To be fair, in that terrain turning to a side wouldn't have helped.

The film was from the late 70’s, she *founded* that school!

Oh come on, the cars would have just turned after her. In Prometheus, the wheel (or whatever the hell it was, been ages) was rolling only one way. Charlize Theron wasn't carrying a kid either.

Ding!

@@monmothma3358It was motorcycles that were chasing her, and they would have performed poorly in the sand alongside the road.

Without even a single mention of those damn drop bears? Come on...

@@marcromain64 Well, there is a total of about zero trees on the Mad Max movies; so where would they drop from?

That's always been my comedy head canon. The rest of the world is normal. This is just Australia.

😅🤣😂🤣😂🤣😆😆😆

@@jeanackle Do you think these sneaky beasts care?

Member!

That was the best part! That's gotta be how each Disney pitch meeting starts these days. 😂

I member!

I 'member too, the time when there were good movies. There are exceptions like Dune 2 but we had stuff like that several times a year instead of maybe every half decade

It’s so accurate it’s scary 😂

Mad Max is a undying wright who wanders the land, tortured by his memories of a world that's blown into the dust. He strives to bring justice to a world that's long gone Mad. Also his name might be Max, or maybe it's just about how hard he pushes the gas pedal.

@@sam4secretary I love the idea of Max acually being several dudes who got kinda mashed together in later retelling of events. And being included in stories he originally had no part of. Kind of a post-apocalypse King Arthur.

The first film was ahead of it's time by suggesting the world was suffering from environmental disaster. In the third reverted decades by suggesting it had suffered from nuclear war.

The first film was inspired by the oil crisis that had just happened in the 1970's.

@@writerpatrickOil was relatively abundant and cheap in the mid-80s, when Mad Max franchise achieved mainstream popularity. But the Cold War had actually intensified since the first entry in the trilogy had been produced.

I noticed a gyrocoptor or powered hang glider in the Furiosa trailer... secretly hoping Bruce Spence is flying it!

He used to live in my suburb in Sydney. Nice bloke apparently, and was lucky enough to look like he belonged in multiple fantasy franchises.

The train man! I knew I recognized him.

Amd played different roles in consecutive Max movies.

There are like a dozen Transformers movies; Bruce has gotta be in one of them somehow.

The first one is just such a great representation of what would happen in the beginning when society starts to break down. It's not an apocalyptic wasteland. Cops still exist, there's still people just living their lives, but gangs are forming and they are fighting for power. It's such a neat concept that is not really explored anywhere else. Sure the second one is what created the genre of post apocalyptic movies, but you have to give it to Miller for being such a visionary from the start.

@@vezokpiraka That's why I really like the first movie while I almost forgot what was third about

it's like Terminator 1&2, the first one is proof of concept. Second one is "ok we got it, here's all the money you need"! :D

​@@vezokpirakaIIRC, it was originally supposed to take place in ordinary present day, Miller just didn't have the money for a lot of props and stuff. So he basically made it futuristic and dystopic after the fact. Only for the second movie did they really commit to that idea, with that prologue explaining what happened, etc. I love the first one. Great villains and real emotional stakes.

Spikes weren’t even really a thing until the Italian and Filipino directors got involved.

amazing that the original Mad Max costs were around 400 k dollars and managed to earn like 100 million. No wonder they keep making them.

@@richardmh1987 400,000 dollary doos?!

@@sir_john_hammond I'm equally amused that your comment had a 'Translate to English' option, and that it correctly turned "400,000 dollary doos?!" into "$400,000?!"

Bust a deal. Face the wheel!

She turned left! That means she's safe right? Right? The gang can touch her anymore now that's she's on the grass right?

@@Edax_Royeaux Obviously yes. The screen rant analysis of that is, if she runs off screen, the villains can't find her! That is how science works.

Also Rickon Stark

Except that situations were different. Bikers could have turned with her or run after her - in any case they would have caught up with her and still killed them. In Prometheus they literally could have avoided the object by turning either side

@@yevgeniyaleshchenko849 The constant overanalysing of fictional psychology, actions, events and physics is the only problem with Prometheus. It's a half decade old movie and people watching these satires are still obsessed with it. To debunk your expectations on what people do in panic situations, try searching for videos with real people making terrible decisions in panic situations on here. Was it a smart move to run the way they did? No. Was it ever implied it was a smart decision? No. Lastly. It's a horror fiction. The main ingredient in those is, people thinking they're smarter than they are, getting killed in expected ways. The comment section dwellers on these satire channels wouldn't make it past the opening credits in a horror flick. 😋

"See you around, raggedy man"

I mean, its usually sturdy and very well made......

