MTV recently spoke to director George Miller, who says that the fourth Mad Max film will now be a 3-D animated feature without Mel Gibson. Here is his quote:
“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.”
He also stated that Mel Gibson would not be involved. I’m personally not too big on this idea. I am a huge fan of the first two movies, not so much the third but I just can’t imagine a Mad Max movie without Gibson. Say what you will about Gibson but he kicked ass in those movies, even in the third movie. Overall I don’t think this is a terrible idea because I don’t see it being as bad as the third movie, but I also don’t think it is a good idea.
What do you think about a Mel-less animated Mad Max film?
