It's Time To Judge The First Trailer For DREDD!!
The Kidd here...
Lionsgate brought the premiere of DREDD's first trailer to G4's ATTACK OF THE SHOW, and upon first glance, my reaction was, "Didn't I see this in THE RAID: REDEMPTION?" But once I got past those similarities, "It's not that bad" started to creep into my mind.
It's missing all the cheese of Stallone's version to its credit, and may actually make for a decent action picture. Then again, it may also suck, but at least coming out of this trailer, you aren't quite sure. That makes you at least curious to find out for yourself.
I guess now Machinama is debuting it after the official premiere on G4, none of which makes any sense. Go figure.

Nothing about him seems like a real person. I never read any of the comics but does he have personality at all or his always this brooding and serious?

Eastwood was the inspiration for Dredd, hence the voice. Robocop was inspired by Dredd. Dredd was written and in production before `The Raid`. Any questions?:-)

Judge Death, you can't make him "real", so it can't be done in a movie.

Imagine a Nolanized version of Judge Death: a regular guy with delusions that he comes from another dimension, and goes out on a killing spree. How lame is that?

His voice seems comical, but I like the look of this. Doesn't look polished, kind of grubby. Nice! Hopefully, within context his voice will grow on me.

Song is "In for the Kill (Skream's Let's Get Ravey Remix)" by La Roux
by Riley Harrison
Loved the opening song, everything else looks pretty damn retarded. Though I've never seen the original, which may help explain the reason behind the cliche'd one-liners and testosterone-fueled cheese, but this looks like nothing fresh has been brought to the table. I'll stop being a debbie downer, as this movie probably isnt geared towards me, a 22 year old white male (sarcasm), but this movie looks too stupid to give a shit about. And I liked The Expendables.

@stalecracker 'Judgment' and 'judgement' are both correct spellings
by Lone Fox
Class dismissed!
-
Hmmm... I checked and you are correct. Well played, Lionsgate, well played... Judgment - Traditionally, the word has been spelled judgment in all forms of the English language. However, the spelling judgement (with e added) largely replaced judgment in the United Kingdom in a non-legal context. In the context of the law, however, judgment is preferred. This spelling change contrasts with other similar spelling changes made in American English, which were rejected in the UK. In the US at least, judgment is still preferred and judgement is considered incorrect by many American style guides.

As a long time comic book reader who grew up on the 2000 A.D./Judge Dredd strip I can tell you that Joe Dredd is brooding and serious all the time; he's purposely written that way because the stories he’s set against are satirical in nature. The writers take a British sense of humour approach that pokes fun of and commentates on social issues, popular culture, religion and politics. He's meant to be a total fascist with no emotions and spouts one liners and catchphrases. He's an anti-hero and usually a dick head; you're not meant to like him as a person. The reason why the "taking" off of the helmet rubbed up fans the wrong way in the Stallone version was because Dredd represents the faceless embodiment of the law. He's a metaphor an idea like the 'V' character in V for Vendetta. I’m not sure Hollywood or some American’s actually “get” what those comic strips are about. Yes, there are fantastic science fiction / horror elements to the stories and lots of action that would translate well to the move screen, but without the “dark humour and cutting wit” it cheapens and dumbs down the total sum of it’s parts.
-
One one hand, it feels like they're pretty close to the right tone (from what I can remember of the comics all those years ago), but the visuals are... um... "not quite right". It almost makes you wish they could've taken Urban and the general tone of this trailer and transplanted them into the sets from the Stallone flick, which **looked** more like the Mega-City One of the comics, but **felt** bugger all like it. For me, I think the tone may triumph the "wronged up" visuals. So long as it **feels** like Dredd, I may be willing to overlook a lot of the 20th century-looking shit in there. Then again, seeing those Judges on their bikes in the middle of a traffic-jam full of fucking Volkswagen vans...
-
It looks... pretty underwhelming. No money shots in the visuals and a rather generic grimy look. Muted colors and a lot of action taking place at night. Kinda drab in fact. The full costume still makes Urban's Dredd look like a rather short guy in a riot police uniform, and he seems to be chanelling Bale's Batman voice. It might stand up as a reasonable action flick, if fans can disassociate themselves from the comic character, but it all looks rather humorless and forgettable. Dredd deserved better.

"they spelled "judgement" WRONG! How the hell do you do that?"
by buggerbugger
Vowel-killing Americans passed judgement on the first 'e'. You think that film's called 'Judgement Night', don't you? Noop. Even the UK DVD dropped the 'e' from the title.
-
Just like "collectible" is more correct than "collectable." You can use the latter spelling with an "a" at the end if you want, but you look like an ignoramus in doing so...
-
The production and costume designs (except, amusingly, the judges uniforms) was one thing that the Stallone version got right. It looked great...the opening shots of Megacity One, as the flying cab rose above the buildings brought tears to the eyes of the young lady I were stepping out with at the time. (She was a Dredd fanatic). Then the rest of the movie really really made her cry.
-
I immediately was reminded of The Raid about 15 minutes into the movie. Overall it wasn't bad. I didn't think the 3D was impressive and the over use of the slo-mo effect really made the film drag for me.

-
the moment Max Von Fargo comes out with the line about wasting his time at the academy wiping cadets asses. Sums the script up..full of cliche
-
From Wikipedia "In British English, the spelling judgment is correct when referring to a court's or judge's formal ruling." Since Dredd is from 2000AD a BRITISH comic it makes perfect sense. Fucking fanboys...so quick to destroy...so incapable of thought...or proper use of google. Trailer still looks cool, but the movie will be shit.
-
A whole movie revolving around Slo Mo. Very original. P.S. that is sarcasm
-
A year ago I was excited to go see this. Now, not so much. Low-budget Dredd doesn't work. They should go animated and keep it hard.

