Friday Watch Party: Mad Max - Beyond Thunderdome

Last week we lost world-famous musician and performer Tina Turner.  

Turner didn't appear in that many films, but she was in a starring role in the least likely of films, the third Mad Max installment, Beyond Thunderdome.  She plays the mayor-figure and matriarch of a town in post-apocalyptic Australia, and she has magnificent earrings.  

Opinions vary on Turner in the film, but we've been team-Aunty Entity since we literally jumped into a van full of kids being taken to the movie at the local cinema.  But this is also, simply, a pro-Tina Turner household.

Day:  June 2, 2023

Time:  8:30 Central, 6:30 Pacific

Runtime:  107 minutes

Cost:  $4.29 HD / $3.79 SD

I'm realizing I saw this when I was 10, and, hoo-boy.  My parents were paying zero attention to what I was watching as a kid.

Well.  I was going to watch it eventually.  

Danny (of Superheroes Every Day) and I talk the 2023 critical kryptonite and box office disappointment that is one of Marvel's greatest missteps to date.  Join us as we pick up this particular dud and keep turning it over to figure out what worked, what didn't, and how this thing even came out of Marvel Studios.
