New Bold Fury Road Poster

Kind of a slow news day today.  It’s Easter Monday and not a lot is going on.  On the other side of things though, there should be a lot of reviews the rest of this week.  I got a stack of ’em right here to get through.  Some are good, some are downright atrocities.

Anyway, below is the later official poster for Mad Max: Fury Road.  The movie survived 15 year plus of development hell, then another two years of controversial filming.  Despite that, the movie is said to be wall-to-wall practical action, old school and Miller style.  Looks nice to me, I’m liking the font they’re using there.  Very… VHS, or something.  Can’t quite put my finger on it.

Oh, and look at that.  What is it… why, yes… it’s a glorious ‘R’ rating stamped on it.  Thank you George, you da man.

“MAD MAX: FURY ROAD is the fourth film of George Miller‘s Road Warrior/Mad Max franchise co-written and directed by Miller. The post-apocalyptic action film is set in the furthest reaches of our planet, in a stark desert landscape where humanity is broken, and most everyone is crazed fighting for the necessities of life. Within this world of fire and blood exist two rebels on the run who just might be able to restore order… There’s Max (played by TOM HARDY from The Dark Knight Rises), a man of action and a man of few words, who seeks peace of mind following the loss of his wife and child in the aftermath of the chaos. And… Furiosa (played by CHARLIZE THERON from Prometheus), a woman of action and a woman who believes her path to survival may be achieved if she can make it across the desert back to her childhood homeland.”

Fury Road hits cinemas May 13th.
