I'm trying to tie up a logical chronology of all Mad Max movies. Do you think it makes sense to assume that Beyond the Thunderdome takes place 13 years after the apocalypse? And Fury Road 20 (Being Max 42 or 43 in that movie)?
This "tell", in my opinion, is one of the best and most memorable monologues and scenes in movie history. The language, the presentation, and the delivery by Helen Buday is so beautifully and skillfully executed, making it believable to the audience. Pretty damn incredible for a first movie role. It makes me wish for a Mad Max spin-off about "The Waiting Ones".
Sorry, I just found it cringe. Thunderdome jumped the shark considering Mad Max 1 was basically modern times but in collapse. 20 years later they are talking like they've been tribal for 100 years.
This is pretty Terrible and cring. the tell is just a television. They fashioned twigs and leaves to make a Television. It's no different than if someone held on to a conch she'll for speaking. Even shows like Rick and Morty, and Solior Opposites have made fun of the way they speak. "In the before fore times" and the "boomy bombs". I laugh at this scene.
This scene is great because it represents one half of the overall theme of this film. "Mad Max : Beyond Thunderdome" shows both sides of human beings as a species, the good and the bad. On one hand, we have a great capacity for acquiring and preserving knowledge. "The Tell of Captain Walker" scene shows that in it's most ancient form; the spoken word. This scene also shows our species great strength of forming strong familial bonds through a tribal culture. "Barter Town" represents our species at it's worst, conniving and backstabbing, using our language and forged relationships to cheat and deceive. Clearly George Miller chose to show this dichotomy by having children represent "the good" and adults to represent "the bad", with Max square in the middle. BRILLIANT!
Im a big Starwars fan and right now i feel there is no "substance" in my beloved franchise and its got me down. Ive always loved the Mad Max movies though, i feel George Miller would be a excellent choice to write and direct a Starwars movie in the saga. Hes great at capturing gritty, dark and adventure feels (Mad Max 1&2), but also lighthearted, magical feels too especially with this third movie. And he can shoot action perfectly.
Unfortunately, with Mad Max Fury Road, George Miller seems to have gone the Star Wars no-substance route. Fury Road is a dazzling shiny penny with no meat to it, like the previous Mad Maxes had.
It's a staple in my life! I can only yell "'Membah" when remembering....nobody really remembers or gets it....the lack of respect for Captain Walker is atrocious....don't get me started with Captain Ron!!
I like how the writers envisioned how kids who never learned to talk right would talk. They sort of got their own language, and they're history like the old and pagan tribes of old before writing, is oral-based.
This is one one of my favorite parts of the movie. I'm almost moved to tears when they begin "the tell," by their sincerity and earnestness to keep the story pure and to not let time cause their history to fade away.
I dig how they mix up what they know and half remember to make a culture. The writers read up on anthropology for these scenes. It brings to mind "cargo cult" religions that started after WW2. See these Pacific Islanders got wrapped up in the war in the Pacific and didn't understand it. They just knew that they made a clear strip of land and magic birds from the sky would land and give them food and amazing things. For decades afterward they made air strips and airplanes made of wood and vines to call back the sky god's favor.
Some tribes even set fire to some huts when they saw a plane. The people in the plane landed & took mercy on them & gave them some new stuff, not knowing that they caused them to burn them. They rebuilt their huts and took the new tech & were happy. So the cycle continued. I don't have the book anymore so i can't tell you where that was exactly. But i recall reading about it.
If people think it's a plot hole that there are no adults, just imagine that Captain Walker took most of them along with them, but women stayed behind and might have died in childbirth, or other adults died young from the radiation of the poxyclipse. It's also possible that some of the teenagers are parents to a lot of the younger ones. One of the girls says that they're about to "pop any day now".
the main girls oldest son is the one that gets eaten by quick sand, the scene of her and him meeting is to show the divide of the oldest kids from the second generation and yes one girl is showing
This scene does a great job of encapsulating everything that's great about our species as a whole, whereas all of the Barter Town scenes show us at our worst.
if they could only realize that they are already at home... the thing is that they would have to go to what they think is their home to, from its perspective, realize that they were already in it... to realize the purity of the existence and life they had in such place they are not aware of how beautiful, true, real and clean their life is...
Cried hard at this scene. Absolute genius. The beauty of the world through a child's eyes, the love and bonds of tribe, a story of tragedy. So much character in the setting and dialogue itself. Every inch of this set and scene oozes with thought and care.
This scene could be silly if it was filmed by someone else but it manages to pull us into the absolute magic of it. I think the language used helps tremendously
Anybody else see the complete despair? When the kids are all lined up on the outside of the crashed jet, you almost don't know whether to laugh or cry.
Something I love about the Mad Max movies is the continuity of Max. There is a scene where you see a close up of his eyes and one of them has the pupil dilated/damaged. I read somewhere that this was from the Interceptor car wreck in Road Warrior. Not only that, you can still see the leg brace around his injured leg. So much thought went into these movies.
they actually consulted a doctor, so a lot of the injuries could be accurately portrayed, actually I think the director used to be a doctor, i may be wrong but yeah all injuries are very realistically portrayed. Unlike pretty much every action movie ever.
