Yes.

>>217729967
Better? Yes.
It's good without comparing it though, better than most action movies in the past 15 years
>>
>>217729967
Lightyears. It’s a shame this movie never had a sequel. It’s great.
>>
>>217729967
Easily. It's a fucking travesty we never got a sequel and instead are getting a Taika Cohen reboot that will undoubtedly be fucking awful.
>>
>>217729967
Good movie but it's way over hyped for what it is.

Wasn't there supposed to be a tv show or something?

Have you seen it?

Announced almost a decade ago. Nothing came from that

>>217729967
It is, though that one had a more comic accurate Mega City One. This one doesn’t have the budget it deserves but is a much stronger film overall
>>
>>217729967
Judge Dredd as a character yes. The biggest fuck up of the 95 one is that Stallone acted as Stallone, not Judge Dredd .
The only thing is kinda fucks up is how serious the world is.
The whole point of the comics is how despite all the grim dictatorial dystopia, still a very silly setting where the unbending "no fun allowed" Dredd has to deal with all kind of wacky shit.
>>
>>217729967
It's different.

You guys are worried about the reboot being directed by Takea Whitetitty.
I'm worried about it being written by the guy who did Iron Man 3 and Hotel Artemis.
>>
>>217731360
It's a disaster across the board. Literally zero reason to expect it to be anything other than total shit.

Don't be ridiculous, Dredd has tonnes of fun - pic related is one of the happiest moments of his life

>>217729967
Overall a more competently made movie, but the 95 movie is closer to the comic's aesthetic and humor.

Was this the only 3D movie during that digital 3D fad around 2012 that was worth the extra price tag despite Avatar making billions and dropping the 3D gimmick in sequels instead of being the promised springboard for no glasses 3D that Cameron never followed through on?

Its the reason Karl Urban became the hottest man for edgy show casting.

>>217730091
Waititi Cohen has been shopping around his Dredd project for almost two years and nobody is interested. Hollywood is as tired of him and his schtick as they are with Flight of the Conchords and that unfunny Rhys Darby. Basically, ‘New Zealand’ projects are cooked. Waititi, Jackson, that fat kid from Deadpool 2, none of them are getting traction. Hell, even Sam Neill and Rusty Crowe aren’t doing much these days.

Way better than the 95 one. Also I want Cassandra to mind rape me.

>>217731754
It's a great idea. Ideally he'll direct himself in the role of Dredd with Rob Schneider returning as his quirky sidekick.
>>
>>217730823
Covid shit. Bet they had to do it because even in the comics, it predicted it some way. It would have starred some girl boss in it to ruin it. Even the black chick in the 2012 movie was okay and did not ruin anything and wasn't much in the film.
>>
>>217729967
It really is. Maybe it's a seamless blend of CGI and practical? Or the fact that it wasn't so cheesy?

It's ridiculous, but at no point does it state itself as ridiculous. There is a power in that. For art, not for politics.

It's odd that that retarded male feminist Garland was in charge of writing this. I'm guessing he saw it as a trade off to making the big-bad a woman as a form of power.

No. And it´s not even close. Stallone movie has a phenomenal world building and art design but, perhaps most importantly, it doesn´t forget it´s comic book origins. That´s absolutely more interesting and fun to watch than a grounded movie about a cop entering an apartment complex to bring down a drug dealer.

Movies based on comics should embrace the traits of their original medium and bring it to the screen.
>>
>>217732151
2012 was a characters study of Dredd, not a story about the greater world, its more grounded in the comic book Dredd character instead of removing his helmet most of the film.
>>
>>217732344
The movie is named after a person. Dredd. So everything that comes after is secondary.

Let me try and put it this way: The first Dredd movie was more of a Stallone vehicule The 2nd Dredd felt move lively. Dredd was a consequence of the city.

The premise is that Dredd is the law? The law is judge, juror and executionor by a person we deem morally sound? Or is it an enforcer? "just" the practice of law?

