George Miller Shooting MAD MAX: FURY ROAD and MAD MAX: FURIOSA Back-to-Back?

by     Posted 2 years, 352 days ago

Director George Miller is reportedly shooting Mad Max: Fury Road back-to-back with an unannounced sequel entitled Mad Max: FuriosaTwitch reports that the films are being shot back-to-back for a rapid release.  This is the first we’ve heard about a second sequel, let alone one that’s being shot back-to-back with Fury Road.  While this may sound surprising, some of you may remember in October 2009 when we reported that filming would take place over 30 weeks (an average shoot is about six weeks).  While that shooting schedule sounded like a crazy amount of time, star Tom Hardy recently told Steve that “Shooting is probably nine months.”  That’s quite a lot of time for one movie, but for two movies, it makes a lot more sense.

    Thank God that KKK leader: Mel Gibson is not in it. I will always watch Mel Gibson movies since he is a genius. But, I have a strong fondness for Mad Max and it would be less of a joy if he was in it. I was willing to look past the jew trashing even though what Mel said was wrong. But, after the trashing of blacks than it is hard not to notice what a racist he is. George Miller is the real genius behind Mad Max when Mel Gibson was a nobody. Mel even said that a lot of his directing style he used Oscar winning Braveheart he learned from Miller.

    At first I was mad that Mel Gibson was not in the new Mad Max movies, now I'm happy he is out. It's not just him using the “N” word that is now all over the news. We all knew that Mel Gibson was a racist. When doing interviews for Lethal Weapon 3, people were asking him if he and Danny Glover where close friends and after two movies (several years) they should have been like stars and actors always do working on sequels. But, Mel said they weren't that close. I think they became friends after part 3 (YEARS LATER HE MANAGED TO KIND OF LOOK PAST GLOVER'S SKIN TONE). Then there was that improvised joke in Lethal Weapon 2 when Mel Gibson said, “…Your black…” to Glover acting like he is shocked that he is starring in a movie with a black guy. Then there was Lethal Weapon 4 when Mel Gibson was making all the Chinese racial jokes that he had come up with (not the writers), it was all over the news in interviews for that movie when Mel admitted to coming up with it. It's all over Mel Gibson's history, the man is lower than dirt. It is very sad, because he is a genius film maker with a beautiful mind that made Braveheart. He really needs to look deep into himself and stop thinking like trailer trash or a Nazi. By the way, most of Mel's directing style he learned from George Miller. So at least we still have Miller. I have a friend who is a die hard Mel Gibson fan and he is probably heart broken because Mel Gibson hates blacks and my friend is black. Way to Alienate yourself from the millions of blacks, jews and asians.

    Ditto your comments. I am a 43 yr. old black male who is a film student graduate and I love films. I consider the first two Mad Max films to be utter flawless films. I was disallusioned at Mel's rants but not surprised because of comments I have heard over the years about Gibson on various film sets. The man was raised by a father who is a Holocaust denier so what do you expect from Gibson. Also, he was raised in Australia not exactly a beacon for racial harmony. You marvel at Braveheart but my heart flutters at the Passion of the Christ. How could a man with so much hatred and bitterness towards blacks, gays, women, hispanics, asians, and jews make a film so beautiful about the life, death, and resurrection of mankind's saviour? Oh well, as you stated Miller is still on board, Hardy is an exceptional young actor, i.e,.. Bronson, Inception and the character of Max Rockatansky is still alive. Hopefully, George gives us another V8 Interceptor.
