@@Skull19O1Not in the city itself, megablocks are a result of 10 billion people living in one tiny patch of land because the rest of the US is a nuclear wasteland.
@lightweightjive i Highly doubt it's a good idea to make dredd as a series like amazon reacher. I believe it's best to make dredd a trilogy like the matrix / LOTR
Thinking of these buildings and not just made to house a huge amount of people as cheap as possible, but to do so in a way hardened for war is very dystopian, everything is so cheap in the tower, but the war measures look like they cost a lot. So for war defense to be justified there must been some *very* bad wars recently.
IIRC part of the setting is that it’s after a nuclear war occurred where the only surviving areas are the mega cities with everywhere else being irradiated wastelands
@@joshm9782 there were also a series of mega-disasters including a few wars, which saw a lot of fighting in the streets of Megacity-1. As a result, all of the new tower blocks were built to be stand-alone fortresses. They ended up doing just that, but they also have a strong resemblance to maximum security prisons, with the citizens being the inmates. Unemployment in MC-1 is usually around 80%, with even the rumor of a job causing riots. With all of their needs met by the state, citizens are left with nothing but time on their hands and a bleak future with few prospects. Crime is everywhere and rampant. Most judges automatically assume a citizens is guilty of something, because they usually are.
This is one movie I wish there was a sequel. Absolutely phenomenal CGI and aesthetic in the movie. I also love Dredd and his sidekick in this; they really sold the movie.
Never caught the NO MUTIES graffiti and that Anderson pauses and looks at it as she goes past it. How can an adaptation strip away so much of the wilder stuff from the comics and yet still be a perfect adaptation filled with amazing little references to the world outside peach trees
They did a good job of not leaning heavily on the fan base but still putting in things that they'd pick up on like the chopper tag or the fatty with his belly wheel
Nice little detail in the framing here I don't see anyone talk about. In this scene when MaMa goes to talk on the megaphone she's moves away from the camera and then she sits on the floor so she appears small and she speaks in a soft voice. When Dredd speaks on the megaphone his whole face takes up the screen and he talks in his usual growly voice. This highlights the difference between Dredd and MaMa, she is a common criminal who has delusions of being more powerful then she really is while Dredd is The Law and is so terrifying that other Judges fear him. As another commenter said, "For MaMa it was the fight of her life, for Dredd it was just another day at work."
One detail I noticed was the hiss of the microphone at that exact moment almost makes you think of someone going "ShiiiiiiiT" which would be appropriate given the situation if you were anyone other than Dredd.
"For MaMa it was the fight of her life, for Dredd it was just another day at work." This in a nutshell, with the added bit of having a "testie" along...
I dunno if that was the intent. I find MaMa's presentation substantially more intimidating than Dredd's specifically because of the understated framing.
the costuming in this film is good. The sympathetic gangster with a family stands out immediately because he's not only wearing different colors from the others but also is wearing a polo shirt.
@MrTsiolkovsky Well said my friend, I personally also love those aspects of the comics, but I don't think belliwheels would fly with the tone they were going for 😂
My favorite bit from the whole movie is that it's not like the Sylvester Stallone version in so many ways with Karl Urban wearing the helmet throughout the movie because he wanted to be Dredd while Sylvester only wore it in the beginning but wanted to show his face the whole time
A nice detail is how the music gets quiter as they are riding the elevator up after the gun fight on the stairs and then kicks in again when they emerge gun blazing.
Full agreement. But it needs to be 3rd person with motorcycle mechanics like Days Gone. Dredd could even call the bike to his location like in the comics.
I live in Rio, and depending on neighborhood you can become lock down because of police and factions shooting each other. My apartment is not on a slum but my windows have angles for stray bullets. One of my friends got shot by a stray AK round in the shoulder when coming back from playing card games. This movie really made me look at the civillians, the fat guy having lunch, the mother with her son playing video games, the child in her playground, the two grandmas backing away from the judges... All of these scenes I know someone or heard about situations similar to these. If you really want the cyberpunk dystopia, come to Rio (or any 3rd world metropolis for that matter)
"He's thinking about making a move for your gun." Little did he know that she didn't save him because of Dredd's own retaliation, but that the gun itself would not like that.
