Some New Vehicle Shots From MAD MAX: FURY ROAD!! That Speaker Truck!! Rusty, Spiky, Hellmobiles!! More!!
Our friend David, who has previously pointed us toward some very nice BTS shots of vehicles being used in the currently filming MAD MAX: FURY ROAD, again calls our attention to images of some gnarly rides from George Miller's new movie. As long as Hardy doesn't sound as goofy here as he sounded as Bane, he should be a fantastic as Max by my reckoning....
This batch of photos came from HERE...the first (two?) shots offering a wonderful perspective of that huge fucking speaker truck we saw a few weeks ago...
The next batch originates HERE...
More to come...

For a future where gas is in short supply they sure use the least fuel effect vehicles possible.

Bana can act crazy but he seems too normal. One thing I noticed with Mel is that he only had a big hit when he was playing somebody who'd gone crazy. Of course, I didn't see SIGNS, which was a big hit. Did he go crazy in that one?
-
it looks very cheesy. If someone can wire up that rig they can build an electric car. Then they wouldn't be worried about gas. The rest of the vehicles look much better than the earlier spy pics though.
-
Sansui was the brand.
-
Because an electric/hybrid car is no more complex than a Marshall stack. That's why there have been MILLIONS of electric/hybrids saving the planet for decades now.
-
and he was a great Bane.

AICN: Picking on TDKR ("Goofy") is a lost cause for you and is hurting your site...
by chris

This is going to be a retread of "The Road Warrior", but with Tom Hardy in the role. Will be interesting to see Charlize in the villain role, but i can not understand for the life of me why they cast that Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. Will be interesting to see Tom as Rockatansky, and see what he brings to the table. I do know he is sporting one hell of a beard in the first quarter. I thought he did an admirable job as Bane - Sounding like a cross between the admirable Chricton and Darth Vader, with a touch of Plainview.

looking forward to original sound from TDKR Prologue
by bulbousbobsbellend
fuck sakes man !!! I had that off youtube for months...He sounded like a bad muthafucker...from what I COULD make out. Then.... fucking "sean connery" !!! but THEN,.... REST of the movie he sounds like a bad muthafucker again ! ie : prologue bit,...i'd spit in his eye & take my chances!...rest of movie...leave it up to Bats. oh ! and...no Mel, no interest.... Just call it doomsday 2,then i would be !

Uh, half-baked, there have been electric cars around for decades,
by jawaburger
I am not sure who to blame for people not wanting to buy them. I assume the movie takes place in a post-apocalyptic future, so I assume that they can find some electric vehicles somewhere whether they work or not. If someone has the skill to build those trucks from scrap and put all those drivers (looks like over 100) and wire them up to a power source and have them work properly, I would hope that they could fix an already existing electric motor in a vehicle. I could be totally wrong, but it seems like a lot of misplaced effort went into that truck. I guess if only auto mechanics and welders survived the devastation and not a single electrician or engineer, then I guess my idea wouldn't work.

by Talkbacker with no name
"prologue bit,...i'd spit in his eye & take my chances!...rest of movie...leave it up to Bats." ?
-
He was born to play Max, (after the Fuhrer obviously...), that guy's got some range on him and does understated brilliantly too when necessary. It's all in the eyes. Hardy, though, was superb as Bane and lets face it that could have been disastrous. Those cars, though, I ain't ashamed to say it got me hard. Miller is da man. Classy, classy act. And I'm not even going to mention 'Justice League'...
-
"Mexico Is the Bestico" Jammin to YMCA on the Speaker Barge Rick..... right on!
-
I think he means, that Bane in the prologue bit didn't sound that good. So he'd spit in Bane's eye and take his chances in a fight. However in the rest of the film Bane sounded tough, so he'd leave the fighting up to Batman. I feel like I'm translating Klunk, from Yankee Doodle Pigeon.
-
There's an uncanny-valley effect going on here for me - these look close to the real thing at a glance, but they all seem a little too well thought out or something. There was a certain desperate rawness to the original films that was born of limited resources and resourcefulness. Add to that the excessively pretty celebrity cast and the wrong lead actor (Gibson or Bana would be enormously better) and nothing moves this out of "tribute band doing a cover song" mode for me. The studio probably thinks it's getting a new franchise out of this, but it ain't gonna happen.

