    It's just footage from the 2 existing trailers put together, nothing new.

    Really looking forward to this film though.

    Looks good but hope that there is still a lot of touch up to do. There are still some VERY dodgy flame effects

    What age rating will this be? At least 15s anyway right?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,810 ✭✭✭Mackman


    looks like absolute carnage. (good thing) I hope there is a decent story in the middle somewhere

    I recommend the original trilogy.

    Re-makes are almost certain to be shìte in comparison.

    its not a remake though :)

    Personally the first one is my favourite. Great cars and even better characters!

    The second is very similiar to the new film out in may. Post apocalyptic setting, i can see why many prefer it to the first.

    Don't waste your time with the third, awful film.

    I think it looks rubbish but I wasn't a big fan in the first place.

    The above are words of great truth.

    The new one is rated 18's, so should be good.

    I must be the only person in the world that likes 'Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome' For me the first film is the worst. Never understood what people saw in it.

    As for this new one, it looks dumb, IMHO. If I'm not mistaken, Charlize Theron has a robot arm in it? The world is gone to crap, but she has a robot arm? WTF.

    Yeah, my order of preference is 2nd, 3rd, 1st. Even if the 3rd was a triumph of style over substance.

    I've never really been able to get into the first one to be honest. The second and third are pretty good though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,641 ✭✭✭Teyla Emmagan


    I can't wait :)

    The first Mad Max was terribly grim to be fair. Far too much misery, rape and brutality for my tastes. Then you add Tina Turner and a thunderdome and suddenly it's fantastic. Can't even remember the third one.

    Mel was pretty cool before he became a hardline religious bigot.

    Thunderdome was the third one.

    I can't wait for this, the tone and setting just pushes all kinds of buttons for me. Its the original director, so hopefully he remembers just what made the originals so unique.

    I just watched the trailer, I'm already hard....

    THe 'recieved wisdom' is that one is the best for the simple reason that few people saw it and it's 'serious' to the point of dour and thus arty. It's just a sub Sam Peckinpah micro budget exploitation flick, and not a particularly good one. Mad Max 2 unleashes the bonkers and is chock full of memorable characters and facinating world building.
    3 is problematic in that it reaches for a PG audience in an R rated world but it's still highly memorable, how many people still quote 'two men enter, one man leaves!'

    The new film looks for all the world like a reimagined mash up of 2 and 3 with Charlize Theron sporting a robot hand in a world where people kill each other for a cup full of petrol, which seems incongruous . I did like the trailer I have to say, and it does suggest the anarchic, comic book sensibility and bonkers energy of Mad Max2, but I've been stung by a well put together trailer before, so I'll remain skeptical, but cautiously hopeful.
