Then again, maybe he is.

Hugely disappointing. A tired fast food employee in blue pajamas is NOT a real furry. 

I realize you aren’t writing professionally here, but this post certainly tries to prove its own point.

These pretzels are making me want to be a fusion chef!

If I had but one wish about this revival, it would be that it’s fine if Bobby’s in a relationship now, but please let it be someone other than Connie.  The whole marrying your childhood sweet heart thing is creepy and sitcoms go to the well of it way too often.

To be fair, King of the Hill and Star Wars are in different boats because (per Disney marketing) we’re supposed to view the “Skywalker Saga” as a single story, whereas nobody looks at King of the Hill and thinks “yes, this is an ongoing epic. Boomhauer’s latest antics at the gun club will surely have vast repercussions…

I’m seein’ double here! Four Blueys!

The “fusion” is just adding nutmeg

Glad to see some appreciation of Cloak & Dagger. This was a weirdly significant movie for me as a kid.

And yet even if I choose to look at it your way, it’s still arguably more an incredible movie than not.

Oh, he was excellent in Cloak and Dagger—and he ably pulled off dual roles as both the airline pilot single father of Henry Thomas’ Davy, but also fictional character Jack Flack (that Davy imagined looked like his father). The ending where his dad ends up being the hero was excellent, and really showed his range.

All of the sequels are about Max showing up, getting swept into a story bigger than himself, and then leaving when it’s all over as other characters get actual conclusions. Mad Max hasn’t been about Max since the 70s, he’s just the mythical figure through which these stories about the wasteland are told.

And if you haven’t seen him in Buffalo Bill you DEFINITELY should check that out. Someone helpfully uploaded almost the entire series to youtube a few months back.

It wasn’t the greatest movie in the world, but I loved him as imaginary spy Jack Flack with the kid from E.T. in Cloak & Dagger.

I will never forget him calling Barry Corbin a “pig-eyed sack of shit” in Wargames. RIP to a great actor.

Max has been a supporting character through most of the films. Mad Max 2 is more about Pappagallo survivors. Beyond Thunderdome focuses more on Aunty Entity and the tribal children. Max is just sort of there.

He’s not unlike Scorsese in that way. I mean, if you didn’t know, would you think the charming children’s movie Hugo or the Dalai Lama biopic Kundun were Scorsese films?

I do remember it being a real WTF moment when learning that the Happy Feet guy was also the Mad Max guy.

George Miller’s entire career laid out honestly sounds like a joke. The man just seems to do whatever the hell he feels like in the moment with zero thought of whether he’s ever done anything like it before, even in comparison to other famous genre-fluid directors like Howard Hawks and George Cukor. And his still…

Could’ve fooled me. One of the main points of the prequel trilogy was how flawed the Jedi code was and how it would lead to someone like Anakin falling. That he would have to conceal his love for Padme and be desperate to turn to Sidious manipulations. For all my faults with the prequel trilogy I like it calling out…
