@@TBRSchmitt Is Doof slanguage for something? It's a damn weird name for something so cool, when I first saw this movie, I called that vehicle the Warscreamer.
@@Nickel_The_Wise From Wikipedia: A doof or bush doof is a type of outdoor dance party generally held in a remote country area, or outside a large city in surrounding bush or rainforest. Originating in the post-punk electronic music scene of Melbourne, Australia in the early 1990s, events referred to as doofs are now held worldwide and have built from a small set of social groups to a subculture with millions of active members worldwide, considered by some as a full blown culture similar to raves or teknivals. Doofs generally have healing workshops, speakers, art, live artists and DJs playing a range of electronic music, commonly goa, house, dub techno, Techno, acid heavy sounds and psychedelic trance. I didn't know that doof was from Australia. Now it makes more sense to call that absolute beast of a vehicle "Doof Wagon" cause Mad Max is Australian too.
Yeah, I love that they showed George Miller the huge truck with all of the amps and speakers on it and he asked to see it blast some sound... they then explained to him that the speakers are all props and he made them go back and make everything functional. I love that even the flamethrower guitar is completely real and really plays and spits fire.
Well.. maybe not The Peacemaker (The Bullet Farmer vehicle). I heard that was a bitch to built, and it kept breaking down. It probably is very *non*-functional by now
@@Duca50 The original location they were going to use was Broken Hill but the weather had unpredictable consequences and forced them to reconsider/relocate, not because of the way Namibia looks or anything it was pure coincidence they ended up shooting there.
I love the message of this film. There is no Green Place. You're better off struggling and fighting to make the world you live in better, than searching for some mythical paradise you might reach somewhere over the horizon.
I like that the characters have all a purpose (some just are ther for thee sake of body count) but even the wives that have less character all of them are not just there. The wives put themselves in danger, they help and they are actually a part of the movie. Easily they could put them just a damzel in distress but they do belong in the movie. The same goes for certain characters. My favorite part is when all of them are helping each other, furiosa and Max just shooting and wives reloading the weapons.
There was a comic based off that War Boy his story, and the parents who truly loved him. They did everything to make sure he had a good life, no matter what. Because of that he never knew fear or sorrow even when they died. Because of that he was noticed as he climbed the platform that used to lower and raise items and people to the fortress and when the guard found him and lifted him up to toss over the side. He laughed, his fearlessness stunned the guard and won him a place as a war boy.
25:44 it does work like that in real life, the air intake mixes air and fuel before it combusts in the engine block. By spitting fuel into the intake the mixture is richer causing more combustion in the engine. Nitros oxide or No2 is a similar concept but in-sted of using more fuel it makes the air in the mixture more explosive.
What are oscars to you? Because it IS a small selected group of celebrities who has opinions. But if you want to listen to them kissing ass and giving statues, go ahead. My definition of a good movie is my own opinion. Baaah
It's one of the best unexplained movies ever. Action speaks louder than words. And a nod of thanks is all that's needed, or warranted. Honor, virtue, and bravery. No need to say anymore. I'm so glad to have gone on this adventure with you, Tim. Awesome.
Hugh Keays-Byrne who played Immortan Joe. Also played Toecutter in the original Mad Max. Like they said in the trailer for this movie. 2015 belongs to the mad. "What a day, what a lovely day!!!"
Yes, it does increase the explosiveness of the fuel in engine cylinder because there is more fuel mixed with air but the concentration is important, can't have too much or it overheats/explodes and ruins the engine.
No. A properly tuned engine will be supplied the correct amount of fuel to match the available oxygen. If a random spray of fuel increases power, the engine is in a bad state of tune. That additional fuel should be supplied by the system so it is available with a push of the throttle, not by someone clinging to the hood.
George Miller had a great explanation for the continuity differences in his Mad Max films. He said that Mad Max is a mythological hero that people in the Wasteland tell stories of, a man who appears out of nowhere to help, and then disappears back into nowhere. Thus, the stories of him don't follow any continuity or "match up" in any way. In one story he had a wife and infant son, in another story he had a wife and young daughter. His interceptor gets destroyed over and over, etc.
