As a basic plot it has lots of opportunity for commentary, color, fun and excitement, because this is what the original had in spades. The plot will be familiar to anyone who has seen the original film (and if you haven't, you should) as we have a cop, near death, selected for a program of integrating robot drones with organic (human) material to make it more acceptable to be on the streets of the US as law enforcement. This is also the reason it appears to have been remade – because the target audience really isn't anyone over 25 years old. I have seen the original film quite some time ago now and for sure I wondered why they would remake something that is a shade over 25 years old, but I certainly wasn't up in arms as if it was blasphemy – ultimately it is just another product to be sold and brand recognition is going to give you a good base to your marketing. When I saw that Robocop had been remade (or rebooted maybe?) my feeling was one of apathy.
