Crap in a handbag. I was actually looking forward to that. Up yours, Gibson, and your mysterious agenda too.

Guess he's too busy playing Jesus?

Mad Max 4 will still come out. The titular character will simply be played by Christian Slater, that's all.

I just realised how funny of a name Gibson is.

And Christian Slater is OK. I liked American Psycho.

That was Christian Bale, dumbfuck.

He was directing in that film. Not starring.

Shit, who's Christan Slater than?

EDIT : Shit, I just remembered. That movie will suck.

kurt russell would be perfect for the mad max role.

Maybe Orlando Bloom?

I don't like orlando bloom that much.
I'd rather see some scarred veteran like Bruce Willis, who showed he can do post apocalyptic (in the beginning of 12 monkeys), and Sci-Fi in the fifth element.
And in some way Bruce Willis seem to be capable of delivering lines that'd sound laughable from most others.

And, if I should stick with the young unknown part, how bout Stephen Dorff, who isn't really unknown, but who gives a damn anyway.

Sounds like a bad case of Star Wars syndrome. All these "decades later" sequels usually end up sucking, i think Mad Max should stick to being a trilogy.

Mel is in horrible shape and his constant smoking doesn't help. That's probably why he's behind the camera now rather than in front of it.

Even then if the money is right a person will do anything. For crying out loud Harrison Ford still wants to do Indiana Jones 4, which is looking less likely with Lucas throwing out the script a few days ago.

I had written long well written post, but IE crashed. So fuck it. I was just saying They are screwing every cool character over, see Darth Vader.

No you didn't, you just deleted the original.

See the front page.

Apparently the thread got messed up when it was moved from Submit News, as did the Silver Style/FO3 thread. Bizarro.

How Kubrick?

Ouch, how the mighty have fallen--same thing's happening to Schwartzeneggar. Guess that's why he decided to become governor.

Guess it didn't include enough ewoks or gungans or something...probably wants a scene where Sean Connery as Jones Sr. kung-fu fights a dozen cyber nazis to death using his super biblical powers attained from the Holy Grail...goddamn George Lucas, only HE could ruin DARTH VADER.

Brought him to big screen at least.

ah well. i think miller can/will do a good job on this MM. it sounded like they were just going to go crazy with blowing shit up/smashing cars. i was looking forward to it. its been on hiatus for a while now but some posts on the IMDB.com forum for it seem to suggest filming will start in May in Calif instead of out in africa/australia.