Looks kinda hardcore mixed with art house to me. Being as this is from the British producers of Sunshine and 28 Days Later, then I'm in!
by batfunk
-
The story line actually comes from one of the earliest Dredd comics, where a Slo Mo is the drug of choice for banks robbers and such. I think it looks kinda cool. The production design doesn't hold a candle to the Stallone Dredd, but this has got a balls to the wall 80's vibe and it's gonna be a hard R. That's what I want from a Dredd movie and I'll be in line opening day.
-
He must've thought it sucked too.
-
I don't like the look of the film at all. The trailer, though, feels like a very rough cut and unpolished. I don't know if that's intentional or just a bad editing job, but especially towards the end there's nothing but a series of disconnected action sequences. I also can't STAND Urban's Batman voice. Unless it gets rave reviews, I doubt I'll even bother watching it on demand. Eventually, it'll hit Netflix.
-
If the slow mo drug blunts your senses into slow motion while everyone else is doing normal speed arent you at a bit of a disadvantage? Dredd's going to be taking aim and shooting you and your ten buddies while youre still turning your doped up head to see him come in the room. *This is a turkey shoot* Anderson *More like a turtle shoot* Dredd This comicbook shit rights itself!
-
Worse than Stallone's.

I was among those that didn't hate the Stallone version
by where_are_quints_hobbit_set_reports
obviously the comic relief sidekick sucked, but the look and feel of that movie was pretty great. I still keenly recall the awesome robot, which is more than I remember from most movies I've seen. I'll see this, too. Although I fuckin hate cops in real life I have a weakness for these kinds of Charles Bronson stone-butch super-lawman movies... a simpler universe where good and evil really exist and are clearly defined. Could have done without the "it's judgement time" line-- hope that's cut from the actual film. I liked "The sentence... is death" though.
-
...long before The Raid existed. PLUS The Raid was well overrated. I'm excited...

Looks a lit like District Nine. I kinda like it actually.

"If the slow mo drug blunts your senses into slow motion...
by buggerbugger
"...while everyone else is doing normal speed arent you at a bit of a disadvantage?" I was under the impression that it's the other way around? The guys on slo-mo are like Peter Parker in that scene from 'Spider-Man' where Flash Thompson swings a punch at him? The person taking the drug doesn't slow down, everything around them appears to be in slow motion. In that regard, slo-mo would be a hallucinogenic that sharpens your senses rather than blunts them: You see every second with perfect clarity.
-
June 21, 2012, 12:52 p.m. CST
movie better not end with Dredd and Anderson taking the drug so they can out-shoot everyone in slo-mo!
by hank henshaw
You know, like that shitty Max Payne flick with Mark Wahlberg.
-
the drugs seems to make time last longer, so you're watching everything else happen in slo-mo, giving you time to react i guess. it's the max payne/matrix bullet time thing. again.

You can keep your shitty Stallone version (and the black tights that it wore)...
by Jay
Even if this new one does suck, at least I'll finally see the real Dredd deliver some damage. Urban looks spot on, and that already makes the short trailer more fun than that awful excuse of a Stallone film. Minimal & dirty future = Robocop. Finally, another movie where the future doesn't look like super Tokyo. The complete opposite of the new Total Recall and other shit. If people can go gaga over the story-less and character-less movie The Raid, they can give this a chance. Heck, if this was a foreign film you guys would probably be going gaga over it already.

Not easy to see in that.

But I'll reserve judgment................
-
...is pretty awful. So pretentious. It's bad enough that Bale has made the "Batman voice" a laughingstock, but for Urban to use it in this movie is nigh unforgivable. Otherwise the trailer looks like pretty standard action fare. Just might rent it.
-
Urban isn't channeling Bale's Batman, he's channeling Dirty Harry era Eastwood as the comic was based on. If anything the immitation is the other way around! Anyway, the film looks great, Urban sounds and looks the part, Mega-City One looks the part, Olivia Thirlby will make a great Judge Anderson. And anyone who thinks the '95 film was an accurate representation of the brilliant comic character from 2000ad has either never read the comic or is a cretin-probably both!

Trippy weak trance music, slo motion drugs and a female villain!!!! WHAAAATTTTTTT!!!????!!
by 5secondfuse
What THE FUCK did I just watch?? Somebody tell me. It looks like it was made on a peanuts budget and that 3D is gonna be Resident Evil style shit. It just looks and sounds awful. The opening part of this 1st Trailer HAS TO SELL. It's a pussy pansy weak slow mo hippy trip into a world that I don't want to go. I thought this movie was going to be as hard as nails but when the main villain is a woman on drugs that looks like she spends most of the movie putting on make up and shit and trying to push a new type of joint it FAILS miserably. Dredd himself has zero impact in this and that is the nail in the coffin. Also it does look like The Raid towards the end but I've seen The Raid and that is fucking magnificant. This will be a pussy version of that idea. Stallones version may be a legendary failure and unintentional laugh fest but Stallone was born to play Dredd. He's got the presence and look that Urban simply doesn't have. Not to mention the trailer for Stallones Dredd did make it look fucking EPIC. Compare that to this hippy music shit and weep.
-
Overproduced. Not enough grit. Looks too "movie-ish" and has none of that organic feel. Yes I know it's a comic book film but how come all these new sci-fi movies/reboots look alike? It's like the same dude who designed the set for the upcoming Total Recall reused his stuff for this movie. Both trailers actually have a lot in common, and that's not a good thing. Dredd looks weak, small, non-imposing. All the other actors are most likely one dimensional. This thing has the Doom 3 vibe all over it... but this time, it takes itself way too seriously.
-
Several things i liked about this trailer... (1) The muted color of the city. (2) The designs of the exterior of the tall buildings. (3) Urban, Thirlby and Headey in motion and speaking in the context of the film (as opposed of only seing them in production stills or magazines). In regards to Judge Anderson (Thrilby), i wonder if this movie includes her psychic abilities or not. I enjoyed the Stallone film as well.

