  1. So, I'm curious: am I the only one who browses this thread who can't drive stick? (I assume not, but if I were to guess I'd say more can than can't)
  2. Certainly one of the more unsettling and disturbing films I've seen. Not to be missed.
  3. LOL, what? Clooney is by far the most talented person involved in that production.
  4. Bond has been around for 53 years. Star Wars for 38 years.How does one do a war movie franchise? How many times can someone save Private Ryan or kill Colonel Kurtz? Oh, and Trek is niche.
  5. One underperforming movie doesn't stop multi-billion dollar franchises.
  6. Nightcrawler and Whiplash were 2014 films. Just saying. The only conversation Fury Road belongs in with is Ex Machina.
  7. Yeah, Garfield was a lot closer to Peter Parker than Maguire ever was. Maguire was pretty much just playing himself. I thought Garfield nailed the character; they just wasted him.
  8. Record rains where they wanted to film made the environment too "green" to pass as the Wasteland.
  9. No actor plays the same character twice. It's just how Miller roles. And Max CLEARLY says at the beginning of Fury Road that he was a cop and he was there when the world fell. And he's still wearing the knee brace. Max is Max, no one else.
  10. Wait, what? The interviews I've been reading with Miller talk of two movies: one which the script is finished for (Mad Max: The Wasteland), and one which is currently in novella form. Haven't read anything about prequels or direct sequels involving Fury Road characters.Edit: minor correction, their are (or will be) prequel comic books
  11. I wanted to share some comments/thoughts from part of an e-mail I sent Joanna Robinson of the "A Cast of Kings" and "A Storm of Spoilers" podcasts:
  12. There seems to have been a concerted effort to cut down on the number of supernatural elements in the show. I don't know if this is budget related, or they thought a more grounded series would reach a wider audience.
  13. Sansa doesn't have to die to become Lady Stoneheart. LSH is just s vengeful character. I think it's way more likely Sansa goes Rat Cook here. Though, I'm aware they may just get out of Dodge a la Jeyne's escape in the books. They're certainly set up for it.
