"this dystopian nightmare figures the MFP (Main Force Patrol) into a post-apocalyptic world" Can you figure something into something? I'm not sure that makes any sense. And I think Max does have a last name. Hang on. Yup. He does. Christ, all you had to do was Google Mad Max. Nice work, Josh.

Shouldn't that be "access to the film in Indonesia"?

Personally, I think "emblazons" works a little better than "emboldens" in this context.

It's "coop", not "coup". Unless you were going for a devastatingly subtle play on words. That would have been reasonably clever. Judging from the savaging you've given the English language in the previous frames, though, I'm guessing not.

"Max (he doesn’t have a last name) doesn’t say much." have you even seen the film? he gets called Rotoanski more than Max in it? and the still you have is well known as being a promo for Mad Max 2.

Hmm, yes. See, with Max I went with the credits on the first flick, which didn't list a surname for our hero. If it's good enough for George Miller, it's good enough for me. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0079501/ As for the Max 2 still, obvious guff. Just loved the picture too much.
