Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (2024) / Mad May #5

Welcome to the Wasteland! In our final episode of Mad May we bring on a special guest, filmmaker, playwright, comic book writer, banker???, and all around amazing guy Lenny Schwartz! Lenny has probably watched more movies then all three of us hosts combined. Lenny is an accomplished playwright having penned dozens and dozens of plays and operates The Daydream Theater Company out of Rhode Island. He's written several feature films including Higher Methods, Murder University, Comic Book Junkies, Long Night in a Dead City, Normal, and The Assassination of Western Civilization (many of which are streaming). Lenny joins us for a very in depth discussion of George Miller's latest entry into the Mad Max franchise, 'Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga' in which Lenny has some wonderful stories to share from his unique access and insight in the entertainment industry.

Preserving Our Civilization One MOVIE At A Time

In the vast realm of film rankings – AFI's 100, Sight & Sound's Greats, 1001 To See Before You Die, IMDB's Top 250, Roger Ebert's Picks, and so on – there's a glaring omission: STAKES! Picture this: an asteroid the size of Texas hurtling toward Earth, a threat even Bruce Willis and his motley crew of oil drillers can't thwart. We're left with a front-row seat to our impending doom. Fear not, fellow film nerds, for we've constructed a fallout shelter, a haven for cinematic survival. Sadly, the space is tight, just enough for us and our cherished 35mm & 70mm film reels. To friends, family, and old acquaintances left in the cinematic dust, our apologies. But fret not, for we vow to emerge when Earth is safe for repopulation. We've preserved the very soul of civilization, ensuring a future where storytelling thrives. Back to the Frame Rate, saving the world one reel at a time! 🎥✨ Hosted by Nathan Suher, Sam Coale, and Briana (Bee) Butterworth.