Bernard Johnson Also the close up of his eyes was probably also, Max on the verge of tears, seeing those pictures of Sydney, the 747 & the walkers-before the apocalypse.
I loved this scene where they thought Mad Max was the second coming of Captain Walker, even down to having him drawn in a crucified pose carrying the children upon himself. It would only be around 19 years later that Mel Gibson would tackle the real Messiah being put on a cross on film.
I love this movie. I love the blind faith they, as children have in "Captain Walker." Anyone who, as a child, had to make it on their own, will find this comforting. Mad Max, honestly, feels like the sort you know wouldn't let you down.
The adults were exposed to radiation longer then the children who were born probably years later. The parents lifespan would have been short. Judging by the age of the youngest children the last of the parents died out about 8-10 years earlier. Leaving only the children behind. The oldest children are about 17 which gives a ruff date on when the Walker plane evacuated whatever city they were in.
I always thought of the Mad Max timeline in relation to the children that are depicted in the films. For instance the first film, "Mad Max", shows Max Rockatansky's son as a toddler. The next film,"The Road Warrior", shows a feral boy that's about 10-12 years old. The final film,"Mad Max : Beyond Thunderdome", has Savannah Nix (star of this clip) as an adolescent that is now almost a fully grown adult.
Interesting theory. I'm being serious now, did you ever hear about Grease taking place in a dream or in heaven or a near death experience for Sandy and that she actually did die at the beginning as Danny was unable to save her from drowning. It totally fits, its awesome.
I love to watch this. It gives their interpretation of things they're heard and seen but don't quite understand. It was fun to figure out the things they were talking about.
The Oasis is home to not only the Waiting Ones but what looks like a habitat to a plethora of fur and meat bearing animals, look at the abundance of pelt and leather clothing along with the water skins and feathers, although we don’t actually see any we’re led to assume these kids have access to a lost bastion of animal life
This is a brilliant depiction of how religious things get started. It's pretty easy to deduce the, uh... reality, on which THE TELL is based. But there are alterations. They've fit the extra details into the overall narrative (to wit, MRS. WALKER!!). Just effin' brilliant.
This is how the story of the tribal children of the once Nation of Australia settled down at a fertile oasis: Before the World War lll Captain Walker took over 300 orphaned children in a commercial jet plane and flew into the skies to seek refuge. Suddenly turbulence happen and the its wings broke apart. The plane crashed on the fertile oasis. Some of the children survived others died. As Captain Walker and his children settled down. Walker went out the desert to find survivors. He promised to return so he could take them to paradise of refuge called tomorrow - morrow land. Where there is sonic and video technology galore.
Believe it or not, it did land successfully for me once. ONCE! I’d be thrilled if someone dropped it on me one of these years. They’d instantly have my complete admiration and respect. We’re hanging out with the wrong people.
HighlyDedicated Think its a plot hole. If there are no parents, and the tell is past on from generation to generation, who are the parents of the 5 year old if only Savanah and the other guy are the oldest.
Jonathan Cotton long story short canon wise mad max 1 takes place 15 years into the future mad max 2 takes place 5 years later mad max 3 takes place 15 years later so like mad max 1 is 2030 mad max 2 is 2035 mad max 3 is 2050 between now and mad max 1 a bunch of skirmishes happen between iran and saudi etc, oil gets shut off from the middle east, then there is a small nuke exchange in the middle east. Society starts breaking down. then mad max 1 then after mad max 1 and 2 massive wars are breaking out between nations, people are starting to run out of food, society is almost all but gone, very few nations exist at all. people are now starting to run for safe areas. Then mad max 2 Then mad between mad max 2 and 3 the last remaining nations launch a massive war on each other. they complete ending of the world. The parents of these kids get on a plane because they knew the war was coming. Apparently they were in the air when this nuclear war happens so they go down. They wander around and find an oasis. They have a bunch of kids and get really bored and wander out probably around 7 or eight years before mad max shows up. Basically their parents are dead. but anyways nuclear war happens, nuclear winter, gasoline is as rare as gold all society collapses water is scarce and there are about 10,000 people left in australia. everyone is basically dead.
The dialogue style is from a 1980 science fiction novel titled Riddley Walker. The whole book is written in that language. Actually you can see a lot of bits of this movie in that book.
i think that these kids have been living here for generations. that as soon as one reaches maturity they venture into the wasteland and never return. thats how come theres so many little ones.
Capt Walker. Capt of a plane, planes fly in the sky. When Capt Walker flies a plane he's up in the sky. Walker in the sky. Sky and Walker. A Skywalker. Skywalker.
It's all in the intro for the Road Warrior. A nuclear war DID happen, brought on by greed of oil, carried on after the war by roving gangs. Watch them all and see how the policeman Max survives it all.
And the inspiration of Sorrows from Honest Hearts (imagine if Mad Max was an old survivalist who helped out the children in secret), Boomer's mural (think lost children as gun totting and explosive chucking and tech savvy tribe), and the now-cancelled Van Buren's Vault 29.
I believe that the captain knew that the strike was coming and got all the people he could on the plane and get out of there seconds before they was in the air it happen the bomb hit and the wind and sand flying around the wind was so strong cause the plane to go down so I'm thinking that they left the city seconds before the end and the captain knew that it was coming

