It's insane that they wanted the movie to take place in Neo New York instead of Neo Tokyo.

..and that Taika Waititi was going to direct it..

At least he better bring Karl Urban back for his planned Judge Dredd movie

Akira,Blade Runner,Judge Dredd comic and a few others defined what cyberpunk is.


It's shameful that a Dredd 2 hasn't happened yet. Hell,I'm still waiting for the TV show that was announced,a few years after the movie came out.

I don't think that JD Mega City One series is going to happen,one of Rebellion's main investors pulled the funding and dipped..they might make a video game out of it though

I saw the original a few days ago. When it was over I wondered "what the hell did I just watch?"
