DP/30: Mad Max: Fury Road, George MIller
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 тра 2015
- George Miller has directed just 10 films in 36 years. Four are about Max Rockatansky. (Also, two Happy Feet, Twilight Zone, Lorenzo's Oil, Witches of Eastwick, Babe: Pig In The City) This time, 30 years since the last Max film, there is a new Max, a new kind of villain, and Max's first sidekick who (at least) is his equal. George discusses the new film, the new technology, the evolution of the choices of films he has made over these decades, and the low point of his Hollywood experience.
Shot in Los Angeles, May 2015

George Miller took cinema to another level with Fury Road.
A heavy metal guitar with flames on a desert truck with drummers on a tower: this guy imagined that. Awesome.
He's fantastic.
What a clearly kind, lovely man.
Not to mention visionary
This man deserves his own monument. Thank you for making Fury Road! It was fantastic, 10/10.
Those "yeah, yeah" 's he does at the end are so brilliantly Australian.
I really like George
Nathan Pickering One of my favorite people, filmmaker or otherwise.
Nathan Pickering We Aussies are all like that except George Miller is a very gifted and talented writer and director. I guess it's the laid back easy going lifestyle we have as typical Australians.

+FortOmnicron54 The typical American has a lot to learn from the typical Aussie ;)
Badass grandpa, is like he came out of retirement to teach new filmmakers how to make a proper action film perfect in every sense.
+naxonesbet Great comment
Too bad that almost a whole damned duo of back to back generations of idelogically hubristic, new filmmakers took absolutely no notes from George's ferocious brilliance. Probably because he is considered by the "useful" DEI idiots to be an "old, straight, white, male colonizer. However, a great master is an undeniable master. Bow down & give due homage.
The best movie I've seen in 10 years thank you for bringing the old school movies back I'm sick of CGI s*** like the Avengers and other stupid movies like that and making Mad Max rated R you are the s*** and one of the best directors in Hollywood right now please make more movies like this we are sick of seeing CGI BullShit movies !!!!!!!
This man must be an absolutely pleasure to work with judging by his demeanor during his interviews and his positive attitude apparent in Mad Max behind the scene footage. May he outlive us all.
Is it the best film ever directed? No. But damn, do I want George Miller to get some academy award nominations for it. It really comes across like a labour of love and I spent the 2 hours just in awe scene after scene.
Truly a mastermind as the poster suggests! A really humble and interesting guy, and I was pleasantly surprised when I found out he was 70! Great interview, guys! Keep it up
most fun movie i've seen in years. what an insane ride.
I wasn't going to see the film but after seeing George and how awesome he is i have to! Seems to be a really nice guy.. Nice interview 👌
What an amazing action movie. I had to hold in my piss for the last 40 minutes my god there is no scene to catch your breath. Deserves at least one oscar forsure.
High Five WHOA. u hold ya piss for 40 MINS ! Should be given a Guinness World Records !
peekaboo peekaboo you are a sad person. And I was by no means trying to brag haha what the hell.
High Five a happy person I Am :) jk Did ya think of relieving inside a bottle, a cup or an empty popcorn bucket ?
High Five my bad if u took it as an insult. I know how it feels to hold it for a long time - ruins enjoyment .
peekaboo peekaboo my bad i thought you were being really sarcastic haha.
For 70 he doesn't look or act like it, there's clearly a lot of life and imagination left in him. Good on im for following through with the film looks like its gonna be great.
I didn't recognize George Miller among the greatest directors and most creative minds in cinema but when I saw Fury Road I knew the man had to be a brilliant visionary. What a ripper George, Congratulations! Can't wait for Mad Max: The Wasteland.
Haven't been this excited about a movie in a while
It's great to see George Miller back in full force. "The Road Warrior" has aged very well. It is classic. I loved "Lorenzo's Oil" & his Twilight Zone segment. I can't wait to catch this new Mad Max. Poland does the best interviews bar none.
One of the best movies I’ve ever seen. I took an employee- who’d never seen a single Mad Max film- on opening day (we played a bit of hooky on a Friday). We both were in heaven. Such a great film.
