Looks like he's taking a cartoony Star Wars approach with The Hobbit.
I blame the HFR and the 3D processing time. That stuff takes a long time and he is really cutting this close. They should have skipped the 3D. Its hard to believe that the 3rd film is supposed to be ready by Summer 2014.

The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, from Ben Stiller -- the first film he's directed since Tropic Thunder. The subject matter should give Theodore Shapiro a chance to spread his wings, too.
Someone on Facebook said it perfectly: this will be forgotten in two weeks after it opens, just like the Total Recall remake, while the original will be remembered for many more years to come.
And I still say that this Robocop looks more like just a man in a suit than an actual robotic machine like the original.
The impression I get from the Robocop trailer is that Murphy is more immediately aware of what has happened to him instead of being a programmed computer. We will see. What makes Verhoeven's film great is the corporate satire and the gruesome-yet-comical violence. Maybe they're going for something different here. I'll give it a chance.
Ugh...I hate to say it but this is the first time since the film's announcement that I'm starting to think that RoboCop might....might....have some potential....

The idea of the family knowing and him interacting with them is a new shade that I actually like. I didn't have any hopes but this looks promising now to me ESPECIALLY since its from the director of ELITE SQUAD 1 and 2.
It looks great indeed. I used to not love Wes Anderson and I still don't love everything he's done, but he's nevertheless one of my favorites working today.
