'''Walter The Wobot:''' Not Judge ''Dwedd''. Walter say Judge '''Dwedd'''. }}
* [[Growing the Beard]]: "The Cursed Earth" is the story where the world really comes together, and was the first of the epic stories that lasted about half a year.
* [[Harsher in Hindsight]]: One villain in an early story (from 1977) destroys the World Trade Center.
* [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]: The ''Democracy Now'' quote at the top of the page seems a lot less like a convincing argument since Mayor of London, [[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass|Boris Johnson]], rescued a woman from a mugging that he happened upon while [http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/8340865.stm cycling past]<ref> Note unlike certain other cities, the Mayor of London does not have automatic 24 hour bodyguards, it really was just him riding up</ref>. It seems an elected representative can work just fine.
* [[Lawful Neutral]]: Dredd himself, but apparently this is debated in some quarters.
* [[Magnificent Bastard]]: PJ Maybe.
* [[Moral Event Horizon]]: Dredd, on orders from above, crosses the moral event horizon to pretty much terrorize pro-democracy organizers in order to ruin a planned peaceful demonstration against the Judge system. The biggest moment of which is when he threatens to take the son of a man whose pro-democracy wife Dredd killed, and who was set to speak at the rally, and hand him over to the academy to turn him into a Judge (via indoctrination that borders on outright brainwashing) unless he denounces the rally and no-shows it.

Line 35:
** Though this isn't necessarily individual to the movie, as this is a philosophical argument in [[Real Life]] as well.
** This also creates a pretty gaping plot hole, as Rico and Dredd being genetically identical is the entire point on which the plot turns.
* [[
** Chief Justice Fargo played by Max von Sydow, presumably in a case of [[Money, Dear Boy]].
** '''Ilsa''' Hayden played by [[Joan Chen]]?
