This is a picture from Sidney Australia, note the prolific Opera House, that shows how Sidney is presently coated in a Red Dust Storm – something akin to the ones we see in the Max Max series, such as Thunderdome. Apparently Australia is having some serious issues, as msnbc.com illustrates in their article - they also supply a nice little slide show to go along with the agonizing situation. Here is a brief quote from that article that stood out for me: “Such thick dust is a rarity over Australia’s largest city, and came along with whiplashing winds and other uncommon weather conditions across the country in recent days. Hailstorms have pummeled parts of the country this week, while other parts have been hit with an early spring mini-heatwave, and wildfires.”

All of this leads me to ask the question – WTF is going on?

If you think I am making up the Mad Max part – take a look at the poster – the Red Dust storms are actually IN THE MOVIE POSTER. Creepy. All of this got me to thinking about Global Warming, the Zombie Apocalypse, bad politics, but most importantly a new Mad Max Film. Aren’t we overdue for a new one? Maybe Mel can hand the franchise over to someone else who is super cool. If you have ideas on who that could be – post em in our comments – just like our Robotech Live Action Post.

You just have to admire how I turned Australia’s weather woes into fun filled movie theorycraft!

Let us just agree that I rock.
