Dredd	comment	Dredd is a 2012 action film based on the Judge Dredd comics series. Karl Urban stars as the eponymous Dredd, Olivia Thirlby as Judge Anderson, and Lena Headey as the main villain, Ma-Ma. The film was directed by Pete Travis and written by Alex Garland.In the far future, America has become an irradiated wasteland. In the ruins of what was once the United States lies Mega-City One, a vast, dystopian megapolis riddled with violence and bloodshed that stretches from Boston to Washington D.C—with the streets being plagued by criminals of all stripes. The only force of order remaining in the city is the Judges, a group of law enforcement officials belonging to the Justice Department who acts as Judge, Jury, and Executioner for any criminal unlucky enough to encounter one.The film revolves around Judge Joseph Dredd, a decorated veteran Judge, and Cassandra Anderson, a rookie Judge with a genetic mutation that gave her powerful psychic abilities. After Anderson is assigned to Dredd for her final evaluation, the two respond to a triple murder at a 200-story apartment slum named Peach Trees, where they unknowingly stumble upon the creators of the city's latest drug scourge. In response, prostitute-turned-drug lord Madeleine "Ma-Ma" Madrigal and her ruthless clan trap everyone inside, prepared to protect their empire at all costs. With no way out and the body count rising, the Judges are forced to fight their way up the tower to Ma-Ma, because There Can Be Only One Law in Mega-City One.Just another day on the job for Judge Dredd.A spin-off comic, Dredd: Underbelly, was released in September 2013; a sequel, Dredd: Uprise was released the following year, followed by another sequel, Dredd: Dust and an Anderson Spin-Off titled The Deep End in 2016. A web-animated mini-series about Judge Death dropped in 2014. Adi Shankar has been trying to get a sequel to the film made after a strong outcry from fans and supporters alike. A crowdfunding project was made in an attempt to help get the sequel off the ground, but as of March 2015, the film is most likely scrapped. As of January 2016, the sequel campaign has shifted its focus to attempting to get a Sequel Series made instead, and there are some unspecified talks with Netflix on that possibility. In May 2017, a series titled Judge Dredd: Mega-City One was confirmed to be in development.Not to be confused with the 1995 film adaptation starring Sylvester Stallone.

Dredd / int_1cc2ea8d	comment	Villain Ball: As much as Ma-Ma tries to be a competent villain, she only solves her problems with violence â€” which the doctor points out in the beginning; Her overreaction to Kay's capture by both locking down the building and attempting to kill them by tearing up half a floor with gatling guns pretty much leads to her downfall; the collateral damage to the building wrecks a lot of her hacker's connections and it lets the judges communicate with the outside, and it's such obvious overkill that Dredd figures out how important Kay really is, and has Anderson read his mind to discover that all the Slo-Mo in Mega-City One is being made in Peach Trees. She routinely abuses the Clan Techie even though, as far as we know, he is literally their only computer expert on staff; he thus gives up the code to her safe room to save his hide. She hires corrupt Judges to take out Dredd after her own men prove inadequate, but this just serves to resupply Dredd and Anderson with more ammo for the final assault on her safe room. After wounding Dredd and cornering him, corrupt Judge Lex engages in some Evil Gloating, in part due to hubris... which lasts just long enough for Dredd to be rescued by Anderson killing Lex.

Because of the sheer height of the building and the effects of the drug, from their point of view it took 15-20 minutes to make the fall. Ma-Ma recieves a similar fate when she's shot in the stomach by Dredd (which, for reference, is excruciatingly painful), dosed up on Slo-Mo, and thrown through her own 200th floor window. Complete with Plummet Perspective and a close-up in slow motion of her body smashing against the concrete.

According to Dredd there are tens of thousands of crimes in Mega-City One every single day, and the Judges only have the manpower to respond to around 6% of all that. Violent crimes are so common that rookie Judges have a 20% mortality rate, comparable to military forces directly involved in extended combat. That's not over the course of their first year, that's over the course of their first day.

Dredd / int_2470d8fd	comment	Steel Ear Drums: While an argument could be made that Dredd's helmet comes with built in ear protection, Anderson spends the whole movie with no ear protection. Averted in the opening sequence, one of the perps is firing a machine pistol while inside a van. The other perp, who is riding shotgun, covers his ears and they communicate with each other shouting, being deafened by the gunfire. The perp also can't put a single bullet into Dredd despite very short distance, too, given their crazy driving. Ma-Ma stands near three Gatling guns all firing continuously at the same time, with no ear protection. A little later, she doesn't even need to raise her voice to give commands on where to fire. None of the mooks appear to wearing any hearing protection either. During the flashback explaining how she came to power, Caleb walks up and shoots at the camera, with the gun very close to Ma-Ma's ears. No one in the film is wearing any sort of hearing protection despite the frequent use of firearms, indoors, in a building made entirely out of concrete. Anyone who's been to an indoor shooting range of similar construction will tell you, just the echoes of gunfire in such a place can cause serious ear damage.

