The Wasteland Post...News You Can't Use.

Charlize Theron: Mad Maxine?

Could Charlize Theron be the next post apocalyptic goddess for Mad Max 4? Mad Max 3 Thunderdome was somewhat a disappointment when it was released in the eighties but the very highly popular post apocalyptic franchise is far from toast. There are rumblings in the wastelands of the outback as casting rumors that Charlize Theron maybe on board for a new Mad Max sequel. Perhaps Mad Max 4 could be coming to a shelter near you sooner than you think... Checkout this MTV article about a possible Mad Max 4...

NBC's "Day One" reduced in scope...

NBC's new anticipated post apocalyptic TV series 'DAY ONE' was slated to be a full TV Series this FALL but was slimmed down to a 4 hr mini series for early next year. Although the series has been cut down if it makes a big splash with viewers the network is prepared to move full ahead with a complete series. Could it have the making of a BSG debut?

Welcome to The Aftermath Show

My weekly blogtalkradio show is dedicated to the post apocalyptic genre. The post apocalyptic genre crosses many boundries although it is normally classified as a sub genre of Science fiction but as you will learn the P-A genre dosn't easily fit in one specific film genre. I have been fascinated with the post apocalyptic genre since the seventies with films like Damnation Alley,A Boy And His Dog and also books like The Stand and Alas Babylon.

So bear with me as I continue to update this site with new content and news and in the meantime checkout my blogtalkradio show http://www.blogtalkradio.com/theaftermath
