Behind-the-scenes highlights of Mad Max 2

There is a scene where Max eats dog food. Canned dog food is marked with the word "butyl di" In Australian slang, "Dinki-Di" means "truth".

The film was renamed Road Warrior when it was released in North America, because the first film in the same series was only released in parts of North America, and Crazy Max 2 was bound to confuse the audience.

Because American audiences are not familiar with mel gibson, there are not many pictures about mel gibson in the trailer, but a lot of chase and action scenes.

In the "Crazy Max" series, only two interceptors were used. A car was used in the first episode, and this car also appeared in this film, which was used to shoot the interior and close-ups. Later, it was bought and successfully restored, and now it is displayed in the "Movie Car Museum" in Britain. The other car was specially made for the car chase scene in the sequel. According to the plot in the script, it was destroyed and the wreckage was later stolen. The Interceptor, which appeared in the Hollywood Planet Resort Center in Sydney, is a replica and has never appeared in any of the films in this series.

In the film, the black interceptor driven by Mel Gibson is actually a Ford Falcon XB GT coupe, which can only be found in Australia. Only a few cars are exported to New Zealand and Britain, but they are not found in North America at all. Interceptor only produced 949 cars, which is the dream collection of car collectors all over the world. So far, there are more than 65,438+000 cars in the United States, some of which are imported and some are replicas.

In the film, Max's dog was selected and trained from the local animal shelter. Because the engine sound of the motorcycle would make him fidgety, the crew specially made earplugs for him. After the film was finished, the dog was adopted by a photographer.

The scripts of this series of films are inspired by Kurosawa's Japanese samurai films and Joseph Campbell's "Heroes with Thousand Faces".

This film was the most expensive Australian film at that time.
