Praetorian Jack was a better Mad Max than Tom Hardy was

Not only did Tom Burke look more like Mel Gibson than Tom Hardy did, but the character was portrayed in a manner much more akin to what I expected/would've preferred Max to be in Fury Road.

I understand that it was their intent to make Max more animalistic and feral than he's ever been in that film, but the way Hardy portrayed him with that weird accent and overly gruff voice, made him seem far too removed from the Max of the original trilogy IMO. Even after the Max of that film supposedly regains his humanity towards the end, Hardy still speaks with that caveman-like grunt.

Praetorian Jack on the other hand, while also a tough, no-nonsense badass, also had traces of charisma and charm to him which made him feel much more akin to Mel Gibson's Max. He's the character we should've seen onscreen at a certain point in Fury Road when Max begins becoming more accepting of the group of women he's helping, yet is nowhere near present in the actual film. Hell, even the clothes Praetorian Jack wore seems more in line with what Max wore in the first two films than what Hardy wore.

Who's with me?
