Went to Best Buy to get the blu-ray. They had one copy left.

I am the law.

I really, really hope it somehow makes it to $50 million for the sequel. I've shown and recommended it to everyone I know. Next week, grabbing that blu ray.

Just going to link it instead of having someone load an 8MB gif lol.

Come on people, buy, buy, buy!!!!!!

 

[Perspicacity]

My roommate picked it up and we watched this last night. Did not expect it to be so rad.

eww his under-chin just slopes downward...
No wonder people preferred Stallone in the role.

 

[BotoxAgent]

got my blu-ray today, can't wait

 

[kaskade]

Bought the Blu-Ray today and played a few scenes. I forgot how damn pretty and well shot the movie is. The slow motion stuff is amazing. 3D looks good on my TV as well. Nice to finally be able to use it again. Now it's time to invite all my friends over to experience it.

Well, it was shot by Anthony Dod Mantle, who won an Oscar for cinematography for Slumdog Millionaire.

And according to Side By Side, one of the big digital cinematographers.

Movie featured a good amount of ambient shots, with no human subjects, bringing forth the desolation. It really was well shot and its one of the things I loved about it.

Really? I thought it showed overcrowdedness.

 

[TheKaeptain]

beezle! I thought you were dead, man. Dredd can totally be our new A-Team.

Hey I was on the A-team team too!

 

[BlueTsunami]

Really? I thought it showed overcrowdedness.

Well in the building itself when the halls were cleared out, they featured some great angled shots of the emptiness and how beatup the environment was. That isn't to say it still didn't feel claustrophobic due to halls layout.

 

[ZoddGutts]

Already #1 at itunes. Hopefully it does well enough in home media DVD/Blu-Ray sales. Only 9 million away to break even which it should be able to do. Hope it does well enough in the long run that it's enough to warrant a sequel. Great movie btw. Reminded me of Robocop 1 type violence.

 

[EliteArtist]

Incredibly enjoyable. I watched it back when it hit the $2 movie theater (about three weeks after it hit major theaters in my area), and I was impressed. Everything really worked and I don't think I'd change anything about the film (If I somehow magically inherited that power) . Which usually indicates if a film is rewatchable for myself.

 

[wenis]

Can't wait to rewatch this tonight on the new plasma with all the new upgraded B&W speakers.

 

[Evolved1]

Holy shit... now this is how you make a fucking movie.

Wow. I meant to see this in the theater but it didn't work out... really regret it now. Damn. Awesome. This was great.

 

[Solo]

Hey I was on the A-team team too!

Now we're three!

 

[Ryu1999]

My only problem with the Blu-Ray is the extraordinarily low volume of the audio mix. I pretty much had to turn my system way up to hear just the basic dialogue.

 

[Evolved1]

One of my favorite shots in the movie is in the first act when Dredd gets off the bike and is walking toward the van.

Great 'shit just got real' shot.

 

[caesar]

Bad ass movie.

They handled the budget very well.

 

[Dicer]

Will be buying the Blu for myself and a friend, I have a feeling blu/dvd/digital sales will be much better....we need a damned sequel

 

[Solideliquid]

Ok you talked me into it GAF.

Spoiler

iTunes

 

[Clevinger]

Great movie.

And it's funny how much it reminded me of The Raid. Wasn't expecting that.

There's a reason I made this gif

 

[Tacitus_]

lol at so many people "having seen the movie at a friend's place who pirated it."

On another note; I really enjoyed the movie, but I expected way more shootouts from the way it was described by you guys. Dredd is never really in danger except for one moment maybe. I was REALLY expecting a blood bath.

That's because he's fucking Dredd.

 

[jdl]

Damn you Aussie-GAF!! I want my blu-ray version with that sweet cover

http://www.jbhifionline.com.au/dvd/dvd-genres/action-adventure/dredd-3d-blu-ray/678319


And, I would've posted this earlier today at work but that gif above....yeah, I was close to getting in trouble.

Oh, it's perdy.

 

[Phoenix]

Dredd was all shoot-out action scenes. The Raid focused way more in the fighting scenes.

I gotta say that The Raid was more competent in that aspect, but still doesn't make it a better movie for me, not by a long shot.

If I hadn't seen The Raid first I might agree, but in general The Raid just executed its plot far better than Dredd did and that's unfortunate because I really wanted to like it and gave it a chance, but it let me down.

Two of the Best Buys were sold out around my area yesterday. Not indicative of overall interest of course, but it was good to see. (Even if I had to go to Target to get it) I'll be watching this tonight I think.

Same here, so I hope it's selling well, but I suspect they didn't ship much to begin with.

 

[a secret-boss]

nice to see its #1 on amazon

 

[Snaku]

nice to see its #1 on amazon

#1 on iTunes as well.

 

[StriKeVillain]

Waiting to utilize Best Buy's upgrade and save so I can get it for $15. Probably on Monday.

 

[Ronin]

Just finished it. Feel bad not supporting it's theatrical run.

Holy drokk it was awesome.

 

[GhaleonEB]

Put in my order for the Blu-Ray today. Will be one of a very few movies I own on the format, at the moment.

 

[SmithnCo]

nice to see its #1 on amazon

Holy crap, nice.

 

[Dicer]

I was thinking, the Dredd universe has so many stories to tell...it would make a hell of a Cable series.

I'd be more than pleased with a sequel though.

 

[Mattlikewhoa]

This was a blind buy for me! My copy arrived from Amazon yesterday and I plan to watch the 3D version in my HT this weekend...

Sounds like this is going to be GOOD!

 

[TheApatheticOne]

Did a blind buy of this today. Putting it on now. I'm trusting you GAF!

 

[IamMattFox]

Man, this movie pretty fantastic.

Like the Raid but actually entertaining.

 

[Platy]

nice to see its #1 on amazon

#1 on iTunes as well.

I hope it shows a long run on retail ... it really deserves to be recognized and receive as much sequels as it needs.

The movie is like the Robocop of this time

 

[Amagon]

Did my duty and picked up the BR. Love this movie!

 

[legacyzero]

So, does GAF like this movie? Or is it a dud?

I love Karl Urban, but that helmet looks so stupid LOL.

 

[Hellion]

Need to pick up my blu-ray.

We all hate it.

[rexor0717]

It was awesome at what it was trying to do. Pure action and basassery. But don't expect much else.

 

[Snake]

Everyone was complaining about Karl Urban's helmet in promo images but I don't remember giving it a second thought during the movie.

 

[itwasTuesday]

One thing I might change is

Spoiler

The flashback when Anderson(Thirlby) looks at the picture and notices that it was the woman's husband who she just killed. We just saw her shoot the guy a few minutes ago, I thought the look to the picture was sufficient.

Cut it out.


The trailer on the blu looks all clean and dark with some edge enhancements and no grain.

 

[Jibbajabbawockky]

Just saw this for the first time. What a badass movie. I wish I had watched it in theaters.

 

[legacyzero]

"Defence noted"

LOL. My first order as judge.

THE PEELZ ARE MINE.
