That's gonna be a very, very sloppy second, mind you.

Originally posted by SYSTEM-J It isn't a remake of Judge Dredd anymore than Batman Begins was a remake of Tim Burton's film. It's a separate adaptation of the comic. However, WittyHandle illustrates a basic problem with the Judge Dredd intellectual property: it isn't actually very well known, and so doesn't have the ready-made fanbase of more famous comics/graphic novels/sequential art/pretentious picture wank, thus harming its box office chances.

There was a twitter by Tim Burton saying: I despise comics.

Then one guy replied: This is why your Batman sucked.



Some serious changes that's been made in previous heroes that's been positive: Batman and James Bond.

awesome movie and soundtrack is badass

really? this was one of the worst movies that i have seen in a long time.

really ? you must have seen some amazing movies then

better than some horrible actor in a mask mimicking the batman voice.

les intouchables. great movie, but warning...they actually act in it.

He did sound a bit similar, but I think Bale's Batman has a more raspy voice

les intouchables, i heard about that one, will check it out.

He's doing a Clint Eastwood voice, Jay. Stick to deep house.

Stick to reading. That was the worst acting ever.

I was dying when I seen this fag running across the hall. The movie was lame, horrible acting and predictable story line.

The acting was pretty shallow, but I don't think it was trying to portray the characters as having much depth. I loved the movie for what it was, but I recognized pretty early on in it that acting was not it's strong suit. I DL'd Intouchables on your suggestion a while ago, that reminds me that I need to watch it.

lol i love how people expect deep characters in a movie based on a comic book

Yesterday I saw Serbuan Maut (2011) aka The Raid: Redemption.

Made me think of Dredd 3D, did see some awesome and funny moves.
Still don't know which one I like better though, maybe says enough for both.

I've seen the Raid on the recombination of my friend who said it was similar to this one

I've seen several people compare the two. I'll be watching it soon.

When people complain about the "acting", usually without any elaboration whatsoever, it tells me they don't know the first fucking thing about cinema, so they just mention the only technical thing they can name: acting. "This movie sucked because the acting was bad. Take my opinion seriously."

I think acting was great, maybe they mean writing as in the main villain wasn't very developed as a character

The acting was as good as it could have been within the context of the film. This movie was so fucking rad, step off haters.

JUDGEMENT

In that case they'd mean characterisation. Characterisation is generally achieved through either writing or acting, but cretinous Canadians can't spot the difference.

It's just easier not to, because I don't really have the energy to read a long winded diatribe on how my hating a movie is invalid because you enjoyed it. The bar for cinema is at an all time low. I know nothing of cinema though.

That much is apparent. I've got no problem with "I didn't like this movie", but when you start trying to validate your opinion by attacking technical aspects, then it looks cringeworthy.

EDIT: Also, for people comparing it to The Raid... yeah the premise is very similar (although it's totally coincidental), but the films are very different. The Raid is a very Asian action film with a big emphasis on the choreography of the fight scenes, and the whole feel of the film is totally different.

*sigh*

i agree. didn't feel at all like the 2000AD strip it was based off of, either. i mean, sly stone judge dredd was obviously a campy parody of sorts, this one was just a mediocre action film with a been-there-done-that plot. slow-mo? really??

watched it by myself once, fell asleep through it the second time while watching it with my dad. meh.

edit- and the acting was fine. i like kyle (keith? i dunno) urban. he did a great job as bones in the star trek reboot, imo.

I'd be so bold as to predicate that Wagners chronicled adventures of Judge Joseph Dredd are more akin to a graphical novel, than a comic book per se.