The stories are connected and Max never had a daughter the girl in the flash backs are from a comic book prequel, also The comic and the video game show Max rebuilding his interceptor.

@@Bawookles If you watch a lot of the interviews that George had done before and after the release of Fury Road, you'll see that he said a lot of contradictory things trying to explain the film also George was one of the writers of the comics as well as a consultant on the video game.

I had seen this film in the theaters with a friend of mine and I was blown away from the opening scene. Just a pure adrenaline rush of a movie and a step up from the original films. Tom Hardy is excellent as "Max", and Charlize Theron is equally awesome in her role.
ive heard that george miller says to treat every mad max movie after the first one as just stories told around the wasteland and could take place in any order.
Yup. Everyone thinks Max in Fury Road is the wildling grown up pretending to be Max because we know this happened after Road Warrior and he has the interceptor and the music box but Miller said this is false each movie is just a wasteland tall tale about a road warrior.
i anticipated this film more than any other that has come out in my lifetime, and was not disappointed in the slightest... but, i will maintain that the road warrior is my favorite film of all time. having seen it countless times, it was the reason i was so excited for fury road.
"This movie is so well shot... you can actually take a picture/screenshot of any scene and it would make a beautiful poster anyways ." -from another youtube account that I can not remember the name
They actually did a comic book which tied the continuity of all the movies together, so Fury Road is actually in the same continuity as the earlier films. The child he has visions of is actually his adopted daughter, who appears in the comics (his son from the first movie, being only an infant when he died). They also explain how he has a new Interceptor. It's a cool read.
My buddy left this movie with his fiancé, and he asked her what she thought. She said, "I don't know, It was like a two hour car chase.' "I know! Wasn't it great!?"
I grew up on Mel Gibson as this character, and wasn't sure I could handle Hardy in the role, but there is so much jaw-dropping, vehicular mayhem, and Max is so primal in nature, transforming from animal to man, that you barely care. Surprisingly, George Miller followed up these films with Lorenzo's Oil, The Witches of Eastwick, Happy Feet, and Babe, but when he puts the pedal to the metal, he is an action GOD. Too bad WB gave him so many legal nightmares that he isn't likely going back to this character, but I can't wait for the prequel film FURIOSA in June 2023 (he'll be 78 when that comes out, but there IS a script for another Max film called Mad Max: The Wasteland, which, along with Furiosa, was written at the same time as Fury Road). Ana Taylor-Joy was GREAT in The Witch, and I'm thinking she'll be sensational as a young Furiosa. Makes me wonder if Immortan Joe will be coming back as well? Either way, its sure to be spectacular. Awesome reaction/ review - thanks!
Sometimes the Oscars get it right! Gave Six to this one! ! If it wasn’t for The Revenant, it would have won Best Picture. Sick effects, sick acting, sick Tom Hardy! 😍
One of my favorite movie theater moments in my life was during this. When Nux screwed up and Immortan Joe goes Augh MEDIOCRE I lost my shit and about died laughing
I recommend Reading the Mad Max comic which shows Immortan Joe and Furiosa and Nux and Max backstory( it shows what happened to him after his third movie)
I've always said - this is the best action movie where the general plot is basically driving from point A to point B...and then driving back to point A again. XD
So the ghost girl that Max keeps seeing throughout the movie isn't actually his daughter, but a character named Glory the Child that he saved from a Buzzard camp in a "prequel" comic. I use the word prequel very lightly since no one story is as canonical than any other, they're more like legends told by wastelanders. But like Max's wife and child, Glory and her mother were killed by Immortan Joe's people and Max is haunted by their deaths.
Fun Fact: Hugh Keays-Byrne, who plays the baddie (Immortan Joe) in this movie was the main baddie in the original Mad Max. I haven't heard or seen anyone mention that, which is odd. Kind of an interesting twist to this movie series.
