First we do not get on the new earth until after 1000 year reign. Second the Judgement is after the 1000 year reign. The People that denied GOD will then be thrown into the Lake of Fire.
REV 20:7 When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison 8 and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of the earth--Gog and Magog--to gather them for battle. In number they are like the sand on the seashore. 9 They marched across the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of God's people, the city he loves. But fire came down from heaven and devoured them. 10 And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
REV 20:11 Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. Earth and sky fled from his presence, and there was no place for them. 12 And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books. 13 The sea gave up the dead that were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and each person was judged according to what he had done. 14 Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death. 15 If anyone's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.
REV 21:1 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. 2 I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. 4 He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away."

I haven't time right now to cite chapter and verse, but this is my understanding:
Since the time of Christ's resurrection, there is no longer a waiting place. To be absent from the body is to be present with Christ, either at the first resurrection (rapture) for the faithful or the second resurrection (at the White Throne Judgment) for the unfaithful after the millennial reign. Basically, when we die, we leave the constraints of time which we were born into and pass immediately through eternity to our eternal position. The only possible exception to this would be Tribulation Martyrs, who will be in Heaven without their bodies for a time.

In my opinion, you have things a little mixed up. AFter the Great Tribulation, which is the end of the 7 year End Times period, Christ will come down from heaven to earth (the current earth) to fight the battle of Armageddon. After that battle is fought, and the false prophet and Antichrist are thrown into the lake of fire, Satan will be captured and chained up in the Abyss or bottemless pit for 1000 years. During this 1000 years, Christ will set up His kingdom in the current earth, and Christians will be His coheirs and will be seated on thrones of authority. We will reign with Christ for those 1000 years on this earth. At the end of that time, Satan will be loosed for a breif time, will gather another army, and will come up against Christ at Jerusalem. Just as Satan and his army are preparing to attack, Almighty God will speak from heaven and the entire army will be burned up by fire from heaven. Satan will be captured again, and this time he goes to the lake of fire, where the false prophet and Antichrist were sent.
We then have the Great White Throne Judgment, where the dead, those who did not accept Christ, appear before God to be judged. Christians will not appear at this judgment because we are not dead, but alive with Christ. All the others, the dead, will raise from the earth, from hell and from the sea-wherever they are-to be judged. Then the current heaven and earth pass away because a new heaven and earth have been created. We will then go to the new earth, the New Jerusalem, to live with God and Christ forever.
So, yes, people are in hell during the 1000 year reign of Christ, just as people are in hell now. People will remain in hell until the Great White Throne judgement, after which they will be found guilty, for none of them will have accepted Christ, and they will be thrown into the lake of fire. Hell is not eternal, but the punishment is. Punishment, which is the payment for sin without Jesus Christ, starts in hell and continues in the lake of fire. The conditions are likely about the same.

I believe that we are judged first. Then believers go to heaven which will be on the new earth. And unbelievers will go to hell. The 1000 years is only the beginning of heaven and eternity!

most of them are wrong the thousand years means we're judged already . hell don't start until the thousand years are over . Jesus is getting the saints the first time and only time. after the reign is over Jesus will lay his reign down for G-D will be all and in all we come back the dead will stand before G-D satan ,antichrist and all the evil they are judged according to what they have done

At the end of the world, all of the ones who have accepted christ will either go to heaven or the new earth. Everyone will be judged on judgement day. Those who didnt accept christ or go against him, they will be in hell. I dont know anything about 1000yrs. But in the new heaven, there will be peace and happiness, nothing to be judged on!

When Peter started his marketing for Christianity in this pagan world, He had to make(threat?) such statements that nonbelievers will go to hell.
"Hey Beleive in Jesus or go to hell"
Now answer me by touching your Heart.
1) Will God give heaven to a person just he beleived in the name Jesus and not doing any good things?
2) Wont God accept the person who has done good things to people and lived a good life but from other religion? ( God says:- You dint pray me, you dint take the holy bath, so I am giving you hell!! ???)
3)Can you say "All Cristians are good people since they beleive in Jesus"?
4) Is God ( No matter what is his name) limited to religion?
5) Will God judge based on his activities or based on his religion?

I declare myself Christian. I learned about such things a long time ago and now have forgotten most of the parts. Sorry.
I have heard different explanation based on verses, and based on visions (that they say they have throught personal revelation), but I don't think they should be accurate because they don't happen yet.
Why bother? Present life is more important, rather than speculating about the future life which is still uncertain in details.

Hell is hades, the underworld where every soul goes after death awaiting the return of Jesus, and then, as Revelations lays out, they all will be judged according to the book of life.
Hell, Hades, Sheol, is NOT the judgement of fire. It's kind of like a holding tank.
