In a way it looks like a bit of more like a sequel to Doomsday or Death Race than a reboot of Mad Max, which is a bit ironic as they were both extremely derivative of Miller’s first two entries into the series. The trailer gives us a few glimpses at Max, some visually striking set-pieces, and cars, lots and lots of cars. Make no mistake, this looks like Mad Max with a touch of Nolan and a sprinkle of hyperbrutality added in for good measure. In summary: it’s totally badass – violent, brutal and unforgiving, what we get here looks to retain the mood and aesthetic of Mad Max, The Road Warrior, and its homages like the Rover, repurposing it slightly with a new coat of gloss for the Snyder/Bay generation. I have to say I’m cautiously optimistic for both features, although I’m fairly certain both have potential to be total trainwrecks and unfortunately it can’t be said that the trailers are always doing them favours.įirst up, the officially released Mad Max: Fury Road trailer. These projects have been garnering heaps of hype online so I’ve decided to delve into the released footage and give my opinion on what Miller and Snyder have given us.
This week at the San Diego Comic Con we finally saw the release of the two highly anticipated teasers for George Miller’s upcoming Mad Max reboot Fury Road, and Zack Snyder’s Batman/Superman crossover and Justice League springboard Batman Vs.
