    Dude, I am MAD impressed by your dedication and the amount of work you put into your videos and the research for all types of information for the MAD MAX Series. I remember when i first came across your videos when I was watching a the MAD MAX movies and got curious about some info about certain stuff about the film like the car, the world before the break down and so on. Hell, you were gon for like what, a year or two and I honestly thought that was it. you were done. life or whatever responsibilities you got just took too much of your time and you just moved on yet here you are. dropping some insane facts about the movie, comics and other stuff that literally never seen the light of day. Love you videos man. Seriously, keep up the amazing work. Every notification I get of your uploads, I know it's going to be a sick ass video. and not gon lie, I hope the video's gon be a long one too lol

    Thanks for your comment I really appreciate it! Yeah, this Mad Max thing was never a fad with me, I've been collecting info about those movies from commonly available sources for a long time until the well dried up and there was no other way but to dig deeper until I just couldn't have all that info rattle around in my head so I stated making videos about this stuff. It's the same with Melvin except he writes books about this stuff, and Adrian has a whole museum. Hopefully my videos open people's eyes on how rich the Mad Max fandom is and how deep the lore goes, so I really appreciate your comment, it means that this is all going in the right direction :)

    I grew up in the central valley of rural California, USA. I had a Blue Healer when I was a kid that I named Dog! In this case, I named him after the Dog in a John Wayne movie, Big Jake. He was literally my play companion and we would explore everywhere and everything together. We spent every free moment together. He was smart, intuitive and a true friend. I miss him very much even 40+ years later.

    Dog's final moments might have been faked but that's exactly what an Australian Cattle dog would do IRL. They are so loyal and fearless, they will put themselves in harm's way to protect their owner. My Blue, Snoop would protect my younger son when his older brother would play fight with him but I wouldn't want to see a stranger do something like that. Snoop saw me as her alpha and she'd do anything for me. When my older son died, she knew when I was upset, I'd never known an animal who was so intuitive. She was the best dog I ever had, a true friend, irreplaceable and I miss her dearly.

    Great that you got to have the Bluey experience as a kid given you grew up in the US. A mate who is a copper here is Aus who told me how Blueys are so loyal that police and emergency Services sometimes have trouble getting to a driver who has been killed in a motor accident because a freaked out Bluey in the vehicle won't let anyone get near his boss. Blueys are pretty special dogs.

    ​@@michealgillman7418I know that feeling. I turned 45 the other day, have had dogs all my life, and never went longer than a year in between them. But my last died 3 years ago this August. She was just one of the special ones. All dogs have their words and commands they know and their own personalities but sometimes you get one that just stands a little above the others. This one knew more words than any I ever had. I have no idea how I did it but I taught her to sneeze on command. I dunno maybe a million people have done that but it was just the damndest thing. And she knew when I was cutting her favorite "healthy snack," green peppers. I could lay out various vegetables in the kitchen and start chopping onions and zucchini and carrots and she didn't care (though she did love carrots). But as soon as I'd cut into a pepper she'd run in. And it wasn't a smell thing, I would trick her sometimes and cut very slowly and quietly and she wouldn't come (I always shared eventually of course). But when she heard the sound of a green pepper on the board it was on. I could go on and on but point being, some are truly just irreplaceable.

    Dog's legacy lives on in the Fallout universe's "Dogmeat" (who in all except for Fallout 3 is immortal), Rex in Fallout New Vegas (who is a stand-in for Dogmeat) and "Dinky Di" from the Mad Max game. I forget the name of a steampunk rpg game I played once (it was about 5 computers ago), but it also features an overt nod to Dog. Also, it's good to know he had a good life after the movie.

My girl is intense, stubborn and mega-intelligent but she’s also the best cuddler in my pack. She has slept next to my head literally every night for the past 5 1/2 years she has owned me. Not the breed for everyone but worth the adventure.

    I had an Australian Shepard that very much fits the personality of the "dog" in this story, and like Dog he was a rescue but he was only about 4 months old when I got him, he was absolutely fearless he was adored by everyone everywhere we went and all the other dogs wanted to be like him, it was amazing the way he'd take over as the leader when you'd take him around an established pack of dogs, in 5 minutes he'd be the new alpha, he just had this energy and charm that was infectious that made him 100% rock star everywhere we went, and he was a little f%&ker, he was always into something or doing something that was borderline criminal, I used to say all the time "I swear that little f$#ker's one little mustache away from invading Poland". The stories about him are endless and epic to put it mildly, like the time he battled it out with an Osprey in our back yard over a fish the bird had caught in the river that was just downstream from a creek in a gully behind out house, poor thing landed in our backyard just wanting to eat it's lunch after working so hard to get it but it ended up sitting on a limb that overhung our backyard screeching and watching Hunter run around tossing his fish up in the air taunting him with it, of course it wound up on my roof and I had to get a ladder out before it turned into a fishcicle because it was the middle of winter, or the time my girlfriend at the time was planting flowers at the same time he was running laps around the house and everytime he came galloping through the flower garden he'd snatch one she'd just planted and then turn around not understanding why she didn't seem to be making any progress, I was watching through a window laughing my ass off through the whole thing barely able to contain myself, after about the third one she turned and saw him running around the corner of the house with that flower hanging out of his mouth and started screaming, just like the Osprey did. I've had some dogs in my life but there'll never be another one like him, he was one of those personalities you run across once in a lifetime if you're lucky and I'll always thank my lucky stars that I got to share his life with a part of mine, when him and I were living in that house I consider them to be the best years of my life, I love my dogs I have now but there'll never be another one like him. Hunter passed away about a year before I moved out of that house and back to my home state of Pennsylvania, everyone said I should have had him cremated so I could keep him with me but I felt burying him up there in the yard at the edge of the gully behind the house was more appropriate, he loved that place and was always standing guard over it and me, and it was the best kind of place for him to live with it's huge yards he had to run around in and always "monitor", oh yea it was his place and he had no quams about letting anyone know it was, God rest his soul.

