Favorite Movie Sidekicks. No, not comic relief!....

Max was truly a loner in MAD MAX: BEYOND THUNDERDOME, he didn't even have the car.

Considering that he had three cars in MAD MAX, does that really count?

The car was destroyed in THE ROAD WARRIOR.

He did have his trusty sawed-off.

Now ,now...much as i like good gadgets, unless it has an A.I. like KITT, i'll not allow it.
A good sidekick can argue and fuss, but he/she'll still back up the hero when the fertilizer hits the ventilator.
KITT does that...a Max's shotgun, while usefull, does not.
If it ain't earning a paycheck from the studio, i say "No fair."

How about the motorcycle in Warrior Of The Lost World then? The one that repeated everything in that cutsey voice (Einstein?)

[Jack Corbett]

Great...

I've started up an argument on Mad Max.

s**t...

I could argue long and hard all day on Mad Max and Road Warrior but you are right Jack, this thread has gone slightly off kilter.

So, Flange, we can't count the sawed-off or the Falcon but 'Dog' is still in, right?

[Flangepart]

Right! The Bike from W of the L W is okey, cause it had a mind of its own...a very ANNOYING mind...but a mind nonetheless.
Dog is cool too. I'm a dog person, and i say, a liveing sidekick is Kosher...even if he does lick his butt.

In Beyond Thunderdome he picked up the kids, and the slave from the pit :"Pig Killer".  The crazy kid with the face paint could be a sidekick.

Dont forget the monkey that throws him the boots.

[Master Blaster]

That brings up an interesting point however. Is KITT really the sidekick of Michael Knight or is Michael Knight really the sidekick of KITT.

Listen now...there's no call for even mentioning Beyond Thunderdome...what did I ever do to you? I hated that movie and it shouldn't even be counted as part of the other 2. Tina Turner? No cars? Annoying kids? Bruce Spence in similar yet different part? Angry midgets turned to good? No cars? Train chase instead of car chase? Wimpy Max character? Did I mention no cars? What the Hell where they thinking? I gotta go vomit.

Beyond Thunderdome is deffinately a bad movie. Despite my screen name I'm not a big fan of Beyond Thunderdome. It's sorta the big budget cheezy one that ruined Mad Max. Captain Walker and all those p***y kids can lick my butt.

Viiviiiiviiiddddeeeoooo SHADDAAPP!!

Does that help? (:

Monkeys as sidekicks don't count.  I personally think there should be a movie with a smart monkey/car/mororcycle and a stupid human sidekick.
