RoboCop Makes Video Shout Out To Detroit

In a two-minute web video, the actor who played RoboCop in the 1987 film, Peter Weller, says the effort isn't silly and is one that Detroit should be proud of. Weller lists several names of hometown celebrities, such as Madonna, Eminem and Tim Allen, who he says are part of the crusade to restore greatness to the city.

Just six days after an online fundraising campaign began in February, a loosely organized group of Detroiters raised more than $50,000 to build a statue to pay homage to the film.
