What a lovely day, indeed. It’s been 30 years since we ventured out into the Wasteland with “Mad” Max Rockatansky, 34 if you’re not counting the time he went Beyond Thunderdome. Who could blame you? With 30 years worth of hope and nearly 20 years of promise from series creator George Miller, a new adventure in Mad Max’s dusty, brutal world had better deliver the goods. That adventure is now here for our sensory feasting. Mad Max: Fury Road delivers on your every, post-apocalyptic wish and with an endless supply of visual insanity. What more could you possibly hope for in Miller’s vision for the world after the fall? ›››

Don’t worry, the dinosaurs won’t eat you. This new park is totally safe! Trust us, we’re InGen. Come see the deadly dinosaurs, you’ll be fine. Ha. Universal has debuted a fantastic new video on YouTube that plays as a viral video from InGen Technologies, the company responsible for creating the Jurassic Park and all the dinosaurs within in. In the video, you’ll see actor BD Wong as Dr. Henry Wu explaining the technology and processes behind their operation. It’s almost like a job video, come work for us! Look what we do! Though of course we all know that it’s going to get crazy in Jurassic World and something is going to go wrong. “That’s what being today, tomorrow is.” This reminds me a bit of the Weyland TED Talk, which is one of my faves. ›››

“We’re here to rob the bank… Don’t be a hero!” Lionsgate has debuted an official US trailer for American Heist, an action-thriller-drama from Armenian filmmaker Sarik Andreasyan starring Adrien Brody and Hayden Christensen as brothers with troubled pasts who get dragged into another bank robbery. It’s yet another bank robbers need to leave their past but get caught up in one more job kind of movie, complete with the face mask heist and everything. Jordana Brewster, Tory Kittles and Akon also star in the film. It honestly doesn’t look that great, yet another bland version of this same old story, but you never know. ›››

I love this guy’s art so much I’m proud to say I have one of his pieces on my wall. There’s a new show from artist “Raid71” opening at the fantastic Bottleneck Gallery in Brooklyn, NY this weekend. The show is called “Illuminate” and focuses on his unique style with vivid colors. His pieces are inspired heavily by Blade Runner, but he also has work from Tron, Taxi Driver, Midnight Cowboy, Dark City, Akira, Mean Streets, The Fisher King and more. He does some excellent work, and it really stands out on a wall, it’s the kind that you want to buy and hang everywhere. Luckily we’ve got an early look at some art from the show. ›››

Briefly: As Caesar said, war has begun. We all knew it was coming, but now it’s official. Collider is reporting the next Planet of the Apes movie will be titled War of the Planet of the Apes, so from here on out that’s how we’ll be referring to it. This is the third movie in the new series started by Rupert Wyatt with Rise of the Planet of the Apes, which continued the Caesar storyline into Dawn of the Planet of the Apes directed by Matt Reeves, now it’s War of the Planet of the Apes due in 2017, also directed by Matt Reeves. He says: “As this story continues, we know that war is not avoided by the end of Dawn. That is going to take us into the world of what he is grappling with. Where [Caesar] is going to be thrust into circumstances that he never, ever wanted to deal with, and was hoping he could avoid. And now he is right in the middle of it.”
