Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome Drinking Game

Hello Max fans, Thunderdome turned 30 years old earlier this month. Not everyone's franchise favorite, it's not my favorite either for that matter, but it's the first Max flick I saw and I'll always hold it in a special regard. In recognition, or at least as an excuse to watch the movie again, I pre...

Re: Dystopian party props

I like the reference to carousel :D Lots of fun stuff you have there.
Great Atomic Cafe sign too, does it buzz when "Cafe" blinks on and off? :D
Every time I hear that in the movie I think that someone's getting a tattoo. In the pockyclypse, all lights buzz when blinking.

Weird audio on Thunderdome DVD?

Ever since deciding to make a Bartertown costume, I've played my old VHS of Thunderdome almost every night. I've almost got the damn show memorized. Now that I'm fooling with the DVD, I noticed there is a strange voice during the title card, just as Tina's "One of the Living" gets going. I...

Getting screengrabs

Couldn't find a topic on this one and was just curious what you all do for good screen grabs. I need some good pics from Thunderdome for my Bartertown costume, so right now I have VLC converting it to an MP4, then I'll play that in VLC and use it's snapshot feature for the pics. My preferred route w...

Re: It begins - my Bartertown Guard costume

WOW - thanks for the pic! Lots of ideas there.
And now I understand your mention of tanning, FWIW here's a place that sells them tanned already:

Re: Mad Max and Wez are married, oh my!

Awesome work, must have been lots of fun to wear :}

I just wondered... has anyone with a Wez costume cut a crossbow bolt in half, and rigged it to stick out of their arm? That'd be good for a laugh.

Re: It begins - my Bartertown Guard costume

It sounds like you have a great plan! So for the tails... the hide itself... is it a flat thing, that you can strap to your head? I'm just wondering what the anatomy of it actually is. Can't help much with tanning but I've done a little bit of the Tandy leather dying on a prior project and it's very...