It's pretty cool shit, guised as action movie machismo and guns, which is what we like, right?
>>
>>217732344
>2012 was a characters study of Dredd, not a story about the greater world

This would be fine if there were then a bunch of sequels that actually did something bigger. The fact that this is all we're getting just makes it feel like a big missed opportunity in the end
>>
>>217729967
It's better than the 95 movie but somewhat misses the point of the Judge Dredd character/comic
>>
Wasn't this ghost directed by somebody else?
>>
>>217732344

Characters don´t exist in a vacuum. Some characters can only exist when the context allows them to. Pushing the world to extremes is necessary for characters like Dredd or Batman to be.
>>
>>217729967
A lot better
>>
>>217732501
No it doesn't. Fags cherrypick comics and complain that the 2012 film is "too serious" and are also apparently too dumb to pick up on the film's satirical elements.
>>
>>217729967
Is everybody in this thread retarded? It sucked. It was a lame, Hollywood remake of The Raid with no charm or soul. Just bad actors, ugly cinematography and boring action scenes. The 95 film wasn't good either but at least it was entertainingly bad. The Karl Urban film feels like straight to DVD slop. Nothing memorable or noteworthy. Complete waste of 2 hours.
>>
I rate them the same but for completely different reasons.
>>
>>217729967
Just watch the raid instead for basically the same film but better
>>
>>217732653
It's common knowledge that The Raid writers got ahold of the Dredd script which was leaked and used that to make The Raid. The Raid is the ripoff, although both borrow heavily from the Die Hard formula and are hardly original
>>
>>217732728
The movie isn't meant to be played for good acting; it's for the action and special effects mostly. You can find all of this with corny lame one liners mostly.
>>
>>217732713
Crazy that they made it 2years before dredd came out and that hollywood studios and writers are not litigious about their IP
>>
>>217732713
dont care, The Raid 2 is the greatest fighting movie ever made. But i have never heard anyone call dredd a remake of raid. Dredd 2012 is fantastic, one of the few films my date came out just as excited as me. I have theory someone got a promotion in hollywood and this person views hollywood directly responsible for trump voters,, idk its the only thing i can think of why films are so bad. Raid fight choregrapgy is literally unmatched by USA
>>
>>217732151
You think the entirety of the Dredd comics was just like the Stallone movie? Really?
As a guy who grew up reading 2000ad from the early 80’s to the mid 90’s I can tell you the window of overlap between Stallone Dredd and the comics was pretty fucking small.
>>
>>217732653

No, just you.

I bet you like Fury Road too. Sorry your iq is below 70.

>>217729967
Not even close
>>
>>217732833
It wasn't a full 2 years and its really not at all crazy when you consider all the post production CGI and 3D conversion necessary for Dredd while The Raid was a straightforward action edit.
>>
>>217732728
He proved that in the boys
>>
>>217729967
The Stallone Dredd movie had a much better interpretation of Mega City 1 (as opposed to Dredd's, which just looked like modern day Mexico City with a few skyscraper sized habs), as well as Diane Lane being hot as FUCK and Armande Assante chewing through scenery like he's a fucking Langolier.

That said, the Urban Dredd movie was significantly more accurate to the comic, and instead of doing a whole big story arch it instead just focuses on being a day in the life type of film that is basically just "Judge Dredd's average Tuesday shift" (which makes the story tighter and more focused). Also, the chick who played Anderson is a top tier cutie patootie.

tl;dr - watch them both. The biggest complaint fans had with '95 was Judge Dread taking off his helmet, but the reasoning for that was the director basically saying "there's no way in hell we're spending 10 million dollars to hire Sylvester Stallone and then keeping his face covered for the entire movie", which is kinda understandable (especually considering how most film audiences would be completely unfamiliar with the character).
>>
>>217732879
this.
>>
>>217729967
Yes and no.
Dredd had the best depiction of the character but Judge Dredd had the best depiction of Mega City.
>>
>>217729967
Stallone takes off the judge helmet lol, people who like that movie over 2012 are retarded
>>
>>217733886
>Dredd had the best depiction of the character but Judge Dredd had the best depiction of Mega City.

This.
The problem with Dredd 2012 is that when you remove the city and the worldbuilding all the outside context then the character isn't actually particularly interesting. You're just left with a very grumpy guy who cares a lot about the law.

>>217733677
this

>>217729967
Yes

>>217732844
The Raid films are mogged by just about any Hong Kong action flick from the 80s or 90s

Dredd isn't always serious - can be really funny at times.

