Will they or won’t they get married? That’s the question on everyone’s minds when it comes to the world-famous Muppets pair Kermit The Frog and Miss Piggy. The couple has been together for decades, repeatedly professing their love for one another, yet Piggy has had to resort to trickery several times in the past in an effort to get Kermit down the aisle. In 1984’s Muppets Take Manhattan, the couple seemingly tied the knot, but it seems the union was invalidity due to it being yet another one of Piggy’s schemes.

For the upcoming film Muppets Most Wanted, Piggy commissioned a dress from famous designer Vivienne Westwood, whose creation can be used as a wedding gown if Piggy can get Kermit to finally say “I do” for real this time around.

“I’d buy that for a dollar!”

Directed by Dutch filmmaker Paul Verhoeven, 1987’s RoboCop is a sci-fi satire that explores themes of greed, privatization, capitalism, dystopia, and identity. The film spawned two theatrical sequels, two animated series, and two live-action television series – not to mention comic books, video games, toys, and theme park rides.

Because the RoboCop franchise was popular and profitable in the ’80s, it was only a matter of time until Hollywood resurrected it. For an industry that rides a fine line between creativity and commerce, movie studios see remakes as a way to mitigate financial risk. Why take a chance on new ideas and original scripts when they can dust off a recognizable brand and put a “new spin” on it, appealing to the audience’s collective nostalgia for said brand? For studios, remakes operate on the simple principle that, even if it sucks, it will still make money.

And so here we are, in the year 2014, with a RoboCop remake by Brazilian director José Padilha, best known for the 2007 crime film Elite Squad and its sequel, 2010’s Elite Squad: The Enemy Within (the highest-grossing film in Brazilian history). The Elite Squad films are action-packed; filled with intense violence, police corruption, and political commentary, which is probably why MGM and Sony chose Padilha to direct in the first place.
