Interesteing. But the article was almost from a year ago. With the way things have gone this year I'm sure the idea has been scrapped or put on the back burner. But if it ever does happen then fuck yes.
Maybe they could have use the black suit for a different character. Could have been a cyborg bad guy sharing the same characteristics of Robocop which would have been badass.
Reaperwing47 but him wearing the black suit signifies that he was under the influence of bad guys. Bringing the silver one back at the end kinda signifies that he is once again the good robocop we all know and love.
They did this in one of the Robocop series or movies (not part of the major three films) back in the day. He had a friend that was a cop and went through the same process as Murphy. Forget the name but you should be able to google it if you are interested.
+MightySavagE The silver suit was there just to pay homage to the original, But they wanted there black suit to have it's own look, But it looked like any other generic super hero... It was crap

If they wanted fast, they should've just built an EM208 like in 4:40 and animated it like the fx team in Chappy did. RoboCop was supposed to be heavy because of the life support system built in instead of just baterries, circuitry boards and chips. It's what made the original suit badass, because it had the vulnerability of human organs enhanced and protected by mechanical parts. It was meant to be a tank.
Fan of both movies, and props you guys did a great updated and modernized version. V1 definitely looked better and I loved the gray coloring you used for it, as this actually looked a lot better than the R2/R3 fiberglass versions. Your effects were the strongest part of the movie IMHO.
Deathbrewer I see where you goimf probably why i do support robocop reboot design movie but made me not that interested. But time i like the new look for an alternative design of it
Man. They should consider to have a sequel.. this was a great movie. Is bad that people dont recognize and appreciate the great effort and great effects. Please make another one.
I liked this movie a lot. And I mean A LOT. I thought it was a great take on the original source material and Joel did an amazing job in the role. Anyone agree?
Absolutely Love this! nobody ever dislikes a peek behind the curtain!! I love to see the driving force behind what makes a movie work! awesome, thanks again.
Haha agreed! It still bums me out every time i think about this remake! How on earth do you F that up when you've frekking NAILED the silver updated suit!?
Wow I guess I was the only guy who liked it. I didn't go in expected Robocop 6 or whatever. I saw it as a reboot and for what it was I was entertained. But as far as visuals I think the team did a truly amazing job!
i respect and love the way of making the suit. For me personal: i didn't like the first design of the (19th century) Robocop suit. But 2014 remake. I frickin LOVE!!!
Looks like a bat man suit with out the cape, heck with the stunts. The old Robocop was actually more robotic and more intimidating. Especially with the sound affects, loved it when the new suit came off and the old suit was put back on, awesome touch at the end.
This movie could have been so good. I feel like the suit creators did a phenomenal job w/ making a modernized Robocop suit. If only they'd been directed to make Robo look more beefy... more like a ROBOT... rather than a sleek man in a suit.
I couldn't agree more. In art the first thing we recognize is shape. If you were to look at a silhouette of the original Robo then look at one of the modernized version, the one that would be more intimidating, more robotic would be the original. The newer one? Not so much intimidating, and not very robotic feeling. It has a greater sense of man, not machine.
*_+StopWhatYerDoing_* The plot was set on future, they had to be realistic. Robotics technology is developing fast. I think the suit was perfect. The only thing the movie needed was a bigger threat.
Anik Mirza I understand that technology is developing fast, but it wouldn't have been difficult to have beefed it up more to give it a more robotic and intimidating feel. I was strictly speaking about the design choices. Perhaps more robotic movements would have been nice from Joel's performance, but not the exact movements or pace from the original. I'm not asking for the same amount of bulkiness Peter Weller wore, just something that looks less like a man.
StopWhatYerDoing you r missing the point in future prosthetic would be so good, that it would work and look similar to human body. We already have bionic arm and legs advanced. They r talking about the future, the story had to be believable. I know people like the original more, but that was 30 years ago. A lot changed since then.
