Fifteen years in the academy
He was like no cadet they'd ever seen
A man so hard, his veins bleed ice
And when he speaks he never says it twice
They call him Judge, his last name is Dredd
So break the law, and you may wind up dead
Truth and justice are what he's fighting for
Judge Dredd the man, he is the law
DROKK IT

Why this wasn't in either the Stallone film or the Urban film I'll never know. It's a song about Dredd! You'd think it'd be a shoo-in for a end titles song.

I like the first Dredd, so it'll be interesting what they might come up with for the sequel. Karl Urban's a cool guy to watch. Watch him in the show Almost Human! Show's worthwhile for him alone.

So you love Dredd but hate Man of Steel?
But he's a comic book character that kills people!

I believe Brad hated the writing in Man of Steel and not that Superman killed someone.

It's almost like Judge Dredd and Superman are different characters who are designed around having completely different attitudes towards morality.

Hand of Onan

Lloydfan,
Dredd is a satirical hyper violent British fascistic comic character from the 1980s not an inspirational American godlike superhero from the 1930s, The political and moral reference points are entirely different. Comparing Dredd to Superman is just a non starter..
But personally, I didn't have a problem with Superman killing as such. But I did have a problem with endless sub Michael Bay explosions, incoherent narrative structure, wooden performances, exposition, jerky cam, CGI lens flares and most of all the insane fanboys who will not accept that some of us think MOS was just a bloated lumpen mess with the entertainment value of a selfserious 13 year old nerd's story ideas as outlined on the most pointless thread on IMDB.

Jackson

4/10/2014 04:04:45 pm

Sigh, you know I could say the same about Dredd, it was nothing more than the product from a cheap studio who shot a movie in South Africa with poor CGI effects and shallow witty humor and dialogue written by what sounded like a 13 year old who just learned cussing. It's main character is a rephrensible piece of garbage that should have died at the end because he wasn't even the least bit sympathetic. Sorry, he's worse than Zack Syder's try at making a different Superman from Richard Donners and being booed and hissed by comic book nerds. As for Michael Bay, that isn't really that much of an insult, considering Bay directed The Rock a really great action movie that has better shot action scenes than Dredd. At least Bay's action scenes don't look like anime suddenly due to the bad CGI slowmotion he puts into it.

For a while now, I've been playing this little game; largely inspired by Team Snob and the crew doing the midnight reviews, and it goes something like this:

every time ANY new movie comes out, I look at it, I consider it, and I think to myself: "THIS is what we have in theaters instead of a Dredd sequel".

This little game gets really drepressing, REALLY fast. Seeing Urban himself say this, it makes me feel better.

Jackson

4/9/2014 11:25:45 am

I saw Dredd, honestly afterwards I didn't want a sequel, I wanted my money back.

Nah, it doesn't hurt that much, especially when it's just my opinion. And there's nothing wrong about my opinion.

I liked the first Dredd movie. If a sequel is made, I would support it by seeing it in the theatre and buy the DVD/Blu Ray if I liked it. With any luck, maybe we can get a trilogy!

Terrence Cain

Signed it. Now I hope they make it. Dredd 2 with Keith Urban would be grand. :)

My bad. I meant Karl Urban. Sorry Karl.

Sign it, not going to change a thing, you know how these things work. A sequel is not likely. You'll probably get a comic book or an animated movie but most likely no.

4/9/2014 10:09:04 am

Has there been any talk about WHY Dredd apparently didn't catch on? General suspicion about "dark" comic book movies? Being overshadowed by something else coming out at the time? Stigma from the original, like the Wikipedia article says? Bad timing? Or is this a Pacific Rim/Grown Ups 2 situation? Because according to Box Office Mojo it came out alongside House at the End of the Street and a bunch of other movies I'd never heard of before I looked it up. It just seems inexplicable.

Jackson

4/9/2014 11:24:11 am

I actually got why the movie didn't make money. The movie honestly looked cheap as all hell to me. It looked nearly like a DTV movie.

Sam

4/9/2014 11:31:28 am

Because Judge Dredd is not a real popular character in America. Simply put, plus the movie comes from Lionsgate and is not either Expendables or Hunger Games, of course it bombed.

Adam

4/9/2014 06:34:29 pm

The (at least in my area) limited release and piss-poor marketing sure didn't help.

It's do that well in theaters, but it started selling really well when it came to DVD.

