Did you guys like the way the Dredd movie depicted Mega City One?

[JayzusB.Christ]

It also reminded me a lot of Beijing, a city I lived in for three months and really didn't like. I could empathise with the movie Mega-citizens a bit more (though they had to deal with lots of crime on top of the grey and overcrowded mess).

Kinda reminded me of Hong Kong for the same reason. Although Hong Kong is a lot more cosmopolitan. A bit more colourful aswell. But the high rise buildings, the humidity - all very similair.

Didn't quite get that vibe off HK, I must say. For me, it was a bit more like the comic MC1, what with its inter-block tunnels, mad lit-up buildings and general oddness.  Not as much as Kuala Lumpur though; which was somewhere between MC1 and Frank Miller's Gotham City.  (Young, good Frank, that is, not present-day, bad Frank.)
