Looks good...
Mad Max - ( New Window )
We don't need another hero

Is this a continuation of the original trilogy?  
Matt M. : 7/27/2014 8:27 pm : link
Or a reboot? Or prequel?
I want to say  
bigblue5611 : 7/27/2014 8:31 pm : link
It's a continuation but I could be wrong
Same director  
UConn4523 : 7/27/2014 8:53 pm : link
I believe too. Love Mad Max!
Looks awesome  
UConn4523 : 7/27/2014 8:58 pm : link
by the way. Must see for me.
Hmmmm

I didn't hear enough dialogue to make a judgement. Just a bunch of action. Which isn't terrible. But I hope the story line is well written.
Can't wait

Tom Hardy seems the petfect Max

As UConn said, it's the same guy that wrote/directed the first three so I'm thinking it should be right up there with those
it's  
Mr. Nickels : 7/28/2014 1:38 am : link
a continuation and a sequel. Honestly I wouldn't have minded a reboot.
Watched The Road Warrior (aka Mad Max 2) yesterday

Seriously one of the best films ever made.
One movie enters  
montanagiant : 7/28/2014 8:19 am : link
4 come out
It was initially...  
Chris in Philly : 7/28/2014 8:29 am : link
going to be a sequel. But they ran into so many problems (financing, weather, civil unrest where they were filming, and the coup de grace - Gibson going off the rails) that it morphed into a reboot.

Don't expect a lot of dialogue and story. Miller apparently shot this from a storyboard instead of a script.
I thought I read that it's  
Motley Blue : 7/28/2014 8:33 am : link
somewhere between The Road Warrior & Thunder Dome. IDK.

The Interceptor (the car) gets destroyed in The Road Warrior and it's mentioned as one of the last remaining ones in that film, so maybe it is just a complete reboot since it's seen here getting destroyed again.
Thunder Dome

was a real let down after Road Warrior. Hoepfully they dont rely too heavily on CGI in this new one.
I didn't mind Thunder Dome  
Motley Blue : 7/28/2014 8:52 am : link
I've still watched it dozens of times, but it lacks the things Mad Max & The Road Warrior had. Mainly the insanity & brutality of those first two films.
I actually don't want  
UConn4523 : 7/28/2014 9:01 am : link
or need a lot of dialogue. The cinematography alone will make this worth seeing. Add in a good cast and a Director with a proven track record and that's all I can ask.

This looks desolate and absolutely brutal. Depicts Road Warrior very well.

Miller apparently went old school on this quite a bit. Lots of real stunt work and less cgi than you'd expect.
Yeah if that trailer is any indication  
UConn4523 : 7/28/2014 9:14 am : link
there won't be much CGI other than explosions and some background. The stunts seem legit.
I'm digging it.  
Motley Blue : 7/28/2014 9:25 am : link
Gonna go watch the trailer for a 4th time.
Scream Factory  
BIG FRED : 7/28/2014 10:25 am : link
just announced they are putting out a Special edition blu ray of Mad Max .I just bought the blu ray box set a few months ago too but the good thing about scream factory is there will be a ton of extras
Looks great

Road Warrior

is one of the best movies about nothing ever made. Great visuals. Absolutely devoid of any real depth. I can't think of a better movie with such a simple plot.

Thunderdome was a rather cheesy movie and easily the worst of the trilogy. The first two had quality indy feel. Thunder had Hollywood written all over it.