Dredd / int_26ac510e	type	Mythology Gag
Dredd / int_26ac510e	comment	Mythology Gag: A news ticker contains the info: "Judge Palmer deploys Stumm Gas on day six of Fergee Memorial riots". Fergee was a character who had several memorials built in his honor around the city after the events in the comic story The Day The Law Died, not to mention Dredd's Plucky Comic Relief in the last film. A city block is named Sternhammer. A "Joe Soap" billboard with Joe Saturday's face on it can be seen, referencing the classic 2000 AD story "Chronocops" by Alan Moore. There's a poster for a movie called Krysler's Mark, referencing the "Judge Child" storyline. Graffiti referencing at least two stories from the comic Chopper and The Art of Kenny Who and fan film Judge Minty. One of the first perps seen wears a jacket with "Drokk", a classic Dredd not-quite-swear word, painted on the back. On one of the screens at control in the Hall of Justice it shows that Judge Hershey, a recurring character in the comics, has been assigned to the riots in the city. While cornered by two of the crooked judges, Dredd asks one of them how much he was paid to "betray the law". One of the judges who responds to Dredd's call for backup first, the two waiting outside when the Cavalry Betrayal arrives, is credited as Judge Guthrie. The other is credited as Judge Volt. One of the Judges under Lex is named Alvarez, after a minor Judge from the storyline "The Pit". That Alvarez was also corrupt, and also got gunned down by Dredd. Peach Trees is located in Sector 13. Dredd's face is never seen. The only time he is seen without the helmet is from behind, with most of his body in shadow during the Lock-and-Load Montage at the beginning. Zwirner's arrest record shows Judge Griffin as an arresting officer. The first victim in the food court is a Fattie with the trademark belliwheel seen just to the side of his body. Another Fattie can be seen at his own apartment having his snacking interrupted at the beginning of Peach Trees' anti-nuke lockdown. Also in the food court a meat wagon is removing the dead bodies for 'recycling'. In the comics bodies are 'recycled' as food. The film's poster was based on the iconic image of Dredd standing in front of the Statue of Liberty in "America".

She also believes that the two are just a pair of run-of-the-mill Judges, something that the corrupt ones that come to kill Dredd calls her out on before giving her his fee.

Dredd / int_2be271c7	comment	Hollywood Hacking: Averted for the most part by Clan Techie. Gaining control of the building involves a team of gunmen storming the operations room and monkeying with the hardware, and then Techie has to make a number of high-pressure Bavarian Fire Drill phone calls to convince other controllers in Mega City One that the sudden lockdown of the building is both authorized and warranted, because otherwise it would prompt a larger response from the Judges. A Freeze-Frame Bonus also shows him using NMap, a genuine network scanner frequently used in computer security circles. Inquisitive techies will notice that Clan Techie is probably using Linux or one of the BSD variants to hack/control the Peach Trees system.

She goes to great lengths to kill Dredd, Anderson and their prisoner... not because she's Ax-Crazy, but because if the Judges interrogate Kay and find out what her real business is, she's as good as dead anyway, so she has nothing to lose by resorting to overkill. Long as Kay doesn't spill his guts, anything that went down during Dredd and Anderson's visit could be chalked up to the Judges getting killed in the line of duty.

Even so, Peach Trees still manages to top that. It's pointed out that this is a crucial difference between this film and its predecessor; in Judge Dredd, MC1 seems more like a Shining City with a Wrong Side of the Tracks, ruled by increasingly corrupt Judges. Dredd makes it quite clear that MC1 is only better than the Polluted Wasteland that surrounds it because some places have water and electricity, with the Judges being the only thing keeping the Cursed Earth from reclaiming it. The state of things is beautifully summed up early in this exchange between Dredd and the Chief Justice:

Later, four Judges show up and demand that the doors open, and the doors open immediately, because they're on Ma-Ma's payroll. The Judges are extremely effective, but there is so much crime in the Mega City, and they are spread so thin that only 6% of reported crimes are investigated each day. Ma-Ma was able to conquer the entire Peach Trees block and the three individual gangs specifically because a Judge hadn't visited the building in years.