Jackson

4/10/2014 12:01:26 am

I find that hard to believe, not that many people I see buy it. It's not sold out where I'm at. So no I think it had a small upsurge of sales when it came out, but it's really not doing that well.

...or somebody else, but basically more English works of Ultraviolent Grimdarkness needs to be translated to the big screen.

The amount of denial and delusion is high on this board.

Baron

4/9/2014 01:35:40 pm

Is it? Because looking through this board I see no one who 100% believes that this is for sure something that will happen, nor is anyone in denial that the movie didn't do well at the box office. I see a lot of people who really like a movie and see no problem taking a few seconds out and sign a petition to hope for the best.

Robert

4/10/2014 12:04:44 am

You really think signing that thing waves a magic wand in Lionsgate's face to make another one. They are too busy saying you know what, Hunger Games is making a lot of money, instead of Dredd let's make several more copies of that.

David link

4/9/2014 09:32:40 pm

Thanks for providing the cynicism to balance it out.

Robert

4/10/2014 12:05:49 am

I didn't like the movie that much. Typical cheap Lionsgate actioner with bad CGI blood that looked like Fruit Juice. The slow motion scenes looked like anime.

David link

4/10/2014 01:17:58 am

But just because you didn't like it doesn't mean those who did are in denial or deluded, either for liking it, or for trying to get a sequel made.

I gather a lot of people found the film to be an antidote to the modern PG-13 action movie designed by committee to appeal to the widest audience possible. If there's a demand for more movies like that then all the better.

Robert

4/10/2014 02:35:17 am

David, you're not in denial or delusion for liking it. You're in delusion and denial for thinking a sequel is remotely possible at this juncture and a bunch of signatures doesn't exactly convince Lionsgate of anything.

I hate to say it, but Dredd was probably designed by a Committee of people too. Now granted a small independent committee, but still a committee. I hardly see it as antidote considering small independent R-rated action movies are still not big at the box office as evidenced by Sabotage failing miserably.

You people are deluded again in thinking that this is the antidote to anything, as it wasn't anything more than a cheap actioner that was made by Lionsgate which is basically the same as Cannon.

Plus when the movie got released it was beat out by two other movies, End of Watch, an R-rated cop drama with plenty of violence and action, and House on Dead End Street.

House got it because of Jennifer Lawrence, End of Watch Surprisingly got it, it surprises me that one got #1 because David Ayer action/cop dramas usually tank at the box office. But it was an R-rated action movie with drama and it made a strong amount of money. So I think Dredd wasn't needed or really that popular. But fantasy land must be a nice place to live in with this movie. All I saw was a cheap uninspired mess of CGI and shallow dialogue.

And as for all this committee talk with movies, I'm sick of it. Committees make movies, sorry, deal with it. It happens, back in the day of the 80s and 90s, Committees made those too. You think pure R-rated action movies of the 80s were individual thought, nope. Die Hard was created by a committee, so was Lethal Weapon, Commando and whole lot of other action movies rated R.

Robert

4/10/2014 02:54:24 am

I have to also say that it's also notable that Django Unchained, a not mainstream movie with bloody violence and action scenes made a better sum of money than this movie did. Maybe that's just because Quentin Tarantino. But whatever, it proves that people will shill out for some R-rated movies and not others.

I don't think Paranormal Activity began life as a mainstream project either, and look at it, now a multi-sequel franchise that is all R-rated horror movies. Dredd failed because it had no interest to Americans who had barely or never read the comic book and who weren't familiar with Karl Urban really. The reason why the last one made anything more was because Stallone's name was attached to it and that's pretty much guaranteed to get people in seats, but still it didn't even make that much money. Judge Dredd really is just kind of a floundering concept on film, they can't make it successful at all, it's the same diemma that plagues The Punisher movies.

Furthermore, last time I checked IM Global,DNA films, Reliance Big Entertainment, who were all involved in the making of the film were companies and answered to committees. So no, you're still going through a group who decides what's going to happen to your movie.

Maybe a little more time should have been given in making the movie better and not cheap looking and maybe the script should have been less shallow and actually made Dredd look heroic in a dirty Harry way. But I guess that's true to the comics, if that's true, I'm glad I never read the comics. Because Dredd's just a psychotic killer cop with no real sympathies from the audience.

