    This is nothing but viral marketing for the movie.

    That website is owned by the producers.

    While true, there are millions of other wastes of money by Americans that rank higher on the list.

    I remember Robocop being filmed in Houston. My nephew was just born at the time and got a role as a crying baby. Since they filmed two babies on the set, we don't know if he actually made it in the movie or not.

    It was Robocop 2 that was filmed in Houston. Our city's finest hour.

    no, there's statues everywhere in every city.

    It's a sign of hope. it's a symbol. it's a hero.

    Why not spend that money on the inner city youth as opposed to a giant viral marketing ploy?

    an inability to spend money is not Detroit's problem

    This was funded by private citizens, not by OCP.
