    The first Mad Max movie is literally just a cop (Max) fighting against a deadly biker gang in a small town. The second movie didn’t say anything about an apocalypse, it was just set in a desert wasteland.

    It was the American (maybe international?) version of Mad Max 2 that added a prologue about an apocalyptic world event.

    So yeah, in the original Australian version, this may just be some lawless hicks surviving in the Australian desert, while the rest of the world continues on like normal.

    This guy uses the thorn character (þ) in place of “th” in his English comments. It’s basically the same sound, just a different way to type it.

    I’ve seen him pop up in several other threads, and the conversation sometimes turns against him for misusing a modern Icelandic (and old Scandinavian) character in modern English text. He sometimes gets downvoted for it.

    EDIT: I just glanced at his profile and he gets downvoted a lot. Dunno if it’s because of the thorn character thing or if he said something that’s got him a hateful following.
