I like the fan theory that these films are all stories that were passed down through the generations as humanity dragged it's self back up to some kind of civilization, and Mad Max is actually a composite of a bunch of different wandering loners who helped out at the right time. He's a folk hero basically. It explains why there's no continuity between the movies, because each story is about different people, but told and retold until the details blur.
@Liveimprov
@Liveimprov 4 жыл бұрын
Well it IS a story. Maybe Mad Max is one of these "stories that is passed down through the generations", yet during your lifetime. Mad Max is similar to other lone survivor sometimes-helpful types in westerns and other art. Where a mission is done alone by traumatized and fragile erroneous kind-of-self-sufficient figure, who is consciously trying to not negatively impact friendly folks who are struggling to survive too. They help if they can survive doing so, and are burdened with injuries from life trauma. They can't be the hero they want to be and need to be, because they're simply human. They're trying make it through the middle of someone else's war(s), hoping life is on the other side.

Of course Immortan Joe was a more developed character than Humongous, but there is something to be said for Humongous. When Wez goes berserk and tries busting into the compound, Humongous holds him back and say "I know how you feel. I understand your pain. But we're doing this my way." That thought isn't followed up, but Humongous has had some losses. Also, when he takes out his magnum, he removes it from a box that has a black and white photo of a military family in it, so Humongous may have some history there. Finally, there's the pulsing vein on his head. God knows what that's about.

Humongous is a multi dimensional character, much more than just a raiding marauder most make him out to be. The liberal use of bullets shows he can be calculating and even diplomatic, using force only when absolutely necessary, also represented later when he chains his lieutenant to his personal vehicle as a literal dog of war only releasing him when he has no other choice. Possibly showing he was very willing to allow them to "just walk away" instead of the alternative of resource using conflict. He's also highly educated, or at least very well read, with reciting 18th century German poetry later on in the film. These all aren't obvious, but the details are there on how such people would fit into a world lacking any real society.

Here's my theory on why Max leaves in the early morning so foolishly. You have to have watched the first movie, which has a huge boring middle. The woman with the bow, reminding him of his loss of his wife, the feral kid, reminding him of his lost son, and Papagalo reminds him of his partner Goose, and psychologically he cannot take anymore. Just a theory.

The best thing about Road Warrior is the unceremonious way characters can die in it. A character who played a relatively major role can just randomly get shot with arrows. No build up or "boss" fight. Just boom, dead. So much better since it is not only realistic but creates more tension, you don't see death coming from a mile away like you do in other movies (including Fury Road, as much as I like it).

I have to confess, that was one thing about Fury Road that I really disliked - there were a few scenes where it was heavily foreshadowed that someone was going to die (a good example was the bit where Angharad fell off the truck). It took all the tension that had been building during those great actions scenes and killed it off in a flash.

He wasnt betrayed, he was merely kept in the dark. Keep in mind that the planmaker Papagallo followed alongside Max as a convoy. The mechanic was atop the tanker with molotovs, the sexy warrior woman was atop armed with crossbow, another warrior was sitting in the bucket welded to the tankers tail. They didnt send Max off on a suicide mission, they accompanied him!!! Now the question becomes this...was Papagallo the only one who knew? Im guessing the mechanic knew because he would have emptied the tanker and helped find other storage tanks. Also the people driving the bus and vans would know because they made it a point to uncover the blanket covering the small tanks inside the van. Maybe the only ones who knew the full plan were people who absolutely needed to know? The warrior woman and warrior in the bucket may have been in the dark as much as Max? If they survived the onslaught Im sure Max would have been told the truth and compensated. Because all those who were convoy to Max understood the danger but same time I dont think they were straight up sacrificing themselves (even though they considered it possible they wouldnt make it).

