That's awesome.

Those lawmasters, from 'meh' to rather iconic dontchya think?

Too right- if that was the actual poster, I'd be tempted to go! And Radiator's made the Lawmasters into something quite special.

@Radiator: As a matter of interest is it easier drawing Dredd in that kit or the regular kit ?

3 weeks to go

How come we see all those brilliantly named blocks, like Ezquerra and Sternhammer, yet the action takes place in "Peach Trees"?

WTF?

[Goaty]

Maybe bit on wine tonight but three weeks to go, everyone gives it positive reviews, honest who cared if it get less audience as most important is to enjoy the Dredd film entertainet of your life. 3 weeks and I can't wait!!

Yeah, the film actually has used 2000ad naming methodology by calling it Peach Trees. I did wonder why, till the news broke.

It'd be nice if the Odeon had a midnight showing round these parts. I would've thought (hoped?) there'd be enough Dredd geeks to make that worthwhile.

Doubt it very much.

Went to see Bourne Legacy, no sooner had I said to my son that it'd be good if we got the Dredd trailer...instead we get a new Bond trailer. Guess what, Bond's Walther PPK now READS HIS PALM PRINT SO NO ONE BUT BOND CAN FIRE HIS GUN. Perhaps this has been mentioned here but that's surely a trademark infringement? Do any of you know of any precedents pre-Dredd for this technology?...I was, am pissed off.

You can't copyright an abstract idea in fiction. As Robocop proves.

The Logan's Run gun carried by the Sandmen has six types of ammo.

The Cursed Earth synopsis is pretty close to Damnation Alley.

Nice examples - no such thing as an original thought. Roughly speaking.
