Don't worry, only another 7 months to wait blackmocco then all our doubts will be gone...erm.. are we gonna see any aliens or spacecraft in the film? What about droids?

[JOE SOAP]

Nope, why would the complicate it aliens?

At least the Lawmasters can turn corners this time.

Post above should read: Nope, why would they complicate it with aliens?

No aliens? no droids? c'mon this is Dredd. There must at least be some mutants in it?

It depends on how faithful they're being to the Dreddverse legal system.

If they aren't what would be the point?

They're saving that for the sequel ;-)

Anderson is a mutant in the movie.

Could be a spoiler in that .GIF

Isn't the Death sentence mainly reserved for Judge killers? The summary execution shown could be that sentence being carried out. Is yer man a Judge killer?

It depends on how faithful they're being to the Dreddverse legal system.

Regardless, it looks pretty sweet, the most exciting titbit I've seen so far.

I think these are rogue Judges, so they are acting above whatever law is in place in the movie setting.

This film isn't about those things. They aren't making that type of Dredd. It's exclusively about the job. The Cursed Earth is mentioned but not delved into. Anderson is a mutant if you like.

That don't count!  I meant some real freaks. like Roger.

As long as it feels like Dredd, I don't really care if we're looking at a film that could be set in the 2100s, or 2030, or, like Children of Men, a brutal near future. It's an adaptation of Dredd. On those shots, MC-1 looks horrible—an absolute shit-hole. There's a real 'on the brink' vibe coming off the snippets we've seen, which I'm really intrigued to see as a film. That certainly beats the ’90s gloss of the last one.

This has all ready been posted from the original FX showreel. You're linking to a Scojo version there.

Quite so. We don't need a film about mutants and aliens. Most Dredd stories aren't about either. A Judge and a few perps is a better way to go.

No Dark Judges required either.

Sequels can give us those things if this film brings in enough.
