Headlining the Apocalypse

[David-Shiell]

Well, it's going to be a long nine months till the opening of Fury Road, so perhaps this may provide something to amuse everyone till then. Miller says that FR is set 45-50 years from next Wednesday. OK. Lets start filling in the space between now and then. The idea here is to string together headlines, news tickers, radio chatter, graffitti, etc to document what the board thinks the fall and apocalypse are going to look like. To keep things somewhat logical, it would work best if everyone kept posts chronological, with earlier posts influencing later posts.

Everything that has happened up til SDCC 2014 is set in stone. The original trilogy exists, we have all the old headlines, yadayadayada.

Somewhere between SDCC 2014 and a lonely hilltop in 2060, some things will have to happen.

Max Rocketansky is born.

The Main Force Patrol will be formed, and Max will become a member.

Max will marry/cohabitate with a woman and have a child with her.

Wife, child, MFP partner will be killed by gang.

Max takes his revenge and tears off into the outback.

The world goes mad.