by Fawst
This looks entertaining. I've never read the comic, couldn't get past 10 minutes in the Stallone version and don't give a fuck about how accurate it is. Yes, I'm *that guy*. I'll check it out for Urban alone.
-
...The Raid was bloody awful. And this was written first. And most of the people objecting to this trailer seem to have very little knowledge of the Dredd comics. The voice is right. The look is right, Dredd was NOT a bodybuilder. Slo Mo was used in the comics. Also, grounding the vehicles in reality makes sense. Has a more Mad Max vibe to it. Sooo...do your homework, or at the very least wait 'til you've actually seen the movie. If it's shit, I'll be the first one to admit it. Like I was with Poopmetheus.

Dredd talkback has beenjudged-the judgement is death!
by Judge Anderson's kinky boots
This has been getting some great buzz from preview screenings last night-so I'll be carving up some humble pie for the haters on here. As for the film. My interest in seeing it far surpasses both the new Batman and Spiderman films. Is it September yet?
-
SyFy production quality
-
Y'all have seen films more than a couple of years old, right? I could reel off a few dozen films with the same basic premise as The Raid. I can't remember, did you all boycott The Raid because of its similarities to the recent (earlier) Brazilian film Elite Squad? Good guys going in to get the bad guys is a set-up as old as Star Wars, Where Eagles Dare, and Odysseus's solution to the siege of Troy. It's what you do with that initial premise that ultimately makes the difference
-
But this movie looks great
-
It really is The Raid! And yes, obviously that premise is not as unique, but just in general tone and look it matches as well. Elite Squad is a WHOLE DIFFERENT ballpark (and I assume you're talking about the first film, but the second film has nothing to do with that kinda premise at all. Elite Squad 2 is also a brilliant movie - see it). But beyond all that, Dredd just looks awful. The production values look WORSE than the 1995 Stallone film, it looks like a bland, barely future vision of the future, I can't believe this cost eve 45 mil it looks like under 25. The only thing I'll give them is a few of the slomo shots actually are well composed, and the shot with the guy's skin being rippled back is one of the better uses of that effect I've seen. Otherwise, this looks like direct-to-video crap of the first order, and I doubt it makes much more than Lockout which actually looked MORE interesting and LESS cheap than this film.

Actually, the lines sound just as cheesy as the Stallone version
by wcolbert
And the Batman voice isn't helping. At least Stallone was just doing Stallone's voice. I enjoyed Stallone's early 90's movies, cheese and all. Good cheesy fun. I still pop in Demolition Man once in a while. "Taco BELL?" hah. Seems like people have forgotten how to not take every movie so seriously and sometimes just enjoy a cheesy B movie for what it is. Not everything needs to be grungy and bad-ass, you know. Some things CAN be stupidly entertaining.
-
The DREDD script has been floating around for years and the movie has been in post for a year and a half. anyway, I want I'll probably. I liked THE RAID and this looks like THE RAID WITH MORE GUNS AND A CLINT EASTWOOD VOICE
-
Lol....you are right...but it's written in American / Pigeon English :) And btw, you mean - 'arse' and NOT 'ass' in one of your later posts....(the latter is also Yank).
-
http://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=raid.htm so all the people comparing this movie to The Raid don't amount to much. It will make zero difference to the box office chances of this film. No-one outside of geeky film websites will care. The trailer looks very cool. The shots of Judge Dredd are like the 2000AD character brought to life so fingers crossed the film is just as good. :)
-
Lena Headey is in and I'm on board
-
I know she's all scarred-up, but short, choppy hair and pretty eyes go a long way with me. She has an interesting look.
-
That is the comic book Judge Dredd! The walk, the vibe, the look (with modified uniform). It's crazy how accurate that feels to the spirit of 2000AD's Judge Dredd. If the film can maintain that spirit during its entire running time it should be a very faithful comic to film adaptation even if the cars are modern! :)
-
Bale's Batman voice is identical to Michael Keaton's vocal characterisation, which sounds a lot like Clint Eastwood, whose mannerisms recall Jack Palance. Realising that something reminds you of something else you enjoy, doesn't mean you can't enjoy both.
-
'Judgment' is more correct???? What are you on mate???? I don't actually care how it's written, but - bottom line - English came before American English....'judgement' thus came before 'judgment', so how the Devil can 'judgment' be "more correct" ?????????????

Urban looks spot on, but the rest looks a bit meh. not looking forward to ridiculous amount of "bullet time" action the plot seems to dictate.
by dahveed1972
-
Just hope it isn't over-used. It often is, especially amongst new still photographers. It could easily be the next bullet time. I was just thinking about this a while back, how with digital you conceivably could do real, actual HDR motion pictures. High dynamic range and 3d? Overloaded senses? Who knows. Looks a little cheesy, but could be fun. He got that Stallone frown thing going on in a few shots, I liked that touch. I guess we'll see.

There's nothing else to see why not. im bored... Besides karl urban kickass actor. loved him in lotr, and star trek. So he's doing a gravelly voice. i expect a guy who's a cop who kills people because he loves it not to have a voice of a fairy... lol. it's supposed to be grim and dark.

I predict... if the action scenes are spectuclar... this will be the best comic book movie of the year.
by coolfan123
If the action scenes are exciting and Urban nails Dredd's personality - this could be a classic. Perhaps not the most original Dredd story ever to be put on film but with the real potential to be an action classic. Time will tell... roll on September...

