Yeah, so George Miller (who was once attached to the Justice League debacle) is making Mad Max IV, and only 24 years after Mad Max 3! It’s going to be 3-D animated, Mel Gibson will not be participating, and Miller will be developing a video game in conjunction with the movie. Miller’s last movie was Happy Feet in 2006, which I haven’t seen, and his last movie I’ve heard of before that was 1992′s Lorenzo’s Oil. I’m not sure what he was doing for all those years in between. Perhaps seeing how many licks it takes to get to the center of a tootsie pop or running a race against an arrogant hare. Anyway, I wish him all the best on selling videogames before I go back to not giving a sh-t about him for the next 20 years.
Meanwhile, my script for Slightly Perturbed Steve silently collects dust. Subtlety is dead I tell you.

There was a Mad Max 3?
We need to start a betting pool on the announcement date for Titanic II.
This guy looks like Mrs. Doubtfire’s husband.
20 bucks those frames have no glass in them…what an artist.
*throws a cream pie in Donk’s face*
If they’re already making a video game, they should just do it in machinima (video game puppet theater). I’m sure the characters being unable to walk up on curbs and having limbs disappear into solid brick would be the least of their concerns.
24 years later?
Mad Max probably needs that IV.
Barney Frank has never looked better.
One question . . . will the big fuckin retard be back in this one?
@erswi–to reiterate, Mel Gibson is not participating.
Mad Max exists in a barren world where gasoline is scarce. So if you want to drive hammered, no worries.
Banner Pic: Hans Moleman has never looked better.
24-years later Mad Max never goes over 30mph.
24-Years later Mad Max remembers a time when the barbarians in the wasteland had a little bit more respect for one another.
It’s a shame Gibson’s not involved, because in my script for Mad Max 4, the Thunderdome is run by Jews.
24-Years later Mad Max uses terms that are now offensive to minorities, but that’s just what he’s always called them.
So the summary for Lorenzo’s Oil is “A boy develops a disease so rare that nobody is working on a cure, so his father decides to learn all about it and tackle the problem himself.”
Unless his father’s a doctor, I’m making an early prediction this doesn’t have a happy ending.
24 years later Mad Max confuses his pursuers by always leaving his left turn signal on.
24 years later Mad Max wears a fedora and has to sit on the Sydney Yellow Pages to see over the steering wheel.
Boy, Harold Ramis really looks like shit.
24 years later the only gas Mad Max is concerned about is the stuff he passes after taking his fish oil pills.
I’m not sure what he was doing for all those years in between
My guess? Building a scale replica of Hogwarts School in his basement.
Wow, this Pepsi Max stuff is the shit. I can see my own pulse.
24-Years later Mad Max isn’t quick enough to catch a rattlesnake, but he’s learned a few tricks so he doesn’t have to be.
His father wasn’t a doctor, but his parents did find a treatment.
Research FTW.
24-Years later Mad Max would prefer if you called him Mad Maxwell now. He’s matured a lot since you last saw him.
24 years later Snake Plisskin triumphs over Mad Max in the regional pie eating contest.
Donk: Jeez 24 Years Later Mad Max, are you still wearing leather?
24YLMM: Depends
Donk: On what?
24YLMM: On my ass.
Donk: Huh?
24 years later Mad Maxwell Demon can’t stop playing the Lorenzo’s Oil video game.
Worst decision of my life? Getting those giant f-ing glasses tattooed on my face…
You know, he DID produce Babe, which got 7 Oscar noms and pulled down about $250MM worldwide. This is a film blog, right?
