That trailer looks pretty sweet but isn't there more to max, I mean come on who wants to see punk raiders, wasteland wanderers and vehicular mayhem these days.....me that's who!

Don't forget the big-ass '80s hair, the ass-less chaps on tight-ass leather, and the gay/BDSM overtones that came to be the signature staples the original films.

What big 80s hair?
What gay/BDSM overt... oh, never mind.

I'm really... really hoping they don't screw this up. I so want to like it.

Now that I've seen the preview trailer on the big screen, I am wondering if it might end up too similar to The Road Warrior.

Oh, it hits all the nostalgia buttons for me as a fan of the originals - the ramshackle cars, the leatherpunk wasteland barbarians, even what looked like a grown-up version of the "witch-doctor kid" from Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome - but can't we have a plot beyond "marauders chase a tanker truck" this time?

I also hope the special effects are improved by release; the fire & explosion effects look like BAD early 1990s CGI. Heck even real fire would look better than the crap effects in that trailer.