This doesn't feel like Dredd. It could be any other cop movie. Sorry.
by impossibledreamers
At least Stallone's Dredd had a more epic scope to it. It tried to be like Robocop etc. in discussing how far law enforcement should go... etc. BUT, THIS? This could be any cop, any city, and any time.

-
... and that is not good. Felt like I was watching the trailer for The Raid (which I haven't seen) mixed with New Jack City. Lots of stuff moving around, shots established solely for 3D, stale cgi environs, silly costumes, ridiculous gunfights where only "bad guys" get hit and no on ever runs out of ammo, and a cute, cheeky rookie that is a martial-arts badass but needs a wiser hand to guide her, right up until she is taken hostage and needs rescuing. And not one character you'll be interested in or empathize with. Completely, totally predictable. Sigh. Nope. Pass.

by rakesh patel
The trailer is pants. the individual scenes work. I can see where they're going with this. but yeah the trailer isnt doing it justice. future drug bad..blah blah blah. needs to be Dredd meeting out justice. ie punching a slo mo druggie in the face. R Rating? looks promising.
-
I've had it up to here with spandex superfags,bring on the ultra violence
-
I thought Dredd's gun NEVER ran out of ammo?
-
... you know there's not one character you'll be able to empathize with from a two minute trailer. You're a quick study to discern that only the bad guys get shot- although it looks to me like Urban's sporting a fucking big hole in his torso armour in that shot of him walking out the building. I must have watched that trailer wrong, thanks for putting me right.
-
If so it sounds as if the Raid pinched the idea from this.
-
...in ANY way, shape or form (other than the admittedly cool ABC warrior)... Are not fans of Dredd.
-
and come away with anything even approaching accuracy are living in a fantasy. Once a trailer is out, there is no controlling it anymore, especially if there's real interest. They need to stop with trying to STOP the way things go viral instead of supporting it. NO metadata is worth stopping the viral spread of your property. Wake up. At this point this is all about job security. Someone is paid to keep track of this stuff and all efforts to stop a trailer spreading now are ALL about job security and NOT about helping the film. But don't listen to me.

This didn't copy THE RAID. An accurate script review was posted on this very site, via Latino Review. The review was dated July 2010. DREDD was in pre-production by August 2010 and shooting by November. THE RAID went before cameras in March 2011. Gareth Evans was working on another project which fell through right around the time that the DREDD script was doing the rounds. Do the math... If anything Evans got hold of the DREDD script and copied a chunk of that to make his movie! And with regard to the "Slo-Mo", Judge Dredd is steeped in satire. Having the population addicted to a drug which slows down time and makes everything look cool? Do you not see it? It's perfect!
-
It seems like sci-fi sound designers have gotten so lazy over the past few years. Every vehicle or machine has to sound just like a podracer engine with that rotating whirring sound.
-
and largely an ode to Die Hard and a small budget. Script was really good, although I remember the Momma character being black? Anyway, I'm looking forward to this, but female villains never sit right with me. The way that Dredd dispatches of the female villain seems, well-written, but a bit too harsh. Kinda like Arnie smashing the t-x with a toilet. Feels odd. Male villain would have been better.
-
June 21, 2012, 3:28 p.m. CST
Urban's great, but in the trailer it just feels like he's trying to talk and walk like somebody else.
by kevred
I know, that's what acting is. But Eastwood never came across as not being in his own skin. he spoke and moved naturally. Urban sounds like he's trying to sound like something, and walks like he's trying to walk just a certain way. Offhand I don't know who would be able to really inhabit the part. Vin Diesel comes to mind, as far as having the physique and voice that would "fill out the suit" without seeming to try. Not too familiar with the source material, though, so I don't know which actor would really be most authentic.
-
Or it will be a brainless action type movie.
-
He posted the following on his Facebook page: "I went up to London yesterday to see the completed Dredd film. I've had reservations about certain aspects of it, and made them plain to the team at DNA. All but one of them - a little quibble at the beginning - have been addressed. And what a lot they've added. Music is on the button. SFX are excellent. Filming is impressive. I've not seen a modern 3-D movie before but I like it. I found myself reaching out trying to touch things that were dancing before my eyes. Karl is a great Dredd and Olivia gets Anderson completely. This is Dredd as it should be done - true to character, visceral, unrelentingly violent (but not off-puttingly so). It will open, I believe, sometime in September. No doubt you'll let me know what you think when you've seen it, but this has my recommendation." ... If the man who created the character says it's good. IT'S GOOD
-
...Dredd EXACTLY as he is in the comics would look hilarious onscreen. Much like he did in the Stallone aberration. As would many of his adversaries. You obviously aren't smart enough to know that what works in one media isn't NECESSARILY right for another. This captures Dredd's spirit 100%. The uniform is badass AND practical. Urban has the right stature and build. The visuals are gritty but retain a subtle comic book feel. Anyway...what am I bothering with you for anyway. You are not a Dredd fan. The true Dredd fans on this board are behind this move...as is the character's creator. So in short. Fuck off to an Avengers talkback.

looks good man. need to get the marketing sorted out though, i don't think slow motion for the trailer helps
-
I love Bolland's Dredd too. Dredd's been drawn a hundred different ways by a hundred different artists, though; that's one of the things that make the character and the strip so original and distinctive. A film adaptation's got to pick one version and run with it. Deal with that.
-
What a letdown. Megacity one is as much the star of the comicstrip as Dredd himself, setting it in what looks like a modern-day favella is just so disappointing. And it all looks so crap - the vehicles, guns, the lot. No imagination visible in the trailer. I so wanted this to be good, I loved Judge Dredd as a kid. This shows no trace of the absurdity and black humour that made Dredd great.

