Lollipop Chainsaw RePop Revealed, Dated, Exposed

[PopGeeks]

There’s been a big question mark hovering over Dragami Games’ remake of Lollipop Chainsaw ever since it was first announced…the biggest question being if it was even possible. Fans of the original would want the sophomoric humor untouched and uncensored. Moral crusaders who write for gaming websites would be sharpening their pencils readying to take it down. Pleasing both would be impossible. Then there was all the licensed music in the game — what would happen to that? Lollipop Chainsaw Re-Pop was announced two years ago and it wasn’t until this evening that the lid was taken off. So what’re we getting? Well, based on the footage from the trailer, the rude sense of humor doesn’t APPEAR to be toned down — we can’t hear anyone say anything, but Juliet’s still wearing the same outfit. However, there will be a “RePop Mode,” which covers up some of the more gory acts of violence with pop-art effects. The footage in the trailer is from the RePop mode. You can have the

I wish we have a sequel instead of a remake because Julie said she fought Frankenberries and I want to fight Frankenberries.,

Don't get me wrong, a remaster of Lollipop Chainsaw is cool and all, but wouldn't a full-fledged sequel be even better? Imagine Juliet a few years older, maybe even training new zombie slayers with her signature pep and chainsaw skills. The over-the-top humor and gory action could be taken to a whole new level with today's technology. Plus, a sequel could introduce some fresh mechanics and a brand new undead threat for Juliet to conquer. I wouldn't mind seeing a bit more in the story department either. RePop Mode sounds like a fun addition, but give me a reason to truly dive back into this world with a brand new adventure for Juliet Starling!

Whoa, Lollipop Chainsaw RePop is happening? That's awesome news! But you know what would be even more awesome? Seeing Juliet Starling take her chainsaw-wielding cheerleading fury to the Mortal Kombat 1! Her flamboyant personality and brutal finishing moves would be a perfect fit for the game's roster. Imagine her taunting opponents with sassy one-liners before unleashing a combo that ends with a gloriously bloody Fatality! Here's hoping Warner Bros. and NetherRealm Studios consider Juliet for future Mortal Kombat DLC. I mean she came from the same studio, easy make over and she is a legal aged adult.

As long as Tara Strong reprises her role as Juliet, I'm sold! Her energetic and witty voice delivery was a huge part of what made Juliet such a memorable character. She perfectly captured Juliet's bubbly personality and fierce determination. Seriously, who else could deliver lines like "Come get some, ya brain-munchin' freaks!" with such infectious enthusiasm? Plus, Tara Strong's a veteran voice actress with tons of experience in video games. It just wouldn't be the same Lollipop Chainsaw without her iconic performance. Speaking of which, is James Gunn still involved in any way with RePop? His creative vision was a big part of the original game's charm, so it'd be interesting to see if he had any input on the remake.

Man, they replaced the music with generic stuff? Now I gotta picture Juliet slaying zombies with royalty-free elevator music in the background. Maybe I can mod in the Mickey for maximum chaos.

No more 80s songs? But thats what make the first game cool

he news about the missing licensed music stings a bit. Tracks like 'Lollipop' by The Chordettes and 'Mickey' by Toni Basil were so iconic and perfectly captured the game's quirky atmosphere. Sure, the original songs will likely be missed, but this also opens up an interesting opportunity for the PC modding community. If Dragami allows for some level of modding support, I can see some talented folks creating mods that reintroduce the original soundtrack or even add new licensed music that fits the game's vibe. It could breathe even more life into the remake and create a truly special experience for PC players

Remember how Juliet kept talking about slaying werewolves, vampires, and even Frankenberries? Can you imagine the pure, unadulterated chaos of Juliet taking on a whole menagerie of supernatural monsters that are not zombies.Think about it: Juliet dodging a vampire's batarang with her chainsaw, then whipping out a pom-pom launcher to blast a werewolf mid-transformation. Or facing down a giant Frankenberry boss, dodging its stomping feet and raining down candy-coated carnage with her trusty chainsaw. The possibilities are endless! Plus, imagine the music! Dragami could go wild with a whole new soundtrack that perfectly captures the wackiness of each new monster type.
