Released a mere 2 years after the original, Mad Max 2 completely changed the image of the franchise and set the standard for sequels to come. It also obviously was a heavy influence in the Fallout franchise, thanks to the huge budget and market penetration it had. Quite a mark was left on the world with this movie.. but how does it stack up today?

the guy that broke his leg was his first gig as a stuntman in this movie and after a long career as a stuntman he did his last stunt crashing the war rig in fury road
Kinda fitting
Mad Max is apocalyptic and The Road Warrior is post-apocalyptic. Easy.
Whats Beyond Thunderdome?
@@alexander1485 post post apocalyptic
The Road Warrior is one of the best movies ever made.
It is.
18:59 yep, that´s a shell, but these are the lines he says:
Hey kid!
Get the bullet, the bullet!
Get the shell!
So, Max probably knows thats a shell, and said bullet so that Feral Kid an undestand, as people commonly know what a bullet is but don´t know what a shell is.
I see the first Mad Max movie as "pre"- post apocalyptic. It does a convincing enough job of showing that society is starting to decay and become more and more hectic, but it hasn't really broken down completely. I thought the overall cinematography and the action scenes were pretty entertaining. Overall it's a great action film, that utilizes it's low budget in the best way. Certainly not as good as the second film but still pretty damn good.
@Redmund Ironically NEITHER 1-2 are "post-apocalyptic" as this all takes place right before the big bang. That happened after MM 2. It is mentioned in part 3. Part 1 is when the economy crashed due to global tension between two major nations and there was no financial growth. There was probably an oil shortage world wide and people started to turn on the law and government who lost control. Which is pretty much what the MFP was created for, as a last attempt at order. They failed and people started to steal and kill one another for resources. Come 2, its all over and people are fleeing the city to try to survive (The truck in the beginning is laded up with household goods as the person tried to take it all with him). Hence why a lot of Humongous's gang are ex-cops as they were the few who had the resources to drive and attack those fleeing. Come after the events of part 2, that is when those two nations decided to drop the big ones. I would imagine most major cities across the globe who allied were targeted. That is why people like Max and those in the wasteland survived and why fallout is an issue.
@@gutz1981 Yep, that's pretty much how it all shook out.
@Gremlin87 Yeah civilization has fell apart in Mad Max 1. Hence the roving biker gangs, and the rag tag police. I like to believe, that Max, and many of the MFP, and even some of the biker gang were veterans of Vietnam, or the "oil wars." I've loved these movies since I was kid, back in the 80's.
@Detente no it's not it's pre-apocalypse
@Detente one is not post apocalypse
The two main gangs led by the Humungus are called the Smegma Crazies and the Gay Boy Berserkers. But no, Wez totally isn’t gay. Really.
I like to think that WWIII happened before the first Mad Max, but common amenities haven't yet run out or become uncommon. Here in Road Warrior we see civilization lose its grip as stuff like gas starts to run out. In Thunderdome, we see gas as we know it run completely out and yet people are trying to rebuild with new technology. This is just my interpretation of the situation based on the first three movies only.
Agreed. Your description is more or less the way I've always viewed the mad max universe.
i like how the game that came out in 2016 is based on the second movie
Either that or Mad Max is set during WW3 and Road Warrior is set after; but where does Fury Road fit in? I'm not sure if Tom Hardy's Max is meant to be Mel Gibson's Max or someone that grew up hearing the stories.
@@adamstringer7092 I definitely see Tom Hardy's Max and Mel Gibson's Max as two separate people. I like to think Tom Hardy's Max named himself after the original Max as a tribute to him.
Back at a con in Atlanta, had the pleasure of running into Wells, he stopped at my table, perused my works, "So you're into cartoon animal women?", "Yes?", he got a chuckle and moved on, so he's either a closet furry, or he found that amusing.
I like the scene of the kid and his boomerang...when he throws it and a guy thinks he can catch it, but gets his fingers chopped off.
I was utterly surprised by how much better The Road Warrior was to the original film. The cinematography was perfect, the action was massively improved upon, the characters were different and unique, the acting was great, and the pacing was incredibly sharp.
