Dredd
Such a great movie that should've launched at least a trilogy, it was so much better than the Stalone movie, it kept the stakes relatively low, just a day-in-the-life sort of story, but did some great world-building. No "end of the world" stakes or anything silly, just some Judges trying to clear out a building, one apartment building in a mega-city.
Just an apropos of that, I'm at dinner with friends and one of them says that I had bad tastes in movies. His example of that was that I liked Dredd. I think the entire table turned on him at that point. I think that he said that The Raid did it better. I was like ... they're just different movies to me ... I LOVE The Raid. That being said, I really enjoyed Dredd. It's a damned tragedy Karl Urban didn't get to reprise the role.