Honestly, this is some of the best writing of a post-apocalyptic society
I'm trying to tie up a logical chronology of all Mad Max movies.
Do you think it makes sense to assume that Beyond the Thunderdome takes place 13 years after the apocalypse?
And Fury Road 20 (Being Max 42 or 43 in that movie)?
TOTALLY !
But it's pretty much stolen from Russel Hoban's Riddley Walker.
"a gang called Turbulence" wow. This short speech is full of so much genius. Like others have said: lots of thought went into this movie.
This "tell", in my opinion, is one of the best and most memorable monologues and scenes in movie history. The language, the presentation, and the delivery by Helen Buday is so beautifully and skillfully executed, making it believable to the audience. Pretty damn incredible for a first movie role. It makes me wish for a Mad Max spin-off about "The Waiting Ones".
In undergrad for screenwriting course, I wrote a treatment for a Mad Max spinoff called "G. L. Walker" that covered the events described in the tell.
It’s brilliant! It’s so believable that language would become this, trying to grasp at ‘membered versions of past memories without books or computers.
Sorry, I just found it cringe. Thunderdome jumped the shark considering Mad Max 1 was basically modern times but in collapse. 20 years later they are talking like they've been tribal for 100 years.

I like how the writers envisioned how kids who never learned to talk right would talk. They sort of got their own language, and they're history like the old and pagan tribes of old before writing, is oral-based.
yeah, they managed to keep it together and not let their world degenerate into a Lord of the Flies scene
tomorrow "moron" land refers to the world we live these days right? LOL :(
I think the dialect is great too, but I don't think these kids "never learned to talk right." A people in isolation simply develop their own dialect.
you like how the writers used common sense?
@@huberhuaman It's tomorrow morrow land
This is one one of my favorite parts of the movie. I'm almost moved to tears when they begin "the tell," by their sincerity and earnestness to keep the story pure and to not let time cause their history to fade away.
Hey, at least they have a 16:9 widescreen HD stick to tell the tale. Other tribes probably still only have standard definition 4:3 sticks...

This scene is so beautiful and so disturbing. So sad.

christ it was banal the first time you posted it
This scene represents how we, as a species, survived the Ice Age.
TruthFoot Yes...”WE”. They are OUR ancestors. Or are you of Neanderthal descent?
*It is unpossible to make a movie this good anymore.*
_Evil can only copy, it cannot create._
if they could only realize that they are already at home...
the thing is that they would have to go to what they think is their home to, from its perspective, realize that they were already in it... to realize the purity of the existence and life they had in such place
they are not aware of how beautiful, true, real and clean their life is...
Cried hard at this scene. Absolute genius. The beauty of the world through a child's eyes, the love and bonds of tribe, a story of tragedy. So much character in the setting and dialogue itself. Every inch of this set and scene oozes with thought and care.
Hm. Did the kids paint the new mural of walker after finding max? Or before?
Brilliant.
0:31 "I'm lookin' behind us now, across the count of time and down the long haul into history back". In Devon, they just say "backalong".
I always wondered if it was "long haul" or "long hall"
In the spirit of Walker I thought "long haul" though "hall" has much to recommend it.
Sounds like "haul" to me the way she says the vowel.
This scene could be silly if it was filmed by someone else but it manages to pull us into the absolute magic of it. I think the language used helps tremendously
MISSUS WALKAH! I love watching the kids faces as they say this one ...
Anybody else see the complete despair? When the kids are all lined up on the outside of the crashed jet, you almost don't know whether to laugh or cry.
I was about 18 when I first saw this, and it broke my heart--

