Just a few hours after you read this, I’ll be on my way to watch Mad Max: Fury Road. Don’t worry, I’ll give you a moment to hate me… There, feel better now? Oh, you didn’t actually hate me for getting to watch one of the most anticipated movies of the year before you? Well, then allow me to stoke …
Every single thing I’ve seen from Mad Max: Fury Road thus far tells me that it’s the sand and petrol fever dream of crazy awesomeness that we never knew we wanted, but now that we’ve seen it, we can’t do without! Unfortunately, we’ll have to survive a bit longer without dudes playing flamethrower-guitars!! as we’re still about a month away …
The highly anticipated 2015 Mad Max, co-written and directed by George Miller, looks totally INSANE. Really. Each time I watch a new trailer I get the sense that the title, Mad Max: Fury Road really does the film justice. It just looks, well, bat sh*t crazy! From people painted in white bouncing from poles attached to vehicles that seem to run on FLAMES …

Because, boys …

And by “we”, I clearly don’t mean the sometimes cheap alcohol fueled ravings of Darryn, Nick, James and I on this site, but rather our country of South Africa being used as a prime shooting location for American movies. One of the reasons is that we have such …
Five new movies release today. Four of those five, unusually, have female leads. The fifth, however, will be the hands-down box office winner of the weekend. X-Men: Days of Future Past: Back in 2000, Bryan Singer’s X-Men ushered in the new Golden Age of superhero films. Fourteen years later, Singer brings us arguably the most ambitious comic book adaptation ever …
This may be a tad hyperbolic, but I’m pretty sure that Mad Max: Fury Road has been in production since before my people were legally allowed to vote. After numerous reshoots and budget over-runs etc, George Miller’s fourth Mad Max tale – with Tom Hardy now stepping into Mel Gibson’s post apocalyptic shoes – wrapped principal photography last year already, and still we have nothing …
Every year in the gaming industry, there is a familiar buzz that starts building …
