So are you and Slomo fucking? You cried to him about a girl snorting my balls and he deleted a legit thread...is your home sex life that horrible bro? You need to be worried about your own dam kids...and the shit she bout to get into ;-)

[HI-FI]

been waiting for this one for awhile. I still have love for Beyond Thunderdome, just too bad George Miller was too distraught to really direct it when friend and co-producer Byron Kennedy died in pre-production. Apparently Miller still directed the action sequences, which were great, but that was mainly it.

So it's great to see Miller fully invested and back in the saddle, just sucks Mel Gibson isn't apart of it.

[benefactor]

Yeah...I wish Mel was there in some capacity too...but Hardy is a perfect fit.

[CubanSucks]

Hardy's an awesome fit but what the motherfuck is charlize theron's purpose? Rhetorical question, to draw in some females, just a shame as it's such a safe little fill in that'll most definitely only hold the plot back

btw, Road Warrior was the only good one

Great fucking ad. Bonus points on Tom Hardy (that could've been a bust with many other choices) but big fucking minus on Charlize Theron. I'm so damn sick of seeing her. And unfortunately I can already see this trying to split the heroes 50/50 male and female just to appeal to more. It's going to suck if there's too much focus on those hotties

[Pauly D]

I guess it's not too bad since she's shaving her head for a little more nitty and gritty. Also, Tom Hardy better continue the attitude that Gibson had, that don't give a fuck cold as ice attitude. Apparently this is gonna be set between the first two

I thought it was "Furry Road" and was a rated X flick where Max is mad because some rogue biker gang pins him down and takes turns running up his dirty, furry turd factory.

But so utterly ridiculous upon even a cursory examination. It was on the cable here the other day and of course I jockeyed right on in.

And the irony is palpable. The (killing) is spot on, but, the (living) is just embarrassing. So damn cockeyed.

The killing is accurate for the crisis that has taken root in this society. Wholesale rape & murder, torture, sudden death, rampant vengeance, but, the every day life doesn't match the set up. There is no gasoline save the compound but, yet the bad guys boogie on down there en masse (every fucking vehicle running makes the daily trip), revving their engines and carrying on till all hours. The women in the compound are all running around in exact braids and techno hair styles and cuts with great makeup and trendy battle gear.

i was lurking earlier and watched ace3g's posting. just been caught up in other bs.

looks wild. i love the look of it, but the clip is definitely an overload of insane images so I'm not sure how it all fits, guess we'll just have to wait it out. it looks to have more of a fever dream feel than the first 3, but with all the digital tools available, I'm sure Miller wanted to take everything into a new direction.

kind of bummed out to see the V8 Interceptor getting trashed early on. If that's true, I don't see this as much of a prequel before Road Warrior as a re-imagining. :lol Fucking Miller, he has one of the greatest cars in cinematic history yet it's gotten fucked ever since the original movie.

"Official trailer." As opposed to the three full length trailers that have already come out.

Tbh my enthusiasm just took a step back. I'm now scared the plot will be half about Max, half about empowered women breaking free of the patriarchy. I'm really hoping that theme was drilled into this trailer to attract a few women viewers who otherwise have probably already blown this movie off

For about 3 years now, for movies I'm excited to see, I only watch the first teaser a couple times and that's it. No more trailers or commercials. As the movies get closer to being released, they start showing more and more and giving plot stuff away.

It's so refreshing to go into a movie with a mostly blank slate.

the bad guy in this is the same actor as the ToeCutter from part 1. but it's essentially a re-working of the universe. Miller is a bit out there, like having Bruce Spence play two different characters in part 2 and 3.

damn the hype has got me too stoked. I'm gonna try to catch this tomorrow at midnight but may not have time. if not will catch it with my brother or friends during the weekend.

this easily been my most anticipated film in a long time. next is Tarantino's Hateful Eight. somewhere down the list is Star Wars: The FanFiction Awakens.

