That's nothing like how I imagine that line being delivered.  It's way too slow, lacking the urgency and immediacy it needs.  The punch should be part of it, not after it.

I'm reminded of that famous philospher Eddie Catflap discussing playing Shakespeare, in an episode of Filthy Rich & Catflap:  'On the one hand I'm the fiery and warlike Tybalt, and on the other it's all "stand there while I do my speech"!'

I'm hoping the rest of the scene gives it some context.  If Fear has just said "Gaze into the face of Fear" with the same intonation, so that Dredd's rejoinder imitates the way Fear says it as well as what he said, then it may just work.  But I still feel having the grunt/punch afterwards, instead of being the tail end of the sentence (what he's doing as he speaks) makes it come across as more theatrical than actiony.

Not that you should judge(!) a scene or production based on such a short clip, but of course my pre-cogs have an accuracy rate of... hang on, is this graph upside down?

having listened to a couple of these i do not think they worked. Too faithful to source. It is being adapted into another medium so needs changes or hard to follow.

What I think the Big Finish Dredds did so well. Although it did take a while to get into the swing of things.

I listened to a clip of this on the 2000AD Facebook page. It seemed to go down well with most people, but all I could think of was the narrator from Count Duckula. Goodnight out there...whatever you are!

KEITH ALLEN is Torquemada but very badly IMO

It seems an obvious choice with a suitable manical over the top quality to Allen... and yet somehow how there it seemed off?

I'm wondering if it wouldn't work better the other way round - Allen as Nemesis and Warner as Torquemada.
