Robocop in 3D

Bloody Disgusting has a snip from MGM chairperson Mary Parent about a Robocop remake:

For MGM, among those is a continuation of Bond and Pink Panther sequels, an announced remake of “Fame” and a not-yet-announced remake of “RoboCop,” possibly in 3-D. “‘RoboCop” would be great in 3-D, as would something we’re hoping to announce soon,” said Parent.

There’s a lot of ‘possibly’ in there, but if Robocop does go 3D, it would pretty much lose what was good about the original - Peter Weller and stop motion animation. Then again, after Indiana Jones IV, I wish they had thrown away its links to the original.