Why You Should Not Go See “Mad Max: Feminist Road”http://www.returnofkings.com/63036/why-you-should-not-go-see-mad-max-feminist-road

[redzero]

^ Did you actually watch the movie, you mouth-breather? If you walked away from the movie with some radical feminist message, you clearly have other hang-ups that can't be blamed on the film.

The he only real difference between Fury Road and The Road Warrior is that Max shares his badass action scenes with a female lead. With all the crazy shit that happens in this movie (I'm talking about you, guitar guy), how can a female action hero be the deal breaker?

What was most impressive was the lack of dialogue. You'd think a movie where Mad Max only has like 10 total lines and spends the whole first half of the movie strapped to the front of a vehicle would suck. It got by almost completely on creativity and non-verbals and still kicked ass. Just incredible film making.

[redzero]

I loved the fact that Max getting that fucking mask off became a subplot in and of itself. I was pumped when he finally got it off. It sounds ridiculous in retrospect, but Miller made it work.

[blizz]

Saw it yesterday as well. Fantastic movie. Charlize is still absolutely gorgeous. When she had the black paint on her face she looked so hot. I liked that after all these years, it was sooooo mad max. Glad Miller kept it that way.

[NASpurs]

That was fucking amazing. Holy crap, you just come out with such a "wtf did I just watch" feeling but in a good way. The fucking adrenaline is pumped to 10 all the way through with very few lulls in the action. Just fucking insane. Loved it!

Finally saw it. The 3d was very good, better than most and it was all post conversion.


gotta give Hardy props. I still prefer Mel in the role but Hardy was very good. He's now had the unenviable task of replacing two iconic performances and doing better than most would.

visually its stunning, maybe some of the best world building or visual storytelling I've seen in awhile, but Miller has always been natural at that. I do miss the raw or rugged look of the originals that were shot on film. This feels more like a graphic novel or fever dream version of that world, though that might've been the 3d. Either way it's still very memorable.

definetly worth the wait and will catch it again in theaters.

[Thread]

I saw it this morning in 3-D. Thought it a fine film. Miller sent out the cast with instruction to pull it back, let it be, and they uniformly followed instruction. Homage was paid to "Road Warrior" occasionally, but, unobtrusively, strictly so. The women in RW wore immaculate white, mirrored here as well. In RW the women are presented in rapture, but under suspicion. Here, the same. In both instances by the end we're in love with them, or, at least in lust. A music box is produced (looks exactly like the original) and nary a character asks nary a question about it. At the end of RW Gibson's eye is closed. Here Theron's eye pays tribute. Miller trusted his base to recognize his gift and we have.

True on both points. That's why the producers do the PG-13 shit. Miller stood tall here though there is a keen absence of visual bullet impact & death shots in this film. In PG-13 your mind recognizes this in the theatre. Here? On the drive home.

And for the R rating we get one gd (ass) shot of that woman on the watch tower. And it ain't the same woman on the ground as is showing her ass on that watch tower. No way. That was a cheat by Miller, a bitter one.

And thru all the intense action, tossing and turning, uping & downing and not once did we get a shot of the goods of those young girls. Not one fucking time. That long legged blonde about has driven me nuts in the two hours in the theatre and the 36 since. GD.

Like I said, she's a great character but the only reason you're saying that is cause she's a female. And tbh I don't think that'd even make a good movie.

Regardless of quality, I wouldn't be surprised, at all, if they actually do make it, tbh..they could do a prequel to her getting taken from her family or whatever, followed by her rise into a top soldier for Joe..wouldn't be surprising if it succeeds in the current climate of feminism and White Knights, tbh..

White knights wouldn't want to waste their money just for the possibility of more white knight cred and women naturally don't care about action type shit, regardless of all this "Feminist Max" shit going around. It would flop

I've never even noticed anything like that. What do you mean?

Saw this on Friday - it's the kind of movie that almost feels like you need a seat belt. Even the wife enjoyed it :tu :tu

I've never even noticed anything like that. What do you mean?

To simplify this early, I look at the ratings as more than ratings. I see it as analytically and in correlation with human understanding.

