  1. G-1 had some SFX issues if looked at it close however the Hollywood references above were blindingly bad. If you can't do it right then don't do it all.
  2. Still hadn't seen the first two films yet.
  3. Well, poop. I'm hoping we do get more MAD MAX films. On a side note after re-watching all the movies last weekend I'd have to say The Road Warrior is the best sequel that was an improvement over the first film imho. Meaning if I'd score Mad Max a 5 or 6 and The Road Warrior is a 9. In comparison Star Wars: A New Hope or Batman Begins scores 8 and their sequels are a 10. I also still think a streaming series could work. My idea wouldn't be a 'street gang of the week' but showing how society collapses when the infrastructure (energy. water, law, etc) breaks down that eventually leads to wasteland road violence. ‘Furiosa’ Box Office Puts Brakes on George Miller’s Next ‘Mad Max’ Movie https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/mad-max-the-wasteland-furiosa-1235911133/
  4. Looks like a fun sequel. My whole family is in!
  5. Same, restarted the game too. First re-play since 2015 and its still great. Didn't realize I put in over 80 hours in my first play through tho, lol. On a side note I'm reading Furiosa is a box office bust but I don't lay blame on the movie, instead I think its on the theaters and their ticket pricing. Want to fill seats? Lower their price if its not filling!
  6. It's been a MAD MAX long weekend for me by watching all the movies on MAX, lol. Not in a particular order either. First was Fury Road followed by Road Warrior and Thunderdome and original Mad Max last. Though George Miller directed all the movies I think all the films are well made and except for Fury Road and Furiosa they are so different from each other in terms of wasteland wheeled adventure. That being said I think Mad Max could make for an excellent streaming series.
  7. Our other local (Alamo, ICON, CMX, etc) theaters actually don't have ads played when the movie is supposed to start and I guess that's what it made seem so obscene too.
  8. Saw it today. It was good, felt like a companion to the last movie. Hemsworth was great and should play more villains. Side notes though... I am never going to a Regal Cinema again. Had to sit through 30 minutes of mostly ads and some trailers after the movie was supposed to start. Unreal.
  9. Morgan had a lot of issues and wasn't a very good guy however he did make fast food restaurants change tho so I guess that is something.
  10. Uhhh, we'll wait for reviews.
  11. I think STAR WARS is making this series for the non-fans. The SW casual fan type that loves baby Yoda and says "May The 4th Be With You" on Facebook but never played KOTOR or watched an episode of REBELS or Clone Wars.
  12. The zombies were gone in the second film too... Why no 28 Months Later is an odd choice tho.
  13. I'm still hoping for a October showing of the THE CROW at my local Alamo Drafthouse. I emailed them about but they said they have no plans for it beyond this month.
  14. Back in 1998 into 1999 I remember the huge hype for THE PHANTOM MENACE but who knew THE MATRIX would steal its thunder??
  15. Roger Corman launched many Hollywood careers, best known is James Cameron.
  16. Wife and I saw THE FALL GUY for date night tonight. It's a funny and entertaining movie though I think everyone involved had a little too much fun making it, lol. It's also a love letter to Hollywood's stunt doubles too. Stunt actors are working for more recognition with the Academy Awards with their own category and deserve it however I think it could lead to deadly situations where they try to outdo each other just for an award.
  17. Saw this but expect it to be pricey. We only watch about an hour of streaming a day so we're limiting our subscriptions. Right now its MAX, Paramount+, Apple+ and Prime. I don't plan on renewing my Prime subscription this year.
  18. Just started watching YELLOWJACKETS on Paramount+. Really really good.
  19. OK... Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum directed by and starring Andy Serkis https://www.ign.com/articles/new-the-lord-of-the-rings-movie-announced-for-2026
  20. Re-watched JUSTICE LEAGUE Snyder cut and was reminded of how good it was. A tragedy that WB tried to go full MCU in such short time and abandoned it just as quickly too. No idea how these new films will go but how much reboots and spin-offs can we fans take??
