However, as great as Mike and his Aussie friends' discussions were (and they were), the interviews with the stars of the films truly knocked the ball out of the park for me (what nice guys Fifi and the Toecutter turned out to be!).<br /><br />Anyway, the only thing left to cover would be the recent Mad Max 'open world' video game.<br />https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mad_Max_(2015_video_game)<br />And while it's true that this game probably represents what Mad Max sequel directed by someone other than George Miller would look like, it still has a pretty interesting (if simple) story that does not shy away from revisiting the tragedies of the first movie.<br /><br />If you care to learn more, check out the movie montage of all two hours of cinematic cutscenes from the game:<br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vJbNOMqh30<br />(there are several good movie montages of the game out there, but this one is the shortest)Phil Kaycocknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6265014241875110812.post-86565024456295018132019-06-12T16:15:31.201-04:002019-06-12T16:15:31.201-04:00Pulled out my 3D Blu-ray of Fury Road for a watch ...Pulled out my 3D Blu-ray of Fury Road for a watch after listening.

I love both versions. What strikes me about B&C is the way it hones in on shape and texture. (EG: all the tiny grains of sand on Max's skin refracting in the sunlight.) Watching B&C literally made me thirsty, I could feel the relief when Max finally got to drink from the water hose. B&C may make you appreciate the value of a cold glass of water. <br /><br />If anything, for me, B&C enhances what the film has to say about the commodification of natural resources like water. (Not a bad double feature with the documentary TAPPED in this regard.) Immortan Joe surrogates exist now all across the globe, exploiting "Aqua Cola" for profit & leverage over countless human lives.