Anybody else notice that evil bitch in the trailer was Lena Headey from Game of Thrones? This doesn't look great but not nearly as bad as you guys are making it out to be. It'll have entertainment value for sure.
-
Seriously, you guys... This film has been cookin' since 2008. Sure, it hasn't gotten that much attention after it was shifted from a 2011 release all the way to September 2012 but one of the VERY FIRST things that came to light was that the helmet stays on. Not comin' off. How can this have escaped some of the readership on a site like AICN?
-
The problem with Stallone's movie was it was cheesy, but still a good action flick with a decent plot. This looks better, but the plot looks more cheesy than Stallone's flick.
-
erm, upon further inspection, I see that multiple people have noticed. :D Lena Headey=win
-
shit just got real son.
-
Yup, I think having a strong female villain and a female lead will make Dredd stand out from the crowd. A good part of The Avengers's success was down to giving the Director's chair to someone who can write for and direct actresses in parts that aren't simply sexually exploitative. Black widow's at the heart of that film's very broad appeal and financial success.

It has a nice dark tone to it, but I think some of the visuals look undercooked
by lv_426
The CGI aesthetic is clashing with the gritty tone. It definitely looks a bit cheapo. Then again, if they were to have a big budget, we'd get great effects but a PG version of Judge Dredd. I would rather have a cheap but R rated violent Dredd at this point. I think they showed the end of the movie in the trailer though. Why do studios keep spoiling all the big moments and climaxes of their movies? I'll probably check this one out though.
-
The first Punisher had a budget, but it was offensively off the mark. In almost no way resembles a movie about Frank Castle. It should've been renamed A Revenge Story. The second Punisher had more right going on with it, but . . . it was even more infuriating because it came so close with some aspects but didn't have the balls to treat the material with the seriousness it deserved, so you feel as embarassed to be watching it as you do Spawn or Batman & Robin. I have never read a Dredd comic though I always liked the 90s movie perfectly fine and I'm the biggest Robocop fanatic. This looks..... like I'll get a closer representation of Dredd as a character but will prefer the first movie as a movie.
-
Let's wait for a redband trailer before passing judgement. Jeez guys. Also it's rated R. Give it the benefit of the doubt.

Looks meh to me.... too much slo-motion. I dont know...

I'm surprised at how not mad I am. Now, at least, they have a fucking excuse for slow motion, if it is a shitty one.

Ok, that was an interesting look at where they're going with Dredd. Firstly, there's a good, and obvious, reason why Dredd's uniform is pretty basic, along with the vehicles and the city itself- this is very early in Dredd's career. His uniform looks like a cross between that in the first story in issue 2 of 2000AD and the uniform of the proto-judges that existed just before Bad Bob pushed the button. That's why we're seeing Anderson as a cadet, too. As I understand it they're planning three films, with the Dark Judges in the third film, by which time we should see a more advanced city and an adult Anderson. I quite agree that the wit seems to be missing, but there's only so much time for the trailer and Dredd is not meant to be a comedy. Look out for block names, parodies of current trends etc. If you get the vibe from it that Dredd feels a bit like the bad guy, that's not an accident- especially since it's the younger Dredd. He only sees black and white at this stage, and the print is damn dense.

My prediction, it'll bomb, but it'll actually turn out to be a pleasant surprise to those who do see it...
by Stegman84
Why do I think this? One, Alex Garland wrote the script. He of 28 Days Later, Sunshine, and Never Let Me Go. That's a pretty damn good track record in my book. Two, Urban, Hedley and Thirlby all are pretty damn dependable in bringing the quality, regardless of how everything around them turns out. Hell, Urban even made nuTrek McCoy work against all odds, and despite a very limited amount of screen time. I admit that Urban does seem a bit stilted in the trailer, but I am hoping that in the context of the actual film it'll work...because if Dredd doesn't work, then it truly is game over. Three, Dredd co-creator John Wagner was a consultant on the film, and has given the final cut his blessing. He did not do so with the much higher budgeted Judge Dredd movie by Stallone back in the day, and they had a lot more cash to splash around in order to buy favourable opinions. Four, the Dredd outfit is actually quite accurate to the way that Dredd was originally drawn by artist Carlos Ezquerra, albeit with more muted colours (at least based on cover art, as 2000AD was mostly black & white back then). Now you can argue how well, or not, that look works on screen, but like it or not, that is old school Dredd through and through. And Urban's frame matches that as well. Personally I do prefer the later, for want of a better term let's call it the Bolland look, but given that the Stallone Dredd film already pretty much took that, and adapted that look on screen very successfully (regardless of what the rest of the film was like) it is hardly surprising that in an effort to differentiate itself from that first Judge Dredd film as much as possible that they have chosen to go with a very different, less stylised, but still accurate, early appearance look for the new Dredd film. Five, from all accounts, the broad strokes have been covered - including all the violence one might expect from Dredd, and him not removing his helmet on screen at all. The only thing that so far seems to be missing is the satirical edge, that unique 2000AD/Judge Dredd skewed viewpoint and tone...and admittedly that does worry me a bit. But then this was a very perfunctory trailer, and satire or parody out of context are unlikely to be seen as mass marketing selling points even at the best of times, so I'm hoping that the 'feel' of Dredd's world and the tone and humour of it is present to some degree in the final film. So why will it bomb? It'll bomb because the marketing isn't slick looking enough, and the trailer looks a bit cheap. It'll bomb because for most of the world the only Judge Dredd they know is the Stallone film, and that has a poor reputation amongst a large percentage of Dredd fans and non Dredd fans alike. It'll bomb because most of the hardcore Dredd fans are either in the UK or Australia, and there aren't enough of them to make something a success, any more than there were enough Phantom fans to turn that into a franchise, or enough Punisher fans to make a success of any of the three different efforts to launch that character on the big screen. And it'll fail because it is an r-rated character in a sadly pg-13 dominated cinema world, and to censor it down to a pg-13 would alienate the niche auience that might be interested in the first place, while leaving it an r kills much of the modern casual cinema going market. Unless it gets some real lightning in a bottle good word of mouth that actually translates to ticket sales, it's pretty damn hard to beat those odds. So at best it might scrape a break even amount, but I wouldn't be at all surprised to see it outright bomb everywhere but the UK. So yeah, even as a Dredd fan from way back, and with high hopes for the finished film, I think it'll bomb, just like Conan bombed last year at around the same time. But I'm hopeful, given some of the talent involved, and the intentions made, that despite the budget it might still turn out pretty good all in all. Or it might tank quality wise as well, but I'm at least willing to wait and hope and see when the time comes, rather than outright writing it off already. But then, I'm one of those rare Dredd die hards, so what else would you expect?

