Thought I'd put this discussion out here, would love to know what other forum-dwellers think...

... I agree wholeheartedly with Chris Nolan, film is still unsurpassed in terms of overall quality; you simply cannot get that level of warmth, richness, and texture on a digital image, and whilst digital images have come along in very considerable leaps and bounds since the days of the horrendously artificial look of the Star Wars  prequels, in terms of resolution and overall quality, 35mm is still the standard by which all others should be judged upon, just my opinion anyway...

Been tracking this movie's progress, and finally the trailer is out - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FlzjvIS9pmg - don't know what to make of it though, it looks more like a television episode than a theatrical movie, not surprising considering it's paltry £3.5m budget, they better not screw this up, the original series is still the best British series ever made..."SHAT IT!"

Bye bye Bond, cheerio Bourne, Ethan who, make room for the real action hero - http://www.24spoilers.com/2011/09/25/kiefer-sutherland-24-movie-script-almost-completed/ - this movie is going to rock...

It would appear lately that with the release of Dredd a whole 14 months away, we seem to be losing a certain momentum when it comes to subject matter, so this is my attempt to try and get some decent conversing going, don't know how lasting this'll be, but I can give it a go anyhoo...

Now we've seen the Judge uniforms and (albeit in a dodgy spy-shot) the Lawmaster, what do other forum dwellers think and/or hope the new Mega-City One will look like, in other words, do y'all think it will be a more 'real' city- looking much more like a current city only bigger- or a more recognisably futuristic city like in the comics... or a combination of both...

My bet is that it will be like the Blade Runner or the 1995 Judge Dredd  'movie' (and yes, those inverted commas are deliberate) cityscapes, in that it will look recognisably futuristic but will still be a few steps from where we are now, minus the usual airborne traffic and hence the four-wheel vehicles seen in spy-shots previously, what does everyone else think...?