David link

4/10/2014 03:26:15 am

Well I've yet to actually see Dredd so I'm just going off the fact that it was far better received by fans of the comic (and people with generally similar tastes in movies as myself) than the 90's version. I assume a big part of it's appeal is actually that deep down it is just a "cheap actioner", maybe that's all a Judge Dredd movie needs to be. I understand that its plot is very lean and straightforward and I have a feeling that that minimalism and orientation towards straight-up action may account for the praise it has received? I'm just trying to be as objective as I can here but to me fans passionately speaking up for a more obscure, lower budget action movie is ultimately a good thing. Let them have their hope and let them try their hardest to get a movie they want to see made. Stranger things have happened.

As for the whole "committee" thing, maybe that complaint is somewhat extraneous and I don't know if those older action movies were composed in that way or not but I do know that they seemed to be made by groups of people far more concerned with making a good piece of cinema than a piece of cinema that is compromised by a need to appeal to the widest demographic possible.

If Die Hard was indeed created by a committee then it was a far different committee than the one who made Die Hard 5. Maybe my complaint should have been that I'd rather see movies made my film-makers as opposed to movies made by accountants.

Nathan

4/10/2014 04:41:55 am

Robert, you know you wasted far more time writing those essays on your dislike of Dredd than the few seconds it took for those of us to sign the petition. I could write several paragraphs like you did, but I've already signed the petition (which hurts NO ONE), and now I'm going to go about my day and enjoy the sunshine.

Robert

4/10/2014 07:35:32 am

Nathan
I already pointed out I don't care if you sign it or not. It won't change anything. I'm just arguing with David about the supposed wrongfulness of him thinking this movie was an antidote to anything. '

David
Most of all of Die Hard's sequels were made by committees. Die Hard 3, how do we appeal to a mass fan base of this, stick another Gruber brother in there. Die Hard 4, make it PG-13. I really don't know much about how they tried to with Die Hard 5 besides have him say his catchphrase. I'm going to blashphemy here and say at least Die Hard 5 was something I expected to disappoint me, and it did that, some it's actions scenes were exceptional and not just Dredd's run and gun crap and some of the shootings weren't filled with fake CGI blood or anything. Yes the script was sorely lacking but it wasn't a smug, shallow script that flaunted it's abilities to say cuss words like a 13 year old. Or was the characters calling each other bitches suppose to be cute or funny.

Kyle. N

4/9/2014 02:52:09 pm

Already signed the petition. There was a article on nerdist.com about it and I immediately signed on. Dredd is one of the best comic book movies I have ever seen and it deserves a sequel. That movie was a text book example of the right writers, director, actors, and vision in adapting a comic book movie. Everyone involved knew what they were doing and it resulted in a near perfect Judge Dredd adaptation. the writers have said that if they were allowed to make a sequel it would focus on Judge Dredd's origin, the cursed Earth, and mutants. I am praying that this petition bears fruit.

John K

4/9/2014 07:24:56 pm

I have to admit I did not like Dredd. The story was far too straightforward, dull, and stared a protagonist who I had no reason to root for. Many people praise the action in the movie but the poor story failed to get me invested in it.

That said, I signed the petition anyway. Carl Urban may not have had much to work with in my opinion but he delivered a solid performance regardless. I would like to see a more creative writing team handle the Judge Dredd character.

Jackson

4/10/2014 12:08:03 am

If you call growling out your lines like Clint Eastwood, acting. Yes I didn't root for Dredd, in fact when he got nearly fatally shot, I felt it better that he just die then survive through that Deus Ex Machina of healing wounds garbage. The psychic girl could of taken out Lena Headly.

John K

4/10/2014 03:54:45 am

I strongly disagree. Carl Urban's acting was that of a hardened seen-it-all cop. I may not be fond of Judge Dredd but that >is< Judge Dredd. Carl Urban's acting was not the problem.

And let's talk about the psychic girl for a second. I found it hard to take her character seriously with the constant nativity she exhibited and ultra pretty face. It felt completely out of character for Dredd to have approved of her after the actions she took in the course of the movie. If the movie ended the way you purpose I would have hated the film entirely.

4/10/2014 10:16:23 am

Personally, I'd rather have a movie all about Anderson. For me, the only scenes where Dredd came to life were the Anderson scenes that involved Dredd in no way, shape, or form. Dredd himself turned out to be a hideously boring character.

End of Watch provided far more of what I wanted from a 2000 A.D. comic, as in cop drama riddled with poignant social commentary and light doses of satire. Dredd was a massive disappointment.

