But, you also really don’t need it at all. However, if you’re first entering the series at this point, you get a brief recap as to who Max is. Yes, we have the further adventures of ex officer Max Rockatasnky and the further desolation of the post apocalyptic wasteland world established in the original. The Road Warrior is successful in both being a sequel and its very own film. In a rare case, there’s not really any dispute. Its the only one that doesn’t have Max in the title, but moreso its also its miles ahead of its predecessor and it successor. Unintentionally, its significant that its just more that really sets this film apart from the others. ![]() Simply put, they branded the film, The Road Warrior.

Those familiar know I do this kind of thing for my Naptown Nerd blog, but I thought since this one started over here at Why So Blu that I would just see the whole thing out here.

This will just be a piece minus all the tech specs and recommendation. No, this won’t be a review of the Blu-ray that has been out forever (Fun Fact: It was the fifth Blu-ray to be put in my collection).
