The bad guys in the movie was too realistic and hit too close at home for the liberals

Poorly marketed

>no name actors
>unfamiliar character
>low level marketing
>Stallone movie hurt the brand

>white woman crime boss
>realistic
pick one

...

So he could learn to pick himself up.

Little marketing, released as Dr3Dd so it looked like a shitty 3d gimmick, no star power, nobody in America reads 2000 AD so they thought it was just a remake of a mediocre Stallone flick

It was ultimately a success because it has a cult following and there might...someday...be a sequel

Because the original was better.

Giving me mixed signals here famm
I meant her henchmen in terms of bad guys, otherwise I would've mentioned mama
Go home

>filename

nah not really m8

tumblr pls go

Bad marketing choices.

>lily only did a few scenes with her head shaved or short hair
damn shame

>claim to hate niggers
>act like niggers posting shit on every board

kill yourself faggot

Im fairly certain it atleast made its budget back in blu-ray sales.

Hoping for a sequel.

>claim to hate niggers
Who are you quoting?

...

>multicultural team of 20-something goons
>takes orders from a 40-something woman
What's realistic about them?

It's a fantasy movie senpai, a 30-40 something mob queen doesn't have to make sense irl, even though many such exists in Asia

It did alright in Blu-ray but it as 15 mil shy of it's production cost. A sequel will never happen. And it's a real shame because unlike DC and Marvel's capeshit 2000AD has real quality stories

>white woman crime boss
>realistic
>pick one

Hillary.

I thought it was a good movie and I'm not so insecure that I need a movie to make a lot of money in order to justify liking it.

I also don't care because it exists and I get to watch it and I don't care about what others think.

>Sup Forums a.k.a the absolute worst board when it comes to forced memes and shitposting
>calling anyone else out on it

that's nice, but that isn't the right answer to his question.

Ok. You need a movie to make a lot of money to get a sequel though.

>That pepe

It makes police officers sympathetic and demonizes thugs.

who gives a fuck, sequels are cancer stories should be self-contained.

Uhm, maybe people that want to see more Judge Dredd and Mega City 1, you fucking retard. I said sequels, not a fucking interconnected trilogy like Lord of the Rings.

R rated 3D

people not knowing about the comics.

soccer moms not liking authority figures

The same reason that Bernie Sanders failed: Reddit isn't representative of the world.

fuck off retard find a new universe to enjoy you fucking pleb

bet you've never read a book outside of school in your life you brain dead fuck nugget pansy-ass bitch nigga pussy cuck drone shit

Must be why Ron Paul failed and Donald Trump is going to fail too. Life exists outside of Redchannit.

If USA gets another token president then I'll be leaving for some eastern asian country and not looking back

You hit the nail on the head. Dredd failed because audiences are stupid and resistant to something different. And no famous actors were involved. The people need FAMOUS people in their action movies, or otherwise it's not worth watching. Why is this? Well, this is cause for another thread.

>filename
first time I watched the movie I wondered whether it was her or not for a few minutes

>Judge Dreed
>Reddit

More like Sup Forums

it didn't, it's getting a tv show and has huge fan acceptance

It isn't getting a movie sequel because the box office returns weren't good enough.

the mary sues in the movie were balanced and believable

Poor Karl, such a great actor, but never gets truly big roles.

He MADE Vaako in Riddick.

yeah, instead one of the most growing markets in the world is giving it a chance that will result in more hours of dredd. There's clearly more confidence in the people who made it if they're giving it a go for a tv show, it will definitely have a higher budget

You can give any number of reasons, but I don't think anyone really knows.

If you can describe exactly why any movie succeeds or fails, call Hollywood. They have a billion dollar salary waiting for you.

the reflexive answer is "poorly marketed." [citation needed]

One could just as easily say "it had no star." Which is true, and might explain why people wouldn't commit to a movie where they had 100% no familiar points of reference. I mean, it's not even Capeshit.

Thing is, Dredd doesn't even need a higher budget, it's got the perfect setting for low budget production.

I don't know about you, but even though I loved the film from the second I saw the trailer, when I saw it marketed as "Dredd 3D" I cringed so fucking hard, 3D instantly makes a film sound worse, which did no favours for something that looks kinda generic and boring to most people.

Terrible marketing
Stallone movie still somehow fresh in everyones minds
They changed the name to DREDD 3D which turned everyone off it even more

>Dredd doesn't even need a higher budget
Yes, he does
>it's got the perfect setting for low budget production.
You've never read a Judge Dredd comic in your life.