Robert

4/10/2014 04:17:07 pm

Exactly, I mean Dredd was about as horrible as the characters he was shooting, he and MA MA should both enjoy throwing people off buildings while injecting them with drugs. I mean I get it, Dredd is suppose to be a really mean I AM THE LAW cop, but here's he's basically Robert Z'Dar's character from Maniac Cop. He runs around murdering people left and right, no real insight into his character, he's just really psychotic and brutally murders bad guys.

Hell it takes sending in other Judges, a couple of hilarious looking guys who looked like they escaped from a comic-con convention to actually give Dredd any challenge. Otherwise he's' this lame Terminator like creature that can't be stopped by any normal criminal.

I hate to say it to the all the Comic Book fans, Stallone even though he threw the helmet off and had an annoying comic sidekick. He actually seemed more human and relatable than Karl Urban's Terminator Cop with no background.

jegsimmons

4/11/2014 01:30:33 am

You kind of missed the point of the movie.

Robert

4/11/2014 02:28:57 am

I missed the point of the movie? What point, the future is shit, all cops are corrupt or brutal sociopaths. Was this the point of the comic book? I hope not, then the comic book is pure shit. I'm sorry, what sympathy or joy was I suppose to gain out of this movie? Brutal violence committed against people who aren't sympathetic but on the other hand the character doing the brutal violence is not sympathetic or even the slightest interesting.

Hell, his character has no arc at all, again Stallone's did have an arc. Urban's is just a faceless Terminator with no real emotion or background, he's not Robocop either, Robocop at least had shreds of humanity to keep him from being nothing more than a dull terminator with no distinct character traits. I'm sorry, am I picking this movie apart?

I apologize that I do, but I really thought this movie was one of the worst pieces of garbage I saw in 2012. Karl Urban's Dredd makes Jason Statham's Chev Chelios look like an upstanding member of society. I guess that was the point of this satire-less garbage that had no real impact and just scenes of brutality for the sake of being brutal and stupid. All under the false impression of being smart and intelligent but really being nothing more than a movie that is concerned with the red stuff and whatever outrageous imagery it can throw at people.

Again I state the script sounded like something a hormonal teenager would write while being pissed off at the world.

Jeff

4/11/2014 03:56:40 am

Robert, you really are dedicating a whole lot of your free time to a movie that you supposedly hate. How do fans of the film who want to see a sequel hurt you in any way shape or form? Why do you even care this much? Seriously man, why not spend time on something you actually like, who cares if there's a group of people who like something that you don't like. You're spending way more time ranting about something you don't like than fans of the movie spent signing this petition. Hell, you've wasted more time with your rants than fans on this thread talked about how they liked the movie.

This movie pisses me off more than most. That's why, I already stated that I don't care if you sign that bloody petition or not. No sequel's coming at all. You'll never see one, you're all wasting your time on something that isn't going to happen. The movie bombed, no sequels, nothing,zip deal with it. Flash Gordon never had a sequel either, deal with it. You think I care you sign that peititon? I don't.

I'm also peturbed and mad at simmons over here saying I miss the point of this movie. That's a classic stupid defense for movies, I don't understand it. I missed the point of the movie, it's too smart for me. Whatever, that's a lame excuse that pretentious people use to say how genius their movies are. I got the point of this movie and then it just made me angry at how stupid it all was. And this was the movie that everyone recommended to me as being great? Who are you people? Freaks?

Brad gets payed to do that. When most of us do that for free. I'm not allowed to vent my rage against a movie? What kind of twisted site is this? This has nothing to do with entitlement issues, I'm talking honestly about this movie and that's what you should expect on a comment board that brings it up.

This is an open comment board and I'm allowed to voice my opinion or rant all I want. I've seen plenty of you do it on other movies. Does that excuse you that you don't have a video series to rant on? Maybe I should say the same to you, get a video series and rant about Man of Steel and don't try to be Brad Jones.

Or the time the commenters ranted about Promtheus being a horrible movie to brad. Maybe they ought to go get a video series to do that. Don't feed me that garbage. This board is for opinions also and I'm sure plenty have been giving their so glowing views of this movie and you're upset because I provide a negative voice against a wave of other deluded positive ones.

And there's the Victim Card ladies and gentlemen, in full view for everyone to see. Robert is allowed to name call the audience and call them delusional among other things, but don't you dare try to say anything bad about Robert. It hurts his feelings and he doesn't like it.