Big worry about Waititi is he'll ask to do the Democracy Now! storyline and turn it into sparkletroll antifa junk, when it ends in [pic related].

>can arrest people for being too fat

>>
>>217736216
But Judge Dredd humour is genrally a bit bleak or black, which is something modern writers are terrible at
>>
>>217729967
By a fucking mile. 90s dredd feels like a total recall rup off
>>
Yes, but the film is a lot uglier. The costumes worn by criminals and civilians look like shitty discount clothes from a Kmart and the color grading is awful. They couldve spent more time making the world more visually pleasing.
>>
>>217731177
>The whole point of the comics
There's more than one type of Dredd comic, and the point changes depending on the type. The wacky stuff is about half of Dredd, maybe. There are also serious stories like Democracy Now and Satan that don't have a single joke or wacky moment in them. The second Dredd film corresponds to that vein of the comics.
>>
>>217729967
Easily the best. For one Dredd kept his helmet on. First helmet character ive seen do that in decades
>>
>>217737940
Yeah I scratch my head at the retards who post the image of Dredd making fun of fatties and go "YOU SEE? DREDD IS A COMEDY!!!" as if a single story is proof that Dredd shouldn't be serious.

Also there ARE jokes in Dredd 2012. Just not goofy shit like Rob Schneider. The mall announcement that they will be re-opening in five minutes after they clean up the dead bodies, or the homeless man that gets squashed by the blast door, the 2012 film has dark humor as well as one-liners from Dredd.
>>

>>217736393
The strips from the newspapers were pretty funny, mainly because they were limited to 8 panels so couldn't tell deep or hard-hitting stories. I wonder if there's a book collection of them.
>>
>>217733965
Did you not watch the film? It does an expo dump right off the bat (not that people unfamiliar with the source material are likely to watch the movie anyway).
Do you need ‘worldbuilding and context’ for Das Boot? Rambo: First Blood? The Mad Max films? High Plains Drifter? Yojimbo? Of course not. Huff farts elsewhere, petty child.
>>
>>217740092
Pretty much all the Dredd stuff has been collected in trade paperback but good luck finding it all. There’s tons of it.

I mean that. Go ahead and put your money where your mouth is. What would you have added to Dredd that would have given it that ‘rich and vibrant’ character without adding twenty plus minutes of irrelevant filler?

>>217730091
Both are better than most movies since Dredd was released. Just rewatched '95 dredd and was genuinely surprised by how well it was made compared to most of the garbage today. Yeah, it has lots of stupid shit, like the obnoxious sidekick that seemed mandatory in films at the time, but it's still a pretty good movie.
>>
>>217740092
There is. I was ordering a different Dredd comic when I got this one sent to me by accident. Turns out it was pretty rare so I kept it. Filled with the short newspaper comics and more often than not they are pretty funny.
>>
>>217741566
It's a crying shame that we've never had a truly good Judge Dredd game
>>
>>
>>217729987
no

the atmosphere of the movies is different
and frankly, Stallone's is more fun
>>
Absolutely. Stallone is just playing Stallone in 95.
>>
>>217744311
Maybe we can ask the guys who did Robocop Rogue City to make one
>>
>>217744613
it's at its least fun when the character inside that unit is on screen
>>
>>217745633
Why? That game was pure shovelware garbage.
>>
>>217745666
Schneider is literally the only annoying part of the whole movie,
but you already knew that
>>
>>217745672
Nah, you didn't even play it. It was not only awesome, but completely faithful to the source material and dedicated to giving fans the best feeling of being the movie possible. If they made a Judge Dredd game, it would be like you were inside the comics and completely faithful. It's everything you could ask for. But you'd still whine so whatever.
>>
>>217729967
One of the best films in the last 20 years, stacked cast.
>>
>>217733677
I second this.
>>
>>217745845
Judge Dredd is the only movie I find him bearable.
>>
>>217729967
Dredd has got to be the most overrated movie of it's generation. There really isn't much to it and even the production quality is barely above television movie tier.

The Stallone one is worse though because it's not even a Dredd movie. It's just another Stallone movie where he plays himself.

