I don’t need to anything beyond the clips I saw on TV which reveal the premise ... a female Mad Max. What else do you need to know?

Well didn’t CT star in a live version of AEON FLUX ? ( Actually, I went to see it, I think ! ) I suppose it was all there in the original animation, but somehow the idea of a superhuman female didn’t seem to carry the political import that we see in this, but maybe it was always already all there.

I am not familiar with AEON FLUX.

I haven't seen previews yet. But I did read that Theron's female character orders around Mad Max. But we all know that Max only takes orders as a ruse or when plotting some grand counter-stoke, right? And, presumably he won't counter-stroke an ally. What, so now Max is submissive to a woman? Laughable.
