Yeah it's a great poster based on a classic pose. I took a similar one for the Planet Replicas shoot, but wasn't quite happy with the pose looking back on it so it never got used.

The Fringe: This Dredd 3D Poster Looks Very Familiar http://www.shocktillyoudrop.com/news/169017-the-fringe-this-dredd-3d-poster-looks-very-familiar?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter

Can someone else tell this bell end what came first?I just Tweeted him the above pic and he said"Sure, but I sincerely doubt the poster creator saw that piece of art."

I replied that Jock just said that it was based on it!! :D

Yeah, the only problem there is that my IMMEDIATE thought on seeing it was 'daredevil'. That's not a bad thing, as i really like the poster for daredevil, and as it goes, i really like the poster for dredd. It's merely the angle and the corner of the buiding, along with the similar mood. Lots of posters look like other posters, it's no biggie. Despite the similarities to daredevil, i'd say that's a fine piece of promo. It's a tiny wee shame about the strapline, but on the whole, yeah, good stuff.

Well you can't deny that it's also taking inspiration from other character posing on top of building ledge posters.

That was the inspiration. They even tried it with the flag.

Amazing, Jock, maybe it's better without the flag, as Americans won't to see that if poster of that in US?

The difference between the images would be the semiotics.

Dredd posed atop the city perfectly reflects the thematic concerns of the material; while aggravating his haemorrhoids by perching on architraves is just the kind of thing Pete Parker does most evenings. If that Spiderman image was trying to reflect the theme of the films, Tobey Maguire would have been posed atop Kirsten Dunst.

Think Dredd treading on the stars and stripes might have been a step to far for the yanks. Very nice poster.