Anik Mirza this is a movie we are talking about. An art form. They don't necessarily have to conform to the restraints of "the future". I get your point, but they don't need to limit themselves to something because it makes sense. It's called an artistic choice. Hell, in the original robocop when he took of his helmet, they took off his chin and neck guard. It would have made sense to leave it on because it was only the helmet he removed, but aesthetically speaking, it looked awful. And if he were to take that off too it would mess up the flow. So they made the artistic choice to remove it and leave out the removal of the gaurds.
Not to dismiss the hard and brilliant work done here, but as to the shape design of the suit, there seems to be a certain element of heroic, knight-like proportion with a protruding chest that is lost in translation from the old suit to the new, replaced by a goofier, less broad shouldered, more distended-belly-type, laid-back everyman body shape, for which I believe Crysis paved the unfortunate way. That superhero shape in the original was a huge part in expressing the essentially chivalrous figure of what its creators in the story intended to be a brand new, shining and valiant law enforcement method of the next millenium. In the movie, an essential story element was also the descent from this initial alpha crime fighter armor posture and shine to the decayed, damaged, and abandoned look of a man in conflict with himself, and with technology that has devoured him, now desperately in search for his humanity, whilst idealistically striving to establish higher values in the reality of greed and corruption of mankind. Do designers nowadays think about such nuances at all, or are they simply copycats of current trends even to the point of mismatch in expression? Do they give thought to such important threads within the very fabric of the work as a whole, which inseparably bind the story and visuals together?
“I also want to add that I really think it deserves a second chapter should be made of this new version of (RoboCop; It is because despite it being rated only two stars, it was great to see, and to add this movie ended with a cliffhanger type of ending.”
+arcticridge The movie was pretty good. Everyone just calls it bad because it's a "reboot" or "remake". Everyone hates first before giving it a chance. I watched it and enjoyed the movie for what it was, not for what it isn't.
it is a bad reboot/remake because it is worse than the original. if the original has never been made it still would be a bad movie except for a few scenes.
+krz bra Just rewatched it the other day. I still believe it's good. even compared to the original it's a unique film. My only complaint is they should've kept with the silver suit over the full black.
The idea is to make a movie that is as good as the original or close to it, not to make a movie that is better than the original. Unfortunately I have to agree with you on the Robocop remake. It wasn't bad but it wasn't good either. It was Okay.
Its also a refference to the old movie where one of his hands was shot and when they cut the other one when the scientist ask if they should let the good hand on, this time around they let that as a symbol that he still human in a way and mix in the hand id gun idea.
I thought this movie was really good. While it lacked the humor and satire of the original film, the visual effects of the Robocop suit were amazing, almost seamless between what was CGI effect and a physical prosthetic. I certainly cannot wait to see what Legacy does next!
Which obviously would be the goal of a company wanting to convince the public that this is a cybernetically enhanced man, not just a robot with a pretty human face. I doubt they would want to show how little actually remained of the man. Does that make sense?
rob jabbaz Because you are obviously just a butthurt franchise fan spewing nonsense, knowing nothing about applied product design (which in the remake is levels above the original..)
rob jabbaz I'm not making excuses. It's simply that the new movie makes more sense than the old one and actually makes the whole idea seem real and not just something to laugh at. If the original didn't have those cheesy tastless jokes and unnecessary gore scenes, it too could have done the story more justice. Doesn't matter anyway, I know I won't convince you.
VHS I do agree with you! This black suit looks something else...and also his freedom of movement and velocity let him feel not like a powerful Robot like the original Robocop was
The Man From Krypton There's also something called snitching. Not eveybody does it, except you. Mind your business. Both suits are cool (putting it out there).
General MVP both suits are cool in your opinion. There are many other people that think the original RoboCop suit was better. I happen to think this RoboCop should be in a junkyard somewhere, the guy was a hell of a lot more human than robot anyway. Also, WTH was the weird tangent on snitching about?
