Spuds MacKenzie. Spuds MacKenzie is a fictional dog character created for use in an extensive advertising campaign marketing Bud Light beer in the late 1980s. The Spuds MacKenzie mascot and campaign were created by a 23 year old art director, Jon Moore. At the time he was working at Needham, Harper & Steers a Chicago Illinois advertising agency.
But it makes for a flimsy system of analysis in the real world. That problem is illustrated perfectly by the many troubles that transpired when Mad Max: Fury Road, the fourth installment of the franchise, was filmed in Namibia in July-November 2012.
Deadline reports that the rebooted Mad Max: Fury Road will be released May 15, 2015, with its original director at the helm. By then, it will have been 30 years since Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome was released â it was preceded by the original Mad Max in 1979 and The Road Warrior in 1981. Mel Gibson will also be back for the 3-D reunion, though not in the title role. That honor is going to none other than Tom Hardy, who we can only hope finds just as obscure an inspiration for his accent as he did for Bain. Nicholas Hoult and Charlize Theron round out the cast of exceedingly good looking non-Aussies.
