There's a script review out for the film which divulges the basic details of the story (summed up as "Die Hard set in the world of Blade Runner") theplaylist.blogspot.com/2010/07/details-alex-garlands-judge-dredd.html I like the sound of it, and think it's nice and refreshing it's focussing on what seems to be just another case for Dredd, rather than the overblown fit-as-much-stuff-from-the-comics-in-at-once approach of the Stallone film. They can establish Dredd's character and his abilities as a cop before doing bigger stuff in sequels.
