FIRST LAWMASTER PIC FROM DREDD!

[HdE]

Pardon me for saying, but... do we even know if that's a pic of the FINISHED Lawmaster?

Looks to me like there's space for a little extra dressing, especially on the front end.

I was hoping for something more like this.

Ya, and I'm sure if you donate several of them bikes to the film, they will be more then happy to use them in it.

[danno]

Unfortunately I don't own several of them? If I did I would.

Exactly.

Anyone suggesting that a 45 million budget [and possibly more on top of that] is not enough for a decent looking bike is having a laugh and the same goes for the vans that were pictured previously.

How much would that bike in the pic cost ?

20,000 ?

50,000 ?

I wouldnt have thought it would cost more than that but lets say 100,000 just to be safe so thats 100,000 out of a budget of 45 million with another say 25,000 worth of customisation or say 50,000 to be safe.

It would cost a lot less to lease a bike like that and insure it and if it is harmed during the filming then the insurance would pay for it anyway so whats the problem ?

My figures may be wrong but my point is that we are not expecting the filmmakers to build anything from scratch which they are not doing anyway but we are talking about a motorbike that has to look good as its an essential addition to the character and i really do not see why this should be so difficult.

someone will point out the obvious and say its a sneaky pic of a bike that may be unfinished and is out of context or blurred or whatever but dont bother as i know this already as i am looking at it and thats what i am commenting on.

I have been presented with a picture and i am commenting on the picture specifically NOT the film in general.Only the vehicles.

The only way to stop the negative criticism is to get things right from the outset and the only way to stop pics like that getting out is to have a security perimeter around the vicinity where all cameras and mobiles are confiscated.

One final thing is does anyone have figure on how much the filming in 3d [which i think is utterly pointless anyway in this instance] is costing ?

How much of the budget is it eating up ?

The bike in the leaked photo could just be used for stunt work or tracking shots for later CGI work, we just don't know.

I'm going to wait for at the very least a trailer before I pass judgement.

Leaked shots are no indication of the finally quality of the finished film either, the script and performances are a huge contributing factor to the films overall success.
I'm still optomistic that Pete Travis and the rest of the Dredd film team can deliver the goods.

As Michaelvk said earlier, all props are finished apart from any post-prod.

Fair enough. But it still doesn't equate to how good the finished film will be. That's my point really.
There's obviously a lot of work to do yet.

How will it not be done?

[HdE]

Let's remember as well that there's a whole art to the way things are shot. Lighting, camera angles, editing, all that good stuff.

And a static image only accounts for part of the final effect. We can see the shaoe of the thing, and the base colours, but we don't get much impression of what it'll look like zipping around in MC-1.

Basically, until I see it moving, I'm reserving judgement. BRING ON THA MOVIEEEEE!

[IAMTHESYSTEM]

I think we're getting scraps of info here. It's like the blind man trying to gage the shape of an elephant just from feeling it's trunk. The Helmet/Body armour I'm fine with. What I've seen of the the Bike/Cars I'm not so keen on.

Until we get near the Films release it will always be bits and pieces. Franctically deconstructing every crumb that comes our way probably isn't going to help anyones nerves but wait till the first trailer comes out at least before passing- ahem, judgement.

When they release that Anderson picture some of you are so obsessed with I expect the forum too melt!

[HdE]

Oh - has there been some sort of demand for an Anderson pic? I had no idea...

[TordelBack]

... just from feeling it's trunk.

Oh there'll be plenty of that when the Anderson picture finally appears.
