The future America is an irradiated waste land. On its East Coast, running from Boston to Washington DC, lies Mega City One- a vast, violent metropolis where criminals rule the chaotic streets. The only force of order lies with the urban cops called "Judges" who possess the combined powers of judge, jury and instant executioner. Known and feared throughout the city, Dredd (Karl Urban) is the ultimate Judge, challenged with ridding the city of its latest scourge -- a dangerous drug epidemic that has users of "Slo-Mo" experiencing reality at a fraction of its normal speed.

During a routine day on the job, Dredd is assigned to train and evaluate Cassandra Anderson (Olivia Thirlby), a rookie with powerful psychic abilities thanks to a genetic mutation. A heinous crime calls them to a neighborhood where fellow Judges rarely dare to venture- a 200 story vertical slum controlled by prostitute turned drug lord Ma-Ma (Lena Headey) and her ruthless clan. When they capture one of the clan's inner circle, Ma-Ma overtakes the compound's control center and wages a dirty, vicious war against the Judges that proves she will stop at nothing to protect her empire. With the body count climbing and no way out, Dredd and Anderson must confront the odds and engage in the relentless battle for their survival.

That looks pretty good.

I will admit that I actually liked the Sylvester Stallone version. This however also looks interesting. Maybe because I never rad the comics and have no preconcieved expectations.

+1

I used to read the original 2000 A.D. comics and it still looks pretty good. The Stallone version had a lot going for it to with respect to the original comics.

Can't wait for this, huge 2000AD fan ever since being a young lad.
The Stallone one was pretty good, mainly for the fact that it had the Angel brothers and an ABC warrior in it. Stallone was a pretty good Dredd.
Karl Urban looks bad ass as this version of Dredd, kind of gives it a Clint Eastwood feel though with his raspy accent.

Coincidently, AvCon is next month in Adelaide (Anime and Video games con) and i'm going as Judge Dredd. I'm modelling the costume after the comic version though, nearly finished it, but i'm going to make a new eagle pad.
