Judge Dredd Movie is Green Lit!

[CraveNoir]

Yup, that is Tim Bradstreet's sig.

For a promo image it's fine, but I hope the costume designer designs the uniform as a cohesive whole rather than throw together bits of different artists' styles.

Bolland elbow pads and respirator
Robinson glove pouch
Ranson Eagle
Robin Smith Badge
is that a 1995 buckle? *shudder*

[Noisybast]

That looks remarkably like one of Wake's Termight Replicas badges.

[COMMANDO FORCES]

Is that a mag feeding into the weapon from the top, if so that seems to be in the way of the sights 
Now this bit is not about how many links are in the chain but that amount shown seems to not be able to give any freedom when Dredd moves about, it's too strained already.

So its got a 50 mill budget...
And its in 3D...
I had read/heard that to convert a film to 3D costs about 10-15 mill..

So that leaves 35 - 40 mill to make the actual movie.

Is that to convert though, rather than to film in? I assume the latest generation of cameras will do it natively or am I being naive

Thats to convert.. i think it was an article about converting Toy Story to 3D or something like that.

[Buddy]

That looks remarkably like one of Wake's Termight Replicas badges.

Was thinkin that meself!

And that's Arnold Schwarzenegger's jaw!

[dracula1]

Combat trousers?, more like combat nappy!!! Hope they reference the 'Minty' teams efforts.

[Danbo]

Wagner,Garland and the D9 producers involvement...it's starting to look promising.

[JOE SOAP]

Hope it all works out but I'd prefer to see them ditch the 3D element and spend the money on trying to make it a better film. The latest 3D tech ain't been out in the mainstream that long and it still may turn out to be a passing gimmick as it has in the past, which will in turn make Dredd dated if they are shooting the shots with 3D specifically in mind.

[Danbo]

Agreed,drop the 3D,only it brings in money and for the sequel that can only be good.I hate 3D though,give me a headache.

[IAMTHESYSTEM]

The rifle couldn't be a made over SLR, standard issue to the soldiers of the British Army in the 1970's?

I'm sure I can see a carry handle folded down just on top of the magazine.

I'm no soldier but I remember the sort of shape from newscast about Northern Ireland and the Falklands War.  

Could this image be subtly pointing towards Judge Dredd in shoot to kill controversy?

You decide dear reader!

[vzzbux]

Deffo not an SLR trust me. Looks more like a bastardisation of one on the M16's

Edit I am wrong it is a bastardisation of the Belgian FN, from which the SLR is derived.

[IAMTHESYSTEM]

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.

[JOE SOAP]

I'd like to seem him get that into his boot holster.

[W. R. Logan]

Can't wait to hear who's cast as Dredd.

Forget that, who is going to be cast as Judge Logan?

[Jim_Campbell]

Forget that, who is going to be cast as Judge Logan?

Phone not rung yet, Logan?

Cheers!