Reason #1,658,678 why I ❤ this movie: Everyone does a number of their own stunts, including The Many Mothers, putting the actresses in the Guinness Book of World Records for being the oldest women to perform their own stunts 🔥
I remember being so scared this movie was going to be a disappointment. I looked at all the leaked shots I could find before it came out but I still had a feeling it was going to let me down. I’m so glad it turned out the way it did. Amazing movie!
Same here. I've waited 30 long years to see it. I was very skeptical before it's release and even in the 'No Mel No Max' camp. But it surpassed my wildest dreams as a Mad Max fan on every possible level.
My 5th favourite film (Inception, The Social Network, The Grave of the Fireflies, The Dark knight and then Fury Road) of all time even though I prefer drama over action. Just imagine trimming down 580 hours of footage to 120minutes to sheer perfection by George Miller's wife Margaret Sixel. I would die to watch this film in a big screen.
This movie is one of the best action movies of the last few years. From the cinematography, the design of the cars, the characters, the plot, little fat and lots of well made action. They should make a sequel, it's screaming for one. Again if George Miller is the one calling the shots, of course. The guy knows his stuff when it comes to action. If you didn't watch the documentaries about the movie (you can find them in UA-cam) you should, they explain a lot about it, the VFX shots, what was practical, what was CGI. The episode about the cars blew my mind, they are all real working cars. It's very impressive.
Seeing it on the big screen was such an amazing and colourful experience. I know George Miller prefers the 'shiny and chrome' version (black and white) and has said it could even be a silent film
This film was directed by the same guy as Babe and Happy Feet. Yes, the movies of those names that you're thinking of. And those were AFTER he'd also done the first three Mad Max films.
Just began watching! Curious if either of you are going to recognize that Immortan Joe is played by the same actor who was the Toecutter in the first Mad Max film. The actor Hugh Keays-Byrne just passed away on Dec. 1st, 2020 RIP!
@@TBRSchmitt Awesome! Yeah he was such a big personality in the first movie it was so good to see him back again. Look forward to more excellent reactions from both your channels! The fact that you both also interact with all of us in the comment section is seriously cool too!
I remember when this came out, many people were theorizing that this Max is in fact the kid he saved in Road Worrior. That's why he isn't speaking much. He just took up the mantle of the man who saved him.
I liked that with this movie they treated Max as a legend that has many different stories attached to it. It doesn't have to be one movie following up on the previous movie. It could be Max Fury Road this time, Max doing something entirely different next time.
Just a little correction, this movie was shot in 2010. They could for the longest time not find a distributor, and the post-production took ages, that's why it only came out in 2015.
This is not a reboot, it is a sequel to Thunderdome. There is a series of comic books and a video game that take place shortly before this movie and it fills in some gaps between Thunderdome and this movie. Because Tom Hardy is younger than Mel Gibson most people get confused about the time line but this is basically the same story as when Mel was connected to the film. This is the same Max Rockatansky we've been following all along.
Yeah, some people referred to it as a reboot but it is simply a direct sequel to Thunderdome. Some guy on UA-cam did an excellent video about the timeline. You can do the math and see that the tattoo on Max’s back doesn’t work for someone as young as Hardy. It was supposed to be Mel at the age he was when this was originally supposed to get made. Searching for Mad Max timeline should get you to that video (or two? I forget.) pretty easily.
That was the plan originally. After a very interesting period directing stuff that was worlds away from the "Mad Max" series George Miller lost years not making his "Justice League" movie, then he and Mel were going to do a version of this in Namibia but 9/11 happened and there were security concerns so it was delayed. Then after waiting years for the stars to align and for Miller to take a break from "Happy Feet" movies, Mel got on with his own shit and became less interested in being in another "Mad Max" movie, which I totally get. He's no spring chicken, ya know.
It's not a reboot. George Miller wanted Max to be like a legend that everyone has their own version of a story where he came and ended up doing good and then going off to do another thing. Almost like after the first film, none of them are really in any particular order.