These are iconic characters you don't fuck with. Max=Mel Gibson, Snake Plisken=Kurt Russel, Han Solo & Indiana Jones=Harrison Ford.

The reason post-apoc wont feature electric cars or hybrids
by Arcadian Del Sol
is because the parts will not be available once they stop working. With "old world" gas guzzling machines, you can fabricate any replacement part with some scrap metal and a torch. It may not be pretty, but you can make it work. Hybrids and electric cars? I dare you to keep those working 50 years later using only some copper tubes and a welding torch.
-
Road warrior is one of my all time favorites. That and escape from new york.
-
Maybe my expectations were too high.
-
the movie was amazing. yeah, it had some major problems which primarily have to do with story and too many characters!!! I heard Nolan say the main inspirations for this film was Silent films and the way that they held image above all else and that answers the question. The images and pure cinema of it are absolutely brilliant. Enough said. The new mad max is absolutely incredible.

But I sure as hell am.
-
you fucktards on here ruined the opening sequence with all your bitching "we can't understand Bane when he talks..this is going to be the worst movie EVER" and then the studio listened to you dumb twats and dubbed Bane's voice so people with Down's syndrome such as yourselves, could understand him loud and clearly. If you got problems with his voice you only have yourselves to blame. The rest of the movie he sounds normal thank GOD! they drew the line somewhere.

Buzz Maverik, interesting theory about what makes Gibson as a hero so enticeing. Ever see "The Year of Living Dangerously"? According to Ripley's Belive It or Not...
by ChaunceyGardiner
Gibson got the job for "Mad Max" due to the fact that the night before he'd been in a bar brawl that left him so battered he'd almost not even shown up for the audition. When Miller saw him black and blue with bruises, it was a look that summoned for him the starkness of the edge of the Apocalypse and the end of civilization that his characters skirted and that he wanted to portray despite the scarcity of the budget. (Did you know that the black van that is torn apart in the accident at the beginning of the movie is Miller's own? When shooting was finished they realized they needed something to really elevate what is clearly a low-budget picture. Miller sacrificed his own personal vehicle to give the movie that extra punch of destruction he felt it needed if it was going to turn heads. That level of immersion and dedication, I think Miller recognized it in the young Mr. Gibson.) The rest is... well, history. The fact is, Gibson's drinking problem combines with what is apparently a very short and volatile temper. When he acts, you receive the sensation that here is a somewhat unbalanced guy who showed up on set and is improveing while the others try to keep up with him. His considerable intelligence manifests itself in the image of an unsettled and combustible presence. One of Peter Weir's ("Master and Commander," "Gollipoli," "Mosquito Coast," "Truman Show" and, eliciting a similiarly on-edge and somewhat dangerous performance from the likewise troubled Collin Farrell, "The Way Back") early films is the outstanding political drama "The Year of Living Dangerously." Gibson's character is something of a Hemingway-type idealist, a young journalist very, very far from home. There is this hungry glint in Gibson's eyes that looks like it is about to slide to the bottom of a bottle of gin, so youthful and passionate and unsure of what to do but compelled by compulsion to act, whether it is loveing a woman or trying to save a country. His impulsivity is alive in his gaze and his musculature, as if he were born a sentient animal in a man's skin but barely able to hold back the wounded beast inside. Enjoyed what you said. Made me think of what made (and can make) his acting so affecting.

There should be no electric cars in these movies. Mad Max came out in 1979 so the dystopian future in Max's world occurred in the 80's well before electric cars were mass produced.

They should have a running joke in the movie where people just collapse in a heap and die every few minutes. At first the audience doesn't know why but
by UltraTron
then we come to understand that every nuclear power station went full fukashima the day after the apocolypse. Since there's an average of 6 in each state that would mean enough radiation released to kill anything that walked on screen for more than a minute or so. Post Apocolypse movies are complete nonsense. There is nothing after society collapses except a radioactive ball of shit where the earth used to be. Forget un-maintained reactors. Our missiles all launch on automatic if nobody is there.

When Heath Ledger was alive, my idea for Mad Max was to have Mel in the movie very briefly as Max but when he dies the feral boy from Road Warrior takes his place. The Feral Boy by now would be an adult (Heath) who had been taken in, educated... and care aboutMax like he was his own father.
