#JudgeDredd #Dredd #2000AD - Zábava
I’ve always liked how the 2012 movie didn’t focus so much on his actual story and is more of a day in the life kind of movie. It’s like you’re following around a judge for a day and it just so happens to be judge dredd. Would love to see a sequel to it.
Like the anticlimactic ending. Hershe’s like wtf happened in there? Dredd, man of few words: Drug bust, perps were...uncooperative
Which is exactly why it worked so well
Dredd 2012 is occult to no end. Mama stands for FreeMasonry, which uses the symbol 33, rendered as MM, WW, CC or a combo of them- you can see this in brands and logos like M&M, Mickey Mouse, Marylin Manson, Marylin Monroe, Michael Madsen, West World, WWE logo, Disney's Club 33, MC Hammer
In occult doctrines, Judges are Gods, Lords. thus, in history, a massive war was waged between the Empire and the Rebels, also called the Commune.
A historical figure in this war accross centuries was Cromwell, who, although a Lord, sided with the Commune against the Empire.
@@criztu not sure if joking or not
@@Motorheadsup It takes you back to the start of his day. The 1st scene was a chase where he killed multiple people then went to headquarters to pick up his partner. Place truly is a meat grinder. Loved that line at the end. Truly showed the brutality of that world and his life
Me: "Oh man, I can't wait to see Karl Urban's Dread instantly kick Sylvester's ass!"
JoBlo: "Sylvester Stallone was in more movies so point for him."
Wait what
Yeah I felt like that category was meant to be who was the better actor but it was just about who was the bigger star I guess
@@Matt_Bright_1983 He used Tango and Cash as an example so it couldn't have been better actor. He was probably trying to make the scores look more even than they actually were.
@@SeanGA1 Tango and Cash was a good action flick, Slingy.
@@SpecialProjectY I watched it for the first time like half a year ago, and it was the most annoying movie I have seen in awhile. Kurt and Sylvester constantly trying to force in their one liners at the same time every 2 seconds, and Stallone's acting as the intellectual was Incredibly unconvincing.
Exactly what i thought.
I want my Dredd mini series starring Karl Urban
It could happen! But probably only after The Boys.
That would be incredible.
A miniseries would make the most sense.
They'll make it he man style, where dredd dies in episode 2, and judge Anderson takes over and she has a girlfriend
@@KanishQQuotes yes we all must be " woke " for christ sake ... I'm getting tired of it
This is a no contest. Carl Urban all day.
Hes Judge, Jury and executioner.

Matthew 5:14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid./Inspiration+Are you living your life in a way that shines light into the darkness of this world? When we love God with all our heart, soul, and mind, we will become a light to the world. Like a city that is sitting on a hill, everyone will be able to see your light shine. People looking for hope will go towards the light. God will use you to draw others to him. /Prayer+ Dear God, forgive me for the times when I have hidden my light. I know believing and trusting in you sets me apart in this world of darkness. You have made me to stand out as a light to guide others to you. Help me to have the courage to embrace this calling and be your hands and feet. May I live a life that shines and brings you glory. In Jesus’ name, amen.
CHOKE ON THAT!
@DECIMUS MAXIMUS The Father,Son and Holy Spirit are the Law,justice and peace
@DECIMUS MAXIMUS Only by acknowledging that there is a God, can we hope to make sense of human existence, the world we inhabit, and, paradoxically, the problem of evil.
But if God is goodness personified and therefore, as our Creator, the divine source of all that is good, true and beautiful, why is there so much evil and suffering? What has gone wrong? The Christian answer to that question, the Bible says, is that our world has been damaged by rebellion against God. An originally good creation has been spoiled.
If you find this hard to believe, consider the evidence. Look at all the many examples there are of benevolent and intricate design in Nature: the nest-building instincts of birds, the incredibly complex structure of the human brain, the navigational systems of bats and whales, the biological software of DNA in every cell of our bodies, sexual reproduction, etc. All this exists side by side with harmful viruses, disease and death. Can its obvious implications be ignored? Consider, too, the significance of the fact that human beings possess an inner moral code they cannot get rid of yet seem unable to obey. Does all this not suggest some process of deterioration from hopeful beginnings? Is it not also significant that many ancient peoples and cultures, including the Chinese, have some tradition of a lost Paradise in the dim and distant past?

