I loved that with only a few exceptions, everything went back *into* the screen rather than out at you. It does a lot to give the scene a feeling of depth and seem that much more real.<br /><br />I just wish all directors would refuse to add 3d unless it had a reason to be there, but they all seem too eager to slap it on there and hike up the ticket price.<br /><br />Oh, and I don't think it was reined in all that much from the comic version of Mega City One. The characters were all realistic, toned-down versions of the comic characters. And this doesn't like a version of Dredd where you'd find the ABC Warriors or the Dark Judges, but it seemed a pretty accurate version of the city itself. I can easily image that as a place where an all out Block War could break out.<br /><br />I really hope it gets a sequel, though I just stumbled across a quote from Garland where he said that if he gets the trilogy he hopes for, he will actually do the Dark Judges. He might do them well, but I hope that he stays more down to earth and grounded in reality than ghosts from an alternate Earth possessing a corpse and dispensing judgement on all guilty of the crime of living. That seems a little too over the top for the movie, and I don't want to see it go the way the Stallone movie went. :)Jp Corkeryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06034797765147254763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27393963.post-29678231501770187792012-09-23T12:57:23.803-07:002012-09-23T12:57:23.803-07:00@ Dan O.: Thanks!@ Dan O.: Thanks!Denishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11948616346975182373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27393963.post-37491050069137661952012-09-23T12:49:43.655-07:002012-09-23T12:49:43.655-07:00Urban obviously loves this character and does a ni...Urban obviously loves this character and does a nice job at portraying Dredd as nothing more than one sadistic, SOB.
