RED LETTER MEDIA: LOOPER & DREDD

Nice to see that somebody gets the subtext in the movie and that its not just a straight forward no brain shoot-em-up.

Yep that was a point I forgot to make, I know its implied in the name Joe, yet he was always referred to in the short form no matter what the occasion happened to be, as if his first name had been an after thought when he was cloned.

Ah well, It's not a complaint, just an observation.

Could be just me but I always remember a simple Joe Dredd. The 95 movie was the first time I recall Joseph being mentioned.

Hmm... maybe it is just me.

Havent read this entire thread yet but was wondering, has the Joseph Dredd name officially  been retconned in now?

Nothing wrong with a bit of the old Ultraviolence.

The most comprehensive review of Dredd yet:

Beyond his comprehension. Quite.
A classic case of Greater Spotted Thrill Sucker activity. I prescribe a double dose of 2000ad shot straight into the bloodstream.

Otto Sump's Ugly Parlour tomorrow , today!

Well, this bunch if fucktards have really taken it there.

Yep, i think we need to chalk this one up to experience...

They got the tone of this Film right, sometimes good films do not strike a cord with main stream audiences.

They made the right choices on Dredd 3D but people are sometimes slow to catch on.

Wait - so because you disagree with me, I'm "slow to catch on"?

I am referring to the mass audience, In the same way Shawshank was ignored when it was released but gained popularity on video.

Dredd is not all about the chin as I've seen some of the misguided out there on the internet say.

If he was, then why not just cast this guy?

I think the tone of the new film could have benefitted from some of the more outlandish or over-the-top elements of the Stallone film...

I agree

Have you seen the Stallone version recently?....

They got the tone of this Film right, sometimes good films do not strike a cord with main stream audiences.
One of my favourite films of recent times is Beyond The Black Rainbow which has a very 80's retro feel and definitley does not appeal to the masses. Whereas something like Glee: The 3D concert Movie can make  $28 million at the box office.

They made the right choices on Dredd 3D but people are sometimes slow to catch on. To take it back to the '95 film would not have been the right way to go, to me the MC1 we see in the first 15 minute of this film encompasses a lot of what we see in the comics, and is still just a tiny section of the entire city. I'm still holding out hope that we'll see more Dredd in some form from this production team.

Another positive review from a genre movie junkie.
