I was told this afternoon that I should consider attending a local cinema performance of Mad Max: Fury Road, a simplified dramatic exploration of environmental concerns which have recently loomed near the public's attention. If anyone has seen it, I would be grateful for confirmation that this will at least be educative.

Having seen the trailers, I plan to pass on this one. Without Mel's sulking presence, I doubt it will have the same magic as the rest of the series.
