    I notice the plane was incapable of gaining altitude just long enough for it to do a thrilling flyby of all the destruction. #2012

    This looks shopped. I can tell from some of the pixels and from seeing quite a few shops in my time. #2012

    Orson Welles' "War of the Worlds" radio broadcast looked more exciting than this "movie."

    And being a radio show, it didn't even have any images to look at. #2012

    I can get behind blowing cars up if they're Hyundais, Kias, and whatever my former boss is in.

    You know what, just him. If we can blow his sorry ass up that'd be cool. I could even spare the Hyundais. #2012

    I'd be afraid to get Michael Bay and Roland Emmerich in the same room, since they'd probably find a way to actually blow up the planet. #2012

    I think the pick-up is an FX Holden ute circa 1950. #madmax

    Could they have possible named their station anything more cliched than Sky News 4? I wonder if they have a Chopper 4... #madmax

    FWIW a few years ago when I took a tour of one of the Hollywood studios, I saw a display of a screen-used Holden Interceptor from "Road Warrior" and the blower was fake. #madmax

    Because in the future, when gas is scarce, what you really want is blowers the size of small houses. #madmax

    @logruszed: Of course blowers are needed in a dystopia, whoever gets to the nearly depleted resource first, wins. Then it’s off to the next nearly depleted resource.

    Remember too that Mad Max could shut off his blower for economical motoring. #madmax

    The Falcon XB smacks strongly of the AMC Javelin of the same era, to me. I've sometimes wondered how many drums of Bondo it'd take to sculpt up an Interceptor for the States.

    It'd have to be one mother of a clutch to drive the supercharger.

    If I can do it on a lathe, maybe then... Of course, I'd want to do it in a nice walnut. #madmax
