True that about the general audience. We'll see I guess. I notice my theater added more shows today, dropping some Avengers showings to make room. Seems like theater owners might be sensing more business than anticipated.

Now it's 76 and 1 at RT. What's even more telling is the 'Average Rating' which now stands at 9/10. That's almost unheard of from a tentpole movie.

"Vagina Monologues Writer Eve Ensler: How Mad Max: Fury Road Became a ‘Feminist Action Film’"
Here’s a surprise: Tom Hardy, a.k.a. Mad Max, isn’t the star of Mad Max: Fury Road. Charlize Theron is. An even bigger surprise? Vagina Monologues author Eve Ensler consulted on what turns out to be a very feminist film.

I have gotten a bit emotional reading all of these reviews, I'll admit.
It blew me away when I saw it, but you never know how others are going to react. It's like having the rest of the world tell you that your child really is special.

At least his review is more thorough compared to the tabloid trash, even if some of his points were off the mark. lol

I'm loving the comments on his review at the bottom of the page , no one agrees with him , he should meet up with David Edwards and they can both pull wings off butterflies in their lonely world :lol:

Now, after it premiered here in Europe, the amount of ratings on IMDb is going up rapidly. But it went down from 9.3 to 9.0
"UNDERSTEER" is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
"OVERSTEER" is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car.
"HORSEPOWER" is how fast you hit the fence.
"TORQUE" is how far you take the fence with you.
