I'm so glad George Miller was still around and able to do this.

Was hoping the DP was the same too, but no. Dean Semler has gone on to have a strange career. He was DP on Road Warrior and Thunderdome. He went on to do Dances With Wolves and City Slickers, both of which look gorgeous. Otherwise it's an odd blend of decent (Apocalypto) to awful action movies (2012)and mainstream comedies, including half of Adam Sandler's movies it seems. Also "Heaven is for Real." His next movie out will be Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2.

All the same, it looks great.

tom hardy is quickly becoming one of my favorite actors.

Warrior is probably one of the best sports movies i've seen.

There's probably going to be another goddamn "Spiderman" reboot, but at least this one won't be telling his origin story for the third f*****g time,

and Andrew Garfield can get back to his true destiny of bagging groceries.

True story: In a 400 level university Lit course for my senior year in college, our term paper was a pretty basic examination on a work of 'great literature' of our choice. So lots of Shakespeare, Dickens, etc. I wrote a 20 page knockout about The Road Warrior as the greatest piece of action movie creation, ever. Compared Max to classic heroes, quoted the crap out of Joseph Campbell, and received a solidly deserved A+.

So I have been pretty god damn psyched about this Mad Max reboot. That trailer kicked my face in three times over, and then I watched it a few more times, cackling with glee throughout. I might buy three tickets for the opening night, just so I can spread out with my popcorn, 3D glasses, and snuck-in cold alcoholic beverages.

What a [expletive] fantastic trailer.

May I direct your attention to a moment at 1:43 of the trailer

1. That's a dude getting pole vaulted 20 feet over a moving car, as we all saw watching it
2. More importantly, there's a guy on the left with AN ENTIRE TRUCK MADE OF AMPS who is playing what appears to be A 6 FOOT BASS WITH A BLADE ON IT.
3. Yes, I watched this trailer six times.

I would pay 100 dollars to see this movie tomorrow.

Ps this trailer is great, but didn't we all see the July one from Comicon? It was nearly as [expletive] awesome 6 months ago.