Great Interview, George seems like such a great guy, not pretentious at all.
You've been totally killing it lately with Dolph yesterday and now George Miller today. Keep up the great work.
What?
Thank you, thank you, thank you Mr. Miller ... for this great movie !!! ... The movie was super ... I saw it yesterday and I`m still in this Mad Max world : )) ... The actors were great ... especially Charlize Theron as Furiosa ... The academy should give her an oscar !!! ... I`m so glad that you, the original director made the movie ... You, and only you were the right man to make it ... So, thank you again and many greetings from europe
+Sonne Mond She wasn't even nominated :S
I just clicked on the video just to write that this guy is fucking amazing. He makes the best films in a genre, waits for 30 years for everybody else give it a shot, then makes a film that's still better than everything else that preceeded it, what an absolute boss.
That was one of the best interviews I've ever seen. On any subject. Smart and charming and informative. Miller is such a groovy guy.
He's just a pleasure to spend time with, isn't he? Highly intelligent yet crystal clear in everything he says, good-natured, polite... and he just showed the younger generation how to make an action classic again. Nice interview. I like the way you let him talk because a sound byte really doesn't do him justice.
I love that George Miller mentioned one of my all-time film heroes, Sam Peckinpah. :)
Who thinks Academy was unkind to film?It deserved best picture
Fascinating fellow. Great interview. I'm really looking forward to Fury Road.
When he says films have changed since the last Mad Max movie my first thought was 'Yup, and now you've changed it again'.
This film is an amazing achievement.
Finally an action movie not shot wholly on green screen.
It was like a breath of fresh air.
I could listen to this man talk forever
I love how he wears this awesome jacket all the time XD
Australia's James Cameron.. doesn't make many movies, but when he does, it's usually fucking awesome.
A superstar director whose fallback day job was emergency room doctor in case this whole film business didn't take off...Seriously, Dr George Miller is the coolest cat around. Amazing. Great interview.
That was a real joy to watch. Really. Thanks.
I was !4 when I watched MAD MAX in a theatre.How can I forget George Miller.He is a fabulous story teller.He keeps it simple and engaged till the end
Oh boy, what a great interview, thanks so much! I definitely want to see this movie.
Another dynamite interview from one of the best. Well done, sir. I can only hope that my hair looks that magnificent at 70 :-]
As usual the BEST interviews on the net - and by god FURY ROAD blew my mind today - going to see it again on Monday. Thank YOU George Miller - masterpiece, immediate cult masterpiece. My faith in cinema has never really diminished, but my faith with action movies at the cinema had. Probably the last action movie I truly enjoyed was THE RAID 2 - anyway ------ George has raised the game. Can anything this year, or this decade from Hollywood come close to touching the magnificence of FURY ROAD??
Best action film i have seen in long time. Well done George. Loved it
I always said that some of these old timers are still better if not superior directors. I got to see Furious 7 and hated it. Fury Road had John Seale coming out of retirement to be DP for this movie. He's 72. George Miller is 70. Guy Norris, the stunt coordinator from the first mad max movies came back to do stunt coordination and second unit direction. All of them geezers, man. Lol. Awsome.
I think Quinton Tarantino said that directors get worse with age. That might be true about him, but not Miller or guys like Scorsese
Definitely true! But for every great old director, you have those that "get worse with age" George Lucas is probably the most famous case, and some even argue that Spielberg's newest films were subpar (and I'd have to agree). But I guess it just goes to show you, no rule is absolute.
John Noble No joke, Scorsese's movies have just been getting better and better in the last 10 years.
John Noble
To the contrary, however, Ridley Scott's last 4 movies have been trash (besides the Counsellor in my opinion but I know I'm alone in the sentiment)
John Noble George Lucas is not bad. He was never bad. The Star Wars films that he created were great. Why do you think Star Wars is one of the best movies of all time right now? It's because of George Lucas
Soul King Look at the prequels. They were absolutely terrible and written and directed by George Lucas. He only directed Star Wars Episode IV, where he got a lot of helf
George Miller thank you for mad max.
