New "Dredd" trailer (Sept. 2012)

Did I miss a memo? I don't think I even knew that a new "Judge Dredd" movie was in the works. Well anyway, the first trailer has been released and it's simply called "Dredd."



Looks pretty bad-ass. At least Rob Schneider (ugh) has nothing to do with this one!

this looks cool. I never thought after the first movie that they would never make another.

Looks good! Anthrax better be on the soundtrack.

they had to wait till enough time had passed for people to forget the Stallone flick...

I remember Anthrax said they were happy they weren't asked to have "I Am the Law" included in Stallone's Judge Dredd after they saw it.

heh. I imagine the Stallone movie will pop up now since the new one is coming out.

Looks pretty decent. The tough guy voice kind of annoys me though.

Looks cool. I hope they remain a little more faithful to the comic this time and keep the helmet on.

I know is a Hollywood faux-pas to cover up the lead's face, but I hate that every comic book superhero spends less & less time in their disguises. In the Avengers, Captain America wears his trademark headgear for all of about 8 minutes on screen. Can't cover up that pretty face for too long, right?

They've got Dredd's creator, John Wagner, on side: http://www.themovies.co.za/2012/05/29/judge-dredd-creator-john-wagner-has-seen-the-new-film-and-he-really-likes-it/ so hopefully it'll live up to expectations.

If they don't use Anthrax, I wonder if Dark Angel's "Darkness Descends" will be used. That would be awesome, although I don't see that happening.

Yeah, they'll probably dust off the Stallone flick and give it the sooper dooper deluxe DVD/BluRay treatment so they can re-release it the same week that the new movie hits theaters.

looks interesting

Interesting trailer. I'm intrigued.

BTW, as bad as the Stallone Dredd movie was, if you ever watch the teaser trailer, it has one of the best theme scores ever written (by the late Jerry Goldsmith).

Goldsmith is great. I absoulty love the soundtrack to Secret Of NIMH. Unlike most cartoon movies of the early 80s that soundtrack had a big movie feel to it.

I thought that trailer looked pretty silly (especially the Christian Bale imitation voice). Of course I've never even seen a Dredd comic so I'm probably not the intended audience.

I've heard there is a new RoboCop in the works too.

Yep, that starts shooting in the Fall. Supposedly Gary Oldman and Samuel L. Jackson are in the cast.

I hope this means Samuel L. Jackson will get to say "I will motherf**kin' buy that for a motherf**kin' dollar."

Two great actors in it, maybe it will make it worth it.

I saw an extended trailer at the movie theater. He never appeared once without the helmet so I'm sure they are being more faithful.
