Karl Urban as Judge Dredd?

nah I think he's too young(edit: looking), I hope they actually try and Keep Dredd to the comic version. You know keep the helmet on this time ffs? I don't even think he showed his face during the Long Walk?

Massively underrated comic, huge world with some great ideas. If it had been a Marvel creation we'd have a 5 films now and he'd be bigger than Spiderman.

We need to give Clint some Rejuv treatment! 



Clint of around 25 years ago would have been perfect! I mean It's Callahan in the future after all. I think the way Clint does that psychotic twist to his mouth when angry/killing someone would have been the exact fit for Dredd.

I just can't think of anyone who can fit at the mo, the actor needs to be tall, but not a mound of muscle. Not a pretty boy either and around late30's- 40ish. That is the age I always picture Dredd at.

Stallone did a decent Judge Dread, despite the blue eyes.

I hated it/him in the role.

You'd really hope Marvel didn't get there hands on it, could you imagine it being PG?

Anyway potential to be 'Sin City' big, without the red tape that has seen Sin City 2 and 3 not being made.

Totally agree, my point was if 2000AD had the coverage of Marvel then Dredd, Rogue Trooper, Slaine etc would be massive. I love both comics and Marvel is a splendid thing, but 2000AD had better stories.

So many awesome JD stories -the Judge Child story would be great as a movie - btw -anyone recall going to the Powerstation in Auckland and seeing the giant Judge Dredd/2000Ad mural on the wall up the back