There is no fan in this genre that argues for these studios cheap mishandling of characters and worlds that we have become passionately invested in, no matter how starving they are to see said story come to life. Let me break it down for you. A studio full of lousy fucktards will get a hold of a license with a built in audience, spend less than nothing on it and still make a profit because the fans will still see it opening night, buy the discs, and the even shittier games based on the crappy film. Some day we will get a JUDGE DREDD vs JUDGE DEATH but it will be a reboot in the distant future..............damm those lawmasters look like cheap shit!!! lol

in motion, the suit looks pretty spot on. While I agree Mega City one isn't quite as dense as it should be, and the lawmaster looks "tinny", it doesn't seem that bad at all. It's not going to be a blockbuster hit, but it has a chance to be surprisingly good i think for those who put aside their preconceptions and give it a chance.

The film makers said they didn't wanna blow their load on the first one. Judge death will come if this one is successful.

I mean... when you have to FORCIBLY GRIMACE just to get the look down, you're in trouble. NOT TO MENTION... did they just show Dredd throw the main uber villianess out the window? As in: did they just show me the fucking ending?!?

-
Admitted it on IMDB. Totally genuine. Long story but he admitted it.
-
Trailer looks cool.
-
If you have doubts about the story have a google for the script, it was leaked ages ago and it's really rather good. It reads like a classic Dredd story, brutal, unpretentious and without any of the awful family melodrama/catchphrases/comedy relief/romantic subplot seen in Stallone's movie. Also, regarding the look of MC1... Dredd's world was interpreted by lots of artists, the vision changing many times. I think people's idea of what Dredd should be is influenced by the illustrators they connected with. This will mean that some people will be disappointed by the look... but as long as it has the heart isn't that more important? This trailer reminds me of Steve Dillon's artwork which was mid 80s, his skylines and vehicles were more functional and realistic. Stallone's Dredd was for me the Ron Smith period of artwork. Personally I think this is a pretty accurate portrayal of Dredd in it's look and script wise (although I agree that the uniform could have been better designed from the neck down). After recent overhyped and disappointing movies i'm really looking forward to an underdog release that looks like it will deliver the goods. 2000AD comic is a goldmine of concepts just waiting to be filmed. If Dredd works it could open the floodgates for a lot of original and uncompromising sci-fi movies.
-
Stallone's "Judge Dredd" was so frighteningly stupid that I've tried to force all memory of it from my mind. Weirdly enough, at least in this new trailer, they seem to be taking the material seriously. Thus it already looks billion times better than Schneider-puke city. I kind of liked the industrial wide-angle look of the city too. Not sure if I'll see it in the theater, but maybe I will.

...Then we are in the presence of a total fucking genius.

I don't care who sauchie is... ya can't blame him/her
by where_are_quints_hobbit_set_reports
Making a movie is "hard as fucking nails," to use one of sauchie's phrases. Watching stultified idiots lazily pee on it in a talkback must be agony. In any case, I'm already sold on this film. I just went back and watched some bits of the Stallone version and aside from the robot it's shockingly terrible, much worse than I remember it being. It has "Tank Girl" or "Ultraviolet" levels of dysfunction. Anyway, I'm looking forward to this version. I like the concept; I'll buy a ticket.
-
You now how to turn me off from a movie? Put 3D in the goddamn title card. I'll pass.
-
Sorry but it does. I challenge anyone over 21 to find that trailer amusing.
-
After viewing this umpteen times. i get it. It does look good, but man it took me a multiple viewings to figure it out. to get past the slow mo, to get past the DREDD 3D ( no one likes 3d, attaching it prominently to the title isn't going to help) Its the marketing thats causing it to misfire. its R rated, it need more shots of dredd kicking ass then shots of junkies shooting up. 7 times i've watched this to figure out im probably going to enjoy watching this.. 7 times! joe public isnt going to go through that effort.
-
It's the first trailer. Maybe they'll string together a much better one.