It definitely has a lot more fun and spectacle behind it compared to Mad Max 1. It's like George Miller took what was well done in the first film and made it many times better here, and needless to say, it certainly shows.
Mad Max 2 is definitely a must watch for fans of post-apocalyptic films, as well as average movie-goers in general. As a film by itself, it's a fantastically well-done piece of film-making. As a sequel, it's an undeniable near-masterpiece.
The Batman Of Neo-Gotham it shows you how much money makes a difference.
Loved the first one.
Thats beause your an idiot who doesn't seem to understand they were made decades apart using tech they had available to them at that time. Your opinion means nothing because you dont understand how anything works
I agree, always the way that he never was backed originally so he got backed secondly and hence a sci fi classic.
Vernon Wells(Mohawk Biker) played Bennett in Commando. Never would have thought it was the same actor, found out a couple weeks ago.
Mad Max will ride eternal shiny and chrome.
& beyond the Thunderdomes of VALHALLA
Haha
Is that a references of the black and chrome version of furry road?
Mint Mag furry road. Haha
@@Brantlins You knew what I meant.
Hey Decker, did you know that Vernon Wells in this movie was in Power Rangers Time Force? He was the main bad guy and delivered a damn fine performance.
Don't forget Weird Science and Commando. "You're getting old, John."
Vernon Wells is a great guy. I am meeting him again in March
Satoshi Katsumoto WHO CARES?
Satoshi Katsumoto yes he did. Thanks for sharing.
The dude with a bone machete in his body? Huh. Neat
Mad Max was not post-apocalyptic. It took place *during* the apocalypse, or the earliest days of it at least. The first film was supposed to take place during (or immediately after) a war between Saudi Arabia & Iran, in the late 70s, which precipitated a global oil shortage. Mad Max takes place once that oil shortage has taken hold and as society is beginning to crumble. The Road Warrior takes place several years after that, during the final phase of society's fall. Thunderdome is set many years after this, and also after the great powers have had one last, nuclear war as sort of a death-spasm.
I see ties with the novel On The Beach (Nevil Shute) and perhaps points of inspiration for the first Mad Max.
I've heard the Goose-as-Humungus was something dropped at the last minute, and a relic of this is his gang riding motorcycles and wearing police gear. Also, Humungus's gun and obscured face do to his injuries from the last movie. Knowing this, I've always watched with the theory that Humungus IS Goose. It just makes the whole film better for me.
Troy Schulz I prefer Fifi as Humungus and the gang are all ex MFP
If they did keep goose as humungus here's what I think woulda happened: Max knocks off humungus' mask realising that it was goose,but goose wouldn't recognize Max because of him going crazy due to the burns. Max would tell goose it was him and goose would say "max went off years ago with the V-8 and thought I died but I didn't. He will pay"
Why would the Goose turn into that guy? He was a man of high ideals
@@adriandude85 dont think Fifi wouldn't make more sense... Although Charlie and Roop apparently went Marauder according to the comics that came out woth fury road
I like to think that the Humungus is just an unknown warlord of some style. He seems to be like a Nazi sympathizer.
Guy norris (the guy who broke his leg) might actually appreciate your enthusiastic delivery. Stunt guys can be funny about things like that.
It may also be worth noting that he played every marauder that boarded the tanker, at least in the shots while they were boarding. And also crashed the war rig in fury road, with it being his last stunt before retiring. From doing actual stunts, i mean. He is also a very talented coordinator and assistant director as well.
he was also INSIDE the buggy that gets dragged behind the tanker. Hell of a stuntman.
eyesoresoob among too many others to name in this film. He also does a little actual acting as the bearclaw mohawker.
18:59 I know this is old, but shotgun ammunition are usually called shells, at least from where I’ve been around. In order to generalize the name, so as not to have to say buckshot, birdshot, or slugs, especially if you don’t know which type it is.
3:22 the concept dog companions in fallout games were mainly influnenced by Harlen Ellison's story A Boy and His Dog and the film of the novella. The companion in Fallout 1 in Fallout 3 were inspired after the breed of Max's dog.The 1975 film inspired miller to make Mad Max
Max did say ...grab the shell .
are you sure that dogmeat saved the day? I'm pretty sure he was busy blocking max from getting in his car by standing in the door
Nate Witecki at least dogmeat isn't slowly pushing him to one side or the other while he's trying to search lockers for loot...