Hugh Keys Berne who played Toecutter in the first one plays Immortan Joe here. Acrually.. I seem to recall you guys reacted to the "American english dub", not the Auzzie original. If so I highly reccomend rewatching it in its "original language"
You both mentioned Max not saying much and when he does, it is rough. If you take a look at the Mad Max fan lore pages, you will learn that since the apocalypse when Max went off on his own, he spent many years alone not needing to talk. This may result in the diminishing ability to speak. Of course this is speculation from the lore pages.
Yes, it is indeed! "The Cars That Ate Paris" is nothing like a "Mad Max" movie though so if you look for it expecting that you will be disappointed. It's worth a look, but Peter Weir is a different animal to George Miller.
I remember going to the cinema to see this, i'd seen a few bits of the old mad maxes on TV at times and thought it'd just be a cynical reboot. I remember me and my buddy turning to one-another as the title slammed into place with our mouths open in excited shock: this was something exceptional.
Are hand-made cars, made from several part and pieces from other ruined machines. Not a series car with programmed deformation, solid chasis or continuous parts. In hand-made car (and in fully customs car like this), the destruction is more chaotic than a modern series car, made to absorb and disipate the energy of an impact.
you should watch it in the directors original black&chrome version. it is done so the black is pure black and the white has a shiny chrome like look to it.
You should watch all dogs go to heaven (1989) Charlie cheats death by stealing a gold pocket watch representing his life and winding it back. As Charlie descends back to Earth, the whippet angel tells him that he can never return to Heaven; when the watch stops again, he will be sent to Hell instead. However, as long as the watch continues to run, Charlie will be immortal.
Just think, if not for a writers strike and the Australian film board cancelling some of the funding, George Miller would have filmed 'Justice League Mortal' instead of Mad Max. Instead he went ahead and finished the Mad Max script and shot that instead. Hugh Keays Byrne was cast as Martian Manhunter and the other female warrior biker was Wonder Woman. George Miller gave them parts in Fury Road as consolation.
My one issue with this film is the vehicles in The Road Warrior were believable. They are what people could build and salvage after an apocalypse. The vehicles in this are ridiculously over the top and it hurt my suspension of disbelief a bit.
It's be kinda a funny if Angharad actually made it to the Many Mother's clan, only to find out that her child is a boy and she has to get rid of him, because it's a women only clan.

Reason #1,658,678 why I ❤ this movie:
Everyone does a number of their own stunts, including The Many Mothers, putting the actresses in the Guinness Book of World Records for being the oldest women to perform their own stunts 🔥
I remember being so scared this movie was going to be a disappointment. I looked at all the leaked shots I could find before it came out but I still had a feeling it was going to let me down. I’m so glad it turned out the way it did. Amazing movie!
The Adventure of Sharkboy and Lavagirl 2005- Full Movie HD what movie name anyone
Same here. I've waited 30 long years to see it. I was very skeptical before it's release and even in the 'No Mel No Max' camp. But it surpassed my wildest dreams as a Mad Max fan on every possible level.
Thank God George Miller didn't sell the franchise to Disney .
My 5th favourite film (Inception, The Social Network, The Grave of the Fireflies, The Dark knight and then Fury Road) of all time even though I prefer drama over action. Just imagine trimming down 580 hours of footage to 120minutes to sheer perfection by George Miller's wife Margaret Sixel. I would die to watch this film in a big screen.
Fun fact, the same actor Hugh Keyes-Burne who played Toe Cutter in the 1979 Mad Max is the same actor who plays Importen Joe in Fury Road.
This movie is one of the best action movies of the last few years. From the cinematography, the design of the cars, the characters, the plot, little fat and lots of well made action.
They should make a sequel, it's screaming for one. Again if George Miller is the one calling the shots, of course. The guy knows his stuff when it comes to action.
If you didn't watch the documentaries about the movie (you can find them in UA-cam) you should, they explain a lot about it, the VFX shots, what was practical, what was CGI. The episode about the cars blew my mind, they are all real working cars. It's very impressive.
The world is a better place with your smile in it. I love your reactions!
This movie is completely ridiculous. I love it.
