Dredd - Box Office

[vzzbux]

I think one of the main hinderences to Dredd was the shadow of 95. Many people I have spoken to have said they didn't go to see it because they were not keen on REMAKES or The first one was shit so didn't bother.

I'll be going for my fith viewing Sherman, which I feel is just about acceptable. Will be a little emotional when it ends for the last time. My friend did consider buying a ticket or two onlne and not going just to bump it up.

Jeez how many spelling mistakes in my last post (hic  , kidding) Knew new by buy.

Anyway seen Dredd lots of times but your mate offering to buy without seeing -thats what I call a BIG fan, wow.

He didn't actually do it though. Still time Paul if you're reading this!

I wonder where the very last showing in Britain will be. I expect there will be a handful of simultaneous last showings on a  Thursday.

Without a doubt, I simply couldn't persaude some to see it because of it.

PS Vzzbux where is that quote from that you have?

KOTOR was an awesome game

There should probably be a comma in the third line. Consistency etc.

That a good handful left then. All  those places put together will hopefully be swelling the coffers. Is Germany, for example, typically a large cinema going nation?
Just looking at the dates though, and it made me think 'poor sods' at having had to wait for so long, but then i saw Japan's release date - February!!

yes its been a rather torturous wait down here in OZ, but Thursday it is finally here and i just confimed my cinema has a 3D showing 8.15pm so thats the first one for me.  I was getting worried it wasn't gonna get released in our cinema and when i rang this arvo the young girl gave me a heart attack but saying they didn't have it listed as a release this week    i went into panic mode and asked her to check when they were getting it, oh it doesn't seem to be on the list  oh wait there it is sorry it is coming out on Thursday  oh the releif, damn b*&ch that wasn't funny.
Anyway i recon its going to do pretty well in OZ for such a low population theres still alot of Dredd heads here, one of the few comics you can find on the newsagent shelves not specialist stores.

A lot of us had the same problem here in the uk mate with what cinemas were going
to show dredd, i myself only found out my local cinema was going to show it the day before
it came out so i was flappin a bit myself, but it was all worth it in the end as im sure you will
find out when you go to see it

I had Thursday booked as a day off but had to attend a conference.  Will have to wait until Friday to see this.  Just saw the Aust/NZ "Empire" magazine at the railway station with Dredd on the cover.

And to add insult to injury, i see that The Sweeney has now taken more money than Dredd, at the UK box office.
