Did you know a Mad Max sequel was in the works? Dubbed as 'Mad Max: Fury Road' The fourth installment of the post apocalyptic franchise wrapped filming in mid December, and the slow trickle of production shots and concept art has started to trickle out to the public. This latest video features some on set footage from the shooting location of Namibia, showcasing a handful of deadly vehicles strutting their stuff.
Starring Tom Hardy (Bane) in the role of Mad Max, the new installment will take place 29 years after the latest installment, 1985's 'Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome.' A few encouraging things to keep in mind for the 2014 flick:
***What is “CG”? ***
I will guess it means “Computer generated” special effects.
You interviewed Wez?? That is so cool!! I bet he did have some great stories!!
I think the franchise was destroyed in the third one.
It was the far away best of the bunch -- though at some points almost too grim to watch.
My favorite line:
[a car that the bikers demolished earlier has been towed to the Halls of Justice]
Kid: Hey Mister! What happened to the car?
Bubba Zanetti: What do you think happened?
Kid: Looks like it's been chewed up and spat out.
Bubba Zanetti: Perhaps it was a result of anxiety.
Second favorite:
Nightrider: I am the Nightrider. I'm a fuel injected suicide machine. I am the rocker, I am the roller, I am the out-of-controller!
I read that Mad Max was the most profitable (i.e., revenue / cost) movie in history for a about 20 years until Blair Witch Project.
