Quotes / Dredd

Go To

America is an irradiated wasteland. Within it lies a city.
Outside the boundary walls, a desert. The Cursed Earth.
Inside the walls, a cursed city - stretching from Boston to Washington, D.C. - an unbroken, concrete landscape.
800 million people living in the ruin of the old world, and the mega-structures of the new one.
Mega Blocks. Mega Highways. Mega City One.
Convulsing. Choking. Breaking under its own weight.
Citizens in fear of the street, the gun, the gang.
Only one thing fighting for order in the chaos – the men and women of the Hall of Justice.
Juries. Executioners. Judges.

Judge Dredd: Inhabitants of Peach Trees, this is Judge Dredd. In case you people have forgotten, this block operates under the same rules as the rest of the city. Ma-Ma's not the law. I am the Law.

Dredd: Been wondering when you'd remember you'd left your helmet behind.
Anderson: Sir, a helmet can interfere with my psychic abilities.
Dredd: Think a bullet might interfere with them more.

Dredd: You ready Rookie?
Anderson: Yes sir.
Dredd: You don't look ready.

Dredd: You ready?
Anderson: Yeah.
Dredd: You look ready.

Chief Judge: What happened here?
Dredd: Drug bust.
Chief Judge: Looks like you've been through it.
Dredd: Perps were uncooperative.

Judge Lex: 1 million credits.
Ma-Ma: A million?
Judge Lex: You have a problem with the judge. You know who he is?
Ma-Ma: No.
Judge Lex: I do. 1 million.

I started out as Eomer
And next I played McCoy
But once I put that helmet on
It sparked my greatest joy
A futuristic square-jawed judge
By far my favourite role
Everyone loved me
Why haven't they sent me
Back to the blocks to patrol?

We need to make Dredd 2
It's already been too long
We are wasting the potential
Of this franchise and it's wrong
Make Dredd 2
It's imperative to try
For soon they'll just reboot again
And cast some other guy.

Mega City One is overflowing with scum
It's almost as bad as New Jersey
There are plenty more villains who need to be judged
And can't we do better than Cersei?
We're well behind the schedule
We should be on part 3
There are follow ups for Iron Man
And Thor, so why not me?

It's time to make Dredd 2
I'll never let it go
You'd already have seen it
But our grosses were too low
Make Dredd 2
This time we'll be a hit
I promise if it's greenlit
Then she'll show a little tit.

People thought my Dredd was lame
And maybe that's the case
I wouldn't keep my helmet on
I like to show my face
The remake finally comes along
It's decent, I admit
It makes me realise mine
Was just a silly piece of shit

So let them make Dredd 2
It's sure to entertain
The only thing it won't have
Is the lovely Diane Lane.

Make Dredd 2
I'm dreading Star Trek 3
So, can't we make Dredd 2 instead?
I'll star in it for free

Make Dredd 2 (Make Dredd 2)
Make Dredd 2 (Make Dredd 2)
Make!
Dredd!
2!

Make Dredd 2!
