Mad Max 4 With No Mad Max


George Miller has revealed some shocking news to MTV, Mad Max 4 will be a 3d anime film with no Mel Gibson (Mad Max With No Mad Max That's Mad!) he told MTV:
“We’ll probably go a different route,” Miller told MTV News about the potential talent voicing the lead role

“I see myself as someone who is very curious about storytelling and all its various media,” Miller said. “I’ve always loved anime, in particular the Japanese sensibility. It’s something I’ve always wanted to do.”

“The anime is an opportunity for me to shift a little bit about what anime is doing because anime is ripe for an adjustment or sea change,” he explained. “It’s coming in games and I believe it’s the same in anime. There’s going to be a hybrid anime where it shifts more towards Western sensibilities. [Japanese filmmaker Akira] Kurosawa was able to bridge that gap between the Japanese sensibilities and the West and make those definitive films.”
At Flicks News we love Mad Max 1 and 2 (not so much 3) and this is a crime against cinema to make a Mad Max film without Mel Gibson. So Miller, if you love anime and wanna do an animated Mad Max we have a suggestion: Make the Fist Of The North Star its a kung fu anime epic inspired by Mad Max, then we can all be happy.
