Quote from: "santefering"Would love it if they began the movie with a short montage of the judges coming to power and arresting the last president. Maybe a voice over too. It would be better than some text crawl like star wars or the first judge dredd film. Anyone else agree.


Nice idea but with a new President about to be inaugurated it might not go down to well with the movie's producers. They tend to be Democrats in the entertainment industry so a film depicting the arrest of a U.S. President will be as welcome as Osama Bin Laden's Airways. Humans are territorial apes in disguise so doing the V's up to 'their man' in the White house is a definite  no no.

I think that President Obama can only do his best against a truly awful economic situation in an increasingly volatile world. He at least appears to be a pragmatist with no particular political or religious doctrine to promote unlike the pro creationist Bush.  That surely is a plus.

President Obama is unlikely to warm to Britain as we tortured his grandfather during the Mau Mau uprising in Kenya against Britain's colonial rule in 1952. A pretty brutal affair with the official body count of 12-15,000 Kenyans killed now open to question with some suggesting that over 50,000 indigenous Kenyans died and Obamas Grandfather had a deep hatred of the British as he had fought for Britain in Burma during World War 2.

I haven't exactly got a encyclopedic knowledge of Africa or our retreat from Empire but I suspect Obama will politely ignore Britiain and the 'special relationship' and treat us as a minor member of the E.U as irrelevent as Luxemburg since he has personal reasons not to love us much.

Part of the film but not a essential a part of the story.

They could repeat the same advertisments for half a hour.

Like have them on loop, so if somebody need a breath fresh air if even for just five-ten minates.

They still catch up on those humerous adverts.

Maybe instead of spoof adverts they should have short Justice Dept public information films 'justifying' why it's necessary for the state to break your head, why a Judge is your friendly neighbourhood executioner and why informing on others is every law abiding citizen's public duty. Get's into the gestapo like nature of the big Meg straight away.

 Personally I think this has been covered too much already in films like Robocop etc so I'd avoid it. Still keep your thinking hats on and we'll have enough stuff to make our own movie by the time the first one comes out.

I think from the reaction to the news of a new DREDD movie being made- AND the fact that there are probably 3 years to go before it hits the Cinema screen Futsie induced madness will eventually sweep the 2000A.D forums.

I'll all be viewing DREDD 2012 from the comfort of my favorite asylum.Book your own seat now.

Yeah, it's pretty early days yet folks so let's not worry too much about off the cuff remarks. We assumed or I did anyway Danny Boyle might be involved in the production but it 'ain't necessarily so' as Bronski Beat once sang. The visuals by JOCK look great so let's stay positive.

Hat's off to el- lopo and his Judge Minty project. Incredible dedication man!

The first 'emo' Doctor Who ! Well, give the chap a chance I say. Interesting choice like the new Star Trek film they've decided to go for youth re-invigorating a familiar formula with a fresh face. 2010 we'll find out whether it's been worth it.

Games / Rebellion joins the rebels!
03 January, 2009, 04:31:52 PM
I read on videogamer.com that 'Rebellion, the oxford based games developer' is taking over 'StarWars Battlefront 3' from some poor joes who just lost their jobs at E.A games or subsidury  company. They claimed it was more than just a rumour.

Just thnk of it- Dredd v's StarWars! Total geekdom, if it could come true but it might effect Rebellion planning other game titles from it's 200O A.D portfolio.  Boo! Rebel scum!
