Yes, Yes , yes! That's it! Henry Ford! Thanks very much for the info. And yes, it was a dog vulture-damn my addled brain.

And anyway, Dave wasn't a "one trick pony", that accolade goes to Ed the talking horse. Who indeed was once a pony and talked!
With that fact in mind, anyone care to give the issues of 2000ad when Ed appeared?
On other talking animals in 2000ad tomfoolery, I would mind seeing that talking buzzard again. Was that a Gordon Rennie creation? Prog numbers aswell please?

How about they reanimate him(perhaps Judge Death could arrange this) or clone him? Dave Mark II anyone?

"I've never met an ape I didn't like." If you get that reference, there's a used toffee in it!

It's gotta be Dave.

With all the good will generated from the, rightfully, well received Rambo 4, I'd even be up for another Stallone Dredd flick(ducks)not that it will ever happen of coarse.

As far as I've read, the Odeon ban is nothing to do with the violent content of the film, but  a spat between the Odean chain of cinema's and Sony Pictures about the percentage of box office takings entitlement.

Hopefully the success of Rambo 5 "Soldier Of Liberty", will enable me to finance my long cherished epic Time-Travel/War Movie-"Neo Nazi Fetus Eaters." A double feature with "Coming Home In A Bodybag III.

Bruckheimer eat ya heart out! ;-)

Yeah. I caught this news on the Anchorbay site I frequent. It's a real shame that the box office takings will be effected in this way, but I'm sure it will clear up when it's released on DVD, it would appear there's a real market for this kind of old school action movie. Luckily Cineworld runs the roost round my way, so no such problems.

If one man could stop WWIII, that man would be Rambo!
There's the tagline right there!

It was fantastic gory fun. Dare I say I could even stomach another one?
Come on Sly, what about it?

Well Mega-City was used on Newsnight the other week I believe-so I was riffing off that. I appreciate Megalopolis has a longer usage.

Isn't "possibility" the same as prediction? 2000ad has often(most probably by accident)prophesised future events? Take the whole Mega-City concept, an event we can see happening in our world today and something 2000ad foresaw over 30 years ago and is a term even being used in the media.
Also it's a wild assumption to think that actors even give a shit about a potential comic book movie they're about to star in. You think Christian Bale read that many Batman comics before he was cast in Batman? And even when they do, it's no gaurantee the movie will turn out any better. Apparently Nic Cage is a massive Ghost Rider fan didn't make the film turn out any less of a dog.
The fact that Stallone even bothered to pick the odd issue of 2000ad when researching the role, is a miracle in itself.
The major problem with the Dredd movie was most probably down to the producers fault, who stumpted up all the money and were trying to recoup there investment by aiming the movie at the completely wrong demographic. That and Robocop got there first.

It could of been worse, it could of starred Schwarzenegger.
