Robocop was one of those weird movies that was marketed to kids. I think it even had its own Cartoon series. Because of that they made the third movie a PG-13.
shareMy guess is to broaden the possible audience. It has the little girl in it from memory, and this gave me a way to watch it with my young kids who otherwise couldn't see 1 and 2.