The Man From Krypton I agree, but also understand, it's harder than it seems to make. Besides, look back at the classic, the movement is not that distinct. All relies on the actor and how he makes it happen.
i really loved this suit. Wish i could have one. Anyway, i also like the movie. I Saw the original one way back, but i prefer this one. The suit, the helmet,and everything about the movie, i liked. some people disliked it, i however really enjoyed it. Good job legacy effects.
That awful rubberish look black suit and lets not forget that stupid exposed human hand. Hate that shit. The V1 armor was a decent modern take to the classic Rob Bottin's design. Next time they reboot Robocop, please hire DECENT script writers, because that movie was atrocious compared to the original one.
+André Kevermann the idea behind this movie (man into machine then into product) was amazing and that's actually why I liked it alot. its not unwatchable but as a fan the original... Is choose the original any day.
This film was atrocious. The allure of the first was its excess. The violence arguably made it a better film. Also, Boddiker was the quintessential villain. Everything in this script was watered down.
Movie was underated love the fact that they forced him to use the tactical black body, but ended the movie in his preferred body. I liked the black body but the silver one was the best. But I definitely love the fact, ROBOCOP CAN RUN!!! Also looking forward to the rumored ROBOCOP RETURNS with Peter Weller reprising the role.
Worst idea ever, make Robocop black. Why the they didnt stay in original look, or even original color! Soon as i saw this new suit, i decided that im not gonna watch this movie...
+Panssari1981 What color does the police wear? Right blue, dark blue, really dark blue and black. Do they wear silver? I think matte black is a good choice, it gives the product a special forces look and that sells good. Just look at cars and smartphones, black and white, nothing else. And here is the problem. Everything is midnight black now and it sucks.
***** Yes, i know that police dont wear silver suits. But ORIGINAL robocop was silver and that is how i see robocop should look like... It is just stupid to change his look this much. This new Robocop looks more like Batman wearing biker helmet than "real" Robocop.
There was no excuse for the all-black suit whatsoever. RoboCop is silver and black, period. You lose that visual, you lose the character's iconography. Even though I'm not a fan of the exposed right hand, the silver suit shown in the film was perfectly acceptable. I can look at it and instantly know who it is. The all-black suit? Might as well be the Nolan/Bale Batman, which was ugly enough by itself. There was no need to force RoboCop into that mold.
Exactly. When I first saw the silver (robot) suit, its like "they made a perfect redesign of robocop" and when he turns into the black suit, its like an all new character. "That's not robocop! they just used the name robocop and created a whole new image of him"
I couldn't agree more. The new silver suit they created was actually a really cool update of the original. The all black suit was generic and sucky looking. However if there is a sequel 'groans' I think most of us will guess that the silver suit will make a more permanent return.
The fact that they turned the modern version robocop into black suit is so badass in my opinion. I love the remake version even many people don't like it.
But at least, even tho they weren't the best, they kept the originl concept of RoboCop and didn't come with this crap! They are still better then this RoboCop remake. So Robert is right, gj modern Hollywood.
@Brandon Brooks well, you're right on a lot of things man, but even with Infinity War, they still used a partial practical model (helmet, chest piece) for lighting reference purposes. All I'm saying is I hate when people complain about CGI, when even the most resourceful and talented studios fail to make it 100% perfect; as if it were something super easy to make, when it involves tons of hard work.
I don't know why people are comparing the 2014 remake with the original 1987 version. There's absolutely no excuse for all the hate. I'll give the remake a fair chance. I think it looks good in my opinion. You have to know that these guys make remakes because they can attract new fans. But if you give it a lot of hate, you're only dooming the series that remake is in.
***** The movie is fun, but unlike the first one, it is nothing special. Just another PG-13 action flick, and not the best one. People are mad because it did the first one a disservice. It's only problem is that it has "Robocop" in it.
