      @@anthonyjenkins2001 In the original comic, there was a story were Dredd was captured by some criminal gang and they told him to remove the helmet. When he did, his eyes were covered with a "censored" label and the criminals were shocked, mumbling "He shouldn't live with these eyes, we should kill him", but Dredd took the opportunity while they were stunned and grabbed a gun and killed them. Nobody knows what's going on with Dredd's eyes, that's why the helmet doesn't come off.

    I have to correct you on your video. Along with the DNA tag, the Stallone Movie explains that the Law Giver has two magazines. One is standard bullets, the other is a forward mounted magazine that has rings and caps that modify the bullets into the requested round. Its why that Law Giver can run out of one ammunition type and not others. Sorry, I'm just a huge Dredd fan. The explanation is in a Still of the Law Giver during the trial scene.

    • @Getpojke
      @Getpojke 10 месяцев назад +5

      Also the dial on the Mk I wasn't to do with range, it was to choose & show which ammunition was chosen. The Judges also had access to other weapons (as well as the ones mounted on their Lawmaster bikes). The coolest for me was the Stub-Guns used in the Apocalypse War, these could cut through pretty much anything though prone to overheating & exploding. Then there was the Lawrod, a sniper type rifle. Usually carried in a holster on their bikes, especially on trips to the Cursed Earth. Last in the standard load-out & replacing the Lawrod, was the Widowmaker 2000; a stock-less, pistol grip riot shotgun. It was magazine fed with an automatic feed. Dredd thought it was "...Effective" when used against zombies. Also been a huge fan of Dredd since his appearance in Prog 2 back in 1977...so I'm not much younger than he is in the current progs; though he's in better shape.

      You're absolutely correct. Not only does judge dredd have separate magazines for his lawgiver, the city that he lives in comes up with new technology . When judge dredd had to fight the dark judges, the special judge unit created exorcism bullets. That was the only way he was able to kill the dark judges.

    The Lawgiver Mk. 2 in the 2012 Dredd film feeds from two magazines. One for standard ammunition that can be rapidly reloaded from the firing grip, and the second forward-mounted magazine that has the special ammo fed from two independent columns (Note the translucent window to visually inspect both stacks).

    In XXX, the main character, Xander, has a magum revolver with a 6 round capacity. But instead of loading it all with regular ammunitions, he loads it with different types of ammunitions which include tranquiliser, explosive, radio Jammer, fake blood and armor piercing. Xander selects which to fire by rotating the drum until the desired type is aligned with the Barrel.
    In Skyfall, James Bond receives a new Walther PPK with a biometric scanner in the grip. If someone else tries to use the gun the safety jams and it doesn't fire

    One gun you forgot that's like the law giver in it's ammo versatility, extra features and high technology load out is from the movie "The Fifth Element" the ZF1 assault weapon.
    Tactical paint schemes optional, adjustable handle for righties and lefties.
    Multiple modes of fire rates, all coupled with a replay feature, all that is needed is to land one shot on target, and replay send each following shots to the same location with such accuracy the wielder need not even point the gun in the same direction as the initial replay shot.
    Also has an arrow launcher with optional poison and gas heads.
    Rocket launcher.
    Net launcher.
    And a freeze blast that works like a flame thrower only it instantly freeze the sprayed target.
    Only other option is a manual self destruct device rigged to the red button on the bottom of the gun

    The two Dredd films are such a shocking opposite of eachother. The Stallone one is BY FAR the better looking film, the effort they made to set dress and build the costumes and bikes and guns and the ABC warrior... .Its an awesome film for the comic fans visually.... storywise.... the removal of the helmet, ruining the look of Rico, Dredd randomly having a tag-along he wouldnt have tolerated.
    One the flip side though, the story of the Karl Urban Dredd film was great, with brilliant character work, but looked APPALLING. small, grimey, obviously rubber shoulder pads and badge over a motocross jacket, the Lawmaster was a stupid-looking little sports bike that had absolutely no presence or authority to it, the helmets were stupidly oversized, the city was literally just a modern day city, no towering hab blocks or multi-level roads... I cant fathom what they were thinking with it. It legit made me angry how crappy it looked lol.

    • @Dovah_Slayer
      @Dovah_Slayer Год назад +2

      actually the lawmaster was changed to actually be steerable so i can forgive it (the 1995 one was completely unsteerable so they didn't really have any way to make good vehicular chase scenes) also i'd like to point out that the shoulder pads are a much better size compared to the bulky (and tactically detrimental) ones from both the OG comics and the 1995 movie though they could've been made to look slightly better

    You missed something from the 1967 book "Logan's Run":
    From the Wikipedia article:
    "Logan 3 is a Deep Sleep Operative (also called a Sandman) whose job is to terminate Runners using a special weapon called simply "the gun", a handgun with selectable ordnance keyed to self-destruct if touched by an individual who is not the proper owner. Runners are most terrified of a weapon called the "Homer", which homes in on body heat and ignites every pain nerve in the body, killing the target."