Dredd "is not a particularly good Judge Dredd movie." I wholeheartedly disagree.
It was WAY better than the 1995 movie.
Agreed!
Still a true Judge Dreed adaptation masterpiece 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
@@fikrizainudin6376 for the cityscapes & sets, blockwars, the ABC Warrior, Ian Dury, Max Von Sydow, Jürgen Procknow, and only those, yes.
For Dredd, it has Karl Urban, the script with Joe's mannerisms & common sayings included, the graffiti & murals, Olivier Thirlby, the soundtrack, and the overall feeling/gist imparted by the film is more inkeeping with 2000AD than the 95 film is a Demolition Man in AD clothing incomparison.
AGREED 👍👍👍👍 !!!!
Dredd is both a comic book adaptation and a cult movie masterpiece.
And a member of the "came out a few years too soon" club.
Yep
Netflix deveria hacer una serie de este pelicula
I would have to give it to Dredd 2012.
One of them you could have lunch with the other would scare lunch out of you. Karl Urban is an awesome actor
Karl Urban's Dredd is far superior to Stallone's 1995 version of Dredd. He truly is a badass and stays true to the original comic character.
Agreed. Stallone's version was all corn and cheese
Exactly what I was going to say. Shame on you, JoBlo for even suggesting the Stallone embarrassment is even in the same league! (Also, the 2012 version is more like a short story, like the adaptation of a single issue stand-alone tale rather than a multi-issue bloated pantomime. As such, it's taut, minimal, and a perfect window into a great cinematic could-a-been.)
He was better in character, but even if the movie is soaked in CGI, it lacks most comic book visuals and menacing but cartoonish villains.
MegaCity had little to no area, they build up. Uniforms while impractical, they mimic Hugo Boss towering sense of presence. Overall, movie set in the future felt like Detroit today.
I could watch Urbans dread take out perps all day
@@benetedmunds Yeah, he tossed in some irrelevant categories to prop up Stallones Dread and was questionable on some legit ones
Stallone's Judge Dredd was going to be darker and more like Comic book source material, but the studio and Stallone felt it would be more bankable to cut the violence down to a PG-13 rating. They were wrong.
Still a Cult Classic tho
@@slicksmokegaming9857 more like a classic to laugh at like The Room
@@biguy617 thats your opinion tho
@@slicksmokegaming9857 I can't look t it like any other way because of how bad it is.
@@biguy617 Again thats your opinion plenty people love it it was a different time lol
Stallone's Dredd lost me the moment he removed his helmet. Urban's Dredd is superior in literally everything. This had never been a contest...
I do think first movie’s Judge uniforms and depictions of Mega City One were pretty comic accurate
@@clydemarshall8095 I think that and the practical effects are the only thing that movie has going for it
Absolutely no competition whatsoever.
The 90's film was utter shite and barely tolerable.
I see no one's read the comics.
@ Graeme Williams
IKR⁉️ 🤦♀️
It’s actually somewhat amusing at times……you know…….watching people argue over something being “comic accurate” when it becomes quite obvious that one or both parties involved in their little comment war are, in fact, just a bunch of douches…..ffs 🤦♀️ 😑😅
Dredd definitely feels like a one-shot story from the comics, which is imo a good way to add focus to what was supposed to be introducing the character to a new audience. It's a budgetary limitation too of course, but overall they cover most of the potential problems to at least a decent level and excel in others. I found the drug sequences to add a bit of needed visual style to the presentation, never seen it in 3D and never will.
Yeah, his criticism of it all being in the building is weak. It brought enough of the larger world into it to flesh it out and understand it. Also and more accurately this is what Dredd does. "Small" isolated incidents and plenty of em.
Those slow Mo sets are epic in 3d to be honest
Dredd was so underrated! I am guessing because the Raid had just come out and people thought it was more of the same so they skipped out on it.
I'm going to have to strongly disagree, in that I highly doubt the majority of American audiences picked a foreign film starring NOBODY they'd ever heard of vs. an American film starring one of the leads from Game of Thrones and one of the supporting cast of The Lord of the Rings. I'm not saying that The Raid is a bad movie, or that NOBODY went to see it, but c'mon...
