massive spider posted:Are there any examples of a movie which bombed initially being redeemed financially through a sequel? I mean a sequel would theoritically function as an advertisement for the original as well, but I dont know if that would play out enough to make it worthwhile. I think Austin Powers is one example. I know the second one made more in first three days of release than the first one did in it's entire theatrical run.

meatsaw posted:Cut off from HQ, locked in, outnumbered - the totally dire situation so many movies wind up with - and it's still business as usual for him. I think that was the exact moment the film really won me over. For John McClane, it was an impossible situation for him to overcome. For Judge Dredd, it's just Tuesday. I mean, you get that total vibe at the end of the film, as he walked out of Peachtrees, that he was just going to mount his Lawgiver, call Control, and proceed to the next crime.

Hewlett posted:Yeah, we never really see Dredd overtly punish someone for non-violent crimes; he's mostly fighting the violent thugs in the beginning, only waiting to use deadly force until after they run over the "innocent," and then there's all the stuff with Ma-Ma's thugs in Peach Trees. Don't forget, he only stunned those two juvies when he had justification to kill them.

And she mowed down men and women alike in hunting the Judges. Her motive for not torturing Anderson didn't really seem fabricated. She took out his eyes and replaced them with implants.