Yeah Dredd doesn't need a mammoth budget.

If they do do a tv show, every episode should be basically stand alone. A day in the life of Judge Dredd. With a vague season long arc threadded in.

It'll probably happen, especially with the success of Deadpool. Not just because R rated comic book stuff but giving the fans what they're screaming for actually pays off.

Urban Dredd =/= 2000AD Judge Dredd

oh yea give me that dredd tv show with Karl as Dredd

No, I haven't read the comics, I am familiar with them, and some of the more iconic plotlines, but you are correct. I am basing my view off of the movie universe, which aesthetically suits cheap shooting locations and minimal CG. There are fan films out there that nail the feel of the movie done on a shoestring budget.

Is he not cuck enough for Hollywood?

I loved it...

My theory is that he doesn't fit big hero characters, most of the roles I've seen him in have been villainous in nature, or side characters. I think I'll go check out his IMDB and see what he's done.

Yo wut

When is the show coming out? Who's in it?

source?

She still did quite a few though, didnt she? All the Kink shoots were good.

Because it was shit, the city didn't even look futuristic.

If I wanted to see an autistic retard scowling at everything in a normal urban setting I would just look in the mirror

Bad marketing and it probably could have used a little bit more dark humor like in the comics.

Because the only trailer I saw for this movie at all was in front of The Dark Knight Rises


Also thanks for reminding me to jerk off to OPs filename related

>If I wanted to see an autistic retard scowling at everything in a normal urban setting I would just look in the mirror

female crime bosses do exist, it's rather rare though

they are mostly latinas.

the whole movie was set in one fucking building, which didn't have any variety to it

well, that might not be the exact reason it failed, but that's my biggest complaint about the movie

Worked great for many movies

Right off the top of my head I can't think of any, but perhaps it was the case this time the one setting they had was too bland in and of itself.
Just out of curiosity though, could you name a few?

>Die Hard
>The Raid

yea I'd have liked a more open environment aswell desu

the raid, die hard, the thing, hateful 8

There's a list here, but like the other user said
imdb.com/list/ls008171822/

Die Hard
The Raid

lily labeau is one of the best pornstars

>Die Hard
>set in one building

kek

While I'm not going to simply write off the whole list, a lot of those movies appear to have a more psychological focus to them, which doesn't make an entirely apt comparison to an action movie like Dredd.

I really need to get around to watching The Raid, I've heard nothing but good things about it. Thank you both for reminding me.

>Moon (2009)

>The Mist (2007)

What the shit

yes... quite similar

Not a reason for a movie being bad you morons.

>It's all set in one room or -_location_-

>ywn lick her asshole

My post didn't say the movie was bad, just that I wish the setting had more variety.

>mfw scarcutie didn't les rape her

Piracy.

Not even a love scene for the two

Where I lived it was extremely hard to find a 2D showing of the movie, so I ended up not seeing it, even though I wanted to. Pretty much every single screening was 3D, and fuck that.

A madam running a small crime ring is fairly common.

If you had paid for Dredd in a theatre she would have to sell her body, shame on you.

i only saw it in 3D on tv, but the slowmotion blood splashes were nice

I like how none of the actors were bothered about being portrayed as racial stereotypes.

Just be yourself :)

Ikr.

But yeah, the film failed because it was too edgy for casual crowds. What do you expect from today's weaklings?

The most adult films you see being made right now are things like fucking prometheus and the thing prequel.

tumblr of course

it wouldn't hurt either, if they would've advertise it mentioning Cercei from GoT and Terminator

There are plenty of movies to watch, it didn't fail since it made its money back from DVD sales hence sequel plans.

You are just obsessed with tabloids talking about capeshit not realizing it's just marketing and not global opinion of a product.

>it wouldn't hurt either, if they would've advertise it mentioning Cercei from GoT and Terminator

were they though? there were scummy gangbangers of all races

> make a generalized statement.
> receive contextually nuanced counter argument.

Fuck off.

Yeah, but the black gangbanger one is specifically prevalent.

Engrish more

>hence sequel plans
Didn't urban pretty much say there wasn't going to be one?

Shut the fuck up, you stupid ass reply shows why you are a moron and can't appreciate good movies.

Do you need 10 shill threads as motivation to why a movie is good?

You are making stuff up about why the movie failed when in reality it was praised by viewers but had no marketing so second hand word of mouth came into play with the DVD sales

Seriously, end your life faggot
