This 2013 twist on post-apocalyptic, message-heavy SF comes from Korea and takes its inspiration from a French comic, but most of its characters speak English and it stars the MCU’s Captain America.

The latest round of voting takes place here. I hope to have preliminary inclusions and eliminations available for week 14. It’s all a matter of my limited free time.
It has been almost 30 years since the last Mad Max movie. Since then Director George Miller has done a variety of children’s films, in some form or another involving talking animals.