This epic operatic Hot-Rod Apocalypse is a complete awesome MASTERPIECE! Very glad George Miller got to make this great mythological fantasy film, it's a work of ART.
Can't believe such an earnest and lovable guy could make something so beautifully grotesque and blisteringly insane. Fury Road is a "pantheon" film, up there with the action classics of old and the great works of gonzo filmmaking. Bravo George!
And wonderful interview!
Amazing interview as always, man!
If you happen to interview Charlize Theron in Cannes about Fury Road, please ask her also about Dark Places (and why it took so long to release it) and future projects like Sympathy for Lady Vengeance, Marie Colvin's Private War or Murder Mistery just to know if she is still attached and producing those movies.
Mad Max Fury Road and George Miller made me proud to be Australian! Can't believe he came up with this action masterpiece after (good) films about talking pigs and dancing penguins! He hasn't slowed down a bit, and is a breath of fresh air after the CGI/Greenscreen saturated imagery of todays films. At 70 years of age Miller still knows how to kick ass! Brilliant!
John West And you should be, this guy literally restored my faith in movies and especially action ones... I gave up a long time ago on Hollywood and this bullshit CGi crap and then this guy came and blew me away. What a brilliant man and a truly great director, well my dear Aussie thank you for this great man and a gift for all of us who appreciate great movies...
And by the way, this is so much more then just a great action movie, it is a brilliant piece of art...
steve mcquen Haha, he's a legend over here! Happy to share the madness with you all!
John West Definitley fan of Australians...
I love this guy. I love these people who know everything about movies and have all the reps
mad genius this guy
What a cracking bloke not been this excited for a blockbuster in a while love the fact he is bringing it old school with the practical effects George miller is a joy to listen too and a wonderfully gifted director nice interview too (I feel a mad max marathon on the horizon)
10:22 ...as long as you don't become a slave to water George!
max silbert Well played! & the fact that your youtube name is 'Max" is icing on the cake!
What a fascinating interview
8:23 - I believe he's referring to *The Parade's Gone By* by *Kevin Brownlow*
Great job with the Mad Max saga. Just brilliant. A first movie who was supposed to be a low cost movie just for the Australian audience turned into a worldwide classic.
Champion person. Model human being.
It was worth the Bongo van George!
These days people throw out the term Mastermind to filmmakers so effortlessly but George Miller truly IS a Mastermind
Way to go, Miller! Fury Road was such an achievement.
This is an amazing visual movie if you have not seen it you must go before its out of theaters because this movie was made to be watched on the biggest screen in the loudest theater you can find
great interview, George Miller is very interesting to listen to and seemed very relaxed and open in this, And he is 70? well damn, the dude shines with enthusiasm ,he looks great.
Absolute brilliance shining at huge magnitude! The Road Warrior was awesome! This guy knows how to make a throat grabbing action movie!
Awesome !!!!!
You are the man ! Mr Miller 10 Points !!!!!
He really reminds me of Martin Scorsese. A humble, informative man who loves what he does and does it better then most. Scorsese obviously has more acclaim because he has been around longer and has made over 20 films and George Miller has made 9. But what an impressive 9 films! Road Warrior and Fury Road are considered some of the best action films of all time and it is truly earned. I truly hope we see Mad Max: The Wasteland, soon.
George Miller seems very down to earth, and I'm so happy to be hearing such great things from this movie. Looks like he has hit one out of the park again....and that gives me hope for a few other directors that have been on a lukewarm/cold streak to have at least one more stunner come out. I'm more stoked to see this than the avengers sequel....but I'll probably go to see that too. ;)
I just saw this movie. I really enjoyed it and hope there is a sequel.
He's confirmed another called "Mad Max: The Wasteland"
he seems to be a jolly fella :) very nice, humble, etc.!!!
He's seventy!? Wow man :D
Great movie, great director!
This movie as amazing !!!
This years best action movie! maybe for years to come! i loved it can you tell?! George is a great man!
