        This is how I find out Xena was pseudohistorical? I thought it was just pure fantasy.

          I thought that whole episode with caesar was fictional. But no. He really got kidnapped, really told his kidnappers to ask for more money, and told him he was going to crucify them.

          Spinoff from a Greek mythology based show. Some myths have real people. Also they kind of had to reach for new characters at that point.

        Around the same time Galavant rose and fell (ABC).

          Didn’t help that they felt the need to scramble the episodes, which made the character development very confusing

          Fox has a long history of killing off good sci-fi shows. Though I hope that’s over now that they’re Disney.

      Urban was pretty much perfect as Dredd and Olivia Thirlby was damn good as rookie Anderson. The film itself was pretty solid and did good with the budget they had.

      They could and should still do a sequel with the same actors. Aging would not be an issue with the characters.

        Yes, that role was made for Urban, not Stallone. He played it all with the helmet on while portraying every emotion, every thought, every Dreddism clearly written on half of a face. I enjoy his work so very much.

        Huh. I actually preferred Stallone’s somewhat more snarky Dredd, downside was that he played exactly the same character in Demolition Man.

      Stallone (left) played Judge Dredd in the 90s, but Carl Urban (right) played him in the 2012 reboot.

        I’m aware of this, I was thinking they used a still from the wrong one. Ironically because before the side-by-side, I thought the color palette was too bright to have been the one with Urban/Headey.
