Moved to new work page.


* FanNickname: Some fans have taken to calling the latest Dark Judges from "The Fall of Deadworld" storyline the ''"Grey Judges"'' to separate them from the main four of Death, Fear, Fire, and Mortis. It also appropriately designates them as lesser versions of the "true" Dark Judges, since Judge Death believed them to be too much like the living. However, although the Grey Judges were indeed part of a so-called Grey Division, this name has not appeared in print.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: There was supposed to be an arcade beat-'em-up developed by Creator/{{Midway|Games}}, but it got canned during location test phase. Its ROM was dumped on MAME and can be found in the Net; however, the game only has three stages ready, each interspersed with bonus rounds, and a final screen showing Judge Death that could be either a SequelHook or a teaser for one or more upcoming stages in the same game.

Added DiffLines:

* TroubledProduction: The film was based on a violent comic from the UK, but had very little exposure overseas so they were aiming for more widespread appeal by reducing the graphic material. This was not fully agreed upon by everyone which resulted in very conflicting tones. The writer said the screenplay was designed around PG-13, describing the more brutal elements as a GoryDiscretionShot, and was shocked to see bullet squibs and realistic dummies being ripped apart in the dailies. This added violence also ballooned the budget above an already pricey film. They also had pre-arrangements with toy lines and fast food promotions, which fell apart expensively behind the scenes when the first cuts of the film were rated X and they couldn't advertise to kids.

** Creator/RennyHarlin and Creator/RichardDonner were the first choices for director. Creator/TheCoenBrothers were offered the director's chair but turned it down. They chose to make ''Film/{{Fargo}}'' instead. Creator/RichardStanley was also asked, as his directorial debut ''Film/{{Hardware}}'' was also based on a 2000 AD comic.
