I really, really want to see this too. I hope it has as much old school stunt driving as possible and as little CGI as possible.

I think those days are behind us.

I am not expecting much from this movie. I hope I am pleasantly surprised.

Update: I just took a look at the trailer. It looks to me like it is mostly CGI.

Preview looks like a video game to me.

Based on the trailer, I doubt there will be too many real cars doing any stunts.

Too expensive and hazardous for today’s movie producers.

According to the director, it does:

'Mad Max: Fury Road' director George Miller wary of using 'too much CG'

Yeah, Mad Max is not a superhero. We don’t defy the laws of physics, it’s not a fantasy film. It’s basically a western on wheels. And I think if people see, I know when I see too much CG, that sort of takes me out of the experience. You want to have that sort of almost, I’m not going to say documentary experience, but you want to feel it like you’re really immersed, like it’s really happening. So we decided to literally do every car that’s smashed is smashed, every stunt is a real human being, even the actors do a lot of their own stunts, and so on.
