byslantedlightI thought it was only supposed to last for the morning too, but it's been all day...
It's been a busy week - and I'm all behind in replying to comments again, I'm sorry. Tomorrow, or Sunday at the latest cos there's a vague chance that there might be moments tomorrow when it doesn't rain, and my legs are all wanting-to-be-out-of-the-house-ish. *g* Definitely not enough exercise today!
Today I finished work and finally crashed to watch Mad Max: Fury Road. I wasn't entirely sure what to expect - I loved the Mel Gibson ones (though only the first one in the original un-dubbed version - grrr!), and they don't seem that long ago, and... but I thought they did a really good job. They didn't try and copy the originals, they took it somewhere else completely. And so good to see strong female characters - I hadn't been expecting that! Anyone else seen it?

RE: un-dubbed version
Date: Saturday, 30 January 2016 09:12 am (UTC)I've never seen it on DVD or VHS, only on telly - and that was definitely Australian.
I would say America thinks the world is American, but I'm beginning to think it's just the TV/Film execs these days - the Americans I meet online seem very attuned to the fact that there's a whole other world out there, where people don't just look foreign - they actually are foreign. With whole other ways of doing things.
Good to know there's a dodgy version out there though - I shall avoid!
