I thought both of the originals were fun movies. Dredd is one of my favorite Stallone movies(only behind Demolition Man and Rambo).

The Phantom is my favorite Billy Zane movie.

I'm not upset over this really, but I just hope the movies are as good or maybe even better then the originals.

Well, it wouldn't be hard to make a Dredd movie better than the Stallone version.

Just don't include Rob Schneider and bingo.

But I agree, those two movies were pretty good on their own and a couple of my favorite movies.

Armande Asante is awesome as hell.

It would be like them remaking the Super Mario Bros. movie, as terrible a movie as it is. Damn is it awesome and fun as hell to watch.

Hopefully the movies will be good if they do go through with it.

So long as they don't turn Dredd into it's equivalent of Punisher: Warzone

Edit: Re-reading the article from Super Hero Hype.

The people who brought us the worst shaky-cam movie(28 weeks Later) piece o' crap this side of Cloverfield will be bringing Judge Dredd to us.

Yeah, my low hopes sunk lower. On one hand, they gave us 28 Weeks Later, which sucked balls. Dyson type suckage.

But then again they did bring us Sunshine which rocked hardcore.

Personally I liked the Stallone Dredd movie, the best thing about it was the gun & the ABC robot warrior the bad points however were the fact they didnt have there helmets on most of the time & Rob Scheinder was being well...Rob Scheinder.

The only problem I have with the reboot of Dredd is who would be perfect for the role?

and who can say "I AM THE LAW!" better than stallone?

But I hope the remake will feature Judge Death & the dark judges, I loved them in the comics.

Judge Dredd is by its nature a very different movie to 28WL, so I expect it to be shot differently.

There are some rules you don't break with Dredd, and one of them is that you don't ever see his face. This is something they screwed up with the Stalone movie, and something I hope they get right this time.

I'm surprised that this is the first some people have heard of it, since there's been a Dredd trilogy on paper for a couple of years now.

It's expected to be:
1: Origin story/Rico
2: Apocalypse War
3: Kraken/Necropolis
According to what I've heard.

Yeah, we'll have to wait for the Flash Gordon movie, Mandrake the Magician and Lothar movies before we can get us a Defenders of the Earth movie.

Heres hopin they dont screw up ;)^

They could pull off Phantom easily either way I think, reboot or sequel. Wasnt the jist of it that the family line were Phantoms?

Honestly, I don't think the movie would work without showing his face. A movie going audience wouldn't be able to get a connection to him otherwise. Same goes for Halo.

Regardless, I loved the original movie. Even Rob Shnieder or however you spell it. And the gun was tight as Hell.

Am I the only weirdo who's mentioning Diane Lane as Judge Hershey was hawt?

Diane Lane is hot. Period.

Sending Dredd to prison with a helmet on would be kinda dumb :lol:

I think he was just pointing out that the Phantom was in DOTE.

Clancy Brown for Dredd anyone?

Phantom was ball of poop but Judge Dredd had its moments plus it was an awesome game on Sega Genesis

I forgot how bad his mush mouth was.

Wow that was taken out of context. They cut halfway into what he was saying. Which is "BECAUSE YOU BETRAYED THE LAW!"

And honestly I love his outburst in the court scene.
