>villain loses final battle
>survives
>parts ways with hero amicably
>gives inspirational speech to other villains
>they leave and it's heavily implied everything works out fine for them
This actually feels like the weirdest ending an action movie ever had
It breaks so many storytelling rules

I thought the whole point was that Aunty isn't that bad a person, especially by the standards of the setting.
Cept for the 1st film, most of the villains in mad max are "reasonable". Lord Humungous, or whatever the frick his name was, was going to let the rabble leave safely.
Immortan Joe was 100% correct in what he was trying to do to build civilization back up. Under Furiosa and the other women the water will not last a month and all the warboy will die sooner rather than later without a supply of captive bloodbags meaning the citadel would have no protection from whatever other roving band of buttholes there are out there.
Auntie, in a smaller way, was doing the same thing in bartertown.
The world ended; you can't be nice to everyone.
>Under Furiosa and the other women the water will not last a month
Sauce?
Reality.
See what happens in modern day as women spend money we no longer have.
>I made it up
Oh
>Troon thinks reality is made up.
Checks out.
You need a woman like Aunty: roothless. Furiosa is, underneath that burned and roughed exterior, soft. She wouldn't have even bothered to have tried to save the wives otherwise.
Aunty Entity was far more realistic.

>*ruthless.
Anyway the only real villain in Mad Max is Toebiter. Everyone else is making the best of a shitty situation to further their own goals in the most economic way possible. Toebiter was just a thuggish c**t.
Toecutter you fricking moron
Didn’t you see at the end where they just open the floodgates instead of trying to ration the water? How much water could possibly be stored on top of that mesa?
Yeah, IRL aquifers only have a few gallons of water.
They didn't release just a few gallons of water and aquifers are far from unlimited. Being disingenuous doesn't get anyone on your side so I have no idea why people like you continue to do it especially in such obvious fashion.
I agree, IRL aquifers only last a few weeks.
Depends on the aquifer. They're quite variable in both quantity and ease of accessing the water. Aquifers in general are just water in the cracks between rocks. They're not huge underground oceans with a roof. Best thing to do is have a large cistern to buffer peaks of water usage from whatever flow rate can be extracted from the aquifer. If average usage exceeds the flow rate from the aquifer, eventually that buffer will run out. It's important for the cistern to be able to handle annual peaks in usage and also for overall average demand to never grow beyond the average flow from the aquifer.
Without a cistern buffer, anytime the usage exceeds the flow rate, there will be periods of no water. It's important to wisely manage both the buffer and average demand.
>Depends on the aquifer. They're quite variable in both quantity and ease of accessing the water.
Anon said it would run out in a month, so you're wrong.
A month is an underestimate, but it's going to be months at worst, years at best depending on the size of the aquifer.
The entire Great Artesian Basin contains 65 petaliters of water, but only a tiny fraction of that (maybe 1% of 1% of 1%) is actually accessible from any single point of access. You're talking about *maybe* 65 GL if it's a truly, truly massive access point. But if you're releasing that water at, say, a kL/s, that's going to last two years tops.
If the aquifer is significantly smaller (which is likely), that gets shortened to months.
Sauce on furiosa never shutting off the water again? I couldn't see the controls after the movie ended.
Watch the film:
The citadel and that little pocket of civilization in the wasteland of the future world only existed because some utter c**t kept everything together with an iron fist, or at least the illusion of an iron fist as he was fat old and dying too.
He was a "villain" with vision.
In the very first lines of the film he warns about what happens
>don't get addicted to water etc., etc. you'll become weak when it's gone
Only a brainlet would watch fury road and think that it's some kind of feminist fantasy.
At the end Max leaves because he can see how it's all going to end up.
>was going to let the rabble leave safely
krk what a moron
>Lord Humungous
He was too based to let them go safely. Also letting go "safely" when they take all your shit is also a death sentence in that setting.
Killing people takes energy and wastes valuable ammo. Sending them out to the desert without resources so they'll die off with minimal effort on your part is a good plan if you can get the other side to go for it.
>Humongous was going to let the rabble leave safely
are you tarded? anon you wouldn't last a day in the wasteland
it's quite anti-feminist actually. the many mothers failed matriarchy is exhibited and followed up by their destruction of something functional.
This. She's very much one of those - you missed the point by villainizing her - characters.
Auntie was stuck in the past and was trying to recreate the world, instead creating a twisted mockery of it. It's implied that the characters have to move on from the old world if they are to have any future.
She wasn't evil, but her methods were doomed to failure.
This. She was just being pragmatic. To maintain order she had to sometimes resort to unethical methods otherwise someone worse (e.g. MasterBlaster) would be in charge. If she was running things at least she could be lenient occasionally.
We don't need another hero
mad max was such a good idea and cool concept, shame the idea, the potential, and the creativity is dead and we get the moronic sequels of a kuked out creator
>franchise called mad max
>he get a little mad in the first one
>pretty laid back for the rest of the franchise
And by the end Max is the only one who doesn’t get what he wants. He just wanted his goddamn cart and camels back.
