Some of the key statements from a self-declared "HUGE Mad Max fan" who saw the screening in Burbank earlier this week... [i]"This IS the kind of Mad Max II/The Road Warrior on steroids, go-big-or-go-home, bug-nuts crazy, toss-you-in-the-deep-end mythology and put-it-all-out-there-in-case-we-never-make-another-one Mad Max Fury Road."[/i] [i][/i] [i]"This movie feels like thirty years of Miller holding in passion for a world that he built so long ago, exploding on the screen. You, remember the third act of The Road Warrior, the bad-ass truck chase that is still hailed as a masterpiece of filmmaking?[/i] [i][/i] [i]You do? Good.[/i] [i][/i] [i]Because that’s what this whole movie pretty much is-and it works! A chase that goes long and deep into the heart of Miller’s post-apocalyptic world, trying to get out of the Wasteland. It opens up and hardly slows down.[/i] [i][/i] [i]You want groovy cars? By the car-carrier load![/i] [i]You want auto combat? Parts strewn for miles![/i] [i]You want practical f/x and stunts? I wonder how many on the stunt team died making this madness?![/i] [i][/i] [i]Its beginning feels like part Miller’s burning passion bursting forth after so long and part a gift to those who’ve waited so patiently for a “real†Mad Max movie. You could watch only the first act as a die-hard fan and you feel like the wait has been worth it."[/i] AFTimes article [url=http://aftimes.com/2014/05/randy-does-not-review-mad-max-fury-road-advanced-screening/]here[/url].

I just saw the trailer for Fury Road. I'd say it looks promising. But I also had this thought: if Hardy dons a mask in the movie, isn't he Bane again?
