Judge Dredd 3D - Page 5 - Blu-ray Forum

My my that is some nice cover art.
I'm sad that Dredd didn't do well in the States.
It was a really good movie but for some reason you had to twist people's arms to see it. I told all my friends and they were blah about seeing it even though I knew they would love it. I want a sequel so bad it deserves one. Also a lot of theaters pulled this movie quick. I feel that it didn't even get the chance for "word of mouth" sales to kick in.

Yeah, this one wasn't meant for mainstream audiences IMO in theaters anyway, but I'm glad it was in theaters and in 3D.

I like the abstract red/black helmet cover. I really prefer the painting of Dredd and the city behind him. That looks epic.

Bump Thread:

Dredd 3D will release this Tuesday, January 8, 2013.

Amazon.com has it now for 19.99$ for the Blu Ray 3D, (with digital copy, ultraviolet). Usually these movies release for 24.99, so hopefully this is a new trend. List price is 39.99.

Karl Urban did a nice job as Dredd. Olivia Thirlby as his sidekick also well played. Good action and 3D.

Anyone get this on blu ray 3D yet or is it released everywhere Jan 8th?

It would be nice if it's a new trend, but I have a feeling it's not. This is the only Blu-ray release of Dredd in the U.S. Unlike most titles, there isn't a 2D only release and a 3D release, allowing a lower price for the 2D release and a higher price for the 3D. It's just the 3D release for Dredd, so if retailers want to encourage more first week sales with a lower price, they have to drop the price of the 3D version.

What would really be interesting is if this the direction Lionsgate is going to continue to go in with future titles - a single 2D/3D release instead of two separate releases. If that's the case, then we'll probably see more release week prices like this, at least for Lionsgate.

I didn't notice that, thanks for the info. Yeah, it would be great if they continue this trend with one release at a low price, but making sure the disc clearly says on the front "Works with a 2D HDTV for 2D version", so those who wanted the 2D version only won't avoid it, thinking it won't work.

2D fans may complain "I have to pay for the 3D version being included?", but with a 19.99 opening week price, hopefully they will be satisfied and possibly some of them, even consider 3D in the future.

Why? I'm talking about not releasing two completely separate sets just release one with either a 2D/3D disc or separate discs for each.

I just don't want 2d and 3d on the same disc.

Zivouhr · 01-06-2013, 11:36 AM

The only reasons I don't mind one disc instead of two is a potentially lower price and less waste.

The only reason I don't mind two discs instead of one? You can fit more bonus content if you have two discs. If it's the same price on release day, then two discs are better than one.

I wonder how many extras will be included on the 2D/3D version? Resident Evil Afterlife was able to fit a decent amount of extras on the one disc.

Mine ship yesterday, can't wait!!!!!

Bluray3d4life · 01-06-2013, 03:11 PM

Cant wait to see Dredd in 3d tuesday! This year looks really good for 3d, as for the technology seems to be improving with most new releases.

Piollo · 01-06-2013, 03:32 PM

Will be picking this up at BB this Tuesday.

Don't mind either way but a separate 2D is nice when somone else wants to watch. But they should stop releasing 2D only sets. seems a waste when the 3D has a 2D anyway.

boulder_bum · 01-06-2013, 11:54 PM

I didn't pay attention to this movie when it was in theaters, but it was well reviewed on Rotten Tomatoes and given a thumbs up for 3D on Blu-ray.com. As a result, at $19.99, this became a day one blind buy for me.

It looks cool from the trailer!

DVD only SKUs need to go first.

Rainhurt · 01-07-2013, 12:11 AM

The 3D is pretty good in this. Not very consistent though. My only real beef with the movie is the costume Dredd wears. The actor who plays him looks really tiny in the bulky over sized costume. Sometimes he looks ridiculous, like a kid in a Halloween costume or one of the midget Hobbit doubles in the lord of the Rings. Other than that it is a must own for 3D collectors.