I love the dystopic idea that these people in these giant building probably live their entire lives in that one small hive. It's like warhammer 40k almost
Judge Dredd is literally just John Wick without the bullshit. No hatred to the movies, comparing the two is a little silly, and I love John Wick, but spectacle is the name of the game with JW and that's glroious, but it's nothing on Dredd's clinical efficiency. His ability to walk into gunfire and isolate and devistate targets is frankly unnerving. He's a fuckin' terminator. John Wick may be who you send the kill the Boogeyman, but Dredd is the guy you send when you want to kill the Grim fucking Reaper.
@@RicardoMoralesMassin he can be both. The raid is much more focused on martial arts, even though the premises are much more similar. JW is all about Gunplay, which Dredd excels at
I think pretty much any traditional game is like this. For non-open world game you kinda "can't escape" from the game, it is linear. But i find interconnected hub in a single location to be the one thats so much closer to the feeling of dredd and the raid. Something like dark soul 1, the Castlevenia series.
You're just a most likely underpaid service technician for the building doing your daily grind and gang bangers just kill you for being there cause they need the room.
A 2nd movie after Anderson with Judge Death as a folllow up would have been great!! Too bad the bean counters at the studio got in the way of a great franchise..😢
That exists in far too many places. TRON Legacy was a half billion dollar movie but Disney let TRON 3 (and TRON Uprising) die on the vine because a Marvel movie could make a whole billion. Meanwhile Joseph Kosinski goes on to revive another 80s franchise which is an even bigger hit.
Anderson: Sir, he's thinking of making a move for your gun. Dredd: 'Yup.' Thinking: *Oh, please be dumb enough to try. Please try. I won't even try to stop you* Anderson: 'He changed his mind.' Dredd: 'Yup.' Thinking: *aww... that would've been hilarious*
The judges pretty much are the government, this was a routine call out and chosen by anderson Judges tended to work alone or as a pair and as far as they knew this was a routine killing and she was a rookie judge on assessment who'd been trained from an early age if she followed the standard career path of a judge. She'd failed tests but they wanted her for the psy division which is why she was paired with dredd for one last attempt.
It wasn’t really that they were dispatched to go to peach trees, it’s more like she chose to go to peach trees and dispatch approved it. Which doesn’t seem so unreasonable, considering the level of violence everywhere else anyways.
I hate HATE “emergency protocols” that immediately dim the lights and start blasting deafening sirens. Good luck trying to survive when everything is dimly lit and your ears are ringing.
Interesting that’war’ protocol is different from ‘bomb’. So this is meant for actual on the ground, something different from just a nuke. Also makes me wonder how procedures for riot and chemical would differ
I presume "war" is just the top level "shit has hit the fan" level. Riot likely just locks up the ground floors, chemical isolates the air circulation, though idk what bomb would do
Megacity One was designed to survive World War 4 should it ever occur (and in the comics, it did). Every hab block is designed to totally lock down in the event of a nuclear assault or ground invasion from hostile forces. The lockdown for nuclear attack was triggered during World War 4 (also called the Apocalypse War) between Megacity One and Sov Eastmeg One (a Soviet mega city). The war lockdown was triggered when the Sovs launched a ground invasion of Megacity One, and later during the Judgement Day crisis when millions of zombies attempted to storm the city.
They did so much in this movie they didnt leave room for a sequal. Mama a huge narco dealer A hacker capable of controlling the block 4 corrupt judges. Dredd and Anderson were great, but what do you do to top this?
All in all, the film is set mostly in one location, Peach Trees, a single tower block. Then again it's essentially an arcology and probably a microcosm for Mega City One in general, but outside of that it is a fairly small-scale conflict. A sequel would have something affecting a larger portion of the city - for example, the "Day of Chaos" arc from the comics might prove interesting, although its subject matter might be "too soon".
In a lock-in, recover ALL arms and ammo from all you drop. Even absolute junk still provides suppression. Off hand blind is even fine in total b.s.. Great flick still.
Rebellion, the company which owns (or owned I don't remember) the character did a first person shooter something like 20 years ago, it's called Judge Dredd: Dredd vs Death and is pretty good
Its considered part of the Peach Trees megablock, so since the emergency services for that area were already notified to be ignored due to the test, it would not go through.