It really is beautiful chaos!
Seeing it on the big screen was such an amazing and colourful experience. I know George Miller prefers the 'shiny and chrome' version (black and white) and has said it could even be a silent film
Thanks, Timothee! Thanks, TBR! 🔥 I got to see this one in the cinema. 👀
Same! So glad I did
Great Duel set-up with Double the Reaction AND double the fun while seeing a Rad movie like MAD MAX FURY ROAD :) Lots O fun!!!
Hello Tim and TBR! I love you guys
Thanks!
This film was directed by the same guy as Babe and Happy Feet. Yes, the movies of those names that you're thinking of. And those were AFTER he'd also done the first three Mad Max films.
Just began watching! Curious if either of you are going to recognize that Immortan Joe is played by the same actor who was the Toecutter in the first Mad Max film. The actor Hugh Keays-Byrne just passed away on Dec. 1st, 2020 RIP!
Yeah I was aware! So cool that he was included as such an awesome character. RIP!
@@TBRSchmitt Awesome! Yeah he was such a big personality in the first movie it was so good to see him back again. Look forward to more excellent reactions from both your channels! The fact that you both also interact with all of us in the comment section is seriously cool too!
I remember when this came out, many people were theorizing that this Max is in fact the kid he saved in Road Worrior. That's why he isn't speaking much. He just took up the mantle of the man who saved him.
I liked that with this movie they treated Max as a legend that has many different stories attached to it. It doesn't have to be one movie following up on the previous movie. It could be Max Fury Road this time, Max doing something entirely different next time.
Just a little correction, this movie was shot in 2010. They could for the longest time not find a distributor, and the post-production took ages, that's why it only came out in 2015.
Correction: the movie was shot in Namibia in 2012. Do your homework!
That movie was shot in the Namib Desert. The sand storms are really huge. How do I Know? I was born in a city built in that desert.
Fun fact: ToeCutter from the first Mad Max and Immorten Joe are played by the same person..
Hugh Keays-Byrne.. 😎
Immortan Joe actor Hugh Keays-Byrne is the same actor in the original antagonist in Mad Max as Toecutter.

You will RIDE ETERNAL for this
This is not a reboot, it is a sequel to Thunderdome. There is a series of comic books and a video game that take place shortly before this movie and it fills in some gaps between Thunderdome and this movie. Because Tom Hardy is younger than Mel Gibson most people get confused about the time line but this is basically the same story as when Mel was connected to the film. This is the same Max Rockatansky we've been following all along.
Yeah, some people referred to it as a reboot but it is simply a direct sequel to Thunderdome. Some guy on UA-cam did an excellent video about the timeline. You can do the math and see that the tattoo on Max’s back doesn’t work for someone as young as Hardy. It was supposed to be Mel at the age he was when this was originally supposed to get made. Searching for Mad Max timeline should get you to that video (or two? I forget.) pretty easily.
I've been waiting for this!
Wait no more!
@@TBRSchmitt antonpictures.wordpress.com/2014/01/07/the-notebook-2004-1080p/ what movie name description
The right rear tire on his car is actually stuffed with rags and sewn with wire.
I want to see his reaction to the milk scene.
This is entertaining movie I wish they would have Put Mel in it like Old Logan they could have had old Max still kicking Ass thanks for reacting
Mel Gibson being in this movie would have instantly elevated this film
That was the plan originally. After a very interesting period directing stuff that was worlds away from the "Mad Max" series George Miller lost years not making his "Justice League" movie, then he and Mel were going to do a version of this in Namibia but 9/11 happened and there were security concerns so it was delayed. Then after waiting years for the stars to align and for Miller to take a break from "Happy Feet" movies, Mel got on with his own shit and became less interested in being in another "Mad Max" movie, which I totally get. He's no spring chicken, ya know.
I love the fact that what Max really does is travel the Wasteland of finding disparate populations and helping them find their Promised Land.
Greatest practical action movie in 2015 I ever watched with cars and stuff cars are freaking epic in this movie weird cool looking
Witness!
