Still no official release date on this sadly

*perks up for Karl*

definitely on the 'to see' list when it does come out - he'll be a great JD I think

 

[Penfold]

I might just make one of my very rare trips to the cinema for this one.

 

[SpideyGirl]

Exciting

 

[Dotsie]

I'm one of the very few people who enjoyed the Stallone film. But I'll definitely watch this one (unless the early reviews are dreadful).

 

[Penfold]

I enjoyed the Stallone movie as well, except for Dredd taking his helmet off (a massive step away from the Dredd tradition).

and trying to get it on with hershey

 

[SpideyGirl]

I like the Stallone one too

 

[Dotsie]

and trying to get it on with hershey

Nah, she was the one putting the moves on him

 

[chris.ph]

if i remember rightly didnt he get off with psi anderson on more than one occasion in the comic or is that just my active imagination

Check this out, the director has been tossed out by the studio! Alex Garland replacing to oversee post-production... comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=83035

 

[Dotsie]

Probably not a good sign

“During all stages of the filmmaking, Dredd has been a collaboration between a number of dedicated creative parties. From the outset we decided on an unorthodox collaboration to make the film. This situation has been misinterpreted. To set the record straight, Pete was not fired and remains a central part of the collaboration, and Alex is not seeking a co-director credit. We are all extremely proud of the film we have made, and respectfully suggest that it is judged on viewing when its released next year.”

Due out in Sept. I'm really looking forward to this but I'm still wondering how true they will remain to the comic strip in this one (like will he keep his helmet on?).

 

[Seimimac]

Apparently karl Urban is a Dredd fan, and said that he wouldn't remove his helmet.

Hope I'm right. I liked the Stallone movie too, but hated him removing his helmet and getting off with Hershey.

I'm already lookin' forward to Dredd 2 - Plleeeeeeeaaassseee have Judge Death!!!!!

 

[Dotsie]

I'm not sure if his chin is sufficiently strong for this role I'll watch it though.
