| Have you ever considered being correct about something for once? I honestly can't remember the last time that you've said anything that wasn't completely asinine. Extra chromosomes are no excuse. |

i find by exaggerating how dumb someone is, you really do a disservice tho those that really are at that level. You guys are all pretty smart and are just smacking your penises around. They are all impressive.
I mean when you consider what all this animosity is about. a word, it is pretty silly.
Russell, i didn't include you in the nice penis group. You never sent a pic. So ya. Still waiting. |

I knew very well it would suck. But how much was a surprise. I am amazed Liam Neeson signed up for this one. I mean i will be honest i watched less than 30 minutes. But it was painful. I mean this is the type of movie people usually walk out. |
Get outta town. Liam Neeson long ago lost whatever credibility he had. These days it seems like all he does is ty action flicks. "Taken", "Unknown", etc. |

Whatever you say, chap. I know you're always right.
Also nice deflection. I asked you a question you ing tool. |
You were arguing with L4C. Let me present to you the definition of "argue", Captain Semantics:

That's what you were doing. With the guy who was apparently "gonna back you up". Nobody in the thread has agreed with you on this matter so far, and several people have actively called you an idiot. Do you genuinely think you're coming out of this well, or are you secretly aware that your over-reaching attempt to put me down has backfired, and you're currently hoping that if you call me a tool enough times you'll get away with it?
Meanwhile, somewhere close to being on topic:

I both agree and disagree with what you're saying here. While it is clearly true that even the most useless piece of cinematic is always an ideological expression, there is an important distinction to be made between films which are deliberately creating an artistic framework which intends to communicate a certain set of ideas or messages, and films that are unwitting ideological vehicles. You may still be able to write a film-student essay on films like Transformers or Battleship, but that does not make them good or thoughtful. I also think you're far too eager to reach for extremely tenuous meta-textual justifications for god awful films.
Dredd is not a film laden with messages or subtexts, but it is an extremely artistic film. The artistry invested in almost every second of screen time on almost every level of cinematic function - visual design, editing, writing, acting, music, sound design - is first rate. This film is a work of concentrated art, and the fact it's basically an ultra-violent science fiction action flick should not detract from that. "Making you think" is only a small part of an intelligently made film. You only have to look at like Prometheus which trips over itself to "make you think" and thus apparently ascends from entertainment-movie to serious-film, but as a piece of narrative it's an amateur, incoherent mess. |

"There’ll probably never be another Judge Dredd movie"

"He may be the law, but Judge Dredd has been overruled at the box office. Dredd didn't even meet the studio's lowball estimates of $9 million to $10 million in its first weekend in the United States, pulling in an estimated $6.3 million instead. And it hasn't even done well enough in the U.K. and other European countries to compensate." |

I also found this on a corner in the internet, and I would love to hear your comments on it, j-man, as I found the split between cinema/dvd fascinating. |
