According to a report over at IGN, the international film sales company "IM Global" (who are currently promoting the upcoming reboot at the Toronto International Film Fest) are referring to the $45 million project with a new title and synopsis!
"DREDD takes us to the wild streets of Mega City One, the lone oasis of quasi-civilization on Cursed Earth. Judge Dredd (Karl Urban) is the most feared of elite Street Judges, with the power to enforce the law, sentence offenders and execute them on the spot - if necessary. The endlessly inventive mind of writer Alex Garland and the frenetic vision of director Pete Travis bring DREDD to life as a futuristic neo-noir action film that returns the celebrated character to the dark, visceral incarnation from John Wagner and Carlos Ezquerra's revered comic strip."
What do you think about them dropping the "Judge" from the title? Is this a good idea or will it perhaps confuse fans of the character and regular movie-goers alike? Share your thoughts in the usual place!
