After the fiasco that was the Stallone movie here’s some pix from the new movie. Looks good!

Let's hope Karl Urban keeps the helmet on for the majority of the movie.

After I stopped laughing at the massive helmets and the upside down smile on Dredds face, I honestly have to to say based on the costume design alone, it looks laughable.

More so than Stallones attempt.

I am the law!!!! Schneider made the orignal Judge Dredd movie though!

:nono: He was one of the horrendous things about that movie!!

Dredd's uniform is iconic, but in real terms not the most practical! It seems like they are aiming to replicate the original design from when Dredd first appeared.

The new movie pics certainly lend themselves to the idea that this may be a far grittier version than the 1995 film.

Looking at the first pic he truly is giving Dark Helmet from Space Balls a run for his money in the gigantic helmet department

I realise Joseph was never the happiest of souls, but giving him a scowl like that is comedic. Stallone's judge helmet looked good, Id say more faithful to the original, the law master was sweet and the law giver pretty realistic (Within reason).

But the new helmet looks...horrendous and the gun like a prop from a bad 50s sci fi movie. The jacket look like something from a mad max motorcycle gang.

Visually the Stallone movie was pretty accurate not, only in its depiction of Mega City but also Dredd's attire. However the helmet is the one thing that is more accurate in the images seen to date of the new movie.

i always loved judge dredd when i used to read comics...hopefully this won't be the debacle that was dredds last big screen escapade...of course to have proper levels of violence nc-17 will be necessary so there's that immediate issue

god damn it! Why can't hollywood make new shit? And why the fuck are there like 3 superhero movies per year coming out? Nevermind the fact that most of those are even remakes. Seems we're headed into an era with no quality movies being released, and no end in sight.

Oh man that magazine cover is laughable. I never would have thought the day would come when I thought Stallones Dredd was good. This new version is just laughable.

Lena Headey looks hot even with those scars though.

I agree the cover pic is bad. However the onset pics look better. Toning the costume down a bit from the comic will hopefully make him look less like a superhero & more like the fascist future cop he is. One of the problems with the Stallone movie was that they tried to turn him into a superhero. Dredd is not a superhero.

I'm not holding my breath tbh ...

Maybe because they never did? Agree with you though. And whats with the obsession of shortening words and acronyms? I had to read the thread to make sure it was actually referring to Judge Dredd. When they portray another "version" of Judge Dredd twenty years from now (which they undoubtedly will) it'll probably be called JD or something...
