    I keep forgetting this movie coming out this year. Nothing looks bad about it, but it just seems to get over shadowed by everything else pretty easily.

    John Wagner apparently likes the movie. I bet it'll be pretty good.

    That's a really lovely looking poster. Kudos!

    I think this could be potentially brilliant. Alex Garland from 28 Days Later is involved and people are comparing it to The Raid in terms of action and violence. Wagner's approval is pretty important as well; he comes across as a pretty straight-forward guy in his opinions and never did the PR crap for the Stallone travesty, pretty much telling it like it is in terms of everything they got wrong.

    Hopefully it'll do well enough to spawn a bigger-budgeted sequel!

    It's Karl Urban , the guy is void of charisma. Better hope that it's full of action and gore and all such of mayhem to keep the audience occupied.

    Seriously? I thought he was pretty good as McCoy in Star Trek.

    After his turns as Eomer in LOTR and (especially) Bones in Star Trek (and other movies), yours is the only opinion of its kind I've run across. You must really not like him for some reason.

    I think they got the right actor for the role.

    So is Dredd. The guy's not known for his charm.

    Well, yeah; that is the plan. Urban's a decent actor, but this is a fast paced, violent action film for adults.

    Dredd doesn't spend any time brooding on rooftops because his folks were murdered or rescuing Mary Jane from hostage situations. Completely different films, and completely different performances required.

    As Preacher says, Dredd creator John Wagner's approval isn't easily won. When he visited the set of the 1995 film, he walked straight up to Director Danny Cannon and told him "you're filming the wrong f****** story". He was right about that awful film, and his thumbs up for the forthcoming effort is the best news possible.

    That poster is just EVIL.

    The film now has an official website

    Yeah: in the year of Avengers, the final film in the Batman Trilogy, and a Spider-Man reboot...plus a Superman reboot to follow next year, it'd be easy for this film to get lost in the shuffle even if it's awesome.
    Pull List; seems to be too long to fit in my sig...