Long as Kay doesn't spill his guts, anything that went down during Dredd and Anderson's visit could be chalked up to the Judges getting killed in the line of duty. She also opts not to kill an underling who failed her, noting that as much as he deserves it, the Judges have left her under too severe a manpower crunch to bump off any of her own men.

To go along with this theme other things were toned down as well. Most notably the Judges' uniforms were much more realistic body armor as opposed to the spandex with gigantic shoulder pads. They did however keep the iconic helmets and badges. The Lawmaster cycle was also toned down to the point of actually being a usable practical effect. Because of these changes the movie places much more emphasis on the crapsack world Mega City One is and focuses much more on the characters.

Instead of shooting a mook dead early in the film, Dredd fires a special incendiary round into the mook's head, which causes the poor bastard's brain to burn from the inside. During a confrontation with a pair of perps, Anderson shoots one from below the chin; despite one bullet being enough, she keeps firing until the perp's head disintegrates.

Dredd / int_8cb4ea46	comment	By-the-Book Cop: Dredd adheres very strictly to the letter of the law in general. His first mission is to protect whatever peace there is, not kill criminals, and he always follows protocol. It's not his fault most of the perps he faces are Too Dumb to Live after he gives them ample warning. Near the climax, Anderson reveals to Dredd that she knows she's failed her assessment due to losing her sidearm, an automatic disqualification, yet points out that until her assessment is officially over she is still a Judge and she will dispense justice and fight. This willingness to uphold the law despite gaining nothing from doing so is probably the reason Dredd gives her a passing grade.

In keeping with his tradition of engaging in this trope in the comic series one possible interpretation of Dredd giving Anderson a pass despite the loss of her firearm is that the rules of the assessment are that losing her Primary Weapon is an automatic fail. Given that Anderson is a psychic his passing her is an acknowledgment that her primary weapon is her psychic abilities.

When Dredd makes his miraculous reappearance, Ma Ma can't even shoot him because she's used up all her ammo.

After Dredd executes Zwirner in the mall food court, a cleaning machine goes by, wiping up the mess and trailing a cart of dead bodies, with an announcement that the food court will reopen in a half hour sounding in the background. Also, near the beginning, when Dredd and Anderson go to Peach Trees to investigate the murders of the three men dropped from the top floor, there's a rather large group of people standing around the dead bodies, one of them taking pictures with his cellphone.

The only saving grace is a moderate amount of flat ground between the ramp and the edge. Peach Trees comes equipped with blast doors to be closed in front of the entrances and windows of the building in the event of a nuclear attack to protect the residents inside. Unfortunately if you happen to be at the entranceway, and are sitting or are otherwise unable to move within approximately two seconds after the emergency lights activate and the alert warning sounds, you will be quickly crushed by the massive blast doors.

Dredd / int_ba5bbda5	comment	Mirror Character: Never outright stated, but a subtle theme of the film. Both Caleb and Dredd instruct their ally to shoot and kill an already severely wounded and incapacitated enemy. Dredd and Ma-Ma both make almost identical speeches over the building's PA system: they both essentially boil down to "I'm coming for you; anyone who gets in the way will die." Dredd and Ma-Ma both resort to fairly brutal means of killing their enemies. Ma-Ma has her victims skinned alive; Dredd burns a squad of mooks alive with an incendiary round. Dredd and Ma-Ma are both shot in almost the exact same spot on their bodies. Dredd and Ma-Ma both execute an enemy by dosing them with Slo-Mo and throwing them off the 200th floor of the building. To make the metaphor visual: when Ma-Ma dies, her blood briefly forms the red 'X' pattern that appears on a Judge's helmet. Lampshaded when they finally meet face-to-face. "You're a piece of work, Dredd. But then so am I."

While he cares about Mega City and the people he protects, he tortures and kills perps even when they've already surrendered. Regardless, he is also shown using only the proper amount of force when needed and doesn't shoot to kill until the other options are expired. For example not firing on the van in the opening scene until they run over an innocent, and using stun rounds on a pair of scared, stupid kids. He also shows willingness to break the rules when it counts. Instead of flunking Anderson for losing her primary weapon, he gives her the pass she deserves. Likewise, he refuses to execute a murder suspect on a "mere" 99% certainty of guilt.

