Glasgow Film Festival

We are proud to announce the Judge Minty will be screening at the Glasgow Film Festival.

Tuesday the 19th of February at 18:30

It will be followed by a discussion regards making a fan film. The programme says 'led by Steven Sterlacchini', but anyone who has seen my attempts at public speaking will be relieved, that I will only be a part of the discussion, not leading it. Hopefully another member of Team Minty might be able to make it as well.

I've had a quick look through the rest of the programme and there are some amazing films being shown, so we are honoured that they have found a place for us. During the festival Dredd is also being screened and a discussion with John Wagner and Colin MacNeil!

As always, thanks to Rebellion for giving permission for this public screening.

Belfast Heroes & Legends

We are happy to announce that Judge Minty will be screening at Heroes & Legends, Belfast, 16th and 17th of February.

Judge Minty Reviews

Thank you to all the people who have taken the time to come and see Judge Minty at it's first three screenings. We've had lots of great feed back on the film. Both shows at Leeds Film Festival and Thought Bubble were well attended with very positive audience reaction.

A third cast and crew screening on Saturday 17th of November was also attended by a number of 2000AD creators including our Dredd, Greg Staples and Judge Dredd co-creator - John Wagner. As nerve racking as it was to have a screening with so many important Dredd creators, any other screening will seem calm in comparison. It was also a cool atmosphere for Minty lead man Edmund Dehn to watch the film for the first time.

John Wagner was kind enough to describe the film as 'brilliant'.

A big thank you to Lisa and Clark for allowing us to screen at Thought Bubble and for organising another amazing convention. And of course thanks to Rebellion for giving us permission to show the film, which we need for all public screenings.

I've had a quick look on the net for some reviews and found these. It's been great to hear comments on some of the more subtle aspects of the film which I thought would only be noticed if someone watched it a couple of times. There are some eagle eyed Dredd fans out there!

Foldsfive Review

I would have liked to have composed a longer and more in depth account of the the screenings and all the people we spoke with, but we are immediately back to work. We are now researching suitable events to submit Minty to for screening. There is no secret master plan or schedule. Up until this point we have been completely focused of finishing the film, so have not been actively looking into screening opportunities. We are thinking globally and as soon as we have any firm dates we will announce them.

Judge Minty Screenings for November

Judge William Minty has spent his entire adult life policing the violent streets of Mega-City One - and now he's slowing down. When a lapse of judgement almost ends his life, he knows that it's time to quit. He can choose to teach in the Academy, or he can leave the city and walk alone out into the anarchy of the Cursed Earth, taking law to the lawless.

Thought Bubble, Leeds' Comic Art Festival

Thought Bubble is the UK's largest annual event which celebrates sequential art in all it's forms. The screening room has a capacity of around 50 - 60 people.

Both these screening are at reasonably small venues, so plan ahead if you wish to see the film at these events.

We will be planning more showings as soon as opportunities become available. We are hoping to submit to a number of international film festivals. For some of these a requirement is that the film has not been released on the internet. This will delay making Judge Minty available to view on the internet for a little while.
