I’m sure you saw the Chrysler’s “Imported From Detroit” Super
Bowl commercial featuring Eminem. Detroit has an image problem,
and steps have been taken to spin the city’s image back in a
more positive direction. Detroit Mayor Dave Bing has been
soliciting the internet for suggestions on how to clean up the
city and its image. One follower suggested that Detroit erect a
giant statue of Robocop.  Mayor Dave Bing actually responded.  I
for one actually think it’s a great idea. Erecting a Robocop
statue in the city would instantly create a new tourism
opportunity, and bring a sense of pride back to the city.
Pennsylvania has gotten a lot of mileage out of the iconic Rocky
statue, and smaller locales like Vulcan , Alberta , Canada have
followed suit, erecting a Starship Enterprise Statue. The only
problem with having a Robocop statue in Detroit is that the
movie wasn’t shot in Detroit. While the film’s story is set and
will forever be associated with the city, the movie was actually
shot mostly in Pennsylvania and
