Alexzandvar posted:They are working on a sequel, however if you think that they are going to do Judge Death or some other crazy poo poo be ready for disappointment. The Dredd 3D universe isn't a copy of the comic universe. Alex Garland has openly stated the intent was to put Death in Dredd, but that introducing Judge Dredd and Judge Anderson was much more important to actually make Death's appearance work and so he was cut from the script after many revisions. If they get a trilogy out of it, the intent is for Death to show up and be a major character, which is why Anderson is even in the movie. mind the walrus posted:Holy gently caress that is the most British comics thing I've read in a long while. Please tell me someone named Morrison, Moore, or Ellis came up with that one. Someone get that in a movie now. You think Dredd is a British as all gently caress comic, read some Slaine. Judge Dredd is a very British take on post-apocalyptic future America, but nothing like the same people's take on Celtic history/mythology. Also, "The Horned God," is really good, because the Biz is awesome. MrQwerty fucked around with this message at 07:46 on Aug 6, 2014 |

Tujague posted:Also, wasn't there a part where she gets locked out on a balcony and the movie pulls a fade-to-black "SEVERAL HOURS LATER....?" Nope. Dredd called it in and said they had to get back in and keep moving. Screen faded out but that was to avoid the 'how do they climb back into the hole that's like 25ft above their heads on a balcony with no ladders?'

Dredd is a loving great movie. However there is one problem: it doesn't end with Karl Urban banging Lena Headey in slow motion. Karl Urban is completely naked except for the helmet.

I also think that there's the grudging respect that even though she 'knew' that she had failed, she still retained her commitment to The Law and continued on with Dredd right to the end. She had washed out, but she still kept on going because it's not about becoming a Judge it's about an unswerving approach to upholding what's 'right' (read: nightmarishly facist"), and that's the one quality in another person that Dredd is physically capable of respecting.

happyhippy posted:Did they ever show the cubes in the comic? It varies depending on what the story requires. Sometimes they're solitary cubes, sometimes more like a Californian prison, and sometimes an open prison run by hippy councillors trying to reintegrate them into society (usually just before a breakout). One prison is just a big platform in the middle of a busy traffic junction where perps are just dumped and abandoned.

Where Dredd's idea of utilitarianism is something like "The most law enforcement for the most citizens is the most correct".

Cream_Filling posted:no the scene where they both torture the same guy in front of an american flag and her form of torture works better seems to pretty clearly make the point I don't think you quite understand. I agree that Dredd is the epitome of fascism throughout most of the film, and that we're supposed to see him as such. Equally Anderson is a form of this, but she breaks the rules by letting the Ulillillia look-a-like go, an act of mercy. Dredd tells the boss at the end that she passed, covering up this act of mercy and thus sanitising his form of fascism for the audience, where we can go 'aw, he's got a heart too'.

Comic book Dredd is undoubtedly a fascist but the way Megacity 01 and Dredd were presented in the movie what exactly are the judges supposed to do? There simply aren't enough law enforcement agents to maintain peace and the whole thing is teetering on the edge of the abyss.

Probably, but it could just be a practical thing. Anderson would be an asset to the Law, and she's clearly a lot better than a bunch of judges already out there. I mean they just got through murdering a bunch of them.
