The only current actor I could accept playing Max Rockatansky besides Gibson is Gerard Butler. At the same time, I refuse to ever give Hollywood's most vocal anti-Semite another dime. So either they get Butler to do it or I'm not seeing this thing. Given how unbelievably important I am, I have no doubt that Miller will catch wind of this comment and act accordingly. #madmax
The second two mad max's combined werent half the film the first one was. (my opinion).
I remember once the director said mad max II was how mad max would have looked if he had the budget, but the reason the first one was so good, and successful, was because it looked kinda like the current world at the start of an apocalypse. You would watch it and be like "Yea, I can see that happening".
This third one will be about as good as mad max III I think. Just OK. #madmax
@oxygen: I respect your opinion, but disagree. The first one, while good, feels more like a Beach Blanket Bingo movie on methamphetamines. Making Toecutter the borderline apocalyptic version of Baron Von Zipper.
The second one really coalesced Miller's vision, and still serves as the premier post-apocalyptic standard against which everything else in the genre is judged. Most importantly: Lord Humongous! #madmax
I think the only way this works is make Hardy a new character in the same world, tracking down Max, who has become a mythic, reclusive figure by now, and Mel only makes a cameo at the end. #madmax
@TemporalSword: Ooh, like Kurtz in Apocalypse Now! Maybe society is finally rebuilding, and Max is still out there with a nation of wild Wolf Boys and Girls who refuse to reengage with civilization. That could be interesting...
But I still wouldn't pay to see it. Not so long as there's even a chance Mr. Sugar Tits would get even a fraction of a cent of what I have to pay. #madmax

...or was that entirely fabricated in my imagination?

An old rumor is that he want's to do ANOTHER Lethal Weapon movie. He could get fit for Mad Max and knock out both movies in the same year.
