This film is going to be better than Mad Max 2.

I don't care for Chris Hemsworth. Anyas looking cute though. This is one of those movies that I'll reluctantly watch on MAX when it's inevitably dumped there after a lukewarm box office performance.
same mostly cause my gf is a woman and watches woman things and I think Anya is hot (though she needs to stop losing weight)
I showed my gf Max Max 2 because it's one of my favorite films but she just got hung up on all the homoerotic costumes
The road warrior? The most celebrated film in america, Furiosa will be better?
NO, it is the perfect film
There's morons on this board who sincerely believe that the first film is better than this one lmao
Gnosis is realizing the third is the best.
It starts off fascinating and then sputters quickly, overall quite watchable and worthy
It's far from perfect, but it is what originally introduced the desert voodoo shit and the "silent lands" and all that. Basically, and this is canon according to this mainline movie; Max wanders around until he is an old man, until he finally gets to the opposite side of Australia and arrives on the coast. We're talking decades. And that's why somewhere, loosely, sits the game as well. Me, personally, until Miller mans up and gives us an on-screen Chumbucket to make up for this bullshit, he's dead to me.
I had a lot of fun with that game, a sequel or sorts wouldn't hurt
Same. The game did ok, too from what I remember. Probably a monkey's paw in the making though. Imagine the sequel as a Furiosa game. Not sure I'd take the gamble, but I reckon the movie will tank, so frick them.
WB took Miller's concepts for Fury Road+Furiosa+The Wasteland, blocked Miller from the game's development, then made an original story from the jumbled mess of ideas. The game is filled with spoilers for Furiosa but it's out of context
Makes me wonder how big is the wasteland in Mad Max. According to the videogame, some time during the apocalypse part of the oceanic coast evaporated.
No, as soon as the kids enter picture the movie goes to shit, but the first 30 minutes are fantastic.
it is
>It's better because it's less interesting, less popular, and less influential
Okay nerd
>less popular or influential
neither of those things matter
What does matter then? What makes the first one better?
And I always will
It still amazes me how this movie invented an entire aesthetic and core and no one had the balls to ever replicate it in any other piece of media in any significant way.
Mad Max 2 is greater than life, I think the closest something came to replicate the feeling and power of Road Warrior was Hokuto no Ken.
Fallout for example constantly fails to understand Mad Max
uuuuh there are tons of Mad Max clones
2020 was a crazy year.
Yeah there was tons, it was a huge trend, sort of like superhero films nowadays
>this movie invented an entire aesthetic
You mean ripped off A Boy And His Dog 1975 (and Things To Come 1936)
80s was full of Italian Mad Max ripoffs. It spawned its own post-apocalyptic subgenre.
Fist of The North Star
also the tabletop game Car Wars, though tbf that was published before Mad Max's American release
Car Wars and Mad Max also inspired GW's Battlecars and videogames like Autoduel and Roadwar 2000
Speaking of cars, the influence of Mad Max is also present in Twisted Metal, reminder the first two canon winners of twisted metal are the brother and sister cops.
OP here, naw I'm just fricking around.
This film looks like total garbage.
How the frick is a 90-lb woman supposed to be a "bad ass" in a post-apocalyptic setting.
>Pic related is what would actually happen
If this b***h is selling her chin then someone is getting a raw deal.
I am glad Miller finally got to make his Furiosa prequel movie, too bad it wasn't animated like he originally wanted.
>Furisoa (sic)is in “a different gear” and “won’t matchFury Road‘s splendor” in a way that “might frustrate” some audiences. One critic saidFuriosafelt more like the first twoMad Maxfilms
>I would and could easily watch 15 hours of Anya Taylor Joy and Alyla Browne as #Furiosa, however much of her film struggles with inconsistent pacing due to the segmented story. This won't match up to Fury Road's splendor but it also doesn't need to.
Everything Hemsworth is in bombs (Extraction doesnt count since it pandered to the poos)
>Everything Ayyy is in bombs
Fix'd
Is just not the same after the buccal fat fiasco. Dropped and don't care.
check out the dress anya wore at the sydney premiere
That's gotta be occult right
buccalt
I can see her bum.
