    I am tentatively excited. Seeing Miller is still attached as the director is a big positive. He clearly has a vision for the Mad Max universe that has elaborated over time. Anya Taylor-Joy is a good actress and she passes for a young Charlize Theron.

    I am mildly worried by some of the visuals, which have a more floaty and obvious CG look to them. A few shots look more ‘300’ than ‘Fury Road’. Might just be bad context and/or early visuals that aren’t fully cleaned up yet.

    Edit: I just realized what the visuals really remind me of. 2011’s ‘Priest’ starring Paul Bettany. Concerning.

          Possibly very much like that, with series meaning episodes will be adjusted for action in each of them instead of working with a nice film flow of 2-3 hours.

          A couple War Boys shots with some of the vehicles and environment effects look promising, but I’d put this one on a skeptical box then be surprised if it comes out good, rather than experience the opposite for the nth time.

      Anya Taylor-Joy… passes for a young Charlize Theron.

      I disagree with this. I think Joy is a good actor but the difference between her and Theron is really jarring.
