I know the odds of getting many – if any – replies with this cult classic are not very good. I probably should’ve done one on typing Britney Spears. Maybe I will someday…

You're probably right as far as I can tell. I've seen Mad Max 2 maybe 10 times. I'm pretty sure Max and The Gyro Captain are right.
Mad Max 1 is a better movie I think. :D Darker.

Max was not an ISTP, he was ISTJ. He was a former cop who was preoccupied with contracts (in the world of anarchy) and was strong armed into "doing the right thing" by a bunch of fucking hippie looking twats.

Also, all the other characters were not well rounded enough to be typed accurately.

Well, if you would name the topic "Mad Max" I would immediately know what movie you were talking about. I haven't seen any of the movies in ages so I wouldn't know.

I still say he's ISTP. Especially the first movie. Read this.

I read that, and I don't know how that helps the case with him being an ISTP.

Anyway, I enjoyed the first movie, but let's be honest, it wasn't exactly "character driven"

Car crashes + cop's vengeance = Mad Max 1

That's what made it great! Nothing sweeter than revenge.

Well if you liked 15 minutes of revenge in Mad Max, you're going to LOVE 90 minutes of revenge in Taken.

Thanks! I love revenge movies. I asked for suggestions here. I'm working through the list. Taken looks pretty good too.

I enjoyed Taken. I wish Liam Neeson would narrate my life. Although I liked the uncut Euro version much better than the over-edited US version.

I see Max as an ISTP in both films. I’m not sure what you mean by him being “preoccupied with contracts” in the 1st. He was a road intercept cop at the end of civilization. Those guys were always dealing with unpredictable situations. Max was a textbook SP temperament who adapted quickly to changing circumstances.
