Judge Dredd Movie is Green Lit!

[Buddy]

I think your right about the Belgian FN vzzbux.

Wonder if they're going to ditch the pistol Lawgiver and exchange it for some supped up assault weapon ?

Quite a clever way of getting some distance from the 1995 Stallone effort.

I'm pretty sure this is just a promo piece, I'm not sure we can assume the lawgiver has been ditched based on one drawing.

John Wagner, Dredd's co-creator and main writer throughout the thirty-three year history of the character, has seen the script, and has said "it's high-octane, edge of the seat stuff, and gives a far truer representation of Dredd than the first movie," and a "high-octane slay ride through the dark underbelly of a vast futuristic city.

I hear Gok Wan has got the role of Judge Logan.

Judge Dredd to be played by Michael Caine: "You're only supposed to blow their bloody heads off!"

I can't think of a good idea why this doesn't qualify for the Page 100 challenge, BTW, so knock yourself out.

Cheers!

Nice work Crave.  I want everyone to bookmark that post until we have a NEW version of it to bookmark, then just point folks saying "what's happening" towards it.  Easy.

And the father of a certain Wild Mc7 might want to weigh in on the weapon chat.  WILD?!  Get yer da!

[JOE SOAP]

Why didn't they go with a Jock piece of work for Cannes?

[Peter Wolf]

I am not particularly struck on this promo pic at all.

I could list the reasons why but i wont.

Why didn't they go with a Jock piece of work for Cannes?

I wish they had.

Well I like it. Dredd was always destined to be portrayed with cameltoe.
