Mad Max and Mad Max 2 look very similar Mad Max and The Road Warrior can be quickly distinguished and leave no room for any confusion.
Mad max 2 movie#
But that is not the reason I shall hereafter refer to the movie as The Road Warrior I have far more boring pragmatic reasons. Including the present author, though I've only ever actually watched the film in prints that show the title as Mad Max 2 (the currently in-print DVD and Blu-ray have it as such). It was called, in the States, The Road Warrior, and that is how those of us who grew up in the States have learned its name. prepared to release the sequel into the United States in 1982, the company (correctly) felt that marketing the film as a sequel to a movie that few people had heard of and fewer had actually seen would be commercial suicide, and so they retitled it, based on the film's dialogue.

The film is known by that title everywhere in the world except for North America the original Mad Max had received a virtually invisible release in 1980, the victim of immensely poor timing, with its distributor American International Pictures in its final death throes at exactly the same time. And if you'll let me pause on that very ebullient sentiment, a note on usage. Game Masters may want to assign the ‘copter some meters of Ground Movement to reflect this, or simply hand-wave the effect as a result of the lift rotor having been wrecked.Mad Max 2 is, maybe, the perfect sequel. The most obvious one, seen when Max first approaches the gyrocopter, is of Karen Price, centerfold in the January 1981 Playboy.Īlthough the vehicle doesn’t have any Ground Movement, the Gyro Captain is seen “driving” the otherwise wrecked ‘copter along the road at the end of Mad Max 2. The vehicle uses a pusher prop and has photos of various nude woman attached to the control surfaces. The gyrocopter has a three wheeled frame, two seats, and runs off of a VW Bug engine. He’ll also hide himself in the sand with a crossbow in case the snake doesn’t work.

The Gyro Captain apparently built it himself and often uses it as bait, draping one of his venomous snakes over it in hopes of killing anyone who gets to close.
