Mel Gibson to old ?

Post by Bad cop »

Everyone is saying that Mel Gibson is to old for the part of Max for Mad Max 4,I don't thonk that because in Beyond Thunderdome Max is in his 50's and in real life Mel Gibson is 48 to 49.So I don't think he's to old for the part.

Thats what the Beyond Thunderdome novel said.It kind of does look he is in his fifties because his hair has faded a little and it's white by his ears.

I thought he was more like 40.





26 in MM1


29 in MM2


40-45 in MM3.

Good point..... I'm referring to the Character Max not Mel.


MFP's TOP Pursuit Officer would be a little more experienced at 26 than at 21.

Hes not to old, hell they want Harrison Ford to do another Indiana Jones movie too. But if they do make a MM4 it will have to be some sort of prequel if it doesn't have Gibson in it, otherwise it just wont work.

According to some artikals about MM4 Mel wil be playing in the 4th movie. He said it himself
"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.
