MAD MAX 4 3D CG?

I love covering stories with details originating in the foreign press because you can run the originals through translators and produce gold like this,"George Miller is doing the full. In a few weeks his judge over the road known as Mad Max will take over the wheel to bring gas to new frenzied transferred. Fuel to the action and inflated to 3D Mad Max 4: Fury Road is a two-tire position his cabin on the start line."
That's high-octane Frenchlish.
What can be gathered from that, and some other detail-gathering around the web, is that 3D is a definite, and that the relationship between live-action and animation is currently unclear. There was a time when this sequel was thought to be a solely animated affair, and now it has moved to some other vague place that apparently mixes the two.
George Miller has tread this media-mixing ground before, but implementing this kind of hybrid presentation on a large scale, with a Mad Max movie of all fucking things, is strange to say the least.
The rumors of Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron starring in the film were confirmed back in October, but there is still a lot of information left to find out about what shape this film is going to take. The cars will be real at least. Watch for news to escape about Mad Max 4 between Happy Feet 2 reports.

3-D needs to remain in the realm of gimmicky horror and new animated titles. It needs to stay away from any series that I already like.

People keep saying that 3D is only a gimmick, but I don't buy it. I think that would be like saying that surround sound(at its outset) was a gimmick. And look how that turned out?

This kind of makes sense if my memory isn't entirely shot to pieces. When Miller was attached to the Justice League movie, weren't there rumours that was going to be a fully motion-captured CGI affair? My senile brain may be making that up entirely though...

It's not animated - there's a live action film and a tie-in anime.

Mel Gibson is Mad Max. Period. I think Miller has really lost touch with what made his Mad Max movies great in the first place. Mel Gibson is not too old for this part, and he should be doing it. Whatever I've heard so far has me not very interested, and the Max series was among my favorite films.

Mr Rekshun, you do relise that this is the 3D fads third time around right?
Comment #8 (Posted by maniACK)
@#7 Yes, it's the third time around for 3D, but it's also the best version of 3D yet. No more red and blue. And now the technology is there to bring this type of 3D into people's homes. It's not cheap yet, but it's possible. It's just a matter of time until we get good 3D without having to use glasses at all.

oh dear oh dear, I just fear for the lack of straight filming films the way the max films were - live action fast paced proper smash em up road movie. 3d is just awful here. Tom hardy and theron is even worse. Its transformers all over again with a jaws 3 element and it should be left alone.......
Or do it in a fist of the north star vain, with anime....alot of high quality films in anime

This is interesting. I wonder if he's going to try and tie the worlds of his Happy Feet films and Mad Max together, in some way - anyone who's seen the former knows of what I speak; I mean, they're both heightened fables and so on, pairing stark realism with a vague element of the fantastical, and all of that kind of thing.
If that is the case, I'm sold.

I F'in love 3D. I will go to any horror movie in 3D ever if it looks awful.
Comment #13 (Posted by barb)
i think sam worthington is a perfect fit for mad max 4.mel gibson is a little old for this part.

Uggh, if it will only erase part 3 out of my mind I could give a shit less if it's 3d.

Anyone who thinks 3-D is a "gimmick" probably also thinks that blu-ray is a gimmick, HDTV is a gimmick, computers are a gimmick, come on people, the mind is like a parachute, it only works when open

3D is a gimmick because it LOOKS like a gimmick. The depth effect looks nothing like reality. It's the same old crap they were pushing in the 50's that they're recycling for a quick buck. Cameron's big breakthrough was to use it LESS. Less 3D = less headaches.
