    My dad has been a heavy equipment mechanic for almost 50 years. The guy can literally machine and fabricate a working auto out of thin air. As we were watching this, he turned to me and said "That War Rig is a Czech Tatra. That's *the* baddest ass truck you'll ever find. If you want a truck to get you through the apocalypse, that's the one." Then he nodded in a satisfied way that made me respect this movie even more.

    17:50 There is a quite moving history behind the polecats:
    They were in the initial script of the movie.. but after seeing the actual cars and polecats George Miller (who is a surgeon) decided the risk was way too much for the stunts and he began to think how to do it in chrome or CGI .. when the stunt guys found out they took out several cars modified for the polecats in secret, did several runs safely swinging in then filmed it and presented it the next day to Miller as a "present" that they were willing to do his polecat vision for real and were quite sure of it...

    It's the same character. George Miller explained it like this... Every film in the series is essentially a tale created by the different people who Max had encounters with. As the stories are passed down through the generations, details start to get changed, thus creating the continuity errors between films. Miller did confirm that in Max's timeline, this story takes place a few years after the events of Beyond Thunderdome.

    • @darthmuppet
      @darthmuppet Před 4 lety +27

      Jack J Miller explained Max having his V8 Interceptor in Fury Road, but not in Thunderdome as being one of the many, many continuity errors that come as a result of Max’s stories being passed down as oral history. Over time, elements of the story get embellished, added, or subtracted. Max’s stories are literally wasteland legends passed down from elders to younger generations. All the stories are about the same man, but there is no solid continuity between any of the films. When pressed on the timeline, Miller clarified that the events that inspired the story being told in Fury Road chronologically took place after the events that inspired Thunderdome.
      I know some people have said it feels weird that Tom Hardy would be playing the oldest version of Max, but when he filmed Fury Road, he was actually almost ten years older than Gibson was when he filmed Thunderdome.

Being a thrill ride doesn't mean you have to dumb your movie down. This movie still had amazing lore, world building and great complex concepts. The action was stellar, the directing, pacing, cinematography and music are all done so damn well. It didn't even need good acting.... but it still had Charlize Theron and Tom Hardy with great performances. It's just so damn fun.

      It's a bait and switch. Call the movie Mad Max, then the whole thing is actually about all the female characters. If they really had confidence in the movie, they should have let the characters it's really about be on the billboard, and let it sink or swim on it's own merits.

Max helps here and there but he never saves the day all alone (apart the first movie maybe, but it's just a vengeance, he doesn't have anything to save anymore ...), it's more mutual interests between him and the rest of world.
      Saying he isn't important to anything is incorrect but it's true that it's the first time another character has as much importance as him. Not enough to pretend that it doesn't deserve the title of "Mad Max" though.

    It is meant to be a continuation, of sorts, of the first three films. The Mad Max films are meant to be watched as if somebody is telling you about the legend of Max.

      I agree about the legend for the 2nd film (and possible the third) but certainly no t the first. Also, Max doesn't get the car until towards the end of the first film, it's not destroyed. It is destroyed in MM2 but he doens't have it at all in MM3. As for a continuation, although this is a fun film in it's own right (although the overaction from some commentators here makes me laugh/cringe "best film my arse") it bears little or no relation to the gritty world set up in the previous films. Instead it's a comic book over-the top movie. Nothing wrong with that.

      George Miller doesn't really care too much about the continuity of the series. Fury Road is meant to be a fresh start of sorts as if the first 3 didn't happen, but it used an un-produced script for a 4th Mel Gibson film. So it can be viewed as a continuation but I think it just makes more sense as a reboot.

    • @michaellorah9051
      @michaellorah9051 Před 4 lety +4

      The backstory for Fury Road's interceptor is that after the original is destroyed in Road Warrior, he builds a new one using what's left and whatever scrap he can find. There are several distinct differences such as the headlight covers, the lack of rear spoiler corners on the Fury Road interceptor, and interior shots of the car don't show any left over police stuff. This also explains the decrepit and worn out state the interceptor is in at the start of Fury Road. The original interceptor would have run circles around the warboys. Apparently the story goes that he went completely insane between the events of Road Warrior and Fury Road and this is the result. My understanding is the chronological order is MM, MM2, Fury Road, and Thunderdome.

    The only way to resolve all of the movies is to look at them all as folk tales people tell in the wasteland about a hero named Max. That explains the varying degrees of how bad the post apocalypse is, or how far in, the similarities between the movies, and the Interceptor.

    Tom Hardy is a better Max than Mel Gibson. And I'm saying that as someone who grew up watching the Mad Max films. Truth is, Mel's Max was more iconic for his look than anything tangential to the character. Hardy's Max is far more approachable and interesting to watch.

    It's been talked about, but basically Max is a folk tale in-universe. That's why there's not steady continuity between all the films. The films essentially tell the story of Max as a heroic figure as a way of exploring the world that's been created.

    Mikey, from MwM on Filmjoy, in his episode on the movie makes a great point - this is a movie about being a good ally. And I think Tom Hardy played Max in a way where his ability to empathize with the plight of others did come across pretty well. Mel Gibson doing that seems... unlikely.

This movie is actually a follow up from the comics and video game. Not from Thunderdome. The flashbacks he has in this are not his daughter they are from characters in the comics. From a completely different story line than is in any movie. I gotta love GM for this. He doesn't want his story tainted with any outside source.
