Really hope Karl Urban decides to reprise the role. Such a great Dredd.
Karl Urban is to Dredd, like Ryan Reynolds is to Deadpool.
He actually did say he would love to do more Dredd movies. He loves the character and the setting.
He could be a good Batman too.
Damn. Why have no one notice this. Karl Urban is essentially Arkham's Bruce Wayne, he got the bod, the talk and the look.
I thought I remember him saying he'd love to do it if a second one comes about.
I loved this movie, of all the movies that get pointless sequels, this one deserves one more than most.
For sure!
Nina bobo
Amen
Wait I thought this was a reboot
THE COLD SAMURAI It is, I’m saying it deserves a sequel.
I cannot believe this movie bombed.. It is so good!
Yeah, thats called bombing. Just because you articulate why, or how, doesnt change the fact that it bombed. Sigh, I think you got a little ego on you, mr human.
War Against Myself don't worry a tv series is coming out.
With Karl? Now that would be epic. I wanted a sequel so bad.
Great film overall.
I don't think it bombed so much as it just fell short. I thought it made all the money back that was spent in making it o.O
One of my favorite movies of all time. Really wish for a sequel
me too :(
Me too.
did Danny DeVito give u that name?
If he does the TV series and it does good, we could possibly get a new movie.
The Toll Troll me too and my dad
(Deep voice): bike activate crowd control.
Now honestly this is one of my favourite movies. Underrated gem
Same here! Violence done beautifully :)
FilmComicsExplained yep.specialy the beggining part and the fight ti the top of the skyscrapper.its just dystopian cyberpunk goodness
The motorcycle should have also deployed a police line strips to activate crowd control and not just speaking to the crowd 😅
And the scariest thing about Dredd is... it wasn't about a big incident, it was about an average day the Judges have to face.
One of the few movies that uses CGI and 3d effects efficiently and to their fullest.
Really wish they had made the sequels.
The narrative cohesion with it being under the effects of a drug that puts everything into slow motion is fantastic.
I love it. This is only one work day. Lol
i feel like the sheer response from Peach Tower was alot like “hitting the mansion” considering it’s claimed Ma Ma controls majority if not ALL of the slo - mo distribution towards the end of the movie and she is still seeking to expand into two more sectors i can’t name, definitely a great movie we can both attest to that though
edit: obv my reply only will apply to the film adaptation though rather than a blanket lore statement
Karl was superb with his rendition of Dredd. Made Stallone look like a amature, who of course had to have his face shown.
Greymark Urban's Dredd is MUCH superior to Stallone's "Er errrm...der leeerrrrr!"
Well, Stallone's Judge Dredd was meant to be a violent action comedy. It's still good, one of those so bad it's fun films.
No street judge would remove their helmet in the field.
Karl is a great actor, loved him on Doom, great as Dr. McCoy, was on a TV show as a cop with a robot. All around great actor.
@Bigg Papa A+ Trolling 👍
The actor playing Dredd took a lot of guts playing a character knowing he won't be getting any fame as his face is hidden. I guess at least he got paid good in the end, he had no problem with it.
He had no problem with it as he was a 2000ad reader as a kid. He understands that Dredd's face is *never* seen. Even when injured (or a different character - that actually happened!!! A badly burned character swathed in bandages turned out to be Dredd; out in the Cursed Earth).
I think Urban insisted on it lol
Karl Urban's mouth is recognisable from miles away.
He's bones in star trek
Didn’t Stallone play dredd ? I doubt it matters if your face is covered lol
@@therealforeignwolf
Yes he did, but because of his ego or bad direction his face was shown alot in the movie. The 2012 Dredd with Urban is in a league of its own.
I really liked the ‘12 dredd movie! Karl did a hell of a job pulling off a gritty AF dredd.
Yeh man I agree!
Why weren't any sequels made?
No idea why, it was a quality film in pretty much every respect!.... It deserved to have a full trilogy imo
It really does
@@puppetmasterey It failed at the box office
This movie was so badass.
Loved this film, they really need to make a sequel with proper promotion.
Leave it to you to find the philosophical undertones in a Judge Dredd movie. Karl Urban is such a great actor!!
As much as I like the original for its campiness this one blew it out of the water
I could tell it was Karl Urban just by his jaw
AvenjaNinja A jaw worthy of Dredd.
Thats a mans jaw ✊ take one look at that thing and naaah man i surrender
He is the Law! The most underated action movie when it was released, Love this movie, I wish they continue this with Urban as Dredd.
darkovilos ikr
This is by far, the most badass film I've ever seen, the scenes are just spectacular and the slowmo kills is mesmerizing to say the least, definitely would want a sequel.
