    Word is George Miller finally woke up to himself and made the right decision to film Fury Road in Australia.

    How can you have a Mad Max film not done in Oz #madmax

    Feral Kid uses steering wheel mounted laptop to hack into 2010 Volvo S60, changes argument from - to +, detects / automatically KILLS pedestrians. Falcon Henne co-stars as BalooneyCaptain. ToeCutter found to be victim of faulty floormat, that cop with the voice box (?) gets cameo as drag queen singing Cher's "Do you Believe"

    Hilarity ensues.

    I don't know. The third installment (Thunderdome) had a few continuity gaffs in it, most notably the reappearance of The Gyrocaptain. After the death of Papagallo, he had become the leader of the tribe as they headed north. Did he suddenly abandon that gig to live in the desert and fly a modified Australian crop dusting plane? (I forget the exact name of the model, but the plane is an Australian design.) To me, that one always felt tacked on in comparison to the first two. However, it is nice to see that George Miller will be producing this one also, as the originals were his brianchild as well. #madmax

    ...As for the Road Warrior, that was the last we ever saw of him. He lives now, only in our memories...

    Everything tacked on after that is just offensive and stupid, not for what the other sequels are or could be, but for what they come after: one of the most perfectly appropriate endings in cinema history. #madmax

    Now look, when you make a series of movies as iconic and influential as Mad Max, you really enter into a deal with the auidience that you won't come back years later and destroy their attachment to the originals. And you know, break a deal; face the wheel.

    Anyway, Thunderdome was not great. Actually, it was worse than not great. But it did give us the following classic Joe Bob Briggs commentary:

    NO NO NO.

    God damn it Hollywood, what the hell is wrong with you people? You're going to fuck up Mad Max now? It's bad enough we're going to have to see fucking Gerard Butler play Snake Plissken when Kurt Russel is alive and well, but now this? ANY sequel to this move that doesn't have Mel Gibson in it is going to be a complete waste. I don't care how redeeming the rest of it is (even though it won't be), Mel IS Mad Max, and that's it. And why not use him? He's still a good looking dude and damn fine actor (and a box office draw)... and rich enough at this point to fund a lot of the development. AND it would be potentially cool to see Max that far along in post-apocalyptic Austrailia or whatever. AND Gibson is talented enough to make sure that whatever is produced doesn't turn out to be complete crap. But he isn't interested you say? Oh well, then that probably means your idea is crap then. And that you should just fucking name it something else. Fuck. I don't get it. #madmax

    @Thomas Paladino: Mel isn't Mad Max. Mel is just plain mad. A mad, raving anti-Semite. Assuming the studio could coax Gibson off his looney farm and recast him as Mad Max, the following would occur. He would insist on writing the script and directing it. He'd rename Mad Max as Mad Apostle Matthew, and instead of venturing across the sands of a post-apocalyptic Australian Outback, Mad Max 4 would take place in the desert of Negev, where Mad Matthew would gallivant about in his fortified chariot, fending off the nefarious Pharisees (Jews) and various Gays with his sawed-off crossbow, his wits, and his incredible chariot-driving skills, as he tried to spread the Gospel to the wayward Israelites and avenge his BFF, Jesus. The script will be written and acted entirely in Vedic Sanskrit.

    PS: "You're going to fuck up Mad Max now?" Need I remind you of Beyond the Thunderdome? Tina Turner?! #madmax

    MM4? Why? Didn't they kill it with Thunderdome's potential of hope at the end? We liked the fatality of it all as shown in MM and Road Warrior. Maybe they should do a prequel to see how we really got the MM moment. #madmax

    Part of me loves this idea. I've been following the MM4 saga for a couple years, and it still excites me.

    It also scares the hell out of me. The seminal TV shows and movies of my life are Speed Racer, The Dukes Of Hazzard, and the Mad Max/Road Warrior. Two of the three have been masticated beyond recognition by Hollywood. Must the last vestige of my life's automotive fantastication be summarily destroyed by a nine-figure budget?

    I am not hopeful, which fits perfectly within the dystopian post-apocalyptic point of view of the series. #madmax
