I've read 2000AD from Prog 1 - now a haunted refugee from IMDB Dredd boards

Now then Samson_k, and welcome 

lost my space spinner by about 4pm that afternoon - a sudden gust of wind having taken it to the 'haunted woods' that were behind the primary school I was at. 

There's be a few tales of woe like this. I look forward to seeing a future episode of Time Team, when they unearth a few.

Hi Samson. Getting weary of the IMDb board myself now. When I first started posting on there on the day I saw Dredd on it's release, I loved it, and quickly saw that there was a nice bunch of guys to converse with, including yourself. It was great fun for a while, but ever since the US release (no anti Americanism intended) it did get swamped with a lot of immature rantings.
Coming on this forum from there feels like coming out of a crowded and noisy street into a quiet warm pub with a roaring, crackling fire, putting my feet up and sipping ale whilst conversing with like minded gents lol.
I haven't been on here much myself but look forward to more postings and talking with the members on here

How are you doing?

I'm doing great.  Glad to see you here too. 
I was on the IMDB forums too, remember?

I once wrote a script for a Judge Dredd film in four school jotters and sent it to 'John Carpenter, Hollywood, America' - that was in 1980 and he never, ever got back to me.

That's cool that you wrote a script. I'd love to see it.

However now IMDB Dredd board has become a mire of misery and wailing and people LOL'ing a lot and other people wondering why AMERICAN AUDIENCES HATE US SO MUCH that I thought that I'd come here as I believe that a lot of the people I spoke to regularly were on here and there would likely be more fairly level headed people than the wailing banshees that are tearing the flesh from their bones elsewhere.

A reasonable idea.

I thought Dredd was a near perfect adaptation and I'm disappointed that the box office is so far not reflecting the quality

I feel the same way, even though my exposure to the actual comics is severely limited.