Maybe you're not from the U.S., so I could understand that, but having lived here my whole life I can honestly say there's RARELY been a time where Americans flocked to theatres in the hundreds of thousands to watch a movie with subtitles...
More than likely, people just (incorrectly) associated Dredd (2012) with its inferior counterpart Judge Dredd (1995), and said, "Nah... that first one was lame."
And now looking at the U.S. box office comparisons: The Raid pulled in 4.1 million while Dredd pulled in 13.4 million, more than THREE times the box office gross. Dredd even beat the Raid WORLDWIDE in box office gross, so it stands to reason that MORE people wouldn't see a movie they were "skipping out on".
@@mattbrendlen The original comment doesn't necessarily have to refer to the US market. There's a whole world out there, in case you hadn't noticed.
@@barryhercules6486 Yeeeeeeeeeeah... that's why I was also sure to include the WORLDWIDE box office, as well (which Dredd ALSO beat out The Raid in).
Did you not read that part, or were you too busy furiously typing your glib reply?
@@mattbrendlenhow your "glib" reply making that only people from the US can understand. Stop chatting Glibberish.
@@barryhercules6486 Can you try that again? Maybe this time write something that makes sense?
Dredd 2012 definitely needs and deserves a sequel
I Want The Sequel, DREDD II!
This is a no contest, Dredd 2012 beats Judge Dredd 1995 hands down
Hahaha, I was just saying that in my head as I saw your comment. I will say the ABC Robot in the 95 film is dope. The 2012 film is beautifully photographed and acted.
The only thing I liked about the stallone dredd is the time given to if the judges are helping or continuing the problem
Yeeaahhhh I think ur comment is ganna get a lot of likes😂
5:22, Stallone's ego is what caused him to remove the helmet.
i dont think it is about ego , do you really think a studio would give an actor 15 mil to cover his face the entire movie .
Dread 2012 would be my vote for sure, and respect to Karl Urban for keeping his vanity in check and keeping the helmet on the entire time to remain as close to the character as possible
Urban grew up reading the comics.
I still love Dredd throwing Mama's henchmen off that balcony, no growls, no spoken threats, no gestures, just toss, survey whos there, vanish back into the dust from the ruin you just failed to kill him with as confidently as he walked out of it with your boy. it sets a tone of him as a unrelenting force she cant stop far better then all the over blown threats and posturing Sylvester's Dredd had in his movie.
The 2012 should have a follow-up but unfortunately at lost money
It made alot of money in dvd sales, so there's a huge chance it will have a sequel. Also there's been rumors and talks of it.
That is a damn shame. Film was worthy of maybe two more films.
Now that Karl Urban is a much more known and popular actor, I think may make a sequel both profitable and possible. It would be good to see a continuation with a higher budget.
@@LSSJTHOR alteady have sequels, but in comics
"DREDD" (2012) starring Karl Urban MORE THAN DEFINITELY WINS this competition for the mere fact that HE (UNlike Stallone) NEVER EVER took off his helmet once during the entire film which shows a great amount of respect for the original source material 👍👏👍👏👍👏👍👏 !
Having faith in... and sticking closely to... the original source material is RARELY SEEN in today's live-action comic book superhero movie & TV series adaptations 🙄 !
LMAO you do know that in the source material, Dredd did indeed remove his helmet, right?
@@Ticketman99In very rare occasions and even then his face is never shown
@@purpledragons1146 Yet it happened. Rare occasions do not mean never.
Someone should reboot Judge Dredd taking the best elements from both films and leaving out the worst elements from both films to create a perfect Judge Dredd film.
The problem is that it's too ridiculous for general audiences to get onboard with. I think Dredd did a really good job of that.
exactly
I’m sorry, but Armand Asante was perfect as Rico, chewing the scenario like few could do.
Right?
You're not wrong mate. But Mama is a ruthless shot of fried gold.
Rico also, at least initially, had some real impressive feats under his belt. The man not only successfully broke himself out of a ridiculous prison, and shocked the audience with his ability to wield a Lawgiver on top of hotwiring and establishing leadership over a giant warbot, but immediately canned his greatest adversary using their own judicial system. His coup attempt may also have actually succeeded were he to have had the time necessary to produce his clone enforcers.
