroit is a commentary on America’s thirst for violence, the disappearance of industry and the death of the American City. And robo-trousers.
The update: The film—which might be a sequel, might be a remake, or might be a trendy "reboot"—will be helmed by “The Fountain” and “Requiem for a Dream” director Darren Aronofsky, who (we're just guessing here) will focus on Robocop’s previously unexamined smack addiction.