Terrible film, terrible deisng for the outfit. It just looks like a guy cosplaying as a mass effect character. At least the original had you beleive Weller was now my machine than man. But still, great skill in actualy putting the outfit together and an interesting video to watch. Always good to see the creative process even if I'm not a fan of the final product.
UKGAMINGFREAKS 78 this movie i like a lot better then the original robocop because i liked on how it focused more on the human element to Alex over him been more machine like in the 1987 movie.
V1 costume awesome damn near perfect,5 stars. The use of a motorcycle was nice. However the flat black paint, CGI, story all sadly failed. The story of Murphy could have continued as the organics aged and eventually failed or were put on ice. The new Robocop should have been a new story altogether not a remake. If you wanted to get the ending right, post credits, Cyberdyne systems gets hold of Bob Morton's technological information from a hard drive recovered from his burnt house. God I have thought a out this way too much.

The 1987 Robocop looked mean, badass and like he could take an absolute pounding. This version looks like he wants to be Batman.

When you're fast you don't have to worry about taking a pounding

ye better than generic black suit

Man. They should consider to have a sequel.. this was a great movie. Is bad that people dont recognize and appreciate the great effort and great effects. Please make another one.
Meat hand.
They should've stuck with the V1 suit. It was the best design.
i agree. touch it up here and there to be slightly more modern, but not much. the film probably would have done better
Surprisingly, I actually like this movie.
Such great talent love the effort and detail that went into it
As much as I love CGI VFX: This is so amazing and should never be replaced by CGI. Just because of the sake of it! :)
jurassic park proved that nothing beats CGI plus animatronics
***** Yes, CGI and animatronics should enhance each other more often, not just use one technique or the other.
Of course while the suit was real, they used CGI to further alter the body to skinny down the torso.
I liked this movie a lot. And I mean A LOT. I thought it was a great take on the original source material and Joel did an amazing job in the role. Anyone agree?
I like how the actor is water cooled haha. Very good idea. Just pum through ice cold water every 20 minutes and he's good!
That's he standard in super hero suits these days, Iron Man had it, Batman had it and I could continue for days.
@@OriginalPuro It was also how they cooled the astronauts in the Apollo space program, so that's probably where those costume designers got the idea.

General MVP there's these things you may not have heard of, called opinions.
They aren't contagious, everyone has them.
The Man From Krypton There's also something called snitching. Not eveybody does it, except you. Mind your business.
Both suits are cool (putting it out there).
General MVP both suits are cool in your opinion. There are many other people that think the original RoboCop suit was better. I happen to think this RoboCop should be in a junkyard somewhere, the guy was a hell of a lot more human than robot anyway.
Also, WTH was the weird tangent on snitching about?
The Man From Krypton I agree, but also understand, it's harder than it seems to make. Besides, look back at the classic, the movement is not that distinct. All relies on the actor and how he makes it happen.
Absolut fantastic looking black suit. Is there a making of for the ED 209, too?
It. was. a. GOOD. movie. Liked the suit too, looks cool.
i really loved this suit. Wish i could have one. Anyway, i also like the movie. I Saw the original one way back, but i prefer this one. The suit, the helmet,and everything about the movie, i liked. some people disliked it, i however really enjoyed it. Good job legacy effects.
Hated the black suit look, it looks like all it's missing is an ark reactor
V1 was better
+GESSO217 they should of kept it
That awful rubberish look black suit and lets not forget that stupid exposed human hand. Hate that shit. The V1 armor was a decent modern take to the classic Rob Bottin's design. Next time they reboot Robocop, please hire DECENT script writers, because that movie was atrocious compared to the original one.
+André Kevermann the idea behind this movie (man into machine then into product) was amazing and that's actually why I liked it alot. its not unwatchable but as a fan the original... Is choose the original any day.
2:49 Seeing this in real life could be cooler than the whole movie
To bad the movie sucked, because it looks like a lot of work went into it.
+Joseph Scott Better than hitman
that still dos-not take away its suck...
