Dredd (2012)

The reds are a rival gang.

Cheers Radiator.

Can't remember exactly what the gang is called - could just be The Reds, but pretty sure you can see all of the gang names on the animated diagram of Peach Trees during the Ma Ma montage (showing how the Ma Ma Clan took over Peach Trees from all the other gangs).

I'll have a look at the animated screen. They mention The Judged, The Red Dragons and The Peyote Kings....so of course It must refer to the red dragons. I just wondered with the uniforms being so beaten up, could be post Apocalypse war MC1.

I always assumed the gangs Ma-Ma wiped out were particular to that block only.  From that you could infer 'Red territory' is another gang not related to the Red Dragons at all. It could be a gang just called 'The Reds'.

either Red for Sov-lovers or;

Doubt it, it's clearly implied that the Clan has influence that extends outside of Peach Trees, and they have stated ambitions to 'take the whole city'. I'm not really up on my street gang knowledge but I just assumed the gangs in PT were just local subdivisions of larger gangs - with the exception of the Clan which strikes me as an upstart kind of operation.

On a related note, I remember Alex mentioning that he had researched Asian street gangs for the look of the gangs in Dredd - the face tattoos etc.

Anyway, had some eBay vouchers to use up so I caved and ordered the Japanese Dredd Steelbook, and Sod's Law dictates that they will announce a much more affordable UK or US steelbook/Collector's edition next week.

There's a Zimbio 'best comic film adaptation' contest flying around Facebook at the moment. Dredd has flattened all comers. Zimbio have added a feature about it:

At the moment it's DREDD 74% - Dark Knight 26%

That's great to hear. There is obviously an awsome demand for a sequel out there. Z
