Who would Heath Ledger be playing in the MAD MAX film? The Feral by Monkey_King	Feb 19th, 2002 11:44:40 AM
Hopefully Gibson will do it. It will be his last hurrah in a great role. Hell, the film put him on the map in the U.S. didn't it?
Kevin Smith/MAN OF WAR..... by Monkey_King	Feb 19th, 2002 11:46:44 AM
Hopefully I'll get some feedback from a buddy of mine, who's training Willis for the MAN OF WAR film, on the Kevin Smith tragedy.
mad max 4 beyond mel gibson by kitfisto	Feb 19th, 2002 11:53:43 AM
I just hope mel gibson is in it i dont want this steve bisley .Anyway yesterday i read on cinescape that if mel gibson doesnt return it could kill this sequel . Its about time they make this one its now 17 years since thunderdome .I Think that leadger would be cool as a grown up feral kid .
ghostshop? or.......... by Waffle79	Feb 19th, 2002 12:00:56 PM
ghostship?? anyway..."rabbit proof fence" sounds great.Has anyone seen 'give up yer aul sins', it's up for an oscar along with another sweet animation short called '50%grey'
Heath Ledger? Seriously? Are they smoking crack? by Drak_Tanner	Feb 19th, 2002 03:14:16 PM
Why not bring back Tina Turner and make it her movie? It'd do about the same at the box office. This blows goats. I have proof.
Baz Luhrman by onscreen	Feb 19th, 2002 03:45:10 PM
I agree with Ewan McGregor that Baz Luhrman should have been nominated for Best Director, but I guess we should just be glad that the film (which I think is one of the best of last year) received as many noms as it did.
oh shit!! WARNER IS BUTTFUCKING MAX by TarantinoWebsite	Feb 19th, 2002 04:05:06 PM
come on! that ain't serious? is this an april fool's joke? you can't just make a MAD MAX movie without MAX! And max=gibson!! Warner Bros. people are some kind of potheads.....
Was CUT really THAT successful? by Cash Bailey	Feb 19th, 2002 04:10:44 PM
I mean, really. WAS IT?
Mad Max 4 without Max nor Mel? This is stupid!! by senegaleen	Feb 19th, 2002 10:47:16 PM
Well then they better not call it Mad Max 4!! And why is Mel so ready to anoint this bozo heath ledger!! Get some senses! ... bwaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!
Steve Bisley is the Goose! by SpacePervert	Feb 20th, 2002 05:21:33 AM
I'd rather have any Max than no Max at all, and I've never subscribed to the theory that only one actor can play a fictional role (some actors might play that role REALLY BADLY though) - Sherlock Holmes, James Bond, Harry Feversham, Clarice Starling?
Steve Bisley would be cool, but... by Charlie & Tex	Feb 20th, 2002 06:15:42 AM
...it is clear that the series has well & truly run out of the black fuel. Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome was bad enough, but to do another Mad Max, where it will either just goes through the motions of Mad Max 2, or try to go off on some pretentious spiritual quest (MM:BT) is just making a movie for the sake of it. Let the series rest so it can have some degree of dignity.
Heath JUST DON'T FIT THE LEATHER.... he is NOT a sex bomb by shanti	Feb 20th, 2002 07:29:27 AM
Make a spin-off! but at least they didn't make Heath Ledger Mad Max.
This could be the same deconstruction of the Mad Max trilogy as by AggregateScore	Feb 20th, 2002 08:58:30 AM
But you've got to have Mel there. Hell, you could stick Ledger in as a young protege of the weary road warrior, BUT MEL IS ESSENTIAL. And please, lets not have another 'Beyond the Thunderdome'.
Mad Max by SFA	Feb 20th, 2002 12:12:10 PM
They will fuck Mad Max up (yes, even beyond Thunderdome). It'll probably have a PG-13 rating, a rapper in a sidekick role, loads of ferral kids running about and no cool cars. Bring back the CAR!!!!
Kevin Smith by tbrosz	Feb 20th, 2002 12:42:50 PM
Would have thought the death of such a popular genre series star like Kevin Smith, who often carried many episodes of Xena and Hercules, would have gotten more than one line or two's mention on this site.
Kevin Smith by BonScott	Feb 25th, 2002 06:40:56 PM
A friend works for Willis' production company and said that Smith fell from some scaffolding and after holding on for a couple of days in hospital with massive head injuries, succumbed. Other people seem to be saying it may not have been work related.
Kevin Smith... sniff by Mithril	Mar 4th, 2002 04:41:35 AM
God, another actor I really liked dies. And only a few lines on AICN! WTF!!! Come on, Kevin Smith's passing should get a bit more attention from this bastion of fan boys... Kept watching my new Xena DVDs all weekend, Ares eps kept coming up... it's just sad, real sad... *** Oh, and briefly, at the end: Mad Max without Mel! Things really are going wrong down under lately!
