Sudden relevance.

So tonight we were casting around for something to watch — after a week of no water, water, no water again, electrical problems, and the death of our big old non-HD TV — meaning we were in a crappy mood and looking for something, anything, diverting.

Which is when Dredd turned up on a back channel. Wrote about it on an old site. All our commenters agreed with my four star review of Dredd. That’s the backstory of the post.

This time it was listed with one star. ONE STAR.

Which tends to me make me think of the Motion Picture Arts Academy’s treatment of American Sniper.

Somebody who confronts evil and kills it is worth only one star. No Oscar. No respect. No honor.

I get it. To hell with everyone who thinks that way.