Of course you're allowed to express your beliefs on here Robert, everyone is. People debate all kinds of movies on these boards, but when you start your comments out by being incredibly abrasive and condescending towards the audience, you can't get surprised when some of them aren't going to talk to you in the most polite of terms. To put it in another way, you made this bed of hostility, now you have to lie in it. Suck it up, be a man, and don't resort to the Victim Card.

Delusional isn't the worst thing to be said to the audience, I'm not calling you morons. And delusional I'm more referring to your belief in this not going to happen sequel and less on your view of the movie.

Then again how does this not compare to the talk of lowest common denominator crap that gets levied on stuff like Transformers. You seem to belittle the audiences and antagonize them too.

Miles
I made this bed of hostility by getting a bunch of crazed fanboys angry by giving a differing opinion and telling them that a sequel is not possible. Face facts it's not possible, Karl Urban is living in la-la land too. You're all hostile because I say that. As for antagonizing and condescending, I get that from you too, so you're all hypocrites who should practice what you preach. Maybe you ought to go talk to Daniel about his condescending comment to me about being wrong.

Why am I no different than any other dick on here? It seems that hypocrisy exists here greatly. You all speak in a condescending manner that is both antagonizing and rude. I'm just following with.

Man some people need to find a healthier hobby than hating people on the internet. Look what it does to you, turns you into Robert.

Gee whiz, that was a pretty harsh e-mail.

And how could anybody hate this movie if even Josh "hates everything" Hadley likes it?

<_< man it's depressing how much sense that makes. Kinda wish it weren't true; how many of the other people saying the same thing are him as well? I kinda hope at least one of them is a separate person.

I think if they bring Judge Death into the mix, that would be a sequel worth seeing/making.

Who should play him?

Get the cheapest actor we can get from some HBO tv series to look bored for the role! Better yet, just kind of stop wondering considering no sequel will exist any time soon.

Nah I don't think I will, but hey if you truly feel it's not worth talking about, feel free to act on your feelings man :)

I guess if they go for Judge Death exactly as he's portrayed in the comics, I really hope they go for makeup/costume as opposed to CGI. I'm not too much of a Judge Comic buff, so not sure what a good voice actor would be, but they definitely should go voice actor over casting a recognizable actor for the voice; higher quality and lower cost that way.

Nah, just saying, if they did it'll be someone desperate for cash off of Game of Thrones.

I liked Dredd, Karl Urban did well and wasn't to full og himself to have to take the helmet off in the movie ever so it was no slouch as far as Dredd films go (and I like the Stallone version but it is admittedly a cheesier film).

I'd be fine with a sequel if they better a much better (more interesting) villain and if it was fun.
I mean Lena Headey is good in Game of Thrones, and maybe it was just the writing, but her character was so unimposing and didn't feel like any kind of threat to the Dredd character at all. She was just high all the time and couldn't really care.
It was bad casting as Lena Headey is more of a puppet master villain. Pulling the strings from the shadows type. She isn't really great for a villain who supposedly runs an entire block with a gun and drug running empire.
Anyway, as much as I hated Lena Headey's character (and feel it's what brings the movie down the most) I would still see a sequel if they maintained the dark atmosphere like Dredd should be. It was a fun movie despite it's faults (and still better than the Stallone version).

Wow. Sorry, I typo-ed in that a lot. Oh well.

Totally agree with Mullet Man, the shit that gets sequels but Dredd doesn't. Grown Ups 2? REALLY?! I saw Godzilla 4 times & each time I had to see the 22 Jump Street trailer, & each time I said out loud "but DREDD can't get a sequel? I have renewed hope thanks to the recent release of Wolf Creek 2 on dvd. For God's sake the 1st one came out in 2005 (I think) & I'm very thankful, John Jarratt as Mick is the real modern day Freddy Krueger, creepy as well as entertaining! I wish they would just do like Wolf Creek, straight to dvd. It may sound demeaning, but that's where Dredd made the money. As much as I'd love to see the Dark Judges I think another grounded story would suffice, maybe go easy on cgi, lose the slow-mo & most important... no 3-d!!! That's probably what hurt your budget most the 1st time. You do that, bring back Karl & Olivia (duh!) & I think you guys (& gals) could make another film reeking of sheer awesomeness......................................................PLEASE!!!!!!!
