Dredd (2012)

Tom Cruise's latest features him wearing a fitted leather jacket with a nehru collar, goretex inserts, and panels of body armour - including a right shoulder pad bearing the insignia of the organisation to which he belongs. Which seems familiar:

Happened to bump into him the other day; he wasn't wearing his JIMP suit.

Finally got around to watching the DVD. I really do enjoy this movie. The director did a great job. In every scene, you know exactly who is where, who's in the line of fire, and who is safe in cover. For all the chaos in some of the scenes, it's never confusing.

No edit button: The fact that I said I enjoyed that aspect of the movie is a huge indictment of the modern action movie.

You know,nthats a really good point. Wherever Dredd or Anderson aim, that's where the bullet hits. How many action films have we seen where the shots fired from the gun don't seem to accurately represent where they're actually going to hit? Commando is a perfect example - Arnie aims horizontally, yet all the bad guys on a roof mysteriously die..

So Cruise'll be Orlok in the sequel.

Yep but Urban looks coolest in it.

Def, many brilliant moments in the film.

Even this moment when Anderson is the Anderson as we knew!

Wow. She looks like a young Jodie Foster there!

Make it happen!

Is there a Judge Dredd film coming out?

Yep it was in 1995!

I can't believe that we've achieved 684 - yes SIX HUNDRED AND EIGHTY FOUR - pages on this thread.

Or that if I hadn't been bypassing it back then to avoid then I could've been immortalised in graffiti in the movie.

Not bitter