The music in the first minute of this trailer is idiotic... it's the lead-up to a drop with no drop
by Autodidact
I hate intros like that... some mournful singing... what in the fuck does that have to do with JUDGE DREDD... and play the fucking drop!
-
A total fucking nutjob. Google his name... if you dare...
-
... that I have a 'problem' with, is the blocks are to far apart. Other than that, this looks and feels like Dredd to me. Been reading 2000AD, on and off, since Prog 1 and (like I say, apart from the blocks) it IS Dredd. And about the people asking about the human side of Dredd. Jeez! I think, in the entirety of Dredd stories, he's cracked a smile maybe three times. And by cracking a smile, I mean the corners of his mouth, maybe, twitched.
-
I'm so pleased. SlowMo action is so much more beautiful to watch than this stupid shaky cam garbage! Hate the shaky-shit! So for me, Dredd is a must see and i also like the overall look of the movie very much.
-
it's a jungle. But sadly, not a Megacity One urban jungle.
-
One girl vomited her pelvis
-
*Mega City One should by BIG, loud, colorful, and over-the-top crazy... a big super-American circus.* Odkin, gets it! The magic of Judge Dredd comic strip was how bonkers crazy Mega City and its inhabitants were. It has robots, fatties, uglies, and crazy elevated highways. A mad higgledy piggledy mass of skyscrapers and blocks with named after old movie icons with huge letters on them (Charlton Heston block, etc). The inhabitants are actually more like those seen recently in THE HUNGER GAMES than the contemporary looking crew we see in this trailer. With massive population numbers the people of Mega City want to stand out from the crowd, more like the cosplay and wild fashions of Tokyo, or the punks of London. They've made Mega City One and its populace look really, really boring.
-
With all of the sci-fi concepts or satire or action they could do...they just have this guy stuck in a single building the whole movie? Stallone's version was crap, but had it been maybe...40% different it could have been really great. Mostly, get rid of Schneider and cut down the camp and give it a better storyline.
-
Although Mega City One doesn't look as bonkers and diverse as it should be, I guess budget affected that, this still looks like it will be good and at least a decent version of the character.
-
I like the tber that mentioned doing Dredd like SIN CITY. Brilliant idea... 4 stories with perhaps some element of overlap. Also SIN CITY looked fantastic and it only had a budget of $40 million (considerably less than DREDD 3D). If they'd gone for comicbook style stark contrasts and similar visual fx they could have created a teeming massive looking Mega City relatively cheaply. This trailer just looks small, grimy and cheap. The *money shot* is Dredd firing a phosphorous flare - really??? Fuck.
-
...recycled food is great for the environment and ok for you.
-
The woman he throws through the window at the end is blatantly Lena Headey. I hate when trailers do that.
-
Only cringe worthy moments are when Judge Dredd speaks. I do like the drug plot but is this just an excuse for slow mo / bullet time?
-
kizeesh, what a shock the baddie gets killed at the end. More on News At 11...

by ScreaminBrains
-
No henchmen were actually harmed during the making of this film
-
wookie, yep it's weak to show that in the trailer. Normally theres an unwritten rule that the hero guy doesnt kill the baddie woman. Its usually the heroine that kills the baddie woman, like Lois Lane smacking General Zod's bitch down the ice pit at the end of SUPERMAN II. Or the baddie woman does something stupid and gets herself killed like in THE LAST CRUSADE. I guess Dredd throwing her through a window is kinda in keeping. It was the ground that killed her not him!

I am pretty sure It is safe to start spaying urine all over the thing. I appreciate the optimism, I just have none for this project. There are certain iconic set pieces that make Judge Dredd, and DNA does NOT get it. Very sad

The Prometheus trailers were all sensational and look how that turned out. I shall reserve judgement.
by Octavian
As to the Lawmaster bikes I suppose they had a choice. Have poerful looking bikes on the screen or go for the comic style bikes which look cool but seem lumbering and unwieldy in reality.
-
At least the Stallone version had some style. This looks like cheap, humorless, soulless, bland, uninspired derivative Hollywood bullshit. Totally lacking in anything I would associate with Judge Dredd. Urban is miscast, there is nothing to suggest this will anything other than an abomination and an insult to Dredd fans.
-
The drone soldier...
-
What has Mars got to do with Dredd? Dredd's not Total Recall. Looks pretty good to me, despite my initial reservations over the look of the city and vehicles dictated by the budget.
-
I miss Stallone...Urban just can't deliver the one liners like Sly!
-
So what if it's grounded? The Stallone version wasn't and it tanked - why on earth would they go the same route, again on a lower budget? It worked for Nolan when the Schumacher trainwreck had knackered the Batman franchise. It seems like a reasonable route to separate it from the Stallone film. There's only so much you can do with a budget their size.
-

There is already a great Judge Dredd movie. But for some reason it's called "Robocop".

Yeah, shame they so blatantly stole the concept from Dredd. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3527/5842750530_68364a565f.jpg
-
They couldn't raise much more than $45 million because the Stallone film you all ADORE made zero profit and led audiences to believe Dredd was a story about a wise-cracking good guy with a flying bike. Not enough people want to see those kind of films you all remember from your youth. A grim and gritty take on Dredd is the price you all have to pay for buying The Dark Knight on Blu-ray.

by the Green Gargantua
Otherwise it is like every other future cop story.
-
As BIG FANS of the original comics, you must be excited at the prospect of more Dredd films. You've had a painful 17 year wait- as MASSIVE fans of the comics- for your favourite character EVER- who you know ALL about- to get another crack at the big screen. It must royally piss you off that the Stallone film's box office belly-flop ruined any chance of you getting to see that Dredd vs Death film you want to see so badly. It'd be ironic if this film manages to do the kind of business that finally puts your LONG-HELD fantasies up on the big screen.
-
Why the fuck would a MASSIVE FAN of the comics imagine Dredd speaking with a British accent? Unless you don't know shit about Dredd, the character's history, the strip's publication history, geography or ethnography. Because that would explain it. If you knew FUCK ALL, I mean.

Harry Potter VS. Judge Death makes more sense.

Judge Death can't be done because studio suits will never allow it. They are the ones that lack the imagination.

But hey, you are the one who thinks Judge Dredd, born and raised in Mega-City One (U.S. Eastern seaboard) must have a british accent.
-
I hadn't given this movie much thought, other than "I'll probably never see it." This preview has changed that for me. Hopefully it's a hard-R and has some good kills like The Raid, a movie that this definitely evokes (regardless of which started production first).

by Stalkeye
I was expecting a lil' more but then again, this shit is released through Lionsgate. Both films are sorely lacking of originality, However Urban (The DOOM Guy) has the face for Dredd moreso that Sly. Loved how Stally plaed the blame on Director Danny Cannon for JD's horrible reception. Wasn't this the guy who also did Rhinestone and Stop or my Mom will shoot? No Sly, he's not the only one at fault. With your ego and input you could have made a decision to make sure that this IP was taken more seriously. You DID allow Rob Schieder to make it in the film after all.

