Worryingly, I've actually heard in a couple of podcasts of instances of people totally misinterpreting the ending of Dredd - and thinking Anderson quits when she gives Dredd her badge and storms off...

JOE SOAP

I do think that it's deliberately left open.

radiator

I really don't think it is, especially as they inserted that last shot of her at the end, in full uniform, ready to go.

JOE SOAP

True but I think that shot might be confusing people.

A lot of people also think Stallone is the original Dredd.. Not twigging that it's Anderson at the end is the least of our worries..

Yeah, aren't they just leaving Peach Trees. Dredd may have passed her but she gives no response. It'll be the ball in her court.

I think they lifted that shot from the pre-assessment walk to the bikes scene, and stuck it at the end precisely because there was some confusion, so without doing any more expensive filming, they needed a shot that showed that she passed and became a judge.

It's the Hall of Justice.

You can see the gates that are outside the Hall steps.

Yeah I guess it's supposed to be peach trees, but she's carrying the helmet from what I remember and originally it's from the beginning but Dredd has been erased from the shot - presumably this was a shot that John suggested.

I can't remember that shot at the end at all, and I have seen it four times. Am I going nuts?

The Sherman Kid

Bit surprised Andersdon passing is confusing, as you see her go to work at the end, helmet in hand.

Danbo

I can't remember that either,she just stormed off,last I saw she was pushing a  medic away?
