Robo-Upgrade

The producers of the upcoming "RoboCop" flick confirmed to MTV News that it's not a sequel but a reboot ala "Batman Begins".

Brad Fischer: "None of [the earlier films are] going to be canonical, as a matter of fact. I wouldn't say it's a direct sequel".

Mike Medavoy talks rating:

"Well I was involved with the original 'RoboCop,' and it was an R, and the likelihood is that this will be an R... It's likely to be an R unless the director [Darren Aronofsky] cuts back on some of it."

As to whether original Robo Peter Weller would appear in the film?

Medavoy said it's "the director's choice."

A 3D version of the film has never been discussed....

Since they are starting over--A cameo for Weller-as a nod to what's come before-would work best here.