Towards the end of the movie, Anderson spares Ma-Ma's tech guy because she could tell he was coerced and brutalized and when she stood by her decision, Dredd allowed it and seemed mildly impressed. Early on, perhaps out of pragmatism more than anything else, he lets a homeless guy slide on a vagrancy charge, so long as the guy isn't there by the time he gets back. The homeless man stayed put, and ran out his charity with Dredd ordering him to come with them.

She routinely abuses the Clan Techie even though, as far as we know, he is literally their only computer expert on staff; he thus gives up the code to her safe room to save his hide. She hires corrupt Judges to take out Dredd after her own men prove inadequate, but this just serves to resupply Dredd and Anderson with more ammo for the final assault on her safe room.

One of the corrupt Judges that tries to take down Dredd meets the business end of a High-Ex round. The boom extends to more than just his head. A key moment in Anderson's character development is when she does this after she's ordered by Dredd to execute a wounded mook. The medic who initially refused to help Dredd and Anderson is shot in the head by the corrupt judges after he says he would be willing to testify about what was really going on.

Dredd / int_c75df49a	comment	Shout-Out: One building is named after Elysium, Neill Blomkamp's then upcoming follow-up film to District 9. Producer Alex Garland has stated Blomkamp's films were a huge factor in getting Dredd made. There are several city blocks named after those involved with Dredd, like seasoned Judge Dredd illustrator Carlos Ezquerra and the creator John Wagner. In the first stairwell shootout, Dredd gives the mooks "twenty seconds to comply" and then "ten seconds to comply." This is a reference to the famous ED-209 scene in the original Robocop. The character of RoboCop was based in part on Judge Dredd. The Hostage Situation scene with the perp using a Human Shield is exactly like another famous scene from that movie, except instead of shooting the perp in the groin like RoboCop did, Dredd shoots him in the head. Interestingly, that's what Robo was supposed to do in the original script. There are a few points where the Clan Techie is listening to the theme from Snuff Box. Ma-Ma's full name is Madeline Madrigal. Madeline and Madrigal are twin antagonists in The Dresden Files.

Dredd reminds her that letting a perp go is both a fail in terms of her assessment, and a felony. She in turn observes that she's already failed, because she let herself be relieved of her primary weapon, but as long as the assessment is still under way, she has the right to dispense justice as she sees fit. As such, she's determined that the Techie is a victim, not a perp, and she intends to finish the job she and Dredd started, even though she knows that her chances of ever being a Judge are now zero. From the expression on what we can see of Dredd's face, this would seem to be the moment when he decides that she has, in fact, passed; they just had to execute four Judges for corruption, so a Judge willing to show mercy to the innocent and punish the guilty without hope of personal gain is indispensable.

As Lawgivers are designed to prevent strangers from using them, this goes poorly. For him resulting in part his lower arm and all of his hand being blown off. Ma-Ma's plan to bring in outside help in the form of corrupt Judges to kill Dredd and Anderson ultimately only serves to provide them with more ammo. The entire plot of the movie is kicked off by Kay trying to score points with Ma-Ma by suggesting that she might want to make an example of the three rival drug dealers. He could have just killed them himself and disposed of the bodies without drawing the attention of the Judges.

In Dredd's case, the damage from the bullet wound was justified as the result of an armor-piercing round which went straight through him. There was no bullet to remove and minimum trauma, provided it hit nothing critical on its way through.

Towards the end of the movie, Anderson spares Ma-Ma's tech guy because she could tell he was coerced and brutalized and when she stood by her decision, Dredd allowed it and seemed mildly impressed. Early on, perhaps out of pragmatism more than anything else, he lets a homeless guy slide on a vagrancy charge, so long as the guy isn't there by the time he gets back. The homeless man stayed put, and ran out his charity with Dredd ordering him to come with them. Dredd also elects to stun, rather than kill, two would-be young gang members after his attempt to intimidate them into surrender failed. This after killing gang members outright and ordering Anderson to carry out a execution sentence on a wounded criminal that was trying to kill them.

Dredd / int_ffad4e9f	comment	Shown Their Work: The movie shows realistically what happens to a person after a gruesome injury. Those slow-motion shots of bullets deforming and tearing open people's bodies? That's not exaggerated for the sake of Gorn; that's what a speeding bullet really does to flesh. This film shows a lot of the issues that sprout up when a setting fully embraces Democracy Is Bad. People can't live together peacefully, so all that's left is the Appeal to Force, which in this setting is often the ruthlessness of Dredd and his fellow judges. The situation is nearly the same as in many countries without some sort of democratic leadership. The only thing holding everything together is mutual self-interest or fear.