That's what Dogmeat does best
Max's dog was just named Dog, not Dog Meat... fyi
I always loved the scene of the mechanic relating the tremendous damage and then saying it's going to take about a half a day.
The movie holds up very well because of the Practical effects. My God that was a huge explosion. And you could see the fire spreading through the cloud in a way they not doing in CGI explosions yet.
Hey Decker, I know I've asked you this before, but since you've now tackled Australian cult cinema I thought I'd ask you again: have you seen the movie Razorback? It's an Australian 80s horror movie about a giant killer wild boar and it's one of my all-time favorite movies, and I'd love to see you reviewing it. It's done by the same guy who went on to direct Highlander, has the same cinematographer as Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior as well as actress Arkie Whiteley (the Gyro Captain's love interest in Mad Max 2) in a major role. If you haven't seen it you have to check it out, it's a cult gem for fans of everything horror and Australian!
it was also shot in the same location; Silverton NSW. the same dry riverbed where max first encounters gyro is featured in one particularly creepy scene.
The pinnacles (the Hills Max perches on overlooking the compound) are often visible in the background.
Great Flick.
Vernon Welss thought up that farmhouse story... he became at peace with it eventually
The dogs that tend to fallow mad max around is called Dinnki or Dinnik D same as the dog food brand we see though out the movie just thought you'd like to know. Because knowing is half the battle
That's just in the game.....it's just dog
A small channel called RedEye Reviews just interviewed Vernon Wells (red mohawk) a few weeks ago, the guy is STILL working.
The way I always took the timeline and its confusion: Mad Max is set in a podunk city out in the boonies of Asutralia. The bombs dropped about a year before the start of the movie, but no official news has reached them yet so they are trying to progress along like a functioning city. Once Max took off into the wastes he came to realize that society has in fact collapsed long ago.
Played by Ren on steroids I think. Big metal hockey mask hides the chihuahua beneath. He never got over the loss of stimpy.
Loving the Fallout references.
3:49 Actually, the dume buggy was being driven by one of Pappagallo's scouts. Right? Maybe they were an unaffiliated "loner stalker."
4:16 / 12:56 All chaps are assless.
5:15 They never explain how or why the scar on his right eyebrow switches to his left eyebrow in Beyond Thunderdome. Nor do they explain why he lacks facial scars in Beyond Thunderdome (from the wounds he sustains toward the end of The Road Warrior) which should be on the left side of his face. I guess, if we're going by George Miller's own assertion that each Mad Max movie is supposed to be like a campfire story told by a bard's interpretation of the exploits of a mythic hero, then continuity errors can be excused. So then why do they always remember this his knee brace goes on his left leg? Or that he's right-handed and straps his sawed-off to his right thigh? If one side-specific detail doesn't matter, then none of them should matter. Contrariwise, if one side-specific details does matter, then they all should matter.
5:46 Bruce Spence has been in everything.
5:59 I wonder if Bruce ever thought about what might have happened to the fingertips of his left hand had he actually loosed a bolt while grasping the crossbow like that.
6:42 The origin of the word "guzzleline." It only sounds natural coming from Bruce Spence.
8:24 He picks his battles wisely. He knows that one or two against an organized gang is futile, no matter how much he'd like to go down there and end them rightly.
9:10 We're supposed to believe Max is a selfish prick here, but I call malarkey on that. "Quid pro quo" is the basis of civilization. Without symbiosis, there's only parasitism. Max may be a scavenger, but he's not a parasite. Anyway, what's wrong with being a scavenger? Scavengers make use of others' refuse, thereby doing their part to sustain equilibrium in the ecosystem.
11:15 "Quid pro quo, Clarice."
12:04 Again, is that scavenger a scout from Pappagallo's camp or just an unaffiliated "lone stalker?"
12:07 I've always wondered why he puts it in the left breach and not the right. You know, since the front trigger is easier to pull and corresponds with the firing pin on the right side.