Widlem - CS:GO *****
Joseph Scott True, i'm still trying to take away the pain I got from paying for a ticket to see Hitman.
have you seen BvS... if your like me your pain will be replaced with that... Widlem - CS:GO
Joseph Scott Yes iv'e seen it Bruce been carried by bats made me wanna cry a lot.
I like Robocop, doesn't matter old or new as long as it's Robocop I'm happy! hihihi
Too modern and stylish this suit , I prefer 1000 times that Peter Weller used in the 80s
Too modern for something set in the future
After watching the Welcome to Legacy Effects - Special Effects Reel I have to say, Legacy Effects you have my support. Keep up the good work!
Even if the movie was bad, the silver armor was far better then black.
Amazing artwork
ROBO POWER RANGER
This guys has the coolest job ever
Changing Robocop to black was indeed a bad, BAD idea... I mean, what a hell is this?! RoboBat, BatCop, RoboBatCopMan?!?
+KarpowSCX Definitely bad idea plus the biological hand sucks
then make your own suit
+John Franco Ya missing the point. They HAD the good suit. Then they decided to fuck it up.
Not every black suit is a Batman suit.
predator yeah it is.
I love it, the suit is more advance, many woman like the actor as far as I know.
Not a bad film but I prefer the original
Original 10/10
Reboot 8/10
This film was atrocious. The allure of the first was its excess. The violence arguably made it a better film. Also, Boddiker was the quintessential villain. Everything in this script was watered down.
I liked new RoboCop :) greetings from Poland :)
kids version of 1987 Robocop.
Movie was underated love the fact that they forced him to use the tactical black body, but ended the movie in his preferred body. I liked the black body but the silver one was the best. But I definitely love the fact, ROBOCOP CAN RUN!!!
Also looking forward to the rumored ROBOCOP RETURNS with Peter Weller reprising the role.
Man a whole lot of work went in to making a completely generic, unremarkable suit.
Second best Robocop movie
Worst idea ever, make Robocop black. Why the they didnt stay in original look, or even original color! Soon as i saw this new suit, i decided that im not gonna watch this movie...
+Panssari1981 What color does the police wear? Right blue, dark blue, really dark blue and black. Do they wear silver? I think matte black is a good choice, it gives the product a special forces look and that sells good. Just look at cars and smartphones, black and white, nothing else. And here is the problem. Everything is midnight black now and it sucks.
***** Yes, i know that police dont wear silver suits. But ORIGINAL robocop was silver and that is how i see robocop should look like... It is just stupid to change his look this much. This new Robocop looks more like Batman wearing biker helmet than "real" Robocop.
Panssari1981
I know and i understand that.
+The Pandora Guy WE ARE NOT FUKING TALKING ABOUT REALITY M8 WE'RE TALKING ABOUT ROBOCOP

It is not capslock monday today, so how about you use your indoor voice.
Loved the movie! Loved the suit! Love Legacy! Cannot wait to see more videos from other movies you guys worked on!
There was no excuse for the all-black suit whatsoever. RoboCop is silver and black, period. You lose that visual, you lose the character's iconography.
Even though I'm not a fan of the exposed right hand, the silver suit shown in the film was perfectly acceptable. I can look at it and instantly know who it is. The all-black suit? Might as well be the Nolan/Bale Batman, which was ugly enough by itself. There was no need to force RoboCop into that mold.
Exactly. When I first saw the silver (robot) suit, its like "they made a perfect redesign of robocop" and when he turns into the black suit, its like an all new character. "That's not robocop! they just used the name robocop and created a whole new image of him"
Have you seen the movie? Might want to stick around until the end.
I couldn't agree more. The new silver suit they created was actually a really cool update of the original. The all black suit was generic and sucky looking. However if there is a sequel 'groans' I think most of us will guess that the silver suit will make a more permanent return.
HyperSole
Exactly. Both colors appear in the movie, which I liked a lot BTW.