With a more serious script, a less precious main actor and a complete lack of Rob Schneider, Judge Dredd could have been a long-lived banger of a classic.
LAW!
100 % assante was great as rico
Dredd is a great movie, one of the best that year. Urban can play an role!
Dredds 3d was amazing in the theater. Glad I got to see it there. So much better than the garbage Stallone one.
The slow mo scenes were fantastic in 3d
As a young boy growing up in the 90s the original has a special place in in my heart but I Love both lol
As much as I love Silvester Stallone I have to go with 2012 Dredd!!!
"I knew you'd say that."
Karl Urban's Dredd kicks Judge Dredd's ass in every way, shape, and form. Stallone's Judge Dredd was a joke, and doesn't even compare. Just wish there was a Dredd 2 movie.
Man i equally love both movies.
But damn, im still waiting for a sequel to Dredd.
Judge Dredd ceases to be a Judge Dredd movie 15 mins in when Stallone ditches the helmet and uniform. Game-Set-Match to Dredd.
Yep - pretty much
I bet when Stallone watched Dredd he was like 'Daaaaaangg, so that's how it's supposed to go'
Ma-Ma is a great villian!
She is a Feminist villain and she sucks
She's a pussy. Literally. Unconvincing as a villain. Not even intimidating. She's like a nuisance crazed woman who just needs her psychotic drugs. I bet she doesn't even know the right kind of ammunition to load into her guns. Yes, she's dangerous but she's not a good tactician. She just lashes out because of past personal pain or emotions. Armand Asante's antagonist character Rico however is someone you don't want to show up in your house because you know he's gonna slowly murder you, your wife, your sister, your parents, your dog,and your goldfish and eat the leftover spaghetti in your kitchen while watching his victims' blood spread on the floor like a painter watching his masterpiece paint itself. But I got to admit Urban's Dredd character is better and closer to the comics than Stallone's. : )
@@NPNN-xt4ot Rico rules.Assante was great such an underrated actor
I like these face offs. Great premise. Keep em coming!!
Stallone: 90s logic.
Urban: Subtle logic. FTW.
The costume/uniform in DREDD is also comic accurate. It's based on the first uniform used in the first year of comics.
Specific progs?
@@Ticketman99 okay. I've replied to you 3 times. With issues and links. And CZcams shows them post but then when I reload the page, the posts are gone. Are you seeing my reply? Or is CZcams being weird and glitchy?
@@orinanime Yeah, CZcams's being weird.
@@Ticketman99 Progs 02 through the 40s and 50s at least
@@Ticketman99 sent a simple answer. Apparently whenever I try to go into detail CZcams shuts down my posts
I cannot express enough how much I LOVE Dredd as a movie! It is one the best action movies ever for me. I try to rewatch it at least one a year and never get bored of it. Just awesome. I especially liked that they didn't try to shoe in stupid jokes or comic relief. Such a shame it passed by mostly unnoticed. Everyone was too busy cooing over Dark Knight that year (which I thoroughly dislike, but that's a hot take for another time) Have I said Dredd is awesome?! Well, it is 😁
Do you think the movie is at all realistic?
I'm glad I got to see both !
Most fun I’ve had with a video for a long time.
Love Both films for different reasons
No one asks for a Judge Dredd sequel. Everyone asks for a Dredd sequel.
I’m surprised it was so close. I thought Karl Urban’s Dredd would win almost across the board. That is a much better movie in every sense, but yeah, the city in Judge Dredd was closer to the comics. Also, the opening outfit in Judge Dredd was comic-accurate, but Dredd won that category IMO because Urban stays in his outfit for the entire movie (including the mask), even though it was just a more realistic take on what the character would wear. Personally, I prefer Dredd’s outfit over the actual comic design, but Judge Dredd would have won that category regardless for me if Stallone had stayed in the outfit, mask and all, for the entire movie.
As far as I’m concerned, Karl Urban IS Dredd.
Karl Urban's outfit IS also comic accurate. It's based on the outfit from the first 50 issues.
Look up the first year of Judge Dredd comics from 2000 AD Megazine.
He didn't have the giant eagle and epaulettes yet.
We need more of these VS!!! Great job settling that one!!!
2012 Dredd was so under rated I loved that movie and I have the Blue Ray I really wished that they would have did a sequel movie.