13:21 I've never understood why Mel holds his hogleg like that with his index finger on the front trigger and his middle finger on the rear trigger. You sacrifice a lot of grip strength that way. In fact, you'd only do that if you intended to fire a double-shot and he only has one shell loaded anyway, plus you'd never fire a double-shot one-handed unless you were a cyborg. People have messed up their fingers and wrists attempting shit like that. Firing single controlled shots out of a sawed-off one-handed is entirely possible, though. Would be more comfortable with a contoured backstrap, preferably rubberized or padded in some way. Anything to protect the palm and the web of the hand from the cam lever during recoil. Also put pistol sights on the rib to improve aiming. Yes, you still need to aim a sawed-off to be effective with it.
13:40 Wez is totally in his element in this scene.
14:31 But he's also tall.
15:07 Clever callback.
19:00 *THANK YOU!* It always pissed me off that supposedly "right-wing maniac" Mel Gibson would have referred to a shotgun shell as a "bullet." There *are* such things as 12-gauge bullets (.729 caliber or 18.5mm), but they're used in safari rifles which are made to sustain much higher pressures than shotguns which use comparatively slow-burning powder.
20:04 That was the last that particular tribe ever saw of him, so the statement is literally true from the perspective of that character.
I'm sure many would decide to be bristling with knives if they found them selves in a violence ruled apocalypse. Especially if you have the hand eye skills of Max.
Decker it may be a 8:30 minute fan film but how about covering "Mad Max Renegade" before hitting Fury Road since the person who played Max in that tried to get the part of Max in Fury Road
that "seeing double" joke just earned you a like!!
9:55 holy shit didn't know SawggerSouls was in this movie😂
Guy Norris didn't actually break his leg. His leg was already broken in a previous accident and had been repaired with a pin. The impact with the buggy bent the pin in his leg. It was such an unusual injury that it was written up in a medical journal. Granted he was back on set in a cast playing the Bearclaw .
THAT'S what I always thought: Why do the marauders always seem have gasoline for their vehicles to spend with all their chases but need the settlement's fuel source?
haha great timing for your upload. was just checking in on your page. :D
"Assless chaps" is redundant, chaps with ass fabric are called "Pants". Saying "assless chaps" is like saying "Sleeveless vest".
And this was made two years after the 1st one.
the humongous actually inspired the design of Bane
Max... Machete before Machete was a thing.
The guys who made mad max also made happy feet
Humungus turned nitro on to catch up to max, he didn’t realise max had turned truck around so that’s why they had head on
The first ones takes place at the very end/ending of the war with many places not hit very hard , It was about people trying to hold one to what they had and keep some kinda order/normal life style. Part 2 is the fall of man where nothing is as it was and no one is able to try to act like it is.
I guess I just always assumed that Mad Max I occurred during WWIII. The way people acted in that movie, it reminded me of how (during war time) local events often get overlooked in favor of national interests. And that's what we see to a very high degree as the local police force is understaffed and overpowered by gangs. So, while most of the brave, patriotic men are off fighting a foreign enemy somewhere, the locals are left to their own devices. And given the dread and hopelessness around the war, it leads the people who didn't go to war to act like selfish fuckwits, preparing for a barbaric world and exacerbating that very problem.
RIP Dogmeat. You were the greatest.
Fallout also has references to A Boy and His Dog, so when is that getting reviewed? :p
It's not that weird that he knows about the gas farm but doesn't raid it. He's one guy with a gyrocopter, and they have ballistas and flamethrowers
maybe the reason the Mad Max universe doesn't make sense continuity wise is because....... it's all in Max's head.
After his family was murdered he snapped. that's why the world around him falls more into ruin as the movies progress; it's a reflection of his shattered mind.
he also finds himself in situations where he has to help people; because of his own guilt of not being able to save his own family.
Max's dog is named Dog, not Dog Meat...
The comics had the timeline correct as those went by what the writers and directions ofthe movies stated.
Also, I absolutely love Bruce Spence in everything he appears in!
Jeez - it matters where you are during “the apocalypse.” The novel On the Beach as well as Mad Max begins with the premise that Australia is far from the conflict, therefore isn’t bombed out in the first movie. As far as the conventions of the genre, this movie defined them. But for my money, Mad Max felt more authentically post-apocalyptical than Thunderdome. If the apocalypse happened tomorrow, my house wouldn’t necessarily fall down and re-rise made out of oil cans and garbage nor would all my clothes fall apart and leave me with only bondage gear, football pads, and tire treads.