Sort of. I like Dredd a lot when it came out like a decade ago but I tried rewatching it recently and it's too over stylized so I turned it off. 90s judge Dredd isn't bad but it's typical 90s fare...and gets completely mogged by demolition man

Shut the fuck up you fat consumeristic goyslop gurgling faggots. Your mentality is what gets us Gladitator 2, Indiana Jones sequels and 30+ marvel films.
Do you want a sequel to In Bruges with the same characters for more whacky hijinks? How about Gosling reprising his role for 'Drive 2: Driven to the Edge' or a legacy sequel to The Thing where old Kurt Russel is somehow still alive and now he has to fight the alien again to escape Antsrtica and save the world?

I fucking hate you faggots with a burning passion. Be happy with the story you have. Rewatch it, bisect it, talk about it to your friends or on /tv/. Hell, watch 5 hour video essays about it, just enjoy what you have and stop begging studios to shit out unnecessary projects because you're such a hording, consuming child too afraid to let go of the past.

>>217730091
Lena was pretty fucking awesome in that film. Loved that shit.

Karl Urban was the best just for keeping his fucking helmet on, and his performance with the lower half of his face shits on other faggot actors playing helmet characters with it off.

Loved the corrupt judges. People forget a lot of the details like that which were pretty fucking epic, even though the scale of the film seems small at the end of the day.

I judge this movie: Kino.

Stallone movie is THE guilty pleasure film for a lot of people I'm sure. I don't mind it despite the faggot actor helmet-off shit, and so-fucking-help-me I even liked Rob Schneider, actually made me laugh. Movie might have pissed off the Dredd purists, (and I certainly sympathise), but it was otherwise a lot of fun in and of itself. Demonlition Man similarities and tone are impossible to ignore, and benefits from it.
>>
>>217750599
Not totally wrong in most cases, but the real problem is writers who can't write a decent sequel.

'Terminator 2', 'Aliens' and original Star Wars trilogy are proof positive it can be done, and the world is better off for it. Even original Indiana Jones trilogy was beloved, and kinda blunts your own point to cite that franchise, but they fucked up after 'The Last Crusade'.

The point is, we'd miss out on some prime kino if no sequels were ever made, and the MCU was designed to be a franchise and it more or less worked until it got woke'd to death.

Just think of how a Japfags make manga to have an ending like 'Death Note'. That's more what you want, and some people would argue that went to shit after L died and fuck that faggot Near. Same problem despite the fact Near isn't officially some kind of 'sequel' creation to capitalise after the death of L.

If you can't imagine a good sequel to any film, (and not all movies need one), then you're a fucking retard who probably writes for Hollywood in the CURRENT YEAR.

Another example is 'Back to the Future'. Did it need a sequel? Nope. Were the sequels well-written extensions to the original story and well-produced, (whether you liked them or not). Hell yes. They quit while they were ahead and that was probably the right decision, but the sequels were audience pleasers and money makers, and there's nothing wrong with that.

I actually like writing sequel ideas for films, because I have enough imagination to connect all the dots with the original and stick to the in-universe rules and vision. It's fun trying to come up with something that truly works like completing a puzzle. Most writers seem too mentally lazy to do that, or want to insert their own agenda.
>>
I really loathe the Stallone Judge Dredd defenders. They're unserious people.
>>
>>217750599
This, I hate sequels
>>
>>217751832
I can't help liking it. I know it's ridiculous shit, and technically speaking you're right, I can't 'defend' it per se, but I can still enjoy it without that being my fault.

>>217751822
Exceptions existing are of no concern to the rule.

>>217745845

>>217751953
Well if you let a bunch of feminist retards write your space opera, you get what you FUCKING DESERVE!! More to the point you get what you expect.

Not being artistically retarded I honestly can't fathom how these fucktards can't find an appropriate writer with a decent sequel concept and script. Any audience fag who is a fan of the original film could tell you in a microsecond if a concept is good, even if they couldn't come up with it themselves.
>>
>>217751962
The saddest part of Stalone taking his helmet off is that everyone already knows who he fucking is, and he looked fine as the 'fun Dredd' with it on.

I bet if you AI'd the helmet on him the whole film, at best it would be an improvement, and at worst nobody would notice.

