    I now have a 3D tv and this is SUPERB on it. SUPERB i tells ya. The slo-mo really drags you into the movie.
    Personally I think this is about as close as we will get to the comic.

    Yeah I saw the 3D version at the cinema, it was awesome!
     
    especially the part when Dredd blows the door open on that drugs den & you see it all happen through the eyes of one of the drugged up perps in slow motion, bullets ripping through cheeks and so forth

    This film needs a bigger/bolder sequel!
    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    Definitely. I would love to see them out on the streets of Mega City One for the next flick. Obviously it had to be more confined due to the limited budget and staying with the adult rating (quite right), but hopefully it'll do well enough for a budget boosted sequel on a grander scale.

    From what I understand, the profits didn't seem to suggest that was likely though

    I read that they sort of expected this and were relying on media sales to push up the profit margin and go for a 2nd movie.

    Regarding the mini guns and damage - they've got the block under total control, they don't need to explain jackshit to anyone. A blunt force tool - a hail of bullets - to try and bring down Dredd. He isn't going to come out into the open, so they've got to trap him in a vicinity, and then decimate that vicinity ... plus it makes Dredd look even more like a double-hard bastard after he survives all that flying lead.
    I love the conclusion of that scene when Dredd strides back out there with Ma-Ma's head honcho...pure Dredd!

    Oh, and you didn't slip a "Game On" reference in there did you?

    Not that I'm aware of - I sort of know of the show, but I've never seen it.

    Ha! Perhaps some justice ...
    Dredd seemingly 'exploded' on the home video market and now this:

    Dredd was a fine example of a comic book adaptation done right. Love that film.

    Toes too.

    I don't know anyone who didn't like 'Dredd', at least on some level.

    Good news to hear that Urban is game. I hope that the little cutie that played Anderson is up for it as well.

    I absolutely loved Dredd - never saw it in the cinema, but pre-ordered the Blu-Ray and I've watched it twice so far. It's currently one of the new films on Sky Movies this week and I ended up watching a big chunk of it last night, so it's got that 'suck you in' factor.

    It's good to hear that the likes of Urban and Garland are actively pursuing it. Hopefully we fans can get a sequel to it because the movie was feckin' amazing!

    Finally caught this last night and was so impressed at how they restricted the scope of the film while delivering something so fun and powerful. Very refreshing
