Just watched the trailer for the new Mad Max movie - it looks f*cking mental!!

I have never seen a mad max film!!

Recommended?

Funny I'd never seen a MadMax film - bought the trilogy for £8. Its total Donkey. Crap dialogue, predictable story, passable action. I was also surprised at how Homo-erotic it was given Gibson's past utterances.

Went to the charity shop.

MOD: I've moved this to the Film forum. Please note the different forum charter here.

I like how there's a sad face beside the thread title despite most people here now really looking forward to the film :pac:

I've been strung along by Mad Max-like trailers before, these 2 are still some of the best trailers I've ever seen for a film. I couldn't have been more anxious to see what was to become of a future world. Still hurts, lol

Never forget.

Nope, no Mel. Think that ship sailed with his drunken sectarian rant.

He deserves a second chance we have all done stupid things when we were drunk.

Yeah tell it to the folks in Hollywood, I personally would love nothing better than to see Gibson behind the wheel of a Pursuit Special again!

For anyone who still reads magazines, the latest Starburst is a Mad Max special. Lots of great stuff in it including a nice retrospective of the films.

Really looking forward to the film, not long to go now!

Tremendously excited for this & hope the final product is as bonkers and unrelenting as the trailers suggest. The promotional material is beginning to get a little much so might just take a break from watching it.

On a related side-note: is there any sign that a re-release of the original trilogy might find their way on Blu-Ray? I know there's already a boxset, but apparently it's a lazy boxing of the individual discs, with no consistent transfer and little in the way of extras.

I hope Hugh Keys-Byrne has a big part in this movie, great for all us hardcore fans of of the first one!

Yep,he was a great villian as The Toecutter in the first one.Playing a totally different character here though,I think unless they reveal during the movie that Toecutter survived and it is him.

A final trailer is out and props to whoever has been editing them: while there's yet more footage in this trailer (including a partial scene), I'm still broadly unsure what the heck the plot of this is. It's mostly just road carnage, so maybe that's really all there is!

Saw the new trailer before 'The Avengers' last night and it still looks as dumb as a box of frogs.

It really looks like they've just taken the Mad Max car chases and turned it up to 11.

Slightly disappointed to here Charlize Theron speak with a strong American accent. For a fan of the originals it will take away from it if most of the actors don't speak Aussie English!

Booked tickets for that, should be fun, though disappointing Thunderdome isn't being screened. It ain't that bad!

The trailers look a bit color naff. Let's hope they put a bit more colour
into the final film. Particularly with that tight little buggy wearing all
the spikey trademark's of the cars that ate paris.

PressRun · 02-05-2015 7:45pm

I don't really have any idea what the plot is supposed to be from the trailers, all I know is that it looks bloody mental and I want to see it!

RedemptionZ · 03-05-2015 2:31am

I would assume it involves Max accompanying Theron's character delivering a payload of sorts and then escape whatever gang is following them. I'd guess it will be more style than substance but I'm optimistic.

Its the Australian outback, everything is just red and orange.

I've been avoiding the trailers since the first one but I assumed that Theron's character was transporting the woman we see in the trailer and as such I imagine that they'll team up with Max at some stage.