Cool! More please!
the only channel i give an immediate thumbs up.. love your channel! very entertaining! oh and the 2012 Dredd was insanely awesome!
2012 instantly knocks out the 1995 one
Music by Alan Silvestri in 95 Judge Dredd is pure gold. Songs too.
Stallone Dredd: fun, campy, nostalgia bias makes it my fave.
Urban Dredd: def more serious, more badass, thoroughly enjoyable.
I own both. ;-)
To me they are like day and night, two totally different movies. I've been a huge Judge Dredd fan since I was a teen and have many of the comics. Although due to budget limitations in _"Dredd"_ Mega city-1 don't look like much, but apart from that it's much more true to the comic in my opinion.
Oh really? Which comic arc did the 2012 adapt?
I have a love/hate for the '95 Dredd. It utterly fails as a Dredd film, being too confused as to what it is and how to interpret Dredd for a world audience. In the end, it just becomes a generic Stallone film.
But it does have excellent production design that captures the look of Mega-City One (no surprise considering the design crew included artists who were currently drawing Judge Dredd in 2000ad and in Dredd's spin off Megazine). And the opening Block War scene was like watching a classic Brian Boland or Ron Smith strip brought to life, and still holds up as a great Dredd intro.
But the plot was all over the place, and had more holes than a Boing stadium. Even if Stallone had kept the helmet on all the way through, that movie was doomed.
The Urban Dredd wins hands down. There's simply no contest. First and foremost, it's a solid action movie, with a distinct style, and an instantly accessible appeal that allows Dredd to be introduced to the uninitiated from a familiar setting. Even if you'd never heard of Judge Dredd before, you knew what was going on, what the stakes were, and who was who.
It sucks we'll never get a sequel that it deserves (and I'll probably never get a Judge Death movie in my lifetime), but I'll settle for at least one F##ng kick ass Dredd film than nothing at all.
Nailed it
exactly, dont understand why it gets so much hate, its a fun movie
I like them both. I’m hoping they do more to this story.
Yea I Agree. I remember being really surprised how much I liked 2012 JD. I kinda felt the same about 2008 Punisher Warzone . They’re both pretty violent. I like the change in tone as opposed to earlier versions of these characters in movies .
Both were enjoyable and entertaining to watch at least in my opinion.
I agree.
I want a DREDD sequel with Karl Urban
Interesting to break it down into elements where u might give Stallones Dread the checkmark in some areas. But, even those wins have little bearing on the movie itself. So Stallone and his writers have more pedigree. So what? What the hell does pedigree have to do with the final product. Knock off those 2 checkmarks and it's a runaway.
As for the rest, a bit subjective. Even respecting the source material that he gives Stallones city can be takin away by Stallone personally.
Stallones is literally unwatchable while Urbans can be rewatched multiple times
Love Stallone but he has several stinkers and this is one of em.
Judgement: Dredd 2012
I love both movies!
very charitable to keep Judge Dredd in this 1-sided competition. Not even close.
I went to see 2012 Dredd in the theater after consuming an edible. It started a panic attack and a sudden feeling of “I’m going to die some day” that I could not shake for weeks. I blame drugs mixed with the slow mo death sequences
lol
So, scared straight. That's what Dredd tends to do.
For whatever reason, edibles also give me that panic-attacky feeling of realizing all kinds of serious things that I don't normally think about. I generally avoid them unless I'm going to sleep soon.
Dredd 2012 should have had a follow up! Judge Dredd 1995 was a vehicle for Stallone at best, it had decent references to the ABC warriors but beyond that it was all about Stallone’s ego. Karl Urban did an excellent job with Dredd 2012! Great cast all round! Alex Garland did an excellent job of the 2012 script! Sorry JoBlo, but your analysis is wrong but the decision is correct!
I LOVE BOTH MOVIES. I CALL THIS ONE A DRAW!!
Karl Urban absolutely was fire as Dredd. More importantly, he kept his helmet on throughout the film! Despite what I heard before saying there'll be no sequels, this film deserves at least two more!