I can’t take the main villains seriously
Their leader is SNM Jason Vorhees for fuck sake
Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior is my number one favourite film of all time
There was a long time theory that humungus was max's old boss.
Most rewatchable movie in history!…. 💯
My favourite film forever
I offer a heartfelt salute for the two saddest deaths in the film--
Dogmeat💔, and
The Last of the V8s💔!

I am of the firm opinion the first Mad Max was pre-Apocalypse I get the confusion as it's always very hard to follow the Mad Max movies timeline as the details always seem to differ between movies. Miller has stated this is intentional as he sees the Mad Max movies as basically camp fire stories which is why Max and the world he inhabits is always a bit different because even if the same story is being told it will vary slightly depending on who's telling it. That's just how camp fire stories are. This mentality applied to a movie franchise makes any continuity confusing but it's how Miller made it.
The greatest action, the greatest apocalyptic, greatest dystopia, and greatest modern western movie ever made
Big Fan! Always enjoy your videos Decker
Miller opened a new standard in action and scifi genre creating the easiest story with an iconic hero everybody in the whole world could understand and sympathize with.
Gritty violence, Frazzetta comic style, fast-speed pace, amazing photography and totally fascinating and disturbing post-apocalyptic look. Many tried to copy, no one got it.
My favorite film, I watched it for the first time at 14 years old and I freaked out! I've seen a million of times after that (and there's only one Max Rockatansky: Mel Gibson, know what the Hell I mean?)
Bit late to the party but for some reason I always thought Humongous was Fifi. Tho the locks of fucked up hair you can see behind the mask kind of kills that theory I guess since Fifi was bald, he definitely had the body for the part tho, unlike Goose.
Never really considered Wez and The Golden Boy being lovers before, but it makes perfect sense, on a couple levels.
1. The teen is smaller and weaker. Having Wez as a SO, or father figure, accounting for the story, as Wez is in a right hand man, to Humungous. No one that wanted to live is going to cross him.
2. It's a wasteland. Pregnancy would not be a wise choice, survival wise. And there are several gay members of the gang, for just that reason. Every character has a back story, By Miller.
He mentions it in an interview.
Including the Car beque De Soto driver sporting the Pink beard.
And 3, the world is kinda like a prison, and this group takes by force, like some do in prison. We see the end result when Max walks over, snd takes the guy out with bolt cutters. Don't see too many women outside the compound. Slim pickings out there.
And one more is casually taken out in the final chase scene as well.
Like all urges we find a way to satisfy them.
And no. I'm not a homophobe. Frankly, who someone loves and is attracted to doesn't make a difference to, as long as they aren't trying to pick me up. And even then, I take it as a compliment, but politely inforn fhe other party that I am both straight, And married.
It's literally how I met 3 of my closest friends.
So, to George Miller, thank you for including that into the story.
That movie has some serious big brass balls. So does the first one.
Creators said the war happens before 1 but the societal collapse between 1 and 2 and then like right after 2 the Nukes get dropped, as explained by the tribe in 3 and the creators
Bombs dropped after Road Warrior- 15 years before Beyond Thunderdome.
I always thought of Mad Max as pocalyptic, but that it was set at a coastal region, near a great city. Australia had more of a social collapse.
I wonder if a studded leather codpiece would offer more protection than say just a leather one. I know it's probably just for appearance\aesthetic but that IS a pretty err vulnerable spot.
They blew up Max's car and killed his dog. Plot sounds familiar.
*The post apocalypse thing*
It probably was a retcon, though it's also easily explained by not everywhere totally going to hell all at once. Places that are fare away from large cities and important infrastructure probably aren't touched by the nukes directly and society could limp along for quite a while.
I think a bigger issue with the gas is that... it spoils over time! Yea, after about a year it's no good as fuel in a car anymore. You can put things in it to preserve it but you have to know to do that.
wow decker was able to fit in an ass ton of fallout jokes in this review no wonder it took so damn long to be uploaded XD
Mad Max 2 & 4 are great examples of how to build your world and characters without an onslaught of tedious, eye rolling, dialogue. One often wonders why the writers of today refuse to learn these lessons.
