Hey, look: It’s the trailer for the new Dredd movie:
…Okay, I have to say: I have no idea how I feel about that. The drug plot seems very “un-Judge Dredd-y,” but the “Judges in a block that they have to fight their way through” idea…? Yeah, that works. Guess the end result will rest on whether or not Karl Urban manages to make Joe Dredd come to life or not…
Dredd is released in September. I can only hope that this’ll lead a lot more people to pick up the various 2000AD collections that’re out there these days…

The trailer doesn’t set up this future world very well. It’s just good guys versus bad guys. And didn’t I just see a Japanese movie recently about police having to fight their way out of a building controlled by criminals?

Uhmm, yeah, if the whole building is hostile and is the epicentre of a major illegal drug manufacturing operation and the leader is holed up in there, why they hell would they just not SMART BOMB the freaking place and be done with it??????
I hope there is more substance to it than what the trailer showed…