The Robocop game was amazing. I didn't expect to be so immersed doing basic policework. I thought it was going to be a shooting gallery. My favorite part was stomping around at night writing tickets for littering.
>>
>>217752128
Terminator Resistance was also spot on
>>
>>217729967
I love that this film is proof executing an existing idea well is better than being original. It rips off the Raid and is just as good. Would love Marvel and/or DC to take this philosophy and rip off JJKs Shibuya Incident for a feature length film
>>
>>217742352
More importantly, where in the 1995 Judge Dredd is this amazing city exploration that anon thinks the 2012 film lacks? Stalline doesn't go anywhere interesting
>>
One is judge dredd without helmet, the other is regular police action movie based on The Raid (a better movie).
Frankly, the second movie has nothing to do at all with Dredd other than the helmet. Might as well go watch The raid.

>>217740092
yeah it's called the Daily Dredds, has two volumes you can get it from Rebellion's webstore

>>
>>217729967
Both are very good
>>
>>217729967
Looking back, I'm going to say no. Its a good movie, I enjoy it, but the 95 one for all its flaws felt more "Judge Dredd" than this did.
>Stallone removing his helmet
In no way am I saying that is acceptable or right, and I do respect Karl Urban for keeping it on.
That still isn't enough to budge me on this. I enjoy the 95 movie more.
>>
>>217755481
Stallone movie had the Kino robot and the "LAAAW" meme.
>>
>>217730091
If only they put more of the marketing budget into India
>>
>>217753694
Problem is that Dredd is the Raid but better, and it doesn't have a bunch of Mohammedan yellow people kicking each other
>>
>>217755481
Then again: The modern Dredd had Karl Urban and the Kino Death scene. So it's a toss up.
>>
>>217755049
neither of them are good, in the '95 film you see the futuristic cityscape for 2 seconds and the rest of the movie could just be any American city

>>217729967
Isn't this movie just a ripoff of the raid?

I know the dredd comics are old, but is there a comci specifically about this movie's plot?
>>
>>217755987
The Raid ripped off Dredd, they used the leaked Dredd script to make The Raid. But it doesn't really matter since both are ripoffs of Die Hard

No because Stallone's version was fun. This rebooted one didn't even have flying motorcycles.
>>
>>217758329
2012 Dredd was made on less than half the budget (1/3 counting inflation). The 95 version had some good ideas but its budget went mostly into Stallone's gigantic ego, half of it ended up on the cutting room floor to hit a PG-13 rating, and the rest was squandered by a weak director with no spine that couldn't rein anyone into actually caring about Dredd beyond the set dressing.

>>217729967
It's a better movie but it was made in the brown-and-gray tacticool era when comic book movies were embarrassed to be a comic book. 1995 is a better Judge Dredd movie

There's a major problem when a movie based on a futuristic high tech dystopia looks no different than a present day poverty stricken thirdie slum like The Raid. Dredd 3d just went too far with late 2000s/pre-2012 no fun allowed gritty realism

That guy isn't Dredd, he has no pauldrons. Hes not a street judge.

>>217758758
The guy who made The Raid had been working on Dredd in the UK before zipping off to SE Asia to chonk out that piece of pencak silat ass before Dredd had finished post-production..

Karl Urban was a fan of the comics and only agreed to do the movie if he never took off the helmet.

Nah, this is one of the few instances of film makers changing a costume and making it work. Turning his outfit into an armoured biker's jacket/bodyarmour combo that looks both practical and harkens solidly back to the comics is amazing.

He could probably have worked, it wouldn't be as comedical with the comics, with Death hanging out with an old woman Mrs. Gunderson or smth like that, but it could work with him being a demon ghost that is causing mass death, akin to a slasher villain

The Stallone one was much better, if you like the comics. The only issue is the helmet being taken off, maybe Anonymous Indians will fix this someday.