10:24 Bit of a missed opportunity to scream "Do not get addicted to water!" :D
(It will take hold of you, and you will recent its absence)
I'm really picky about the writing in post-apoc but I might go see this one for the visuals... thanks!
Great as always.
Guess he really, really didn't enjoy Witches of Eastwick
George Miller you are Legend
This man has quiet an imagination. And it's amazing how he can make great family movies and great violent action movies.
Fury Road is the movie of the year. Every year.
George Miller is a living legend man!
Mr Poland, do you have a podcast page where we can download your interviews and play them on iPods?
richfictionfighter Working on it.
DP/30: The Oral History Of Hollywood That would be great.
what does "Speed read movies" mean? he says that at 3:28
11:04 i wanna see that version.
He does anybody know if the screen play is for sale?
Vinnie J sorry I meant the storyboard
amazing movie, amazing man! gotta love Aussies
Don't like the extra cuts like he said cinema has changed but other than that perfection :)
❤
I thought this was a joji Miller/ George miller/ filthy frank interview
FUCKIN BRUTAL MOVIE !! THUMBS FUCKIN UP !!
Who are these people that count the number of shots in movies?
Producers. Sometimes you can determine a cost by counting your shots and also making the list for what will go into that shot. I'm sure someone makes a list with a bill stapled to it. And from there the director and his film crew figure out what they can do without. The matrix script had a car chase sequence. Too expensive. So the chase was shot on foot. And they made a list. "Neo runs down sidewalk. Block a sidewalk with extras. Neo snatches a cell phone off yuppie. Hire extra. Get prop department to provide cell phone."
John Noble I meant about the # of shots in the final edited film, I assumed that's what Miller was talking about.
But yeah I forgot about shot lists & such
Nice fucking guy. Talented fucking guy.
Point Is war for water
7:53
This guy is like the Aussie version of Steven Spielburg
Any spoilers in this?
Stephen Danay Not really. We discuss the timeline from the other movies and the idea of this film, but almost no detail about story.
DP/30: The Oral History Of Hollywood Thanks man! Keep up the good work!
There are only 2 big spoilers.
DP/30: The Oral History Of Hollywood How do you get access to all these stars?
Slides2006 he works, and works, and works, and works, and works, and has been doing this for like 30 years. His name is David Poland
7000 days = 19.1653649 years
love fury road it set the bar high for film. PS: george miller looks a lot like immortan joe
I could literally listen to this guy read a fucking manual.
Furiosa is interesting because really she should have been a wife. Could it be that Immortan Joe didn't want her for a wife because of her missing hand? And then she survived by becoming a warrior, and then she was the only warrior who understood the wives and wanted to free them. Her handicap made her uniquely positioned to do something great. That'd be a marvelous message, wouldn't it?
thescowlingschnauzer the brilliant thing is that the movie doesn't answer these questions. it just shows her as the Imperator serving the Immortan and that she has a missing arm.
snillocgrom I don't think it's brilliant that the movie doesn't answer those questions. I do think it's brilliant that the movie is evocative enough that I don't mind that it doesn't answer to those questions.
thescowlingschnauzer same difference.
+thescowlingschnauzer Theron said that her theory was that her mother cut off her arm so that she wouldn't be taken in as breeding stock.
Do another one..you simply must!and this time..Furiosa..just sayin
Morgan Freeman finally has some competition for the title of President GOD.
Michael Bay take notes!
Seriously Mad Max should had been renamed Mad Charlize Theron! It was 99% Theron and 1% Max.
Daniel Maximoff I'm sick of seeing that fucking comment, there is literally two scenes in the entire movie that he is not in
roloug95 Same to you, please re-watch the movie, or analyze it correctly before commenting bullshit.
Daniel Maximoff I've seen it five times and you don't need at analyze it to conclude that your statement is utter bullshit
roloug95 Sounds like you haven't seen it at all, so why don't you go and learn how to watch a movie instead of coming back with nothing to say.
Daniel Maximoff
hahaha how do you learn to watch a movie? You seem to be the one with nothing to say since you havent even addressed your original comment and how stupid it was
now i know why he keeps ending his sentences abruptly
hes 70
He's out of focus.