I think that was the idea
Lewd yet scientific
how did she sit
Not that I trust early reactions since the critics always seem to tiptoe around anything negative lest they get blocked from future early screenings but
>(But No ‘Fury Road’)
Yeah, that's what I expected.
>Furiosa's actual name is Furiosa
>who are your people?
>I don't have people
>well you look furious
>Buccalosa: A Mad Max Surgery
oh no
>And a slight case of fetal alcohol syndrome
Surgery bawds and Buccal Bimbos make my peepee move.
She definitely looked Argentinian before the surgery lmao.
>moron doesn't understand shadows and angles
she looks just fine
i fricking love Anya so much bros, its unreal
>He doesnt know about Ayylmaos disguise tech
ngmi
This makes me feel like Wilfred Brimley doing The Thing autopsy. I'll never understand why perfectly good looking people mutilate themselves. Looks like someone in the final stages of AIDS.
Yep, so its more Thunderdome than Fury Road.
looks fun
I remember when actresses underwent intense physical fitness regimens prior to playing badass characters.
Linda Hamilton worked out for like 6-months before returning to Terminator 2.
Uma Therman spent 3-months learning martial arts before filming Kill Bill.
Etc.
Anya Taylor Joy doesn't look like she did any prep for the character in this film.
in anyas defense, the character could be a more organic version of a young girl formed into an able warrior, so thematically the script might not call for that
exactly, she looks she'd topple over in a strong wind
>Anya Taylor Joy doesn't look like she did any prep for the character in this film.
good
It'll bomb worse than The Fall Guy which had the golden boy flavor of the month Ryan Gosling.
Old mad max are slops frick off already
terrible taste the first two movies are some of the best action adventure movies of all time
I can't take Furiosa seriously. This shit is ridiculous. Anya Taylor Joy has no credibility.
she has all the credibility natalie portman did as eye candy, just without the benefit of being put in arthouse schlock so she can pretend to be a serious actress.
this isnt zendaya or sydney were talking about, Anya has done a ton of roles since she became a scream queen in split
the reviews say it's more similar to the first 3 movies instead of fury road
>I like turtles
""""critic"""" opinions mean less than nothing in current year
they're just paid shills and this looks like horrid cgslop
Why does this flick look way cheaper than Fury Road despite having a bigger budget
>Bidenomics
chris hemsworth is an optical illusion, he makes every movie he's in look like cheap slop
It will make the same money LMAOOOOOOOOOOOO
36mil in 1981 is 123.70mil in 2024.
>36mil in 1981 is 123.70mil in 2024.
That's fricking insane btw. Thanks Biden.
>t. chuds
Happy Feet Won
I liked Thunderdome
for me, its Solarbabies
Had this as a kid.

We'll see how Furiosa does. Some of it seems janky to me, but hopefully it turns out to be a gem.
>Even though I understand what it takes to make a film, I still don’t understand how Dr. George Miller does it. I was lucky enough to see ‘Furiosa’ a month ago, and I’m still reeling at how films like his exist. It’s so intricate, detailed, and immersive. The planning and love that have gone into the staging, blocking, and design are just unreal. Hats off to George and team for giving us 45 years of imaginative, visceral cinema. The movie is a feast for your eyes and ears, a full circle to the first Max adventure in 1979.
>Also, the subtitle, ‘A Mad Max Saga’, is not wrong as this is a revenge epic, more than a chase movie like ‘Fury Road’. The closest comparison was something like 'Ben Hur' - where a long fuse of revenge burns for years and pays off with (no spoiler) the sweetest vengeance. Filmmakers and fans will leave with their heads spinning. I felt both inspired and envious! There was a point during a midway set piece where I leant over to a friend and said, "How the frick does he do this?”
>And, of course, the cast is amazing. Chris Hemsworth has never been better, Tom Burke is a brooding rugged presence recalling the original Road Warrior himself, and as for Anya, I’m so excited and proud to see her lighting up the screen.
>Way back in March 2020, literally 48 hours before the pandemic shutdown happened and the country shut down, I had dinner with George Miller in London after he watched an early cut of ‘Last Night In Soho’. He asked me if Anya would be a good choice to play young Furiosa, and I responded, ‘Do it, do it! She’s a star, get her now!’. I texted Anya that night to expect a call from George Miller, and I’m so thrilled to see the results four years later. What a ride, you will enjoy!
