Mad Max goes frosty?

Here's a quick little bit of Mad Max 4 news from <a href="http://www.darkhorizons.com/news.htm" target="_blank">Dark Horizons</a>:<blockquote><em><b>Fury Road: Mad Max 4</b>: Second unit cameras are rumoured to have been rolling in Antarctica since before Christmas and will run till late February.</em></blockquote>Antarctica? My, that's a change of scenery. Nuclear winter? .....nahhh.

Bullshit. They won't start shooting until May at the earliest. Here's another rumour for ya:

"... THERE'S TALK that Mel Gibson will ask Tina Turner back for the next "Mad Max" movie, which begins shooting Down Under in May. The volcanic Tina could reprise her role as Aunty Entity from "Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome." I've wondered why producers haven't used Tina more often in movies. She's said over and over again that she wants to act. (You can dance in stiletto heels for just so long, you know!)"

I won't mind seeing Aunty Entity as a minor character or in a cameo. But the chances of this being true are slim at best. "There's talk..." is a dead give away. I can just as easily start a rumour saying "There's talk Max will go back and time with a Back to the Future Delorean/V8 Interceptor hybrid car."

Sweet! His old wagon could be pulled by giant mutant penguins this time!

...I hope this doesn't mean it's going to be a prequel.

[Doyle]

Why would it mean it's a prequel?

[Kashluk]

I think he means the following.

Though it's just speculation over speculation :)

[Doyle]

That still doesn't make sense. If he's going back it time, then it doesn't have to be a prequel.

[Spazmo]

Why would Mel Gibson ask Tina Turner to come back? George Whatsit, the director, would handle that.

Anyways, the South Pole isn't all that far from Australia.

The latest I've read is that filming will start on the 1st June. I wouldn't mind if Tina Turner returned, especially if they made her up to look like Tandi from FO2 : )

[Megatron]

Seems a lot of sequels for older movies are being brought back with the original people who starred in them...Indiana Jones 4, Mad Max 4, Rocky 6 and Terminator 3 with most of the main characters about 50.

You forget the new Rambo about the War on Terror. Yes, Rambo fighting Osama.

Feel free to burn down Holywood.

Hahah, yeah, but it's kind of hard to imagine the series without the original cast. Specially when three movies (or more) are made from them.

I'll give Lucas that: he managed to put out 6 movies in 25 years without us being too attcached to the original cast... I mean that's still a pretty good feat even though I don't like the new episodes.

[Mr Carrot]

Second unit cameras you nonce, that means they go in and take long shots and terrain shots to work out the diffiuclties in filming first unit AND getting started on how proposed sets would look in those conditions.

Maybe the person that wrote it easily mixes up Antarctica and Australia?
