Dredd (2012)

[JOE SOAP]

Couldn't those shots have been day-for-night, Soap?

FX boy was only showing off the work he did; a different CGI wonk could have been charged with making everything blue- the odd cinematic shorthand for dead of night.

Can't see it, 'specially as the Lawmaster's or van's head-lights weren't tunred on.

Never mind. I know what you're talking about now. Brainfart. Sorry.

Did I miss this...? You got a link Joe...?

You've probably seen it Mick:

The blue-van scene:

As long as there's a scene exactly like this I'll be happy:

That movie was a major reference in the art department.. As was this:

You have seen its true face.

And yet, it's STILL better than the bikes from Galactica: 1980...

I doubt they have as much of a problem with inter-block wars in the film version...

Now THIS is a very good point, it would appear the residential blocks, owing to their vastness of volume, are quite distant apart, judging by that released shot (which is a thing of beauty and nowt wrong with any of it, IMHO, and that includes the paddy wagons), meaning full-scale Block Wars may not be on the cards for Dredd sequels, although they may get closer and more dense in vicinity to each other if the producers get a bigger budget for potential further films... just as long as they stay out of the Cursed Earth and stick to the city, I'll be happy however it looks...

You're in luck!  The new movie contains a scene just like that!  I have a high-quality clip of the scene, cut from the final movie... (originally revealed about 30 posts back, for those who are lucky enouh to have forgotten it):

Technical notes:

To make it we eschewed the usual green-screen or blue-screen, using instead the far superior chroma-key colour "mint sunrise with a shade of apple" from the new Dulux collection, shown below.

Hopefully we'll get a trailer soon

Amen! Only a few months until the movie is out, I mean I'd say it's more than about time. Release the trailer!

I think [spoiler]it has to be Peach Trees. The chase at the beginning takes place at night. Plus, Sternhammer is right near it and the script calls for daylight at the end of the movie.[/spoiler]

We know it's Peach Trees from the exterior and block entry, but, [spoiler]the released showreel footage shows the chase has been filmed in daylight and different from the script.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]The initial chase happens in the daytime, Dredd and Anderson arrive at Peach Trees in the evening, spend all night in the block and emerge in the daylight the next day.

That shot is the end of the film, showing tek Judges, forensic Judges and mop up teams entering Peach Trees as Dredd leaves.[/spoiler]
