Divergent - Took me quite a while before I could tell five of the white guys apart.
Clearly not a movie for me then. I have the devil's own time remembering characters in any video. I often have to ask my wife is s/he the one who ..... ?

Is there a chance you have prosopagnosia? It was a revelation to me when I found out this was a thing, and I think I may have a mild form of it. Often, I don't recognise people out of context. So if I see a work colleague outside of the office (even on lunch break), I often don't recognise them. People changing their hairstyle or wearing sunglasses can look like a completely different person. I've even been known to completely 'ignore' family members and mistake one for the other (which was pretty embarrassing).Clearly not a movie for me then.

So.... true to life then?. The former gets his own theme song -- "I Love You, Joe Walker" -- which offers a hint that his main superpower is the fact that women find him irresistible. Evidence: As soon as he meets the movie's Good Girl, he kisses her, and she gives him her car. Further evidence: As soon as he kisses the movie's Bad Girl, she immediately turns into a Good Girl and helps him overthrow the supervillain.

"Mad Max" was so poorly received here that it's sequel was billed simply as "The Road Warrior," with no mention that it was a sequel. When "Beyond Thunderdome" hit, most here in the states, myself included, thought it was the second in the series, not the third.Mad Max 2. Continuing on from the first film the world has degenerated to bands of bandits and savages scavenging fuel to keep their war vehicles running. I still love this film. The vehicles are works of violent art and you can't help but feel a profound sense of loss when Max's GT Falcon goes up in flames. Even though the world has turned to crap there is an underlying sense of hope to the film.
On a side note, I learned a little history about Mad Max as there was an introduction to the film by Leonard Maltin. I never knew that the first film wasn't well-received in America, that it had been dubbed to get rid of the Aussi accents and that Mad Max didn't get any traction in the US until this second film was released.