Just go for the essential collections, you can of course go for the case files which collect ever dredd story since his creation, but the first two are rather janky and you can tell the creators haven't found their footing yet.
The essentials just collect the important Dredd stories as to where to start from those, go for Apocalypse War.
Best of 2000AD is also not a bad place to start if you're interested in reading other stuff from the progs, and that includes several Dredd strips in it as well
>>
>>217763860
Thanks! I did a lot of digging myself and I'm astonished the amount of comics centered around this guy. I'll begin with the case files and see if the earlier Volumes are for my liking.

that movie and the dredd pinball table (which you can probably get on a discount because it was made by a canada certified pedo <3) are better than 100% of non-comicbook dredd and probably better than 80% of comicbook dredd too
>>
>>217729967
Its the same as comparing Tim Burtons Batman to the Dark Knight. The later is always more dark and "down to earth" where the previous is more "cartoonish". Since the originals were the first movies to properly portray such universes they always deserve a special spot in out memories but they arent necessarily better.

>The Stallone Dredd movie had a much better interpretation of Mega City 1 (as opposed to Dredd's, which just looked like modern day Mexico City with a few skyscraper sized habs)
nigga in stallone dredd you had like a total of 15 minutes of 100% mega city 1 while in the urban dredd you had 120 minutes of 80% a mega city 100% compatible with dredd comic books
i get what you're saying but even then you got more avenues of imagining stuff from the minutes before arriving to the block tower in urban dredd than the entire cityslop in stallone dredd
instead of being a faggot about not wearing a mask, stallone should have enforced more fidelity to the comic books or at least better fashion... instead he chose to play himself, a double-faggot coke-fiend who has been a has-been since rambo 3

Absolutely not. The 95 movie captures the goofy humor of the comic. But to be honest the best Judge Dredd movie is Robocop.
>>
>>217741518
I like this kind of movie better and wish there was more of it, the problem with a 2 hour format is that if you devote a lot of it to lore and world expo you run out of time for the actual movie, that kind of thing is more suited to a mini-series format (if it gets good financing and promo)
>>
Got this weird feeling the people putting the 95 Stallone Dredd over the 2012 kino are the same kind of dorks who think the prequels are the best Star Wars movies. Their arguments just sound the same.

No. Anyone the says otherwise is some britbong crying about nothing. The world building, costume and sets in the Stallone movie were all fucking amazing. It looked like a comic book and was infinitely quotable kino. The Karl Urban movie was just a slightly sci fi themed rip off of The Raid with some admittedly cool scenes thrown in.

>>217771991
"It's common knowledge". Naw literally nobody ever heard of any made up bullshit about a leaked dredd script. It's not even a first page Google search result. The Raid was pure martial arts kino and came out first. Dredd was a mid action film in the same setting the had some cool and original drug effect sequences but was overall generic low budget nothingness.
>>
>>217772090
It's a fact that the Dredd script was already finished BEFORE they even begun writing The Raid. Also when you make the claim that Dredd is a ripoff of The Raid it shows how ignorant you are since both are ripoffs of Die Hard. NEITHER film is original.
>>

>no one had ever come up with the idea of one man trapped in a building filled with bad guys until The Raid created it

>>217771929
Whats wrong with Americans
>>
>>217772171
Dredd is objectively the worse movie, pretending anything else is pure contrarianism or the sign of bad tastes, maybe an American who can't read the subtitles fast enough. Dredd has middle-of-the-road action and the suspense is basically non-existant so it totally fails on its premise of having one or two characters being trapped inside a high rise apartment complex full of dangerous criminals hunting them down for a bounty. The Raid has top-tier action choreography and intense edge-of-your-seat suspense and fully delivers on its premise literally one of the GOAT action movies, a modern Die Hard.

>>217772208
Literally all you can do is jump on The Raid comparisons because you can't defend Dredd. It's a mid unmemorable barely sci fi film with the hot blonde and trippy drug effects being the only stand outs. On the other hand Judge Dredd is pure kino that everyone remembers and can almost quote the entire script.

>Your mentality is what gets us Gladitator 2
The difference is nobody fucked asked for a Gladiator sequel and nothing about the story lends itself to continuing in that setting with those characters; as evidenced by the fact that the best they could come up with was "the little faggot kid grows up to become a gladiator... for some reason." Nobody asked for a fucking Greenland sequel and nothing about a story about a family trying to survive the end of the world supports a solid "and then what happened?" jumping off point, which is why the best they could come up with was "the family survives the end of the world... again"

People ASKED for a Dredd sequel, and Dredd is naturally inclined towards sequel material; it's a bare bones premise which any number of fun stories, interesting action set pieces, and gallows humor can be built off of.
