It's very far from great. The writing and plot is paper thin, the character decisions are crazy (and folks have the lunacy to complain about Prometheus & Covenant). The hypocrisy of the audience is laughable, and it's a great shame that original writing and story telling is stifled by such. Prometheus and Covenant were far greater movies, both technically and professionally, as well as original and thought provoking.

The drinker disagrees 👎🏻

A very disappointing movie. Bad script. Horribly written characters with absolutely no redeeming points. Not enough Alien too much of the Face Huggers. Too many nods and elements from the other movies. The end was a cluster f that made no logical sense. And... WHY does (almost) every Alien movie have to end with a gun toting female wearing a tank top? Seriously. New ideas hurt too much? Only decent points to the movie was that it looked good. Direction, sets and the practical effects were done well.

A lot of this is actually wrong. They went to Namibia because they couldn't shoot in Australia because of weather. They did shoot Furiosa movie in Australian desert. How can you say that Fury Road used a lot of digital compositing and Furiosa used a lot of greenscreen when its the same tools being used ? Funnily, now the BTS videos are coming up, one can tell Furiosa actually is actually very practical... The biggest difference between Fury Road and Furiosa is the lighting and the post processing. But just fyi, they did shoot the Stowaway sequence for real using cranes for flying attackers. They did flip the car on the truck. They did explode the glider over the truck. They did set a Dementus goon on fire during the Trojan Truck scene. They did flip Furiosa car. They did create Furiosa hand on the chain. The six wheels car is real. The suspended truck scene is real (it was 90° inclined and the actress did slide on it). One other thing that could explain why CGI looks sometimes bad in Furiosa is what the movie shows. In Fury Road you have 20 cars getting in the middle of the desert for the whole movie. Furiosa features already more bikes than Fury Road cars... and more locations, with more people. And nobody realised AI on the kid or the Bullet Farmer being complete CGI.

I'm entirely convinced that people can't tell the difference between real and CGI in this comment thread. People are using examples of practical stuff for how CGI looks fake.

You don't know what you are talking about

Staunchly disagree !! Furiosa had most creative embodiment of both digital and practical effects .

Nice video, but I think another major factor is the bad animations and the lack of proper physics that really adds to the fakeness of it all!

If you look at all the behind the scenes photos you’ll see they got stuck with heavy cloud cover throughout a big portion of the shoot and had to resort to artificial lighting outside. Then when you add a new CG sky and background in the actors don’t quite match it because they weren’t lit with sunlight to begin with. I think it was mostly just unfortunate circumstance.

A HUGE factor is the change of cinematographer - surprised you didn't mention that

They’re two very different types of movies for sure. Furiosa has a mythic fable-esque quality to it that I think lends itself to a more stylistic style of CGI and editing. I think it’s nice contrast to the more structurally straightforward and grounded Fury Road.

Watch it in Black and Chrome. Fixes it mostly.

Just subscribed. Looking forward to future videos.

The problem is not CGI. The problem is color grading. The colorists in that movie seems to have 0 idea on how to color match the CGI and the environment. Which is what ACTUALLY contribute to fakeness or obvious CGI. If the colorists are actually competent, then this problem wouldn't happened. Just so people can understand, color grading/matching CGI is actually way easier than real subjects filmed by camera. This is because camera has different codecs to work with and different color science. CGI however, is usually coded in 16 bit EXR with ACE color space to ensure uniformities. 16 bit EXR is significantly easier to grade than something like 10 bit log file or 12 bit ProRes RAW. Plus ACE color space was developed exactly for ease of color grading/matching. So yeah, the fault is on the colorists.

Australia isn't as baron as people think. So to make it look more in line with fury road they replaced the background with more dead looking desert. Australia is dry sure but there's heaps of desert plants growing anyway. Doesn't help that we've also had a lot of rain in the last couple years.

Then stop , if they dont want to do practical car crashes anymore then they dont want to make mad max anymore , its like basketball without a ball or apple pie with no apple... THERES NO FUCKING POINT

They changed The DP

idk, I think it's mostly just very stylized. yeah, there was some dodgy CGI in Furiosa... but there was also dodgy CGI in Fury Road. Go watch the beginning again when Max is trying to escape the Citadel. That was as bad or worse than the worst CGI in Furiosa. I think people nitpick too much. Was the CGI perfect? No, obviously not, but it seems like y'all want to talk about every aspect of a movie EXCEPT for most important part which is "did you have a good experience in the theater?" because thats all that matters. Were you moved or inspired or in awe of what you experienced? Were you excited or scared or sad or surprised or on the edge of your seat? Thats the magic of film. Not "as you can see the composited a rock in the bottom left frame of that scene. thats bad storytelling."

I just saw it 2 days ago and i thought the visual effects really stood out. It was a pretty good movie, but its no Fury Road.

fury road is great but furiosa is not so good

It doesn't look fake. And the movie is great :)

Dune 2 is very worst movie. Furiosa fulfilled our satisfaction

It's not about expectations, it's about really bad CGI, especially the charscters in the background.

Best Picture, Best Comedy, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor.

And damned it be

They use LED screen instead of green screen just like star wars mandalorian use it that is why it looks so digital

beaing anchor being have quite explaining theory. it is wolverine because he changed timeline and rebuilded xmen universe. so he is very important for that timeline. there is many explanations for holes

yes it is ppl acted like dune 2 was a masterpiece when compare such as wolverine and paul wolverine have better scenes quotes developing and acting. this is a only little example dp2 is really awesome

the bike riders are all so badly made it hurts my eyes

Mad Max didn't revolutionise anything. They just cut away all the bullcrap and made the movie like they used to make movies in the past.

Not sure you know what “Break-even” means

Should have made this video a week ago it clearly didn’t pointless

HOLY MOTHER OF COPE

no

No

no

Spoiler: … 90% does not look fake

Dang

Over saturated and over done. Godzilla minus one proved you can make entire world cgi and still make it look grounded and realistic. They just didn’t do that. They went with stylized. It was a choice not a bug.

The video I was looking for

2:09 George Miller always wanted to shoot Mad Max: Fury Road and Furiosa in Australia, particularly Broken Hill, as a means of creating local industry within the country. At the time of shooting however, the ordinarily dry outback setting got more rain than it had in decades, and the whole town blossomed with flowers and greenery, ergo the move to shooting in Namibia as after months of waiting the shooting location never dried up again. When it turned out Furiosa was going to be shot in Australia, the state government granted the production approximately 150 million dollars, which is the greatest amount ever given to a film production by the government of New South Wales. I have personally met people within filmmaking circles who have acted as safety coordinators / stuntmen within the production as it was shot in Broken Hill and in studio at Sydney

I dont agree with this title ..

It is incredible how such a bullshit video managed to gain 33K views

Thank you for your insights. For me it was one of the two flaws in the film. I remember the hunting scene before Praetorian Jack was tortured to death, there were a lot of scenes that looked very VFX, and I don't know why. It was very disturbing at the moment.

They do not look fake in my eyes, they are highly stylized.

They originally planned to film Fury Road in Australia, but due to unsuitable weather at the time, they were forced to shoot it in Namibia.

Yeah. I took one look at the tailer at the cinema and I was like, ''No, not for me''. Looked garbage .

I agree with you, also they made a lot of full cg environment shots of citadel and gas Town and ...which were so obvious and the other thing is over the top set pieces that only were possible with CG. The first movie knew where to use cgi like the scene where they drive through the storm has bunch of full cg shots but because of storm effects it doesn't stick out.

looks pretty good, including the CG. far worse looking big budget films out there.

Great video