"...an epic film where we'll see less fetish gear than a pride day parade" would have been a great line lol

And don't forget, a proper Mad Max game in 2015 (there's also RAGE but no one likes to remember that, it's MEDIOCRE).

Yeah I hadn't seen it until recently and was baffled by the weird lost boys/peter pan-ness of it

That is a perfect description of Beyond Thunderdome. It's like they got bored with the movie they were making and just decided on filming something else instead

i was not ready for that 😂

That one is from brooklyn nine nine

Chef's exquisite kiss! Cherry on top

_HOBOCOP With A Crossbow_

I prefer suede

Just watched this movie, and just understood this line 😂😂😂❤

Another bad thing about that movie is they have the great Tina Turner but she's gone by the end of the first act and we don't see her again until there's like 15 minutes left. It becomes Mad Max meets the lost boys for a huge chunk of the movie.

Sorta glad they did. Without thunderdome, some of us would have never heard of mad Max.

It really is

I felt bad for Goose, he was a good dude.

It's perfect! Not sure if the joke registered with everyone 🪿

Good man, that Goose. Too bad he had a crispy conclusion.

I loved it anyway. So many fun ideas and characters.

“Memba-this?” “Memba-this?” “Memba-this?” 😅💀

@@SoggyDonuts79 I 'member

outoftheloop can someone please explain

@@cheatmagnet this is making fun of the trend of remaking tv/movies from the 80s and 90s. “Hey, remember the A-Team? Here’s a new one! Hey, remember Road House? Here’s a new one!”

Ah yes the member berries being served with a ViewMaster!

I mean we can. the question is whether you'll listen or care haha

@@iansteelmatheson No one will care.

I guess I'll start, with the 1958 Plymouth from "Christine". Not only does it harbor a murderous evil spirit that enjoys vehicular homicide, but it ALSO thinks like a jealous lover, gradually changes its owner's personality, can't be permanently stopped even by being compacted into a cube, AND just plain looks evil without any Hollywood modifications -- that's genuinely what the cars looked like when they were rolling out of Detroit by the hundreds.

@@stevenscott2136 One of the most is not the most.

Sure it's a nice car but what about Dodge M4S Interceptor from "The Wraith"?

Also yeah Mel has a temper but I’ve been surprised how people still support Alec Baldwin

They make their own gas from natural oil deposits. There's literally a place named "Gastown" in Fury Road.

@@stevenscott2136 Fury road doesn’t count

​@@charleshetrick3152 But there was a Gas Town mentioned earlier, wasn't there?

@@stevenscott2136 The villains in The Road Warrior are trying to take over a literal oil refinery.

the first film is essentially a documentary from Max's point of view. The second film is all told in retrospect from an old Feral Kid (Feral Leader?). The third film can be considered told in retrospect from the woman with the short black hair, who is (re)telling the story to her kid and the rest of her tribe. I also feel that the perspective affects the storytelling: since the Feral Kid lived a rough life, *The Road Warrior* reflects that with it's more brutal "Cowboys and Indians" approach. Since the third film is being told by a mother to children, it fits that it has a softer, more Spielbergian look and feel.

That's a really neat perspective! 👍

I'd rather follow the north star.

I thought it was “All we want is life BeyooooooOoond….Thunderdome🎶”?

But don't forget that in order for the quip to work, the Thunderdome mentioned has to be a non-specific Thunderdome; it can't be THE Thunderdome!

Yet you also say you don't want to know the way home...

Agreed that was truly inspired.

@@SAMcGarvey1. Oh I see, you said “beat” not “best” Mel Gibson rant.

Oh yeah!!!

Right!

No!

George was completely ignorant of Akira Kurosawa and his works until after Mad Max when that parallel was noticed by his Japanese audience.

It is more likely to be inspired by some of Roger Zelazny's stories, particularly Damnation Alley.

So, High Plains Drifter.

A lot of people use an additive or special fuel mix for lawn equipment for just this reason ... it isn't most gas, and nowhere near enough of it for what goes on in the movies.
