Wow, This thread is long! (is there a limit?)
I haven't checked the forum for a while, & when I did there was a leaked gif from the film!
How excited was I!!!! Looks great for the few seconds that were shown even in poor quality.
Provoked quite some discussions didn't it! And now we are on to penning the sequels...(for my 2pence I'd like to see World Judges Hondo/Brit-Cit/Sov)
I've always figured that a AKIRA style cartoon would be ideal for Dredd (and MC1) and could surely be made relatively cheaply, just ask Kenny Who.

For all those moaning about a lack of official news about the film I remember before the internet where one had to watch some late night film show, (on one of my 4 available channels) or buy some overpriced magazine for a few paragraphs about my all time fav comic character coming to the big screen.
Which made the disappointment worse I suppose because the idea it was going to be great lasted until I saw it... 
Talking of which, something I need to get off my chest: Everytime 'that film' is on tv the RadioTimes trotts out the same old review which gives it 4 out of 5 stars!!! Grrrrrr

Anyway, just like to say that there seems to be some really rather intelligent/witty/stubborn/knowing/creative people on here and have enjoyed visiting and reading posts.

Any chance you could ammend my status also please, I'm not a new arrival, just havn't felt the need to post that often. However I'd like to add my 2peneth to the film thread occasionally. Thanks 

Ahhhh, I've ended up hassling Goaty about this problem, if only I'd looked further down the Topic page I would have found my answer.
So when do we know if we've proved we are genuine & lovely & worthy of posting on the film thread?
I even started a Topic ages ago, does that count?
Does this reply count towards my 'I'm Sane' points?
Is anyone even reading this as the last reply was 4 months ago?

What he said.
CF's post is just what I was thinking after reading various nah sayers on here. (he clearly knows his stuff & was well written)
Empire pics were lovely to see (the mag is crap tho)

Now a break for a few months untill another snippet

Hey there Paul!

Cool that 2000ad still has the hook to pull in (& hold?) new readers.
Be cool to get someone in the know (I think this'll be the forum to find em)
to give you some info* on pivotal Dredd stories of the past (I presume he's still the main draw for the earthlets that read the progs)(?)

* Chronological order/ Important Story Arcs
Damn good stories/Great art/Etc etc

Hope you enjoy the ride!

Hey guys,

Anyone know if the language of Mega-City 1 finds it's way into the script (I hear the script is out there, but I'll be hearing it for the 1st time when I see the film cos I don't wanna spoil the story) but a few Drokks & Gruds would be great.

As for the Images that are out there I'm kinda excited, when I 1st saw basic automobiles as catchwagons I was somewhat miffed, but reading the various comments on here about this being the origins of Dredd hopefully it'll work.
I just hope there's some sort of grand scale to the films interpretation of
Mega-City 1, even if the main story doesn't travel that far from one city block.

Going to be a long wait...

Hey guys,

Just wanna say Hi, I grew up with 2000ad from the black&white days through to the computer coloured wonder of the modern time, (my last issue would've been some 10 years back mind)

Joined the forum to keep upto date on the new film (the old one almost made me cry..)

Looking forward to getting to know you lot!

S.