Well before a movie is released, the people who endorsed the movie actually review it and rate. Those rating are always high(for the money). The reviews are in the tens of thousands beforehand. IMDB Pro users can only rate the movie before hand and people who actually played a major part in the production of the movie.

However, after a movie is released then the ratings usually take a huge fall to the average viewers who watch in the theater and other forms of media to. This then exposes the movie as a bomb. For Mad Max, this really didn't happen and the ratings have held up and exceeded its realistic expectations for me.

In my perspective, when a movie on the IMDB scale holds a IMDb rating above 8.0 with more than 150k user ratings translates to an superb masterpiece of a movie for me. These movies are bring on innovations and new stories to the industry. I also factor in the ratio of Revies(comments) to ratings to determine if the movie is worth my time.

From what I've seen, a movie that rates on the scale of 6.3 to 7.4 are average movies with general cliches. Some movies are absolutely rated too low. Some viewers lack education or won't educate themselves enough to understand the movie. Symbolism is concept new to many viewers and also empathy(placing yourself in position of the people in the movie). Other films are wrongly critiqued because of time period and relation to what was happening during those times. Foreshadowing is an elementary concept that spics aren't aware of.

There's many viewers who are horrible with hindsight. For instance, a certain character makes a decision that you know is wrong because you watched the movie and saw it play out to the characters dismay. Then you give the movie a awful rating on the count of this. Its important to understand....the motherfucking character didn't see how this was going to play out because the character isn't watching or hasn't watched the end of the movie. The character is playing their role in a certain moment of time no matter how many times a viewer watches the movie within different times in their lives. Interpretation.


Then there's movies who people absolutely didn't understand. Interstellar, The Prestige, Donnie Darko, Gone Girl; innovative and ground breaking movies which are rated with 8.0 plus ratings but still..don't do them enough justice.

Horror movies always seem to bomb. They just do not do consistently well so I have to adjust for them. That's because people "TRY" not to be afraid of them the expectation is always there. Something will freak you out. Horror movies are meant to be seen alone without a phone, closing of the eyes, and guessing the nerves. People make horror movies awful by watching it with people, not paying attention to the movie while high on weed. They just will not do well because this will

8.6 rating equivalent to Interstellar which is a movie I respect. Tom Hardy passes to me as a very respectful actor having been in the Dark Knight Rises and Inception. He even was in Black Hawk Down.............Really really young in that movie. Had a kid's voice.

Pretty good.
Great camera work.
Plot line pretty good. Some meandering on side plots and characters here and there, but mostly stuck to the plot at hand.
Casting was pretty good. Teen chicks i guess they went for the fairly hot but not super hot look.

Disappointed we did not get to see ToeCutter being killed. Instead we just get teen chick announcing he is dead. What's up with that?
Ditto Fat Blob warlord. Max sticks his fat foot on the gas but then we just get to see the car crash. I wanted to see fat blob splattered.

Feminist Road angle. The writer of that article is butthurt over something. No way did Threzon and the teen chicks and old moms de nutt Max. As to Max letting Furia take the last shot, takes a real man to let that happen. No way was that caving in. She was a better shot and he had just missed twice. One bullet left. Smart move.

Question:
Pasty White good guy and red headed teen. What was the basis for their love connection?

[Fabbs]

Psssh.
So two of the U.S. teen chicks cast due to being offspring of music celebs.
Toast the Knowing = Zoe Kravitz

The two blonde twigs are Victoria Secret/Vogue anorexics.

The brown haired gal (and only true teen, the rest are all like 25) is Aussie.

Saw it again, this time in 2d. I preferred this version over the 3d version, which was very good but in 2d the world felt more cohesive and believable. So far Fury Road is my second favorite in the series and easily my favorite film of the year.


Soundtrack was pretty good. It's up there with the film in your sig and Tron Legacy, which is probably my favorite recent score.
3D is pointless unless its an animated film imo

[spurraider21]

but :lol that scene where none of the daughters knew how to reload a gun except the black one

[Fabbs]

Anyone remember this chick from the movie?

Bump. Excellent movie. Excellent Score as well.
