Just kidding, obviously.  That's me back in 1995.  Oh, the humanity.

Cool, what were you doing on that film, monkey dude (any gossip or titbits from the set?) and is that Sly beside you?

Nothing so exciting I'm afraid mate!  That pic was taken on the mean pedways of Cardiff City Centre.  It was some promotional thing they were doing when the 1995 film came out.  No-one famous was dressed as Dredd unfortunately. 

I thought it was the most exciting thing ever though, and ran to Boots to get a disposable camera so I could immortalise my moment with my comicbook (anti)hero.  That photo has been kicking around my house for ages - forgot about it until recently!

So how did it go?

I enjoyed the demo very much, despite the slightly shonky kinect controls.  It's a pre-order for sure!

Great poster. Very atmospheric. Makes Dredd look.... well a bit like a hollow suit really. An extension of the fact half his face is normally hidden, and it works very well.

...and nowhere on that poster is there even any indication of who's playing the role. Bit unusual.

It's Karl Urban.   ::)

:P

If it is anything like how it works on computer games, then yes - the visual effect has to be rendered twice, once for each eye.

*wants a trailer too .___.*

Wow, there were a couple of things there I had not seen before.  Cool!

Wow.  :o. I am seriously impressed.

Sorry for the confusing info - my memory isn't what it used to be.  I wrote that letter, and Basil was my pet rat at the time.

Bah, that might have been vaguely amusing if I'd selected spoiler instead of strikeout.  Heigh ho.  :lol:

Yeah, starting to lose interest now...

NOT!

Basil the Rat was the name given, Pontypridd was the town, and it would have been a prog sometime between July and November in 1991...or 1990...  Or possibly 1992.  I hope that narrows it down a bit?
