In terms of films I actually recognise there doesn't seem to be much competition in September. Unless I count Resident Evil: Retribution, which I didn't even know existed until about 30 seconds ago. And even then I kinda lost interest in that franchise when it stopped being about zombies.

Ah that's better. I really love the ruthlessness that comes across in the top pic. 5 dead perps and  he is just strolling though.

Yeah, I'm torn between that and the Meg shot. Reminds me of Robocop.

However, it is possible that psychic abilities in the Dreddverse are a long-stranding part of the human genome, and are only occasionally expressed in a functional way in rare individuals.



PSI dept. was set up before the Atomic War of 2070 (see Origins) so it's possible Psionic ability is not considered a mutation as a result of radiation.

Good thinking, Batman. I was only re-reading that recently but the thought never occurred to me.

I think Empire's assumption may be correct in the case of the Meg shot at least. It kinda makes sense to play it safe and grab something from the trailer. Especially if you have a record of releasing spoiler information with your photos.  >:( Though I suppose we were all under the impression we'd see a trailer soon anyway.

We're hopeful that the stills look like they've been culled from a trailer, so we'll see something soon.

Why is what should possibly be one of the most exciting threads on the board have turned out to be one of the longest and most boring.

Because.

I meant to quote Michael but apparently I'm a bit slow.

Yep. The eagle is no slouch in the interesting detail department.

I'm not sure I like the inclusion of Dredd (or how they presented it at least) but I do like the tagline.

So...

Was there supposed to be some news announced today?

The only thing I'm aware of specific to today is what the Dredd page guy(s) said in response to the infamous Darren bashing their blank profile pic..

"Darren, when we have officially approved photos, we will. Look for them Friday."

I don't think the trailer will be attached to a film. Not debuting anyway. It is way cheaper for them to just put it on youtube, and more people will see it.

Does this actually happen? I know Dredd isn't a big Hollywood blockbuster but surely the trailer will be shown in cinemas won't it?

I don't see any reason why it wouldn't be shown in cinemas. There's a decent chance it could debut on the web though.