Among us we found a new leader: the man who came from the sky, the Gyro Captain. And just as Pappagallo had planned, we travelled far beyond the reach of men on machines. The juice, the precious juice was hidden in the vehicles. [fade to shot of the Feral Kid] As for me, I grew to manhood and in the fullness of time I became the leader, the Chief of the Great Northern Tribe. And the Road Warrior?

Nice review, but I do have a couple of comments. I'm an old bugger who saw these movies in the order of their release here in Australia and my favorite by a very big margin is Mad Max. I get what you're saying that every single frame in Fury Road is beautiful but there's a purity of story about Mad Max that's difficult to explain. Perhaps the authenticity comes from the fact that George Miller was a trauma doctor in a local emergency ward and had the idea for Mad Mad as he dealt with numerous road traffic accident victims. I've always liked that It's a movie about a man's decent into madness like its contemporary film, Apocalypse Now. My understanding is that when Mad Max was eventually released in the US it was dubbed with American accents and even if you saw it with the original Australian accents perhaps some of the expressions weren't known to you as it was never made with an American audience in mind. Mad Mad 2 on the other hand was clearly made for an international audience as it used words like "Gasoline" which is almost never used here; we call it Petrol. Finally, you may or may not know that Mad Max held the record for the highest ratio of 'income generated' vs. 'cost to produce' until the Blair Witch project beat it. A useless factoid, but interesting none the less Anyway, so long as the paperwork's clean, you boys can do what you like out there.....

I remember when Mad Max came out. I only knew about it because I was home sick from school in 3rd grade, and it was the one day both my parents were gone. I was watching channel 2, and every commercial break had an ad for that movie. I never saw it because a. our town (and it's sole one-screen theater) was too small for what was then considered a "niche" movie and b. my parents wouldn't allow me to see R-rated movies. A couple years later, "The Road Warrior" came out. Got to see it on HBO eventually with my friends. In 1985, the original Mad Max came to TV (American dubbed version), so I finally got to see that. Saw "Thunderdome" with my Dad in the theater. Didn't know Road Warrior had a different title or see the original Aussie accent Mad Max until 2007 in Indonesia. Road Warrior is still my favorite one. I feel a bit weird that I seem to be the only one that doesn't like "Fury Road" better. I like it as a movie, but I have to pretend that it's not a Mad Max movie to enjoy it at all. For me, it just doesn't fit well into the franchise.

Ya. The first film has a civilization going through a lot of problems, which happens to be in australia. In 2 3 and 4, the australian desert shooting locations (deserted areas) can tell a story that includes the health of an environment. This translates in fantasy and fiction genres, the desert as an environment can have a lot packed in. So the sequels seem to utilize that more than 1.

So weird to here people say the Mad Max series doesn't care about continuity when it has the best kept continuity in any trilogy I've ever seen. Injuries effect him unlike other heroes in movies so much so that when he gets fucked up it stays with him, like his limp at the end of the first movie. Same clothes throughout, drives the same car in the second, and they point out his character arc which we get to see in great detail explaining why he's so fucking miserable in Road Warrior. Just saying, seems odd.

Agreed. People get confused because MM has cops and grass and ice cream, RW is set after the non-nuclear apocalypse and BTD after a nuclear one. MM is "a few years into the future" seventies low-budget violent action flick, post-apoc was never considered. Max rides aimlessly into the night, fade to black. RW is post-apoc because George Miller thought it would be an interesting setting, more than seeing Max just driving through rural Australia on the roads he patrolled just weeks ago. By the time BTD was being considered, the idea of a post-apoc world was different than before. We now have fallout and evaporated oceans.. (where has the water gone?) So in my view the "Inconsistency theory" arose from the facts that the nature of the WW3 is different in RW and BTD, and the fact that people just repeat other's words instead of watching the films and paying attention. And Bruce Spence appearing in BTD in another role.

I cant count how many reviews I have seen where they say such and such was never explained and I clearly remember it being addressed. Maybe they just dont pay enough attention when they watch movies?