Shiny and Chrome!
It's not a reboot. George Miller wanted Max to be like a legend that everyone has their own version of a story where he came and ended up doing good and then going off to do another thing. Almost like after the first film, none of them are really in any particular order.
The red haired wife is played by Riley Keogh
Her grandfather was a very famous singer, you may have heard of him.
Elvis Presley
Hugh Keys Berne who played Toecutter in the first one plays Immortan Joe here. Acrually.. I seem to recall you guys reacted to the "American english dub", not the Auzzie original. If so I highly reccomend rewatching it in its "original language"
Yeah he was fantastic in both roles! I think we did do the original dub but I’ll double check cause I definitely wouldn’t want to miss out on that!
@@TBRSchmitt my bad.. you did the original one.. it was another channel that did the American dub.. which is just painful to listen to 😂
@@DanJackson1977 hahaha might just have to check it out to see how bad. I’m not very good with cringe stuff though lol
You both mentioned Max not saying much and when he does, it is rough. If you take a look at the Mad Max fan lore pages, you will learn that since the apocalypse when Max went off on his own, he spent many years alone not needing to talk. This may result in the diminishing ability to speak. Of course this is speculation from the lore pages.
Forgot to add - the VW bug covered in spikes is an homage/nod to another Australian car movie, the Peter Weir film 'The Cars That Ate Paris'.
Yes, it is indeed! "The Cars That Ate Paris" is nothing like a "Mad Max" movie though so if you look for it expecting that you will be disappointed. It's worth a look, but Peter Weir is a different animal to George Miller.
I remember going to the cinema to see this, i'd seen a few bits of the old mad maxes on TV at times and thought it'd just be a cynical reboot. I remember me and my buddy turning to one-another as the title slammed into place with our mouths open in excited shock: this was something exceptional.
yooo Tim
good on ya
i hope. you better have included the amplifier drummer guitar car part.
nice to see you two colab.
Thanks, was fun to do
Are hand-made cars, made from several part and pieces from other ruined machines. Not a series car with programmed deformation, solid chasis or continuous parts. In hand-made car (and in fully customs car like this), the destruction is more chaotic than a modern series car, made to absorb and disipate the energy of an impact.
It does, in fact, work like that
masterpiece
you should watch it in the directors original black&chrome version. it is done so the black is pure black and the white has a shiny chrome like look to it.
Best movie of all time. It's almost a crime to watch this on a small computer or a laptop for the first time!
I am the culprit too ☹️
You should watch all dogs go to heaven (1989)
Charlie cheats death by stealing a gold pocket watch representing his life and winding it back. As Charlie descends back to Earth, the whippet angel tells him that he can never return to Heaven; when the watch stops again, he will be sent to Hell instead. However, as long as the watch continues to run, Charlie will be immortal.
I have always liked the theory that this max is actually the feral kid from 2
I will always love the first one
My favorite movie. So good!
Good choice!
I don't know if you've ever seen Twister, i believe you would enjoy it
Hello. Odd question this but are you french? Just watched rush hour 3 and your accents are very similar for some reason idk 😂😂
Yes i’m French Canadian!
Just think, if not for a writers strike and the Australian film board cancelling some of the funding, George Miller would have filmed 'Justice League Mortal' instead of Mad Max. Instead he went ahead and finished the Mad Max script and shot that instead. Hugh Keays Byrne was cast as Martian Manhunter and the other female warrior biker was Wonder Woman. George Miller gave them parts in Fury Road as consolation.
Masterpiece!
My one issue with this film is the vehicles in The Road Warrior were believable. They are what people could build and salvage after an apocalypse. The vehicles in this are ridiculously over the top and it hurt my suspension of disbelief a bit.
i just realized so much of the lines sound like voiceovers
this movie is crazy. great with hdr colors too.
This movie is all adrenalin ....
It's be kinda a funny if Angharad actually made it to the Many Mother's clan, only to find out that her child is a boy and she has to get rid of him, because it's a women only clan.
The car stunts are real as well they actually did crash those cars