2000AD in my opinion was a masterpiece of a comic series from the 70s to the end of the 90s. It is a gold mine for potential movie adaptations that have yet to be discovered by the studios. Dredd was fantastic but just didnt have the marketing or funding to really reach the popularity it deserved. I supsect however that Dredd has done extremely well on home release and streaming.
both are good in their own ways. i loved Stallones Dredd movie when i watched it in Cinema as a kid
but stalones dredd felt like you was in mega city 1 and carl urbans felt like you was in one of th e mega blocks.
I absolutely love both
If you combine them both there is a perfect movie
Both are good in different ways
This is right on Pretty much every point. Carl urban and the grittiness of the Second Movie, combined with the production value, Sci-fi designs and crazy characters of the first one. That war-Robot was so bad ass, and the cannibal Gang as well.
Completely agree with this verdict. Been saying this for years, mix the two movies, put Urban's Dredd in Stallone's movie with its sets and characters and you have the perfect Dredd movie.
Thanks for the video!! See you later!! Stay safe.😉
I loved the fact it was in yhe towerblock. Gave it a claustrophobic feel
Please make more of these!
Comparing these films is like asking what tastes better: a bag of coffee grounds or a cappuccino?
They are so different that they cannot be judged.
They both are good.
I remember seeing Judge Dredd 1995 in theatres. The entire thing seemed like it was trying to be an action comedy movie and it pulled that off. Dredd 2012 was in no way shape or form trying to be a comedy. It was a gory action sci-fi, set in a bleak nightmarish future where the sweet release of death would be coveted instead of being feared. The Judges are supposed to be feared above all else and Karl Urban couldn't have played that role any better if he tried. Does anyone watch Judge Dredd 1995 for a reason that doesn't include cheap laughs?
I love both
I'm still devastated DREDD basically tanked at the box office and never got a sequel.
People completely forget that the comics are massively about the look and aesthetic and not just the tone of the story. Dredd failed on the aesthetic, it looks like a little lower budget TV adaptation. The Stolone movie mostly excels at the kook and that counts hugely. This is why it has to be almost a draw .
Karl Urban is the real deal as he never took his helmet off. He is the law
Dredd 2012 is one of my favorite movies!
Judge dredd is nostalgic but the one with Karl Urban is hands down better
Ok... I think you really gave a fair assessment of the films
Could be a new series: Face Off
I like it!
Judge Dredd: I Am The Law. Me: really? I wouldn't have known 😂😂😂
Wanna see more of this format in future Joblo....... What about 1991 Point Break VS 2015 Point Break ?
Waste of time. 2015 version is trash
Dredd 2012 is one of a kind. Must have watched that film 40 times.Which is something I never do. But the film is so just so different, dyspotic, dark and grim. You really get a sense that Dredd is battling impossibly hopeless odds.
Can’t believe we are even comparing these films .!!!
Stallone got to show my face i am a superstar. Urban not showing my face the correct way to play the part of Dredd, no contest. Oh one more thing INCENDARY, classic.
Do a 2012's Dredd sequel with more Dredd world AND the ABC Warrior please.
Dredd is near perfect film! I pity anyone who verbally criticizes it for revealing their pure and utter foolishness openly in the same way I'd feel sorry for a grown human being who draws attention to themselves to purposely piss their pants and being proud about it.
Honestly the best actor in Stallones Dredd was the robot.
... as someone , who read 2000AD , in 1977 , I think that DREDD was closer to the source material
Dredd was great. I stand by it all the way. There should have been more in the franchise
You've cut it pretty close there, hoss. We all know what's the superior movie here.
2012 Dredd is a great movie that has a huge impact and really holds up. You can quibble about the production design, but it looks gritty and realistic and perfectly fits the movies tone. The acting is top-notch, especially from Carl Urban. Yes, it felt a bit closed-in, but that was the intent.
The Stallone movie is annoying to watch and never feels real. It does have a comic book quality, but so do the Joel Schumacher Batmans, and for much the same reasons. It's not a good realization of Dredd and not a good movie in general.
Joblo showed the Bandit how to bring it back no matter what it takes.
Even though I happen to like the Sylvester Stallone's judge dredd.
But Karl Urban dredd made it more satisfyingly violent. And More in tune to what the comic book was doing.
JoBlo to the Dredd movies: I'm the law
Dredd is close to the character of the comics shame audiences were not ready for it
You guys should do a VS series on Cape Fear next
We need a HBOMax's Dredd serie with Karl Urban leading.
