There may still be a sequel; it's not unprecedented for a box office failure to spawn a franchise. Anyone remember highlander. The key will be overseas success which is possible since it debuted at no 1 in Britain and the character is popular in Europe. Also there could be profitable sales in home video. Yeah the us box office is weak, but the filmmakers knew Dredd was going to be a niche product. Building the fan support thru subsequent weeks and home video could build real enthusiasm for a sequel in a few years. Besides more and more people are just passing on seeing movies in theaters with ticket prices being so high.