I agree with the poster above who mentioned that DOOM takes place on Mars with Demons from Hell. And i don't recall any mentioning of the UAC for that matter. Fucking idiots who made that film should be mopping Floors at Wendy's after hours. this is why most ppl don't take Videgame adaptations too seriously thanks to DOOM, Super mario Bros,Street Fighter and to some extent the Resident Evil films. At least Mortal Kombat was decent despite the toned doen PG-13 rating just to have the kiddies in.

I used to imagine something like that put to the song "I am the Law".. , But By all means my opinion is void compared to yours Simon. You need this film NOW soooooooo bad.

Gargantua, your hate for this movie is incredibly funny. This is a "George Lucas Raped My Childhood" level of disappointment and vitriol and all based on this single trailer. Okay, we get it. It isn't how you envisioned a Judge Dredd movie. You could've made a way better Judge Dredd. But why come down on this guy for his excitement/confidence in the movie not sucking? Isn't that what the trailer was trying to generate? It's obviously going to be a love it or hate it affair. It isn't a crime to like this trailer or hope the movie will be good.
-
June 22, 2012, 2:46 p.m. CST

Yeah, I nabbed the minty ID, because I'm doing the post on it at the moment. Minty had fuck all of a budget, but we just worked out what we could comfortably achieve. Doing a comic version of Megacity is expensive - there's no way round it - comparing a fan film and a 3D theatrical release, is fucking idiotic. So as someone who's coming at it from that perspective can understand why DNA went the route they did, I have a hard time understanding why other people don't really get it.

Thanks, well I'm just one of a team. If there was the budget and the audience, I'd love to see a more comic faithful Dredd. It's just an incredibly tough sell to a studio, with one flopped version of that IP behind it. Originally Minty was going to be a lot more real-world, almost exactly the route they've gone, but it was decided to go more comic since we had the freedom to please ourselves, and just wanted to see how the comic costume looked. It's a great costume, but you do have to work around it for any kind of stunts, so again I totally get the direction they went, and that it was distanced from the Stallone film was a bonus for them. It's also a lot closer to something like the Origins plot, in both uniform and the city. Anyway, I've got to get back to working on Minty.
-
Got sidetracked... The bike was literally, just a blue box with handlebars and CGI for the rest, it's OK up to a point, but it is very limiting in what you can show. I'm probably going to end up building a digital double, but would have loved to have had a real bike even on a lowrider or something. Cheers
-
June 22, 2012, 3:11 p.m. CST
Except Minty's visual style, tone and dramatic content isn't really 'absurdest' (sic) ...
by sauchieboy
The colour palette is overwhelmingly blue/black, the story seems to be every bit as grim and gritty as the new Dredd film. If you want to say that Minty represents a similarly heightened reality and exaggerated production design as the comics, then we can agree, Gargantuan.

But what if you heard that a film version of Elric of Menibone or The Incal was being produced and they were going to do it with only 40 million dollars?
by the Green Gargantua
The scale of the Dredd world can't be done for peanuts otherwise we end up with a very unMEGA Mega-city!! You keep on bringing up the 1st Dredd film, but the problems were NOT the production design on any level!!! It was Stallone taking the helmet off (even with it left on he may not have worked) and Rob Schneider's comedic relief. Everything else was pretty dammed close in my opinion. I mean they even had a ABC Warriors War Bot for fucks sake AND Max Von Sydow!
-
will be proven to be a good solution to limited budget only if they tell a good story with very strong characterisation, making it a word of mouth success Establish Dredd's character and turn a profit and there's hope they'll be able to go bigger next time Personally, I hope it leads to a Rogue Trooper movie (Statham?) actually being made, then maybe ABC Warriors, Strontium Dog and more 2000AD movies
-
Too big and too high up. Amazed no one commented on this at the early design testing phase.
-
June 22, 2012, 7:05 p.m. CST
The scale of the city evidenced by that trailer looks epic to me, Neebs ...
by sauchieboy
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PifvRiHVSCY Look at that aerial shot of the city, where all the megablocks are jutting up from the oceanic expanse of the rest of the city. The urban sprawl fills the screen and disappears off into the horizon. More than that, when the camera descends down to street level, and we see the impressive sweep of those overhead highways, the look of the city is real and tangible- and perfectly consistent with those wider shots. One of the things I found frustrating about the Stallone film's (technically impressive) effects, was the disconnect between the citywide panoramas and the street set the crew had built. I never felt that the Bladerunner boulevards had that much in common with the rooftops we saw peeking above the city's West wall. It's this film's integrated and cohesive world vision that I find so very impressive.
-
June 22, 2012, 7:38 p.m. CST
So now you are criticizing Blade Runner? Hmmm I would consider re-thinking that padre, since you are trying to muster a flock.
by the Green Gargantua
If you really are just an insane fan of this film and have no connection to the production I hope for your sake that it is good. If it does in fact suck ass you may suffer a catastrophic breakdown. What is a "Neebs" anyway? We do not use that phrase here. Is that some sort of jab?
-
Term of endearment.
-
" That makes you at least curious to find out for yourself."... nope, looks like ass.. no thanks.

It seems pretty faithful to the source material. The comic wasn't Shakespeare you know. Lets all go back to deluding ourselves that 48fps is somehow more superior to 24fps, but you know it's 24 better.

The helmet looks OK, every other piece of equipment, the cast, the city and tone are all just plain wrong. I will watch it as a generic action movie because it's clearly not based on the Judge Dredd I've been reading for the past 30 years.
