This week in IFIS!
My dear Earthlings,
This week is going to be showcasing a movie which deserves far more coverage than it go- DREDD!
For those of you who've managed to avoid the 80's film version of Judge Dredd (and don't worry we're not watching that) , let me give you an idea of what to expect:
Some time in the future, North America's cities stretch across continents. The rest is irradiated wasteland, populated by mutants who manage to survive the intense radiation.
For those who live in the cities, the Judges are are judge, jury and executioner all in one.
Dredd is one of the best.
His partner is starting her first day.
Now all these two have to deal with is Ma-Ma, an insane crime boss who doesn't want her executions attracting attention.
Unfortunately for the Judges, she's locked down the building she controls, with them inside it.
And set a bounty on their heads.
And set every gang member in the building on their tail- all forty-odd floors worth...
***
Due to ALT2 being requisitioned for a guest speaker's talk, we are NOT IN ALT2 this week.
WE WILL BE IN FOUNDERS MAIN LECTURE THEATRE FROM 7 PM. If you arrive earlier, please don't go in as the venue is in use until 7.
If anyone has a copy of the movie, please let me know.
***
Elections are going to be on the last Tuesday of Term- that's the 19th of March people so start thinking about running. I warn you now, due to a shortage of exams, I will be remaining acting president til the end of the year (because I know how some people's exam schedules are likely to be insane).
***
Pub night at the Alma will be on Thursday as usual. 7pm onwards, please do come and be sociable little gremlins.
That's all folks! See you there!
President and committee
