Sign the official petition to see DREDD return!

By now, most of you are more than aware that we’re massive fans of Dredd 3D, the international flick which was shot locally this side. It’s the kind of film that completely mind-wipes the memory of the 1995 Stallone version of the character from your mind. And it may also be the reason why myself and Kervyn have been riding around on our scooters, wearing buckets on our heads and judging people.

Dredd 3D was a damn good film, that was true to the source material. So naturally, it tanked at the box office. Chances of a sequel are pretty much slim at this point. Unless you make your voice heard that is.

2000AD, the comic book and weekly publisher of all things Dredd have unleashed an online petition which they’ll be sending to Lionsgate, hoping to get a sequel kickstarted on the cult film. The petition currently has over 10 000 signatures, but a few million more couldn’t hurt. All you have to do is click here and subscribe, and your automatic death sentence of ignoring this awesome idea will be rescinded.

Dredd may have tanked at the box office, only making a global total of $34 million, but the DVD and Blu Ray sales were something else, as the film was the highest seller of 2012 in that home entertainment market. I’d commit several crimes which would have me sent to the iso-cubes for a Dredd sequel. How about you?

    I’m not the biggest fan of going to cinemas so did not go there to watch this, but I did buy the 3D blu-ray, signing this petition NOW.

    Movie was a flop I reckon…Can’t get past the fact his helmet is too big for his head…Acting seemed forced to say the least…Story had nothing in it at all…Absolutely no memorable moments in the entire flick…

    I think it was an unofficial petition, then Rebellion/2000 AD got on board. It also got Karl Urban’s endorsement. And yes I have signed it!

    C’mon guys, Dredd reaped in loads of cash in DVD/Blu Ray sales alone. Do not underestimate the potential. Fan power has got to rule in this one!

    Yeah, I rather liked the film. It had a terrible doof doof techno sound track which I had to look past, but I enjoyed the film a lot. I would love a sequel.

    I don’t know lot about the Judge Dredd universe. I have only read a couple of stories here and there. I did know who Anderson was and thought they portrayed her pretty well.
