    You ever get angry at yourself for being so utterly wrong about something? That was me after just watching Mad Max for the first time, having completely written it off my whole life. I had a misconception that the whole thing was about resource scarcity after the apocalypse, and I didn’t think that sounded very interesting.

    I watched all of the installments in the franchise. One of the most solid franchises I can think of. Even the low points (if I must call them that) are still very entertaining. The original 1979 film though is honestly one of the best movies I’ve ever seen. I wasn’t expecting it, and I was blown away.

    Always happy to find something new that shatters the jaded shell that’s built up around me over the years. 10 out of 10.