Then she is shot and slumps over dead and hangs off the truck. Her corpse just hangs there forever.

Well, there is a steady supply of fuel in the movies - the refinery in Road Warrior, Gastown in Fury Road, and the piggies to make methane in Thunderdome. It's not really that unrealistic, anyway. Gasoline is actually really easy to make, you just boil crude oil into a vapor, and then the vapor settles into liquid gasoline. There's actually videos you could find of impoverished Syrians making it this way using basic materials. The only reason modern civilization requires massive refineries and an elaborate logistics chain is because we're making gas for millions of cars and trucks, whereas in the world of Mad Max, you'd only be making enough gas for a few dozen vehicles at most.

Fury Road is amazing, but Mad Max 2 is by far the better movie imo, everything is absolutely perfect in It! And the atmosphere in Mad Max 2 is absolutely perfect, it sucks me in every single time i watch it, which is something that is missing from Fury Road imo...but Fury Road is still second best in the Mad Max movies

@@Pauly421 Yes.. I've seen Fury Road a few times. I've tried to like it.. I wanted to like it.. But.. I think it's Awful in terms of script/dialogue. The action sequences are tremendous but the story is Awful. Not to mention the worst thing they did was put a big mask on Hugh Keays Byrne.. I thought that was a travesty. When I saw it at the cinema.. I thought it was amazing.. Then I saw it a second time at home and paid much more attention to it and realized.. Ohh There's problems here and third viewing onward realized how terrible the script story was.

Fury Road is not "amazing" Far from it. It's not perfect at all. The atmosphere in Mad Max 2 is not perfect.. But there is atmosphere.. Most definitely. It's far from being perfect though. I've seen Mad Max 2 about 45 times over the years.. The last watch was about 2 weeks ago on blu ray. Everytime I see it now I think.. This will be the last time I watch it. As now for the most part it just brings me a sadness..Although.. Although.. I'm still entertained by it.. But now it's more a study of observance.. As I've seen it so many times. I am now able to look for things I've never seen in it before. I see the faults.. And by that I mean.. Mistakes in it.. Little things.. They don't bother me as such.. They are curious to me. I see all the things in it.. Moments where it's like.. Oh.. That's rough.. That's out of joint. It's almost frustrating in a sense this movie as I almost want more from every scene. What other takes were there. Though happy to analyze each scene.. Which I can't help but do that when I see it. There is a sadness that goes with it.. A Melancholy.. Certain lines that could have been said differently. A terrific movie still. Far from perfect. Ohhhh Forgot to mention.. I've been to Silverton.. I went out there a few years back. Found the locations.. But not all the locations as my sense of direction and finding things can be Off at the best of times.. And the majority of locations are difficult to find and I did not find them.. But at least I saw the area/the location. It's somewhat foreboding out there.. Stark. Though it's interesting to see the location. I stood on the spot where Mel Gibson gets out of the interceptor next to the tanker in the first scene.

If a guy wants to meet up for diner after a day of work and a game of footy that’s fine but that’s all it’s gonna be. Smart guys keep clean. Still, could all be solved with a little cut in infancy 🤷🏻‍♂️ my real point was that the mad max world is smegma-heavy. Uncut guys, very little water, heat, desert....smegma.

It is a ton of fun to watch to this very day. I love "Road Warrior," and I always have since I was a kid. If Miller wants to make another movie, I will be the first one in line to go watch it.

Fury Road kind of operates in a weird quantum state where it's both a reboot and a sequel to Thunderdome. It was originally meant to be shot in 2003 as a direct sequel starring Mel Gibson. But then production kept getting delayed until Gibson was no longer either age appropriate or any kind of appropriate for the role. And so rather then recasting for an older grizzled max they decided to go the reboot route...except the script still only really makes sense for a 50+ year old Max (I.e. we're told that Max was a cop before the collapse, but the only other people we meet who are old enough to remember the before time are the old women from Furiosa's tribe).
