Just make sure its not Road Warrior 2 before you do this, and have some garbage receptical available to empty out all the strange religious dogma.

Has he done anything cool since Mad Max/Road Warrior? I didnt notice any MB vehicles in those flicks.

I would consider "Conspiracy Theory" to have been a good flick.

That now deleted spam post was about a wrist-watch. When I read it, I had to think if the poster knew about the sock-puppet aspect of the movie (picture a sock puppet wearing a wrist-watch, not the arm that drives it) or if it was just some crufty low-life.

Anybody follow any movie sites and have heard anything about the movie? I originally heard it was supposed to be released in 2012 or late 2011, but imdb shows September 2010 now as its release date.

JH - is that yours at 0:14 of the trailer? Looks like a strange movie but everything else Jodie Foster has touched made lots of bucks. Did the W123 get royalties or anything?
