Re: What kind of man was Max inbetween MM2 and Thunderdome?

It would make sense that as things got worse that fighting moved to more up close personal hand to hand. So, 15 years later, you are better at fighting, hiding, or dead.

Even now, though, there are people that you meet and know nothing about and can tell which side of a fight you want them on.

Re: News on the Fury Road : "The Wasteland" & "Furiosa"

This is good news!

I find this curious..

"Furiosa will be twice the scale and size of Fury Road."

That sounds ambitious.

Re: New Mad Max movie.

I think the whole point of the internet is to make sure we all get to contribute our 2 cents. The nice thing about this one is that there is no advertising to claim its 1 cent! I remember how active everyone was with ideas and theories 10-15 years ago. I agree about Miller having control to continue...

Re: What kind of man was Max inbetween MM2 and Thunderdome?

Everyone has a different take on this. And usually it has to do with the information you have. I'm well aware of the later explanations and clarifications by Miller and others involved in the movies. As I explained, my original take on the timeline and events that happened or not had to do with only...

Re: What kind of man was Max inbetween MM2 and Thunderdome?

Thank you. I have had a lot of time to ponder the little details and see what background I put together for my favorite movies/stories. I do like films that don't lay out every little detail. it let's me, the viewer, add my perspective. From reading your posts over the years, I suspect you know what...

Re: New Mad Max movie.

Hey- I have, but it's been awhile. My concern is not necessarily when the story takes place as it is already established (sort of) that it's the story that matters, not the specific details. It could be set in our future and updated to reflect that without affecting the power of the story. Of course...

Re: New Mad Max movie.

I could see this as a possibility. View it as a reboot of the entire story arc with a setting starting twenty years from now. Far enough ahead that the dystopia has some time to develop so the story timeframe doesn't have to get shortened beyond rationality before we get close to Max's time. Ever no...

Re: What kind of man was Max inbetween MM2 and Thunderdome?

i don't think he was a good-guy traveling mercenary type. A survivor and someone to not mess with, yes, but he only did stuff because he was backed into a corner with no choice. Every single movie shows that. He wanted to quit the MFP and get away from the circus, but the deaths of Sprog and Jessie ...

GWAR...Fury Road and Wacky Racers.....

Ran across this tonight.
GWAR's Viking Death Machine

I first caught the Wacky Racers references (for us old people), then later on the Fury Road references.
