Default Mad Max




Well I figure there are a few Mad Max fans here at subsim and there is no thread
yet about the series and the new film currently in the works "Mad Max Fury Road".

So anything Mad Max goes talk about the old films talk about the new film talk about the cars whatever.

I try to avoid hyping up a movie so long as Fury Road has the same carnage as the previous Mad Max films and does not go nuts with CGI I will be pleased.

Here is a link to the internet movie database page for "Fury Road":
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1392190/

Some vehicles that will appear in Fury Road:

I arrived late to the Mad Max party, prolly 12-15 years ago but then loved them - even Tina didn't spoil it for me. I tried when I was a teen but got bored easily with a scruffy guy in a cobbled together car or bike and just didn't get it.

Didn't know there was another coming out, hopefully out won't be to ruined with CGI and a crap cast.

Mad Max movies were good but Mel Gibson was better in the Lethal Weapon series

The top vehicle with all of the speakers on it I wonder what that is for.

Remember the dog that Max has in the Road Warrior? Well that dog was from a local pound and they trained him for the film
but he really disliked loud noises and would relive himself when he got disturbed so they made special ear plugs for him one
of the camera operators ended up adopting the dog when they finished filming.

Mad Mel lost my respect with his outburst while drunk a few years ago.


And I was a HUGE fan of his work.

He has enuff money to just go away now.

Mel Gibson is not going to be in the new one and I don't really care what he or any actor does in their personal life
I don't need a role model I need to be entertained.

When I see a movie I'm watching the characters.Even with all of his money Gibson clearly is not a happy person.
I think many people are good actors but are idiots in every other respect.

The first Mad Max was a good movie. Nothing like a can of Dinky Di Dog food for dinner.

Mel has been in several great movies but he has gone off the deep end lately. Maybe success does that to some people.

I see it differently. Back in 1970 there were huge arguments over why the Beatles broke up. I said that it's simple: The same gene that makes people creative also makes them mercurial - alternately feeling superior, inferior, depressed, hyperactive, and sometimes all at the same time. The more talented someone is, the crazier they are.

Yoko ono was the reason for the break up.

Dad is at the top of the thread he looks a bit shocked.

@AVG Max ate Dinky Di in the second movie The Road Warrior.I do not recall a scene in Mad Max where he eats dog food but I could be wrong.
