Fury Road


I want to share with you my love for the new Mad Max film, Fury Road. I saw it last night in plain old "2D" and was glued to the screen from start to finish. It truly has to been seen to be appreciated and I feel the high budget action scenes mask a deeper almost art house film which will reward many a re-watch. I have limited tolerance for endless Marvel/DC related movies (having never picked up a comic book my whole life other than those borrowed and gathering dust on the shelf) so I can understand this film isn't for everyone, but as an artist and long time fan of any non-zombie portrayel of a dystopian future (Zombies are soo 2010...) the classic "there and back again" adventure tale has been given a real kick in the pants by director George Miller (of Babe and Happy Feet fame). If you need any encouragement to work on a hobby project (Ork Speed Freak related or otherwise) then I would definitely see Road Fury. They were scouting locations for this film in 1999!
