I like to think that I am a pretty good driver. I first got my license over 13 years ago, and in that time, I have never been in a car accident or even been given a speeding ticket. Driving is fun for me. But I've never been the kind of person who has wanted to drive some highly powered sports car really fast down an open highway or go off-road in some behemoth to prove how rugged I am. A nice drive at a reasonable speed. That's good for me.
So I could never work on a "Mad Max" movie. The amount of skill, dexterity, trust in your collaborators, and love of thrills required to succeed in George Miller's high-octane apocalyptic world would be far too much for most people. I know I couldn't deal with the pressure and...

Someanniversaries are more shocking than others. This one blew our minds. Thirty yearsago today the universe-changing network MTV debuted. We remember televisionmilestones like some people connect to graduations or winning the big game. Forus the day we got cable was a victory — all those shows at our fingertips.
We werelucky back in Braintree, Massachusetts, prior to getting the official musictelevision station, we had access to a local network called V-66 that showedshorts from a range of artists from international acts to Boston-based bands.It was amazing, but it didn’t have rock stars like Mick Jagger and Pete Townshendimploring us to get it.
Once we gotit, MTV was always on in our house and we loved every overly hairsprayed,spandex-clad pop singer or metal band that came our way. We remember gatheringwith our friends when Thriller premiered — and watching it every time it airedon our sets.
Then theunimaginable happened.
