There's a scene early in the leaked script that I interpreted as a direct homage to the first Robocop movie - [spoiler]Dredd shoots through an innocent bystander in order to kill a perp who is escaping into a crowd, then dispassionately informs the terrified victim that he aimed so as to miss any of their vital organs and an ambulance is on it's way.[/spoiler]

Great stuff! That's just the sort of OTT, tongue placed firmly in cheek, Dredd/Mega City One we all know and love. It seems the film is staying close to the spirit of the comic.
coming at a cinema near you soon

Hard to say. From what I've seen/heard, it looks like the humour will be blacker and less whimsical than the comics - more Verhoeven than Wagner. There definitely is humour in the script, despite what many people say - but it's very dry and perhaps doesn't read that funny on the page - there's one or two scenes that should get a big laugh in the cinema provided they're handled well. I should stress again that I've only read the first 12 or so pages of the script so I'm speculating.

Dredd's dialogue - what I read of it - is spot on Wagner though; gruff, terse, cynical - note perfect. He sure as shit ain't gonna be getting all teared up in the locker room about his poor old bro - "I judged him"....

That does looks like FX effect test work?

Yeah I think it must be the compositor showing his work. You can see a  whitish line and some lights of a far off building pop up behind the store on the pictures right.

Cheers Goaty.  I can't tell if any of these Judges actually are Dredd.

Knowing how Lionsgate operate, I'd say someone is going to be in some serious shit over this.