    Our family had an Australian Blue Heeler named "Blue". Her fur was black but looked a blue hue in the sunlight. One of the most loyal dogs a person can own. Although she only lived to 12 years of age on a diet of Canadian kibble, the oldest dog ever recorded was Bluey, an Australian cattle dog who lived in Rochester, Victoria, Australia. Bluey lived 29 years and 5 months. She had a very active life working with sheep and cattle, which may have contributed to her longevity.

I'm so jealous, I miss my Bluey, and he was a classic looking dog, not like this show junk you see these days. You don't see many old school, proper blueys these days.

    I can't stress enough to you guy's in Australia the cultural impact that the Mad Max franchise had here in America, the term "Road Warrior" to this day is used to describe any kind of bad ass car or motorcycle that's rough in appearance but still runs like a raped ape. A while back I watched a documentary called Not Quite Hollywood about the movie industry in Australia, particularly what's called "The Australian New Wave era" of movie making and came to understand that Mad Max was a product of an entire movement of movie making in Australia that started in the early 70's, since then I've been looking up and finding places to stream those movies like Stork, Alvin Purple, The Cars That Ate Paris, Picnic at Hanging Rock and a favorite of mine Oz, A Rock and Roll Road Story. I love those movies, they're all great and watching them to me is like getting to relive the 70's because I lived in that time but I've never seen them before, so everytime I see one for the first time it's like being transported back through time to the 70's, and the fact that Bruce Spence who's one of my favorite Australian actors is in a good bit of them is an added bonus, tracking down and watching those movies is my latest thing in life. It's funny that as I sit here typing this a movie just a few years old is on that has Jacki Weaver in it, star of some of those movies like Stork, Alvin Purple and Picnic at Hanging Rock among others. Those movies from that era, that movement in Australian film making are so great and I'm so glad I've discovered them especially in this era of all the remanufactured rebooted junk that's coming out of Hollywood.

I was 17 when The Road Warrior came out and I first saw it here in the US and like most people my age was instantly taken in by it, all of us were trying to figure out what kind of car it was he had and were trying to figure out how to get one, it being the pre internet days we'd never seen one and didn't understand that companies like Ford and GM had subsidiaries in Australia that designed and made cars unique to Australia, there'd been Ford Falcons here in America but they were different chassis and from what I gather after they were discontinued here in the states that freed up Ford of Australia to use that name for a model of theirs, it's also to my understanding the Australian Falcons were built on the basic Mustang chassis just with a different body style, either way after that movie came out we'd have loved to get them here in the states, that car became an instant icon. Another big Australian influence here in America from back in those days that made a huge cultural impact here in the states was AC/DC of course, we'd had some exposure to their music in the 70's but when Back in Black came out in 1980 it ripped through every high school in America like a wildfire and overnight made AC/DC a household name, I've never seen an album explode like that one did, it instantly became a "must have" for everyone in high school and became an instant classic.

My brother had a Holden GTR XU1 in the eighties, a direct competitor to Ford. It's all about the Ford Holden rivalry. The government put a stop to such cars when Ford released the Australian GT, it was the fastest production sedan in the world at the time. Please make sure you watch Wake in Fright, no film has had an impact on me like that, ever. Another sort of car movie (dark) is Metal Skin of the 90s. It features Ben Mendelsohn. Another sort of car movie he did was The Big Steal, very funny. My boss saw AC/DC with Bon (I was born in '77). Yes it's amazing what Back in Black did in the states, you've gotta hand it to Brian, boy did he take the reigns. I have also watched countless reactions to AC/DC, again, in my blood. Great speaking with you, and it would be good if we could keep in touch. BTW other early Mel movies are Summer City, 'Tim' with Piper Laurie (she starred in The Hustler with Paul Newman) and Gallipoli, of course. Gallipoli is a masterpiece, as too Wake in Fright. Check em out. Sorry for the overload.

    @@arconeagain Oh yea, Gallipoli is an excellent movie and I've been a fan of it since I first saw it in 81, another good Mel movie from back then is The Year of Living Dangerously 1982 with Sigourney Weaver and especially Lina Hunt who won the Academy Award for her portrayal of a man, Billy Qwan in it. 1981 was a fantastic year for movies, Dragonslayer The Road Warrior Gallipoli Escape From New York Time Bandits Raiders of the Lost Ark And the list just goes on and on for that year, it could quite possibly be the greatest year ever in the history of movies, there's just too many to list from that year that are fantastic.

    I was 11 or 12 in 1982 and saw this in the theater with my family. Only years later would I realize dad took us to the wrong movie. Just like Raiders of the Lost Ark and the scenes leading up to rolling boulder in the first 10 minutes, it was immediately my favorite movie. As soon as Max was on the freeway after the Ferril Kid described the past, I was hooked.

    Being the car crazy kid I was, my best friend and I were nuts when we first saw Mad Max. Then the sequel was even more over the top. But I was even more dog crazy than anything else. I thought Dog was such a badass pup. Rough and tumble, damn near indestructible. Jump forward a few decades and I was presented the chance opportunity to take in a blue heeler as a re-home rescue. Damn straight I jumped at the chance. Five years later I’m a hard-core heeler guy. It has been a blast having her in my life. I love my little velociraptor so damn much. A total PITA at times but I wouldn’t trade her for the universe.

So glad the algorithm sent me your way. He may not have survived the Movie, but he lived in our gruff wasteland hearts. Cheers Dog, fetch the Gyrocopters scarf forever in Doggie heaven - which is where i'd rather go to.
