It's annoying how that review constantly calls Anderson Cassandra.

I promise not to try at all.

Yes, but you do look like Mark Hamill.

DREDD runtime: 96 minutes

FINALLY. That actually sounds like the perfect runtime for a film like this.

Wow, what a day. Been great to see the twitterverse light up with postitive comments, reviews also sounding good from people who may have no following of Dredd as a character.
Blackmocco enjoyed it and gave us enough to really start to salivate.
This is all starting to point towards something amazing happening for Dredd in September for fans and newbies.
Just wondering how newbies will take to present day JD if they pick up a prog on the back of seeing the movie? I guess they'll just have to plough through Case Files, which is no bad thing :)
Talking of which, where should I post questions regarding order of stories to read? My last Trade was The Pit, and I'm wanting to be ready for Day of Chaos when it gets collected together... I suppose I've now posed that question here... doh!

Also I want some bespoke 3D glasses that have been turned into the Dredds headgear to wear to the movie, just imagine row after row of people wearing lids, that'd look much cooler than the stupid glasses :)

Yanks'll be reading the IDW Dredd.

Have to say, most people I spoke to last night had never read the comic. They had heard of it but never read it and really, their biggest exposure to Dredd was the Stallone movie. I guess the good news is they were aware the Stallone version wasn't accurate so they were curious to see a new one. Maybe the IDW stuff will change that. I'm doubtful. I believe the movie will make people curious to read the original stuff though.

This thread covers it pretty well.

Thanks Chosen Rider, nice steer. I'll be filling in any gaps I have pretty soon me thinks, should kill the agonising 8 week wait til Dredd arrives, and by the sounds of it, kicks serious butt!
