Why Judge Dredd is an underrated gem..

I love TBS because they play great classics. TNT too.

 

I do like the film, but it is very hit and miss. It had some great moments, but was seriously lacking in many many points:
Exploding lawgiver
Psi Division and Anderson
Fink Angel
Titan Prison
etc.

I Never Read Judge Dredd, Apart From A Batman Crossover.
The Movie Wasn't Bad, Imo, Just Not Very Compelling.

 

I saw this piece of garbage in theaters. God, what a waste. I didn't mind Stallone as Dredd, but the story was just played out.

 

I've only read th' Bats cross-over too, but I liked th' movie. Wasn't perfect but I enjoy it and that's all that matters.

 

Which One Did You Read? I Read One Called The Ultimate Riddle.

 

I didn't mind Judge Dredd taking off his helmet, I didn't mind the comic relief with Deuce Bigelow(can't think of his name right now)

but dammit they should've had the Dark Judges it it


this movie, along with the Spawn movie had sooo much potential, but they let idiots make the movie and fook it all up

 

It's one of my favorite bad movies.

 

I read the Batman crossover too, I still have 2 of them

The movie was ok, just another forgettable action flick.

 

You're joking.

Judge Dredd is NOT SUPPOSED TO HAVE ANY CHARACTER. He's the physical embodiment of a facist state. he doesn't take his mask off because he doesn't have an identity. Judge Dredd comics are all satirical, they are not supposed to be taken at face value.

 

If Judge Dredd eschews what it's all about - which is what the movie does - it's no longer Judge Dredd.

It's like saying, "I'm sick of Superman being a positive, heroic character, let's take all that out."

 

My friends and I all enjoyed watching JD in jr. high along with a barrage of other 90s-friendly action movies! I hated it at first, but it really grew on me and i'm a fan... but they did try to humanize him, and you know what, it's not like they're making any more JD movies so I'll just enjoy this single movie for its nostalgia value from my adolescent days

 

I can only hope that you are joking with these threads Horrorfan, because, if not, you may very well have the single worst understanding of cinema of anyone who has ever graced these boards.

 

Even though those "poor writers" created a character that has been around for almost 30 years, and is one of Britain's best known comic characters.

Main Writers: John Wagner, Alan Grant, Pat Mills, Garth Ennis

Main Artists: Carlos Ezquerra, Mike McMahon, Brian Bolland, Ron Smith, Ian Gibson, Steve Dillon, Cam Kennedy, John Burns, John Higgins, Cliff Robinson, Colin MacNeil, Kevin Walker, Will Simpson, Peter Doherty.. and many more.

Other writers, (mostly for stories between May 1993 and July 1995, when Grath Ennis left and John Wagner was not back regularily ) => Dan Abnett, John Higgins, Peter Hogan, Alan McKenzie (under pen-name of "Sonny Steelgrave"), Mark Millar, Grant Morrison, John Smith, Chris Standley.

Use google to find out about the writers. Yes, some may not be big names, but then how many writers in the world are Moore, Gaiman, Morrison, Loeb, or JMS?

 

I am not a fanboy - check out some of my posts. BTW, yes, since I said you have no understandig of cinema, you don't.

 

It is clear that Horrorfan does not have much knowldge of movies, comics or anything else for that matter.

 

Then log off here, create a character and send it to a comic book publisher since it's so easy.

If not, shut the hell up.

 

Since when does superherohype.com publish comics?