***** Well here's hoping there is no sequel. I couldn't bear another one. It was not quite Robocop 3 bad, but it sucked! Stick with the original kids!
i totally enjoyed the redesign of the original silver suit.. wish they had stuck with it through the whole movie
"Here's how we did a worse job than some guys 20 years before us did"
This movie compared to the original was so..so bad
The fact that they turned the modern version robocop into black suit is so badass in my opinion. I love the remake version even many people don't like it.
Let's take an iconic figure and do our god damndest to ruin it.
- Modern Hollywood
+Robert Whitley RoboCop 2, 3, Prime Directives and the TV Shows have already done a perfect job of that.
But at least, even tho they weren't the best, they kept the originl concept of RoboCop and didn't come with this crap! They are still better then this RoboCop remake. So Robert is right, gj modern Hollywood.
after seeing this, that's actually not what happened here. that's just a lie that the "this movie ruined my childhood" crowd spread.
Robert Wheatley I agree. Well said.
Film still looks kinda cool
What do they do with they 3D printed models before they mold it?
So why can't the MCU make a real Iron Man suit instead of relying on wanky CG
Well, let me know you discover a way to make a practical believeable nano tech suit that covers your body out of nowhere without using "wanky CG"
I think they made an Iron Man suit for the first movie :0
Correct me if I'm wrong
They used real suits for EVERY movie. Mostly as a lighting reference, though.
@Brandon Brooks well, you're right on a lot of things man, but even with Infinity War, they still used a partial practical model (helmet, chest piece) for lighting reference purposes. All I'm saying is I hate when people complain about CGI, when even the most resourceful and talented studios fail to make it 100% perfect; as if it were something super easy to make, when it involves tons of hard work.
Hello, those things are super hot and a pain to work in
Did the actor keep the suit? coz if i were him i want one on display
I don't know why people are comparing the 2014 remake with the original 1987 version. There's absolutely no excuse for all the hate. I'll give the remake a fair chance. I think it looks good in my opinion. You have to know that these guys make remakes because they can attract new fans. But if you give it a lot of hate, you're only dooming the series that remake is in.
***** The movie is fun, but unlike the first one, it is nothing special. Just another PG-13 action flick, and not the best one. People are mad because it did the first one a disservice. It's only problem is that it has "Robocop" in it.
Thanks for this post, Always wanted to see the robocop making of the suit. Awesome Movie.. Hope we get a sequen soon enough now.
Terrible film, terrible deisng for the outfit. It just looks like a guy cosplaying as a mass effect character. At least the original had you beleive Weller was now my machine than man. But still, great skill in actualy putting the outfit together and an interesting video to watch. Always good to see the creative process even if I'm not a fan of the final product.
It's a awesome film and if you think about it the suits are not going to be the same that's just boring you need to think of that
UKGAMINGFREAKS 78 this movie i like a lot better then the original robocop because i liked on how it focused more on the human element to Alex over him been more machine like in the 1987 movie.

Farseer Flore The film wasn't horrible and how are the designs of the suits horrible
You make suge a magnificent work! Thank you for sharing that! I Wish I could work on a place like that!
Sad to see all this work was done and the remake was crap.
Yes, so much potential was right there for the picking, but they really dropped the ball in a pile of ...
I don't get why people are so upset with this black suit. It is amazing ! I absolutely loved it. The movie is great too !
V1 costume awesome damn near perfect,5 stars. The use of a motorcycle was nice. However the flat black paint, CGI, story all sadly failed. The story of Murphy could have continued as the organics aged and eventually failed or were put on ice. The new Robocop should have been a new story altogether not a remake. If you wanted to get the ending right, post credits, Cyberdyne systems gets hold of Bob Morton's technological information from a hard drive recovered from his burnt house.
God I have thought a out this way too much.
With all this effort into the suit and production, why can’t they do that with the story 🤷♂️
Working in the fabrication shop at Legacy is my dream job
