Another thing I wonder, is if they are seeing everyone in 1% of normal speed, cannot they not use this to move faster?

Like when Dredd is shooting them in the trailer, they should be able to see the bullet moving really slowly and move out the way in time?
Perception may be greater but would your reaction be? The rounds are still going to move faster than you.

What James said - in fact it would likely give you a false sense of security, you'd think you could easily dodge them but getting your body to act quickly enough is another matter.

Ah yes, that makes sense.

I wonder what hearing someone speak on slo-mo would be like?

Similar to the discussion about being thrown out of a window on it, you're probably going to have a while of knowing full well you're going to be shot and not being able to do anything about it. Longer perception of pain as the rounds pass through you too.

It's heartening to see that this filthy drug will not be tolerated by our current lawmakers...

That sure looks like one mean scary Cursed Earth around it...
Probably wouldn't survive 30 mins in those mutie shanty-towns!

Probably the same as sitting through Twilight dialogue...
You have never felt pain until you've trodden barefoot on an upturned lego brick..

It's not a deep or philosophical observation, but this film features fucking. I assume that's one of the sensations most commonly prolonged by users, as a means of escape from the horror of their daily lives.

I suppose it would all depend on where you land first. Legs would be very slow and painful, face first would be instant.

Odd response, but I think I see your point, ELIMINATOR.

You should try some Preparation H on those, strontium71.

In a couple of millenia, someone very like you will base their graduate thesis on some pretty wild and inaccurate speculation concerning the spiritual and cultural significance of that 'henge', Tordelback.