One of my favorite films the soundtrack that went with it was amazing, nicely explored great vid dude keep it up !!
I still remember that amazing game that featured Dredd against Judge Death, the horsemen Dark Judges.
Loved doing my best in the game for that amazing Dredd quote: "I AM THE LAW!"
What game?
This was such a underrated movie!
Imagine a zombie outbreak in the middle section of one of those complexes and they had to quarantine it, sending judges via helicopter form the roof entrance and fight their way down.
There's actually a story in the comics where most of Mega City One's citizens were turned into zombies by the Dark Judges. I think it's called Judgment Day or something.
@@zainabe9503 woah
Zen RD Your mixing two stories together. Necropolis is where The Dark Judges, aided by the Sisters of Death, use their infernal powers to take control of the Judges and MC1 before systematically ‘Judging’ (ie killing) the citizens. “The crime is life. The sentence is death”. Whereas Judgement Day centres on a Necromancer called Sabat who uses the planets own power to reanimate all the dead of the earth as zombies. Both stories are mind blowing.
@@douglasarthur2673 sounds very similar to the game dredd v death
I'm not familiar with Judge Dredd's canon but that sounds like an awesome idea for a video game.
How this movie hasn't received a sequel is beyond me... this was one of the best action movies I've ever seen.
this movie was clearly sabotaged by the studio by ordering a 3d only release...
Unfortunately it was the buzzword at the time. So many films released in 3D and many re-made as 3D, even when it didn't make sense.
Loved this movie, I hope they do green light a sequel.
Mr. Urban is a underrated actor.
Karl Urban is one of my favorite actors!!
Wait, what?! They're undead judges??? Can you do a vid on that in the future? It kinda interesting heheh :)
Yeh i know right, and of course, will add them to the list now :)
i have been told that even batman himself has met dredd ( with andreson stopping them ) and come to blows lol. there is a gamecube game called 'dredd vrs death' if yo want to get a look, someone may have done a play or review somewhere :)
During the 80's 2000ad ran a Dredd story which was an analogue of the Four horseman of the apocalypse. Four death judges came from another dimension where it was observed all crime was committed by the living and therefore made life a crime punishable by death. it has been revisited many times in the UK comic 2000ad where Dredd is still the main comic strip character.
its about time for another dread movie
An incredible film with a great soundtrack.
Urban was perfect, and film was true to the incredible comics
Yes! Been hoping you would go into this after watching your Dredd v Predator videos.
A good video dude thank you and keep up the good work
This is one of those rare movies that satisfies both your instant gratification fast food cravings, and a proper gourmet smoked salmon dish. Somewhere in between. Awesome, explosive action that delivers on all fronts and only leaves you hungry because you can't get enough of it.
Little bit of creativity, little bit of care. Makes a perfectly satisfying dish.
I didn't even know there were Undead Judges.
Darth Sidious because they are *D E A D* already
gaze into the face of fear.............gaze into the fist of dredd!!!
Death, Fear and Fire are the three that I remember. I think that the fourth one was called famine but I'm not sure. They reasoned that as crime was committed by the living then life itself was a crime! Needless to say they preside over a dead world! They were repeat characters and were some of Dredd's most dangerous foes, especially as they couldn't be captured or even permanently killed.
I'll have to dig out my Dredd year books and read the story again now. There was a follow up story where Dredd and Anderson actually went to their dimension to try to destroy them.
Could you do a Dunkirk (2017) explored? Btw great video as usual.
Sure! will add it to the list now buddy :)
FilmComicsExplained Thanks look forward to it :)
man if we're looking at dredd you gotta do demolition man that was an awesome movie in my opinion
Oh yeah sounds good! i might also take a look at Stallones Dredd at some point. Adding them both to the list now :)
ProToken 420 I'm sure he has maybe he meant look into doing a video on it
Demolition Man...Wesley Snipes goes absolutely fucking batshit insane, and it's great!
He's not avery dreadful person once you get to know him...far worse I reckon.
True dat!
It's only because his boots are too tight. Otherwise he's fairly relaxed in his off-time. Where relaxed means ready to kill lawbreakers at a moments notice if they interrupt his reading of the city law code and enjoying his synthi-caff. Without ever removing his helmet.
kirby march Barcena shut up
Idiot...I didn't even talk so why would I do that?
kirby march Barcena he is a heartless tyrant. If you are police, judge,jury and executioner all at once that automatically makes you a heartless tyrant. It's part of the definition of tyrant.
