Movie Update - John Wagner Facebook

[Kowalsky (formerly JudgeGumpty)]

Went up to London to see Alex Garland, Pete Travis and the DNA team today and look over what they've been up to. They've found some nice locations in South Africa and with some great CGI are a long way towards creating a convincing Mega-City One. They're keen to include a lot of Mega-City background detail - good graffiti, for instance - and while I can provide a lot of it I'll also be happy to pass on any good fan suggestions to them. What odd sort of shopfronts would there be - e.g. Male Pregnancy Advice Bureau - what odd sights might you see on the streets or in the home. All suggestions welcome!

As I said in my post I just want it to reflect what we see in the comics as best it can. Totally over the top crazy consumerism.

What a guy for asking for suggestions from the fans! Chucked my (slightly obvious) tuppence worth in.

Yup - The Pinstripe Freak going for some Shuggy is where it's at, and a Kenny Who? Art Mart.

I can't overstate how happy it makes me that John Wagner is being consulted over things like this. It just reinforces my belief that the property is being handled with respect and consideration and gives me faith that the movie will be worthwhile - fingers crossed its a hit and Wagner rakes in a fortune in royalties!

It couldn't be a more different story from the situation in 1994/5 - I vividly recall the story of John visiting the set, trying in vain to tell Danny Cannon the script was no good...

Having read a little of the new script[spoiler], my only concern is that it comes across as a bit too serious and grim - hopefully John's input will inject a little colour, humour and trademark Mega-City lunacy into the movie.[/spoiler]

Advert for an Ugly clinic. Sending up our obsession with perfect looks could only be a good thing.

I left a note for a stallone dredd style jimp getting the treatment from real judges