The cinema I saw it at was sold out, but this was in England! Same with the full-on Grindhouse double feature. It came out as two seperate movies, because "Britain never had a tradition of double features", which for one is BS, that tradition just ended earlier, and for two, so what? We speak the same language as America and watch more of their media than our own, I think we "get it". Anyway a few cinemas put on the full Grindhouse as a one-off showing, every one sold out.
@@worldcomicsreview354 I saw it in a double bill with Lawless (ok film but didn't grab me like Dredd 3D) first and Dredd 3D after. Wasn't expecting anything from Dredd at-all, nearly didn't even watch it in fact... amazing looking back. Never seen two 18 rated films together like that in the cinema before or since. They're actually quite rare let alone 2 at once
The fact that if she had just left them alone for THIRTY MORE SECONDS they'd be gone and that's why she's being hunted by Dredd now is hilarious to me.
Nah, they even explain it that if K had died they would've let the judges leave, but the Judges would've got him to talk and exposed Mama's whole operation.
Locking Dredd and Anderson inside Peach Trees was a deliberate play. Kay knew too much about her drug operation and didn't want him to be taken into custody for interrogation. Had that happened, a lot more than 2 Judges would have been dispatched to Peach Trees.
Whut? He does not have any plot armour. He got a hole blown through him and was saved by Anderson. He ran from miniguns. He ran out of ammo. Why does a film need to have a message? It needs to have a story so it did - it was Anderson's training day.

It came out as two seperate movies, because "Britain never had a tradition of double features", which for one is BS, that tradition just ended earlier, and for two, so what? We speak the same language as America and watch more of their media than our own, I think we "get it".
Anyway a few cinemas put on the full Grindhouse as a one-off showing, every one sold out.
@@worldcomicsreview354 I saw it in a double bill with Lawless (ok film but didn't grab me like Dredd 3D) first and Dredd 3D after. Wasn't expecting anything from Dredd at-all, nearly didn't even watch it in fact... amazing looking back.
Never seen two 18 rated films together like that in the cinema before or since. They're actually quite rare let alone 2 at once
We’re not allowed to have good things anymore we’re forced to watch bang average Netflix and Amazon shows.
Dredd with the BIG BLACK ... Guns
2:35 aew fan
The fact that if she had just left them alone for THIRTY MORE SECONDS they'd be gone and that's why she's being hunted by Dredd now is hilarious to me.
Nah, they even explain it that if K had died they would've let the judges leave, but the Judges would've got him to talk and exposed Mama's whole operation.
Locking Dredd and Anderson inside Peach Trees was a deliberate play. Kay knew too much about her drug operation and didn't want him to be taken into custody for interrogation. Had that happened, a lot more than 2 Judges would have been dispatched to Peach Trees.
Chinese guy should have listened
Didn't realize Avon was in this movie lmao
Biggest badass in this movie? The homeless Asian guy
More like flatass
No cred - no med.

Hux isn't looking too good
Dredd having unlimited plot armor, makes this movie a vapid decoration with no message.
Whut? He does not have any plot armour. He got a hole blown through him and was saved by Anderson. He ran from miniguns. He ran out of ammo.
Why does a film need to have a message?
It needs to have a story so it did - it was Anderson's training day.
Judge Dredd predicted '15 minute cities' XD
Really that scene with them jacking the control room was a little unnecessary. That should have been done when they took control of the block.
2:35 An actual Fatty.
I like Lena Headey with dark hair more than blonde hair. Also, I like her evil in movies too, there's something I love about beautiful evil women with dark hair 🤤🤤
You should use what ever weapon you want. Not what a D list streamer tell's ya.
dumb uc😂
This movie is so goddamn dumb. But I like it.
Wdym
this movie missed the ENTIRE POINT of its predecessor its laughable.
This is so bad its cartoonish
lol
What? This is the only Dredd adaptation.
@@jocramkrispy305 first movie with sylvester stalone in the 90's
this is a simplistic, no sublety and the plot and writing is weak
the 1st movie was far more interesting and the bad guys were far deeper and better written.
this newest one is comically bad
lol
@@Winston-lf7sb #1 rule of Dredd: you never see Dredd's face (even DM, but no spoilers)
Such a bad movie.
Just another shitty girlboss remake.
The CGI blood and shooting is so bad though we need squibs and goo again
It looked good in 3D.
This film almost shouldn't be seen in 2D at all
