{{quote|''In the roar of an engine, he lost everything. And became a shell of a man, a burnt-out, desolate man, a man haunted by the demons of his past, a man who wandered out into the wasteland. And it was here, in this blighted place, that he learned to live again...''|'''The Narrator''', '''''Mad Max 2''''', [[Opening Monologue]]}}
 
A series of films that constitute the most famous things to come out of [[Useful Notes/Australia (continent)|Australia]] since kangaroos and sexy women with accents. Starring [[Mel Gibson]] in his Australian accent as the title character 'Mad' Max Rockatansky.
 
The first film, ''Mad Max'', was made with practically no money and released in 1979. Although it was surprisingly successful in Australia it was barely noticed in America - in fact, in the original American release all the characters' voices were dubbed with American accents because distributors [[Viewers are Morons|thought the audience wouldn't understand what they were saying]]. In the first film, Max Rockatansky is a cop with the Main Force Patrol in a town that is barely clinging to civilisation, with a wife and young son -- until he loses everything, and then goes on a [[Roaring Rampage of Revenge]] in the film's climax.
