Spoilers of course if you haven't seen it.









- The fatty (complete with unicycle for belly) dead at the beginning
- A hotty stand
- graffitti that said Chopper.
- The fact that there were only two hi ex rounds
- exploding lawgiver

Did you notice any other cool references to the world of Dredd kicking around?  I'm not very good with that kind of subtle detail stuff.

Fisticuffs

I must have missed the dead fatty, saw the one sat in his room in Peach Trees though. :D

The "Kenny Who?" graffiti when it pans back on a shot of the multiple levels.

[spoiler]Otto Sump store![/spoiler]  Didn't catch the full name of the store but that was enough to grin me up and I did enjoy the [spoiler]cautionary Fatty[/spoiler] later on in Peach Trees, while I scoffed my chocolate.  Perfect timing!
Was kicking myself for blinking just after the [spoiler]Dredd-tracked-by-his-voice-kills-the-creeps-with-mucho-flamo[/spoiler] moment because I just know that big sign (advert? film poster?) on the screen that I didn't refocus on in time has something on it for the Blu-Ray pause treatment!  Dang!

Oh, and [spoiler]Judge Volt![/spoiler]
So this is der place then, Johnny?

There's a blink-and-you'll-miss-it appearence by Hershey - or at least her name - on a computer screen at the start of the movie.

Oh man, I missed so many!  Where was Judge Volt?

He was one of the two Judges outside the block.HUGE GUY!

Buttonman

Can give a confirm on Volt and saw our very own Joe Soap's name and avatar near the start. Spotted the Kenny Who? and the Krysler movie poster. Of the blocks Sternhammer, O'neil and Tom Frame were the most readable.

I kept having to tell myself to watch the action rather than scanning the background graffiti (that's for the DVD), so the only ones I really noticed were Ch :) pper and Kenny Who, plus the Hottie stand and a few block names - spotted Bolland in addition to the ones mentioned.

Pioneer

Saw the Shoppera sign and most of the other already mentioned ones, no Joe Soap or Goaty though!? Any pointers?

Oh well, second (or third??) time around I guess!

I saw the name 'Hicklenton' on a block, and let out an audible 'aw', which my buddy's girlfriend noticed, and I had to later explain.

A nice tribute to a unique artist.

The word DROKK painted on a leather jacket belonging to the perps in the van at the very start.

Was that established in the comic somewhere?

Judge Death is a serial killer who got turned into a zombie when he met two witches in the woods one day...Judge Death is his real name.