What an awesome movie! I really wish there will be a sequel. I’d also like to see the Batman/Judge Dredd graphic novel be adapted to the big screen. Great video, thanks!
Karl Urban Frickin nailed it.
I really liked Karl Urban as Dredd. The newer Judge Dredd was a perfect representation of comic book Dredd come to big screen. That drug Slo-Mo was intense. Great film!
This was an absolutely brilliant rendition. So sad it bombed. Insanely underrated. We need more.
Judgement time, what a awesome film.
If there were no courts just one person that acted as judge jury and executioner in each city, would the crime rate decrease out of fear of the judge or would it increase from people trying to make an example out of the judges?
RollingxBigshot Interesting question... I think it's the latter of the two. People don't react well to being dominated by fear...
RollingxBigshot Both. it would be a mix of both regular citizens would be in fear however Criminals will view the judge as an invitation of challenge to their own markets or to their rule over civilians.
For a government to be healthy it should be the latter.
You should do one of these on daybreakers it's a awesome vampire movie with a really original premise
To bad this movie isn't getting a sequel. It was actually good
Please do The raid next one, it's a masterpice franchise and you will love it
I mean the Raid is why Dredd bombed because people were comparing it to all hell going super elitist only watching 1 over the other with even the critics.
Dissapointing really
One of my favorite dredd movie ever,this is way better the Sylvester Stallone movie judge dredd.
A simply AWESOME movie!
Man I miss playing the video game version
Just subscribed yesterday after watching your doom and event horizon video, woke up to this.... Super happy
And in doing so you are now getting a healthy dosage of Karl Urban :)
The way Karl keeps that snarl/scowl on his face throughout the whole film is great. It's a great film.
Hey what's up great video
Thanks David!
I literally just watched this lol
Good movie. The film is across between Dirty Harry, Die Hard and Robocop 2. Karl Urban was born to play Judge Dredd. Lena Headey's acting in the movie was bad.
Do the movie priest
Take notes post 2016
This is how you have “strong female characters” and a really well played strong female villain
WITHOUT ruining the main character or the original IP
Dredd is a masterful film. It's a mixture of dirty harry, training day. As a a kid who grew up reading 2000AD this is everything I could have wanted.
I agree about the 3D as this put me off and I didn't bother watching at the cinema. When it came out on dvd I was like OMG. This is brilliant. I fully support this style of cinematography, storyline, characterisation for a series.
Keith Urban is PERFECTLY cast as Dredd. Dredd is Clint Eastwood as dirty harry.
I'd love to see all the other storylines drawn in, the dark judges, drawing out the wasteland etc.
Using the effects for ultra violence in slow motion with in setting justification for why is top tier filmmaking.
If cyberpunk 2077 need a movie this is the movie to be 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 also one of the best reboots I seen
It's not a reboot. This is the version worked on with the creators of Dredd. The...other...was a cheap cash grab. This is the *only* Dredd novie...
I love dredd. I always thought people had just forgotten about him. It makes me sad that there’s almost no content like this movie. I love it so much but nobody ever makes any movies for it ::
Watched and loved it!!!! I hope they make a sequel!😎👍
this movie was awesome but people are stupid and want horrible shit like transformers or fast and furious. had this come out in the 70s or 80s it would be a classic like robocop, terminator or alien. it's sad to see good movies like this one or the new blade runner flop.
by the way, so far I think this was the closest we got to a "new robocop movie". I know it's not robocop... but just imagine a new movie of the original ultraviolent robocop set in that city.
Such an amazing movie. So underrated!!
I can’t understand how this film was ignored by most, it is awesome. For the love of all things decent, someone make a sequel still using Karl Urban & Olivia Thirlby. This film makes the Stallone version look pants.
Producers: Let's have a 3D-Only theater release
Producers: Why did this bomb?
I love the Dredd movie!
I don't know if it was 3D that made it fail, Judge Dredd comics doesn't have a very big fan base. (Too much bad taste in comics out there! 😉)
Loved this movie the first time I saw it, loved it so much I own it on dvd
I accidentally broke a vase at home and my mom is surely going to find out. Im So DREDD
I would never break the LUR!
I AM THE LURRR!
This rendition was far superior to the original movie. I loved the dark, visceral and supremely dystopian vibe of Mega City 1 and the entire setting was perfected to a T. I still have my fingers crossed for a sequel some day.
