A true story: I was once chased inland by a hurricane and passed an alarming number of similar billboards on the long drive out of harm’s way. But! There are, of course, lovely people in South Carolina, as there are anywhere, and Charleston is cool, and I am enormously fond of the beaches south of Myrtle.

Calling it Mad Max and making audiences think its about Tom Hardy saving a bunch of gorgeous women in white dresses, only to have Hardy be a mute, side character with Theron being the center badass protagonist is genius. I live for the angry fanboy tears right now.
