Dredd DVD sales looking strong

Link! Does this mean they will make a sequel? They nailed the character and the universe perfectly in this film. Karl Urban was perfect (Oscar snub?).

lol That article said TDKR was family friendly. 

As for the topic, good for Dredd. I still haven't seen it yet. Waiting for my netflix rental when the time comes.

I just watched it tonight. Really surprised by how much I enjoyed it. Disappointed I didn't give it a chance in the theater, now. :P raven_squad

That's 5 years in the cubes CREEP!

I thought it was a great movie. A thousand times better than the Stallone version.

Hopefully they do make a sequel.

Decent enough film, but the likelyhood of a sequel is slim to none, regardless of how well the DVD does.

What do you think, could the group of people you currently enforce the law with handle crime in this type of dystopia?

Yusuke420

Fvck no. I'd rather die than have to deal with that type of dystopia.

Which part specifically? Being a merciless judge, dealing in the same violence and death you are fighting against? Or in gigantic super structures housing people after a radical crisis?

Well, I won't lie and say enforcing my type of justice isn't enticing, but I don't think I could do it like the Judges do. So both. I don't think it's possible to police such an expanse effectively. Which is why the idea of a "sprawl" both intrigues and scares me. Like just imagine LA, NYC and Chicago all rolled into one. It doesn't sound pretty.

< If you look at it's total gross though it is closer to 37 million dollars. A 13 million dollar gap to break even is pretty doable and sequels have been made on movied that have gone in the negative before. Dredd deserves another chance with better marketing. Yusuke420

If a fanbase can raise enough hell to get Family Guy uncancelled, surely this can be done with really strong dvd sales. Yusuke420

Thank god too, movie deserves it, it's awesome.

I rented the Blu Ray from Redbox, and lost it in my car for 10 cars after watching. Probably would have been cheaper to just buy it. Anyways, it was easily the best super hero movie of 2012. I regret not seeing it in 3D, the movie had some gorgeous visuals and interesting camera-work.KHAndAnime

Hope they make a sequel, i really enjoyed it.

i will get the blu ray next month.

Did that slow mo effect mess with anyone else? I mean if there was a dryg that effected time like that, well lets just say it would drive A LOT of other drugs out of business. It was one of the trippiest things to see everything at 1% speed.

Great news!!!

Here hoping we get a sequel :D

Yes. I just bought the 3D Blu Ray. Awesome action movie. It reminded me of the good old days when John Carpenter was making action movies like Assault on Precinct 13.

Holy **** I agree with Airshocker on something! O_O

Movie was pretty awesome and I know without having seen the old version that this movie was MUCH better than the Stallone version. I don't think I have actually hear anyone say they preffered the Stallone version....

IF this movie gets a sequel, I am seeing it in theaters next time! Couldn't get anyone to go see it with me in the theater, but made my GF watch the DVD with me at home....

Movie was sick!.Glad to see it going strong.

The film was very well made. Good characterization and awesome visuals. However, it didn't seem up to the standard of a typical Hollywood blockbuster, which is why I think it failed. It looked and felt like a straight-to-DVD movie, and its story was very, very simple. I think that's why it failed. Also, I'm surprised its budget was more than $5,000,000; it looked like a low-budget film.

Dredd was much more faithful to the comic than the Stallone version.

 if being a 'typical Hollywood blockbusterl' means spunking every frame with pointless CGI, then fvck Hollywood

Dredd is an action film, 

one of the best of the last year, it had grit, used proper sets insted of green screening everything. 

It was in your face in a way that I forgot western films could be.

The electro song from the slo-mo shootout scene, if anyone cares.

I've just ordered this on Bluray so i hope i enjoy it.

Didn't like how it was based entirely around one prolonged incident. Other than that it's a great action flick. Don't see the point of a sequel though. Given how the whole thing felt like just an excuse to blow stuff up.

Who thinks Ellen Page would have portrayed Olivia Thirlby's character better, or would have simply been more entertaining?
