Date Sold 5/18/2014Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 3 Original 1982 Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Movie Stills (Learn More) Mad Max 2 (released in the U.S. in 1982 as "The Road Warrior"), the 1981 George Miller Australian post-apocalyptic action thriller sequel ("Just one man can make a difference."; "In the future, cities will become deserts, roads will become battlefields and the hope of mankind will appear as a stranger."; "When all that's left is one last chance, pray that he's still out there ...somewhere!"; "Mad Max meets the challenge!"; "Written by Terry Hayes, George Miller with Brian Hannant"; "Music conducted and composed by Brian May"; in the first Mad Max, it is supposedly set in the mid 1980s, right after an apocalyptic war; this movie is supposedly set just a few years after that, and yet the entire world has massively broken down; even more confusing, in a later entry in the series, it is said that the apocalyptic war took place between the first and second film, not before the first; however, if you're looking for realism and a coherent timeline, you're probably not a big fan of this series!) starring Mel Gibson (in the title role as Mad Max Rockatansky), Bruce Spence (as The Gyro Captain), Michael Preston (as Pappagallo), Max Phipps (as The Toadie), Vernon Wells (as Wez), Kjell Nilsson (as The Humungus), Emil Minty (as The Feral Kid), and Virginia Hey. Note that this movie was first released in Australia as a sequel to Mad Max, and was titled Mad Max 2. The movie was a giant hit and distributors wanted to release it in the U.S., but since the first movie had only had a very limited release in the U.S., they re-titled it so as to not confuse audiences (but they printed a limited number of international "Mad Max 2" one-sheets in the U.S., which are far more rare than the "The Road Warrior" U.S. one-sheets). NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that one of these stills measures 7 3/4" x 9 1/2" but has not been trimmed. Note that two of these stills appear in every way to be original U.S. release EXCEPT that there is one very tiny line of French type in the lower right of each still. It reads, "IMPRIME AUX ETATS-UNIS D'AMERIQUE". A collector has told us that he believes this means the stills were printed for use in areas that included French-speaking parts of Canada, but that they WERE printed in the U.S., and that makes complete sense to us! So they are original stills from 1981, but they were printed partially for use in French-speaking Canada. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here.