Why doesn't the history channel present their programs like this? That would be a lot more entertaining.
Most people are idiots, so it would be at their level.
At a conference, I once described the entire history of Linux using this broken Australian accent and cave drawing pictures.
Pointless, according to the History Channel everything was due to aliens…

The stuff with the Crack of the Earth people and Captain Walker is actually a tribute to Russell Hoban's sci fi masterpiece novel, Riddley Walker.
Amazing Novel.
I've been saying this for almost 40 years and nobody got it!
This scene was heavily inspired by the 1980 post-apocalyptic novel, Riddley Walker. It's even written in the same sort of devolved English.
shit, we're getting closer and closer to tomorrow-morrow land..
This ain't one bodies story, it's the story of us all.
I love to watch this. It gives their interpretation of things they're heard and seen but don't quite understand. It was fun to figure out the things they were talking about.
Great Scene!! Fantastic dialog!! Love the way they speak!!
This movie holds a special place in my heart and this scene is absolutely magical.

Mrs Walker never fails to crack me up

this is one of the best scenes in this film , gives you more back story to the Mad Max world.
This scene has been stuck in my head since I was a kid
history becomes legend, legend becomes myth
and even myth is long forgotten when the age that gave it birth comes again.
Really captured what history class will look like in 2021
Even the script was lyrical and of course Tina Turner was fantastic!!
It's Pox-Eclipse
If you're referring to Max saying "pockeclipse," I think that was a nice touch that he didn't say the word right after hearing it only once.

long story short canon wise
mad max 1 takes place 15 years into the future
mad max 2 takes place 5 years later
mad max 3 takes place 15 years later
so like
mad max 1 is 2030
mad max 2 is 2035
mad max 3 is 2050
between now and mad max 1 a bunch of skirmishes happen between iran and saudi etc, oil gets shut off from the middle east, then there is a small nuke exchange in the middle east. Society starts breaking down.
then mad max 1
then after mad max 1 and 2 massive wars are breaking out between nations, people are starting to run out of food, society is almost all but gone, very few nations exist at all. people are now starting to run for safe areas.
Then mad max 2
Then mad between mad max 2 and 3 the last remaining nations launch a massive war on each other. they complete ending of the world. The parents of these kids get on a plane because they knew the war was coming. Apparently they were in the air when this nuclear war happens so they go down. They wander around and find an oasis. They have a bunch of kids and get really bored and wander out probably around 7 or eight years before mad max shows up. Basically their parents are dead.
but anyways nuclear war happens, nuclear winter, gasoline is as rare as gold all society collapses water is scarce and there are about 10,000 people left in australia. everyone is basically dead.
Missus Walker! My fave scene.
The origin of the southpark member berry joke.
I love the song in the background. Wish it were isolated.

So this is where the member berries originated.
Nathan Forester I don't get it. I haven't watched South Park since October. Can you explain?
The recent season of South Park had a superfruit known as 'member berries' that made people nostalgic and messed with their minds.
Nathan Forester I know that but what does that have to do with this movie?
Well in the movie they say 'member' instead of remember. So that's where they got their name from.
It's all in the intro for the Road Warrior. A nuclear war DID happen, brought on by greed of oil, carried on after the war by roving gangs. Watch them all and see how the policeman Max survives it all.
2:45 -- „Remember this?“-- „Captain Bolsonaro!“ „Remember this?“-- „MISSUS BOLSONARO!“
As a kid, I thought this was normal australian behavior.

Every single culture has a flood story after the ice age and this scene sums it up for me
Any time anybody ever says "remember this" I remember this, what when Savanah had Her Time with the Tell.
And the inspiration of Sorrows from Honest Hearts (imagine if Mad Max was an old survivalist who helped out the children in secret), Boomer's mural (think lost children as gun totting and explosive chucking and tech savvy tribe), and the now-cancelled Van Buren's Vault 29.
I think Randall Dean Clarke is inspired partly by Mad Max but being a military man instead of a former cop
how POWERFUL!---(the danglings trinkets representing tv nobs)

"Remember this?"

I believe that the captain knew that the strike was coming and got all the people he could on the plane and get out of there seconds before they was in the air it happen the bomb hit and the wind and sand flying around the wind was so strong cause the plane to go down so I'm thinking that they left the city seconds before the end and the captain knew that it was coming
