Was anybody able to catch this video that was put up by various Australian news sites a few hours ago but has since been taken down? Can't find it cached anywhere. The thumbnail looks pretty interesting. I presume it's Furiosa related.

I didn't think it was possible but they really wiped that article almost completely from the Internet.

Best I could do is find a brief summary of the article:

"Chris Hemsworth makes MAD MAX a family affair, with his wife Elsa Pataky, their children and his father Craig Hemsworth all taking part in the filming of a dystopian scene in Sydney."

That looks like the biker horde mentioned in the recent synopsis released. Is that Chris Hemmsworth with a big red beard and long hair?

Please tell me this is a joke, right??
I'm completely shocked by the looks of these characters. This can't be true :cry:

I don't know if this guy with the red long hair and the beard is Hemmsworth but for heavens sake he looks rather like a dwarf from the Hobbit than a badass biker in a Mad Max movie. And what's up with this bloke with the birds nest on his head?? :shock:
The heck, he looks like a cheap knockoff of a 'Waterworld' baddie and Waterworld back then was already a cheap knockoff of a Mad Max movie...

Currently you see me a little bit worried. I hope Miller knows what he is doing.

Strange characters. That still photo of Chris with the red hair has more the style of several 100 years ago.
But it happens more often that the end result looks very different from the images you see during filming. I've seen this fist hand when I was on the set of Iron Sky: the Coming Race.
"UNDERSTEER" is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
"OVERSTEER" is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car.
"HORSEPOWER" is how fast you hit the fence.
"TORQUE" is how far you take the fence with you.

That's the organic mechanic!

I wouldn't judge the looks to much yet. Road Warrior made bondage costumes work and Thunderdome made hockey pads and Mohawks into the iconic wasteland look. Some people were also very critical of the Warboy look before Fury Road. Immortan looked a bit silly in pictures but worked very well when on the screen.

Remember Chris's look is early in the film. Something very bad happens to him to change his appearance ;)

Looks like there is a cage with some captured warboys. They weren't lying when they said it was a biker horde!
