This looks like even if the story and characters don't click, the visuals will still make it a must see. If the story and characters have as much care in execution as the visuals? Hot damn, will this be a treat.

Well Max isn't really a complex character, and if anyone is going to get him right it's Miller, so I have no worries in that regard.
 
So it does seem we get some breaks from the main "Immortan Joe chasing Furiosa across the desert" chase, which is good for the sake of variety.

Also, I don't get what people were talking about complaining about Hardy doing the Bane voice, because he doesn't sound anything like Bane.

I dig Hardy's Max voice. It's like half British/ambiguously Australian and American-ish. I'm sure some want a full-blown Australian accent, but for some reason I like the ambiguity of it. An indeterminate accent makes him seem more mysterious. Max is essentially the Man With No Name, the dark stranger of the Prairie Western archetype, transplanted into a post apocalyptic setting.
 
Yeah he doesn't sound American..but more of a man of the world with a vague accent.
 
As long as the character's Australian heritage is referenced then I'll be happy. The accent has enough of it leaking through.
 
Hardy sounds gruff Australian/a little English to me. I don't hear any American in his accent.
 
that accent sucks. though the movie is about action. luckily Max does not need to say much. Still trust Miller though

Yeah, it sounds nothing like his Bane voice. Anyone saying that is just hearing what they want to.

BTW, I loved Hardy's Bane voice. I've never understood the complaints about it.
 
I really hope this isn't like this years's Godzilla. A film with great trailers that made the internet pretty much praise the thing before it came out and it gets a pretty mixed response. I think the trailer's are showing way too much of the goods.

Judging from what people have reported from screenings of longer bits of footage that Miller did at SXSW and other festivals I don't think it will be near as much of a bait and switch as with Godzilla with its 5 minutes of Cranston and off camera monster fights.
 
I still remain skeptical of these things. Those type of reports can go either way. It could be legit praise or it could just be some people who just happened to love what they saw to just hype the film.
 
wowowowowoooooooooooo. this is R rated???????????????????????
 
Still hoping this movie could give Charlize a Captain Marvel push.
 
Wow, never thought of Charlize as Captain Marvel but that would be badass.
 
In his new Esquire interview, Hardy mentions he's signed for 3 more Max movies but it's all dependent on box office. He also pretty much blows off the interviewer trying to dig about rumors he and Charlize didn't get along.

I can't really link to it because Hardy swears like a sailor...
