- DREDD

| Judge Dredd |
Surprisingly the remake DREDD, seems to be quite a good
film, after the dismal Sly Stallone’s Judge Dredd in the 90’s it would have seemed
that this franchise couldn’t get any lower. However, screenwriter Alex Garland has
managed to surpass everyone’s low expectations for the film, and pulled off
something that is quite a pleasant watch.

With fans and critics equally loving the new Dredd, it’s not
a surprise that Garland wants to get back to the franchise and write another
story for the Judge.
At this stage, the studio hasn’t given the green light on a
potential sequel, but that hasn’t stopped Garland from formulating a few ideas
as to what direction it might take.
“From my point of view, the politics is a lot of what I want
to get into," said Garland. "There’s a lot of stuff that’s implied in
the first film that you could really explore a lot more of in the second. Dredd
is part of a police state. He’s a fascist
The subversives are sometimes the enemy in the comic books -
there’s something really interesting about pro-democracy terrorists, where the
bad guys are the people fighting for democracy. Of course they’re not the bad
guys, because you should be fighting for democracy. I would like to explore
that.”
Well that definitely seems very interesting, and we very
excitied to see in what direction will this franchise be headed. One thing is
for sure you can expect JUDGEMENT!
