Watch The Action-Packed Launch Trailer For ‘Mad Max’!

by Derek Kraneveldt

Briefly: I feel like Warner Bros. did a really bad job released Mad Max today, on the very same day as the release of the probably-last-ever Metal Gear game.

But, the game is pretty awesome (at least from what I’ve seen, my fiancé has been hogging it all day), and the publisher has just released an equally awesome launch trailer to go with it.

The graphics, mechanics, voice acting, music, and more all look great from what I’ve seen so far, and I really can’t wait to get my hands on it. I feel almost as tortured as Max is, however, as once it’s my turn on the PS4, I’ll likely skip Max at first to play the it’s-so-deep-I’ll-never-finish-it Metal Gear Solid V.

Take a look at the launch trailer below, and let us know what you think!

Win a ‘The Director’s Chair’ Poster Featuring George Miller, ‘Mad Max’ Director, From El Rey Network!

by Eric Francisco

When I walked out of the theater after seeing Mad Max Fury Road earlier this year, I asked my buddy, both of us delirious from the two-hour adrenaline rush we had just experienced.”You know what else he directed?” I asked him, referring to Fury Road director George Miller.

“What?” he wondered. I answered, “Happy Feet.”

He burst out laughing. I chuckled, because yeah, it’s funny. But it also shows how versatile of an artist Miller is.

El Rey will be airing a new installment of my favorite docu-series, The Director’s Chair, this Sunday, Aug. 30 at 8pm ET with the legendary filmmaker George Miller himself sitting down with Robert Rodriguez.

The ‘Mad Max’ Game Looks Crazy, Watch The New TV Spot!

by Derek Kraneveldt

Briefly: It’s been a long time coming (like a whole console generation), but we’re finally just a week away from the launch of the Mad Max video game.

I know how excited Shane’s been for the title, but for some reason it’s slipped under my radar until now. Then I watched this newly released TV Spot and realized that it’s a freaking Mad Max video game.

How could it not be great?

The graphics, mechanics, voice acting, music, and more all look great from the videos that I’ve seen so far, and I really can’t wait to get my hands on it. I feel almost as tortured as Max is, however, as of course the game launches on the same day as the it’s-so-deep-I’ll-never-finish-it Metal Gear Solid V.

Take a look at the spot below, and let us know if you’ll be picking this one up.

Gamescom 2015: ‘Mad Max’ Trailer!

by jake108

Coming off the release of Mad Max: Fury Road, Mad Max promises to bring the world we’re familiar with into a living and playable world. The game seems to blend Max’s tormented past and over-the-top action pretty well.

The game’s story is a stand-alone piece and will not tie into Fury Road. Mad Max also has a tormented video game past of its own. You may remember the first announcement trailer that promised a game coming to last-gen consoles. Obviously that never happened, and the game has since been reworked into what we see above. Regardless, Avalanche Studios seems to have found their way to the game’s completion!

Mad Max is set to release September 1, 2015. 

Tom Hardy Gives Awesome Answer to Dumb ‘Mad Max: Fury Road’ Question

by Eric Francisco

Mad Max: Fury Road is now everybody’s favorite action movie of the summer even though it’s not even June. Much ado has been made of its uniquely pro-women story and acclaimed female characters, but that hasn’t stopped dumb people from wondering where all the men are.

During this year’s Cannes Film Festival, Tom Hardy was asked by a journalist if he wondered why there were so many women “in a man’s movie.” Watch here at the 9:45 mark.

The Cannes Film Festival ended a few weeks back but this video is now gaining traction.

I genuinely wonder where these people are coming from. We’re at a point when geek culture is finally being more inclusionary, yet there’s pushback to keep this stuff for dudes-only. Maybe the “journalist” didn’t have ill-intentions and really wondered what the film’s star thought about the film’s characters, but what a shitty way to word it.

The Final ‘Mad Max: Fury Road’ Trailer Is Even More Insane Than The Last One!

by Derek Kraneveldt

Briefly: I’m still not overly familiar with the Mad Max series, but this insanely cool final trailer for the upcoming Fury Road is making me rethink my entire life.

The film features an entirely new cast, and though the last Mad Max film came five years before I was born in 1985, Fury Road will not act as a complete reboot, and will instead be set following the events of 1981’s Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior.

In the film, “Haunted by his turbulent past, Mad Max believes the best way to survive is to wander alone. Nevertheless, he becomes swept up with a group fleeing across the Wasteland in a War Rig driven by an elite Imperator, Furiosa. They are escaping a Citadel tyrannized by the Immortan Joe, from whom something irreplaceable has been taken. Enraged, the Warlord marshals all his gangs and pursues the rebels ruthlessly in the high-octane Road War that follows.”

This trailer is gorgeous, action packed, and it instantly excited even a Mad Max virgin like myself. Take a look at the video below, and be sure to let us know if you’re excited for this one. Mad Max: Fury Road hits theatres on May 15th!

Here’s The Gorgeous Full Trailer For ‘Mad Max: Fury Road’!

by Derek Kraneveldt

Briefly: Just yesterday Warner Bros. debuted three sexy new TV spots for next month’s Mad Max: Fury Road, and today they’ve debuted an absolutely gorgeous new trailer that’s chock-full of insane looking new footage.

As I noted yesterday, to this day I’m a Mad Max virgin, but that’s a problem that I’ll definitely have solved by the time May 15th rolls around.

In the film, “Haunted by his turbulent past, Mad Max believes the best way to survive is to wander alone. Nevertheless, he becomes swept up with a group fleeing across the Wasteland in a War Rig driven by an elite Imperator, Furiosa. They are escaping a Citadel tyrannized by the Immortan Joe, from whom something irreplaceable has been taken.