Lol, Fury Turd is awful in every way possible.
I always took the Golden Boy to be Wez's lover/sub, but him being his son works just as well for me.
Mad Max1 is situated in an extreme recession.
You do know a post-apocalyptic setting won't just happen overnight it would take many years for the apocalypse to actually set in. Everything wouldn't fall apart at the same time. The government would fall first and then everything else. Till everything ceases to work many communities will try to keep things going.
Feral Old Man should not be considered to be a very reliable narrator in opening. He was probably only a couple years old when the world ended. He would've had to rely on second hand info. Who knows how many years it took for him to learn how to communicate enough for people to give him what details they could of the war. Plus, Max didn't give out any details of his past. All they had was Papigallo's seemingly correct guess that Max had lost his family at some point.
The Golden Boy being a son idea came from Vernon Wells being a homophobe
Pretty sure the first Mad Max was set during a time when society was still hanging on but quite clearly about to collapse
I LOVE YOU DECKER!!!!
P.s. youre supposed to use .45 long colt in your .410, .454 is one and done
Unless its the Taurus judge model that takes all 3
Just think! If not for this movie, we would have never had Professional Wrestler gimmicks like Lord Humongous, The Road Warriors (LOD Hawk and Animal), the Barbarian, the Warlord, and Chris Jericho would have never become The Ayatollah of Rock N Rollah!!!
All chaps are assless. They are basically just leather leg armor. Those weren't chaps, those were assless leather pants.
15:13 fuck Sun shine where the hells the ice cream. Is a line I’ll write in a script.
Never watch this movie the day before your driver's test. Trust me on this.
so the he was right "possibly" the gyro could carry 2 people, especially if they are light, would need to ditch any excess weight & probably have handling issues.
I agree that one is rightfully allowed to use the movies "as is" to determine a timeline, here's a link for anyone who is curious.
madmax.wikia.com/wiki/Timeline_of_events_(original_trilogy)
5 out of ten, more like 9 out of 10
I have a theory about the Mad Max universe. What if there IS no gas shortage and the warlords plus their cohorts are perpetuating this myth to maintain power?
Kinda reminds me of the world today.
I can’t give this film enough superlatives. It is so good for me and I am normally very critical.
@@Bb-pw1zi 👍
Damn, Bethesda took more from these films than I thought.
Adam Stringer they were also influenced by a boy and his dog (70's movie that was out before the first mad max) and damnation alley (another post apocalyptic 70's flick that was made two years before the first MM) but yeah ...the road warrior is the quintessential post apocalyptic film so it influenced a lot of stuff in media
Adam Stringer It wasn't Bethesda, it was Black Isle Studios.
In a post apocalyptic waste without gas stations people wont drive cars that get 6 mpg.
kjell is actually pronounced just like "shell"
Had a thought occur to me. Why ammo woukd be scarce. Outside of LE and the military, or combat sports, how many people know how to effectively fight with mele weapons, edged weapons, or their hands? I'd bet it's a small percentage of the population.
Most that seek a means of defense tend to go for firearms and ammunition. Maybe bows and crossbows, as ranged weapon's keep you safe at a distance, and up close. Teouble with that is?
An old military and western adage is, Never fire twice. One shot, unless it's close, or from an obvious spot, most can't detect the direction. 2 or more, they are listening way more, and will pick up the direction you are in. Always keep noise down.
And what will said group, that now knows where you are, do afrer they are done with you? Loot the corpses, dwellings, and vehicles.
If you enjoyed any of the Mad Max movies please check out my new sci fi novel, Mission Trip.

The oil wasn't destroyed because of a world war. the narrator says that "two major tribes" went to war, and they were Iran and Saudi Arabia.
The dog is shorthand for a explanation of what Max is. Without too much exposition.
DOGMEAT NO!!!!
Mad max could have avoided all of this had he just disguised himself as a Nuns un. Like in '.un on the Run' (1990). Starring Robbie Coltrane.
301 baby yeah!
The movie for the ages!