I love how this move has become a cult classic. People didn’t go to see it in theaters but since then more and more people have realized what a gem it is. Hopefully there is a sequel with Karl Urban. But I’m also happy that at least this one was made. I don’t like when sequels are crap.
Lena headey killed it as mama, she was terrifying
Perfect exploration. I actually enjoyed this version a bit more than the original. Dredd is definitely more badass in this one. This is the Dredd I've always wanted to see. Similar to the comic book Judge Dredd.
Anyway, great video, and thanks for the upload. Thumbs up!
This *is* the original. Simple.
I just found out about this character, I didn’t even know his name. Never knew about him, so I’m asking if it would make sense for me watch the movie? Would it make sense to enjoy?
If you like this movie and Asian films, watch The Raid: Redemption. Squad of cops go into an apartment building, criminals fight back, death and kick-ass martial art scenes ensue
This movie is awesome! The makers did everything right, like letting go of the comic book mega city one...It didn't work, we saw that in Stallone's Dredd! Urban's desolate, distopian concrete warzone WITHOUT flying cars and such works way better on the big screen! No trees or any kind of vegetation, just sheer hopelessnes...And Dredd trying desperately to hold civilisation together with everything he's got! But he really doesn't execute people on a whim, you know! He follows the law and dished out punishment fitting the crime according the law! Fucking beautiful, man!
17,000 reported crimes a day in a population of 800,000,000 isn’t a bad statistic at all, that’s actually a very low crime rate. That’s only 1 crime for every 47,000 residents. I don’t think there’s a crime rate that low anywhere in the world, even Antarctica.
you are doing an amazing job! keep up the great work, i really enjoy your channel :)
Thanks buddy!
Best line of the film..
"What happened?"
"Drug bust. Perps were uncooperative."
A fantastic movie FUCKED over for a well deserved sequel because a studio wanted to focus on a gimmick that was already unpopular at the time.
I loved this film! I'm a big fan of the comics and I really appreciated this stripped back film that got to grips with the basics. It didn't have the budget to do Mega City One justice (no pun intended) so it focused most of the action in a Mega City towerblock.
Actors and actresses were fabulous! I could tell that there was a lot of love behind this.
Very nice review of one of my favourite films! Many thanks!
only positive comments here. damn right. hope the cast and crew know they did a wonderful job delivering a kick-ass movie to the fans. the studio can go f*** itself for the sabotage. i hate 3d. my head hurts a lot after just 30min of watching. but now i own this movie in my private collection and i am proud of it
Dredd was so good in 3d at the theatre, probably one of the best uses of 3d in movies, made the slowmo and shoot-out scenes really pop i've watched it multiple times at home and in my opinion 3d on the big screen is the best way to watch it
anyone familiar with the comics appreciated the karl urban dredd.stallone's was a pathetic joke.
Great movie. Very under-rated imo. Love the gritty, violent world it was as opposed to the goofy Stallone version
I'm a little late but Great Video bro i grew up on the old version Lol Nyant is a badass 👍🤘☮️
I was so into 2000AD as a kid. Bought it from age 7 to age 16 (only stopped because my family moved to Asia). There's no way this stuff could be made into a single film, it needs to be a series. With CGI it can happen. It really annoys me that it hasn't happened yet. It's simply incredible and once some production company commits to it they'll make a huge amount of cash if it's done properly.
While i really hope Urban comes to the tv show, i also seriously hope they get Thirlby back as well. The more i see her in, the more i like her
Dredd was a great movie, a million times better then the stalone variant. To bad they didnt go for a triology 😥
Also there is a game called dishonored 1 (2012) where there is a reference about this in the game
The clarity of this movie on bluray is insane
Cant wait for the TV Series!
Me neither!
One of the best comic book films ever imo. Karl Urban is a great judge dredd and Lena Headey as mama is an amazing villain. Shame they never got to continue the trilogy but fortunately it works perfectly as a standalone film
Loved that movie.
Spooky
This isn't an "exploration" - it's just a narration of the plot.
It’s 4 in the morning why aren’t you asleep ?
Its 9:30 at night here in australia :)
People: The world is so desensitized to violence these days
France during the 1700-1800s:.........
Instant Classic in my opinion, Karl Urban is badass here
It's a shame they haven't made any sequels or expansions yet, Dredd is a fantastic fictional world and I really want to see more of it.
Edit: Huh a TV series, this could be great if they present it correctly, Dredd would probably fit better in a TV format.
Been waiting for this 💯
Hey man! Would be great to see you take a look into the zombies in state of decay since you know the sequel and all. much love bro!
The slo mo scene during the raid had my heart pumping
