DREDD 2012; Question

Things like this actually give me hope...

Watching DREDD (2012) Sunday evening. My household watches this movie about 1x month...its mandatory.

1) The scene where Mama & gang blasts Dredd with the Gatling guns.
2) Dredd uses his handgun selecting "Hi-Ex"
3) Hi-Ex blows a hole in the exterior wall of Peach Trees
4) Dredd & co jump out of the hole and into free fall.
5) Dredd & co land on skate boarding ramp area and live.

My 15 yo son asks: I've always wondered, when Dredd escapes by blasting a hole in the wall, and jumping out of the building, how did he know what was out there?

How did Dredd know this was a survivable option?

It gives me hope because it indicates my son's brain is working. On some level it's actually working.

This movie kicks so much ass, really hoping a sequel gets green lit or I read some talk about making a series out of it.

To answer your question, he doesn't he just knows staying where they are at any longer means they'll be punched full of holes, so either die that way or have some tiny chance at staying a live a tiny bit longer.

Wait? Wait for me to change my mind? No wait for her to shoot you.

btw, it's not possible that they knew the layout of the building inside and out before they went in? :lol:

My favorite line was by Judge Lex: You know what Mega City One is, Dredd? It's a fucking meat grinder. People go in one end. And meat comes out the other. All we do is turn the handle.

I remember seeing this in theaters not expecting much and it was brilliant. Did not expect as much violence but it was great

Possible, yes. But that scenario qualifies as facts not in evidence. And that, imo, is inconsistent with the "flow" of the movie.

And its -all good- as they say. I'm not getting bogged down on this, the point here is that my son's brain is connected to his eyeballs and is then spitting out stuff that indicates the brain part is functioning.
