  • After almost ten years, George Miller is back to the Wasteland with an Anthology Film chronicling the story of FURY ROAD'S Imperator Furiosa! Mike and I hit the theatre to see it in LASER ULTRA last night and here's our review!

    If Fury Road was a fast action movie from start to finish, then Furiosa is a perfectly paced slow burn of world building and a good look at what revenge can do to you

    I love how many details you picked up while not missing the bigger picture. I adore this movie as well. Personally, this was one of my favourite cinema experiences ever.

    Are we not considering that Dementus manufactured the riot at gas town as part of his plot to take over the citadel. Or am I giving him too much credit?

    I really loved this movie. I don’t buy Dementus being Max though. I just think he is another wronged man gone berserk with despair and rage. And the Feral Kid grows up to be the Leader of the Northern Tribes who never see’s Max again.

    Fun Fact, Scrotus is the big ba of the Mad Max videogame for ps4, in the game he takes care of Gas Town as a Max kills him to get his car back, the game is considered non canon but could very well take place between Furiosa and Fury Road

    The original Mad Max had a son and not a daughter like Dr. D. Fun theory though.

    Fun breakdown, but I don't understand the need to have the timeline "make sense" with the Feral Kid theory, Dementus is Max, etc. I don't have the impression that Miller cares too much about that, though both Dementus and Jack are clearly meant to parallel Mad Max.
    I'm curious about the next one, especially since the plot sounds a lot like the video game which Miller lost creative control over (hence his comments about "only Hideo Kojima could do Mad Max justice in a game"). I just hope the story moves forward rather than being another prequel, as satisfying as this one was to watch.

    I loved the movie. Excellent, excellent action,visuals and story. Some parts funny, some parts shocking. Seeing the bullet farm and gas town, more world-building, was great. As the scope was bigger I didn’t mind there being more CGI.
    I don’t care too much for continuity but I don’t think Dementis is Max. Didn’t OG Max he have a permanently dilated left eye due to the crash in MM2? And Max has always been such a loner.
    Anyway, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Always want to do some modelling and kitbashing after watching a Mad Max film.

    First 3/4 of the movie was briliant. I get the parallels in the movie but Dementus seems to represent a direction Max Rockatansky could of went in but didn't.

      It's a bit too long IMO. As much as I loved Furiosa's mother, I think the first hour takes a long time to tell a pretty simple story.

    Leg brace is on his right leg, Max had it on the left. I loved everything except the ending montage of Fury Road, it seemed very unnecessary and ruins a double feature to have that in the middle.

  • @timeguy441
    @timeguy441 Місяць тому +2

    Interesting take on the Dementus and Mel's Mad Max. hard to think after the events in beyond thunder dome he becomes that character. I personally dont buy it but it's up to your interpretation. PLUS Mel's mad Max has never been shirtless like that and has an aesthetic throughout the films. I dont see him losing that style even if he does become warlord. I think it makes more sense that he's what max would've been had he gone down that road.

    • @nerdinwolfsclothing
      @nerdinwolfsclothing Місяць тому

      The problem with that is your not recognizing the fact that Dementus is no longer Max. He's lost his mind. The wasteland has won! This is fully and completely lost Max. His mind is gone, and so we are seeing him boiled down to his madness with hints of the former max coming out from time to time.

    Truthfully, I did expect another fury Road. I was pretty disappointed for a day. I watched a bunch of reviews, and all of the reviews agree that it’s a good movie, but fury Road is just too high achievement to follow up without reducing your expectations.

    It's a good movie, but it is loooong in the shadow of Fury Road and that just won't help it's reception. Anya was a perfect choice for Furiosa.

  • @Anchises
    @Anchises Місяць тому +2

    This is the first time I've heard the Dementus = OG Max theory. Very interesting idea, although if that's the intent, I wish they had cast someone other than Hemsworth. I also wish there'd been a bit more internal conflict with Dementus if he's meant to represent a declining antihero rather than just another wasteland warlord. I didn't see his 'niceness' at the start as genuine, but rather as a ruse by an already psychopathic man.
    I thought it was a well-made movie but didn't enjoy the lore and story as much as you guys did. I felt like the 'bad' characters of Fury Road function mostly as symbols for various aspects of humanity e.g. greed, rapacity, violence etc. and don't think they quite hold up as 'real' political entities or people. I would much rather have seen a sequel that explored the future of the Wasteland under Furiosa and the wives.

      In serial fiction, the term "reboot" signifies a new start to an established fictional universe, work, or series. That's what we see with Fury Road. It's not a retelling of the original story, it's a new start with a new Max.
