Before George Miller returns to the wastelands of the Mad Max realm for the upcoming Furiosa, he’s dropped upon us his first original live action non-sequel, non-franchise film since 1992’s Lorenzo’s Oil. Three Thousand Years of Longing was one of the many original films released in the end of summer in August that looked like […]
Academy Award winning director George Miller’s (Happy Feet, the Mad Max franchise, The Witches of Eastwick) fantasy romantic drama Three Thousand Years of Longing, from Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and United Artists Releasing, will be released on 4K UHD, Blu-ray and DVD on 11/15, it was announced today by Warner Bros. Home Entertainment. Directed by Miller from a screenplay by […]
We’re all ready for the end of another crazy year. It’s mind-blowing to me as I get older just how quickly time passes. Things fleet right past me and I just wonder how things went so fast. Even now, I’m kind of blown away that I purchased and watched nearly 100 4K titles this year. […]
Warner Bros. Home Entertainment announced today that The Mad Max Anthology, featuring 1979’s acclaimed post-apocalyptic action film Mad Max, 1981’s Mad Max The Road Warrior, 1985’s Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome and 2015’s Mad Max Fury Road will be released together on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Combo Pack and Digital HD on November 2. Created by George Miller and Byron Kennedy, Miller directed […]
Unlike last year, this was a brave, bold, new world for me in terms of Blu-ray collecting. I upped my game as I stepped into the 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray arena. I took on the combatants (HDMI handshake and audio sync issues being most problematic) like a champion and came out unscathed. You can read […]
Here’s a true fact for you. Never in a million, zillion years would I ever have believed that I could experience unhappiness while watching my favorite film of 2015, Mad Max Fury Road. Before we go there I want to take a step back. Last year the rumor was that the Blu-ray release of Mad Max […]
Mad Max fans will have something to put atop their holiday gift lists with the Mad Max High Octane Collection, debuting December 6 from Warner Bros. Home Entertainment (WBHE). All four films from visionary director George Miller’s blockbuster sci-fi franchise — Mad Max (1979); Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior (1981); Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome (1985) and Mad Max: Fury Road (2015), now with Tom Hardy as Max […]
It’s that time of the year again. I generally hate this time of the year not because of the holidays, but because it means nothing but cold and deadness outside and in a reviewer’s world, the dreaded TOP 10 Favorite Films lists as well. Last year there was an influx of good movies released theatrically (IMO) making […]
Like last year, I really didn’t acquire as many Blu-ray titles in 2015 as I typically do in a 12-month calendar. Also like last year, there are Blu-ray titles that I reviewed personally and held onto, but the others made their way into my collection when they were either priced exceptionally well (most recently this Ultimate James Bond Collection here) or “Day […]
I have to be honest with y’all. I’ve been anxiously waiting for this day to come ever since I first saw Mad Max Fury Road this past May. I’ve seen it not once, not twice, not even three times, but five triumphant times in the theater with one of them being a gigantic IMAX screen […]
You read the title of this post, right? Well if you didn’t, let me spell it out for you once again in all CAPITAL letters. STOP EVERYTHING YOU ARE DOING AND READ THIS! MAD-MAX FURY ROAD IS COMING TO BLU-RAY IN SEPTEMBER! That historic date in Blu-ray history will be none other than September flipping 1st…ONE […]
Before we even get into chatting about all the reasons why Mad Max Fury Road is “50 Shades of F#%king Awesome” I want to spend a moment reflecting upon the film’s theatrical trailers over the past year. All I can say is F YEAH! You want to know how to do a trailer right and pack […]
With my recent review of the Blu-ray for Mad Max from Scream Factory and its relatively convenient timing, I’ve had the itch to keep going writing about the series over here on Why So Blu. No, this won’t be a review of the Blu-ray that has been out forever (Fun Fact: It was the fifth […]

Fans of visionary director George Miller (The Road Warrior, Mad Max Beyond Thunderdomeand Mad Max: Fury Road) and Oscar®-winning director/producer/actor Mel Gibson (Braveheart, Lethal Weapon) know well the dystopian action adventures of Max Rockatansky from the highly popular MAD MAX movies. Relive the high-octane action, experience the visceral thrills, and see the beginning of this […]
While I am sure Aaron Neuwirth will be covering this one in much more depth in his Hall H recap from yesterday, about 3 hours ago Warner Bros. let this Mad Max: Fury Road trailer leak in HD online. I wanted you readers to see it as soon as humanly possible so I dropped everything I […]
Can’t get enough Mel Gibson in your life? I know. We all seem to suffer from that. Wanna relive the film franchise that made him a star and put him on the map on the most glorious of all formats? I know you do. This June…your wait will be OVER! On June 4th, The Mad […]
One of my favorite actors is Mel Gibson, who despite his personal demons is one of the best actors to come along in the last thirty years. Able to convey both masculinity and sensitivity, he’s a rare actor that can work in any genre as shown by his long and illustrious career. That career was […]
