It made less than half of what Stallone's did in the 90s and that fill was considered a flop

We need two more sequels AND a television series. Why this movie bombed at the box office is baffling and bereft of any sense.

I am a 2000AD fan. I didnt mind the 3D or 2D, I think it was brilliant. Pity there not a follow up, or a series like "the wire".

Hate to drop a bomb in here, but I didn't really like Dredd.

I felt there was a distinct lack of excitement and fun to the action sequences. Apart from the mini-gun scene, the action was somewhat dull. The very similar The Raid: Redemption was superior in the action department.

But I thought the performances were great, and I liked the characters. But as an action movie, I felt the action was underwhelming.

i watched the special features on the dvd, and someone cant remember who said this is the first movie, either that or they were referring to the Sly rubbish! cant imagine there wont be another film, hopefully we wont have to wait quite so long for the sequel as we did for this!

The casting was perfect and it stayed true to the comic. This is the kind of movie that should be rewarded with a sequel. If they market a bad movie people will flock to it, so instead how about they try marketing a good movie like this one.

I agree with Sean, I would have prefered to have seen this in 2D (it took me a month and half to just find a theatre that had it, which was almost as bad as Cloud Atlas, I live in a metropolitan area and in 35 miles there was only 1 theatre that had it and it was only showing once) yeah, marketers and no 2D killed this , if only I could round them up and put them in a room, with Bane, and some white apes from John Cater (of Mars, to me it will always be of Mars, when I saw the JCM I knew exactly what it was and couldnt wait for it to come out)

@Andy Scarlett Indeed my friend. they really did fuck this film from the start with the pathetic effort they put into marketing the film. i mean come on! i live in the UK and didnt see any advertisements or commercials until a few weeks after the film came out in Cinema. Also only showing it in 3D was a BIG mistake. its a well known fact that people dont like paying for 3D (eventhough for this film it made it even better) because they really dont think there is any point. i reckon if the distributors had released the film in 2D they would have seen a massive increase in Box Office figures at that to the money they would have made if the film was marketed correctly and this would have been an absolute barn stormer in the Box Office.

As much as I love the Dredd lore and all things 2000 AD, I honestly think what caused the film to bomb was lack of marketing and also the lack of 2D showings. Hopefully it'll do better on DVD.

A great movie. But the marketing was horrid. I saw this on DVD today and absolutely loved it. When I checked the box office receipts though it did horribly so I doubt there will be a sequel. Too bad. It's very deserving. A d*mn good film.

I was surprised how much I enjoyed Dredd. It's a cool action movie, nice special effects, worth a watch.

I did not see The Hobbit yet, so I will not assume anything.
