    The only Judge Dredd movie I recognize is the one with Karl Urban, which was sadly under-advertised and didn’t make the money it should have…

      I’ll fight for the Stallone version any time.

      Urban’s version was unironic, and Dredd is always meant to be done ironically.

        The Urban version is damn near a complete ripoff of The Raid, which is a better movie. It’s a fun watch and Heady gives a great performance, but that’s about it.

          It’s way underrated, but watch Dick Tracey with Warren Beatty and Madonna. She gives the best performance of her career and the movie makers used a lot of great tricks to make it look like an old time cartoon come to life. For instance, in the old ‘four color’ process, there was exactly one shade of yellow, one of green etc. No variation. If you look ,you’ll see that they did the same thing in the movie.

          Not a ripoff but a fucking coincidence. The movie that premiered first started recording second.
