When it comes to movies about my childhood memories I remember these three: Star Wars, Alien, Mad Max.
In the beginning of 2000s Star Wars made its return with Episode 1 and I still remember how I was excited in the theatre while watching it. I was 7 or 8 when I first watched it and of course it was a great return for me to have the same experience again.
Alien on the other hand was not that much satisfactory. For me, Alien 3 was a major hit therefore in the next episode the expectation was higher. But Alien: Resurrection - I mean what was it ? A bunch of synchronized swimming aliens can scare us now ? But I knew why it failed, because all of 4 were directed by different directors.
And finally, Mad Max.. George Miller must have been born to make this art piece for sure. Such a brilliant idea and an epic story with an anti hero lead. The new generation met Mel Gibson when he was William Wallace, but way years a go, he got made his breakthrough when he was Max, the mad cop of Australia roads.
Mad Max: Fury Road is probably the best masterpiece that a movie director could do after three decades! Even people has no idea about the original story must love it ! I am always happy and feel hopeful when I see such great efforts in movie industry as what George Miller did. A few weeks I go I was cursing Hollywood movies and I am now very happy to see that I am still wrong :)
