Judge Minty wins at the Wasteland Film Festival

I didn't post this on this blog when it first happened, despite being super cool news, because I wanted to focus on the two recent screenings until they were over.

Judge Minty has won both, 'Best Action Film' and the 'Audience Award' at the Wasteland Film Festival, which is part of Wasteland Weekend.

It's always great whenever an event selects Minty for screening, but to win something is amazing. Especially at such a stunning event as Wasteland Weekend.

"Join over a thousand fans coming from all over the the United States (and beyond) to gather in the Southern California desert for a four-day post-apocalyptic party.  Set up camp at our wasteland compound, surrounded by specially-built sets.  Costumes are required and post-apocalyptic campsites and vehicles are encouraged.  Live for four days in a world pulled straight out of the Mad Max movies, beyond the grip of so-called civilisation. Top DJs and bands from all over will provide the soundtrack, fire dancers and bonfires will light up the night, and modified vehicles will shake the earth with their engines."

Judge Minty at The Lakes Comic Art Festival

We already posted about this on Facebook and Twitter when it was first announced, so this is just a reminder.

It will be screen as part of a double bill with the brilliant official film 'Dredd', which will have Judge Dredd co-creators, John Wagner and Carlos Ezquerra in attendance! John Wagner will also be introducing Judge Minty.

Steven Sterlacchini, Steve Green and a number of other team members will also be at the event.

The exhibition itself, called simply Judge Dredd, features a gallery of original artwork mostly from the pages of 2000AD and Judge Dredd the Megazine between the 1970s and the 2000’s. The work has been loaned from collectors and the artists/creators themselves. The second half of the exhibition presents the work of illustrators, photographers, painters, prop sculptors and film makers who grew up with the character.

You can also join us earlier on the opening day to take part in the national Big Draw campaign’s theme of Draw Tomorrow. 

Expect free drop-in creative activities for all ages covering themes of future cities, future humans and future stories. Visitors can work alongside artists to create a giant Judge Dredd sculpture and use their imagination to craft what tomorrow might look like. 

Creative events run from 10am until 4pm. Entry to the exhibition and Big Draw activities are free of charge. Under 8s must be accompanied by a participating adult.
