Meh. The intrawebz gives a voice to every ignorant eejit on the planet, ignore it.

If Dredd bombs then Joe Public are complete morons (But we already know that).
At least we know that we now have a Dredd film to be proud of.

True enough. A sequel or two would be nice though...

Aye - all true, you could so easily lose the will to live wading through all those tiresome comments and 'opinions'.
Numbskulls, the lot of 'em.

Just got back, loved it! Very hard boiled movie had a bit of an oldschool feel to it, also a bit of Carpenter maybe, just badass stuff. And of course, very true to the voice of Dredd in the book. Plus Anderson was done wonderfully. Nonscrot friends liked it too.

Good idea!  One of my friends is desperate to see the film but as he has some problem with his eyes which means he can't see images in 3D, there's no point in him going.  Unless 2D starts getting shown he'll have to wait for the BluRay (which he hopes will be out in time for Xmas).

From what I've heard, that's just doest look likely to happen. Odeon told me there are hardly any 2D prints, and they couldn't secure any, and Vue said it wasn't going to show the 2D release. I imagine once the 3D film's had its run, the usual thing will happen: it'll be dropped from smaller cinemas and shoved to one or two late(isn) showings per day in larger ones—assuming the screens aren't needed for something else.

It's already moved to the small room at Odeon Cardiff..

I got moved from the larget screen in Salisbury Odeon to the smallest within a week of release. But then Salisbury is always a quiet place for films, rarely see any screen over half full.

Another trailer for Dredd3d - not a good one either.

His name makes him sound more like a pornstar!

CYCLOPZ

Its an interesting fact that had Duncan Jones got to make his version of Dredd as a kind of Man Bites Dog set in Mega City 1, we might have ended up with a futuristic version of End Of Watch which also opened in the States on Friday.

Then everyone would have been saying they ripped that film off .

That sounds like it would have been really weird.
