It's time we does the tell, so that we 'members the man who in the roar of an engine lost everything. A burnt-out, desolate man, who wandered out into the wasteland. It was there, in that blighted place, that he learned to live again. Witness us doing the tell, so we will ride eternal, shiny and chrome.
While we have not yet had a chance to see the new movie, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (2024), it feels right to blaze into the Summer of Action by discussing the previous films in the series. Join us as we spend some time with Max. His time in the Interceptor with the Main Force Patrol, battling gangs in a world in decline in Mad Max (1979), to the post-apocalyptic mercenary loner, in search of gasoline in The Road Warrior (1981). And then from there, displaying moral fiber, placing himself in harm's way, showing compassion to protect a group of abandoned children in Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome (1985), and to assist a group of woman struggling to escape an oppressive regime in Mad Max: Fury Road (2015).
