30 Facts You Didn't Know About Mad Max: Fury Road

- With 2 new Mad Max films on the horizon, I knew I had to make a video on one of my all time favorite post-apocalyptic action flicks, Fury Road!
In many ways it's a miracle this movie was even released with the development hell it went through for 15 years, and it feels like some of that bad luck rubbed off on me, cause my PC nearly died multiple times through the making of this video!
Make sure to like and subscribe if you enjoyed it! I'm off to hopefully fix whatever's wrong with my computer, have a great day everyone! - บันเทิง
How ironic to think that Tom Hardy And Charlize Theron had conflict while their stunt doubles literally fell in love in the midst.
Definitely my favorite fact in this video, and one of the few that I didn’t know about beforehand! I couldn’t stop smiling for a good minute when I heard it.
Star egos vs real people who work for a living and get along great.
Theron is a head case. A pure ego trip.
For real! Even though my wife hated this movie (I talked to her in to watching it twice, while dating and a year or 2 after we got married) I found this fun fact so interesting, it's the one I sent her anyway. So cool. Goodness to cancel out the conflict and disdain. I love it!
@@JPerry-jw9ik I was going to refer to her as something that rhymed with a trazy tunt but she seems like the kind of person to come after someone IRL.
Fury Road is a rare example of a movie where it feels like the worldbuilding extends beyond what we directly see. That's not uncommon in sci fi or fantasy books, but Movies don't go the extra mile in that category nearly as often.
Well because it was a sequel we did not have to worry about much of the origin stories many films have to deal with. And because of those earlier films we can make a lot of assumptions about context in this movie.
The PlayStation game actually sorta consists in the universe.
@@FencelineFilms the game expands a lot on things such as Gastown, the buzzards and new characters but still leaves loads to the imagination. I don't think George Miller considers it canon but that's mostly for legal reasons.
the war boys all did 3weeks of real military bootcamp. they kept the cars hidden until the day of shooting. this was way back when Hollywood used to pay, man this was fun!
@@glenchapman3899 Exactly. The worldbuilding is minimal because we already know 99% of the plot from the earlier movies. Bad guy controls resources, people are enslaved, Max saves the day allmost entirely against his will.
The story itself is 98% carchases and explosions, all we need is a reason for the chase to happen and the rest of the backstory is not irrelevant. This was also true for StarWars and that is why the prequeals failed: *don't tell the backstory*.
Not a big fan of Carlize Theron but she is right. It's highly disrespectful to constantly be late.
She was excellent in this though. Yeah, sucks about Hardy.
He ended up apologizing for it and him and Theron actually figured it out and were not fighting each other. Imagine shooting that movie. Hot as fuck in all these rusted cars, strapped to the front of one? Noone is perfect.
I really wished that she had been supported at that moment.
Hollywood has always had a bad reputation for tolerating manchild. They really don't seem to care, as long as they make profit.
@@OliverCrooks it wasnt hot there
@@spaceon_fr It was filmed in Namibia, South Africa, and Australia and you are telling me it was not hot???
My favorite fact is, that the gigahorse actually has a working twin v8 engine. They could have easily just made it look that way and hide a big diesel underneath. But instead they really bolted two v8 together with a custom gearbox adaptor, and the thing actually worked. That's insane and unnecessary and impractical and I love it
Yeh, the engine(s) blew the turbo 400 gearbox daily, so they replaced it with an Allison 5 speed truck gearbox.
I think a lot of the cars were bought off car enthusiast mechanics and then further customized to fit the movie but yeah I think what your talking about was done by the set mechanics
@@robertnicholson7733. Had a buddy on set that told me that if you look close you will see it’s rear axel has air brakes they used a electric compressor to supply the air. They built two. One still survives but unclear where it’s at
@@jhonsiders6077 I would not be surprised, i am sure most of them have weird stuff on them to make them look good on the screen even if it led to an impractical vehicle.
@@jhonsiders6077 NEW Movie has it
That guy with the guitar that spits fire was outstanding.
And Miller insisted the guitar be playable and rigged to the speaker stack behind the performer.
The guy is Coma Doof Warrior
My all time favorite film.
Sad to hear Tom Hardy is so inconsiderate of others' time. He's such an enjoyable actor.
yeah he be a diva, that is well known. but i gotta say therons reaction to it was just as shitty. i'm not surprised that hardy got aggressive with her. my understanding is theron has had "issues" with almost EVERY co star she has EVER worked with. set McFarland had a LOT of negative things to say about working with her(million ways to die).
this is the thing people being able to act well but be a shitty person when off screen (similar to those who think the rolls they play in movies gives them real world expertise)
I'm yet to enjoy a movie by Hardy. Or tv show.
@@MrLegion45 What kind of joyless person doesn't enjoy Fury Road?
@@jamesf694 Nah, that was a totally normal reaction and it's good of her to stand up for the crew like that. Wasting the time of dozens of people for hours like that is extremely rude and inconsiderate. Theron's own issues on other movies don't change that.
I dont care what you say, this is arguably the greatest action film of all time and easily one of the best films ever
thats the fucking Truth
Whats your top 5 films of all time?
@@paulp939 LOTR, Seven Samurai, City of God, Alien & Aliens, Alita: Battle Angel, Ghost in the Shell (the animated movie), The Hateful Eight and Hero. In no particular order, Mad Max is there as well. Honorable mentions: The Fifth Element, Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets, Tropa De Elite and The Man from Nowhere, just to name a few.
The implication of more movies like this one are being made brings tears to my eyes and hope in humanity’s future
Our future or the character's future? 'Cause the way our world is shaping up, people will be protesting the killing of zombies if there's a zombie outbreak because "human rights!".
How it seems to be the movie industry today, I doubt any future movies of the series would be good. It would be a surprise if it is 50% as good as this one.
We can't wait to see another strong, powerful woman origin story.
Well, here we are. Have you seen furiosa? Do you like when movies preach to you? Did you like fury roads live action? None of it in furiosa. CGI felt clean and plastic. Fake as a 3 dollar bill. So yeah. More movies like this aren't being made. It was a one time thing. At least we got one decent film
RIP Night Rider. When you look to the night sky, remember his name!
Seems everyone forgot by this point :P
NIGHT RIDER
There was nothing like watching this in theater. Me and my friends lost our shit when we saw the guitar flamethrower!! Dude was so into it
I sadly hated it in movie theaters. And didn't fully enjoy it till I saw it on DVD/Blu-Ray
The problem was the theater I saw it at was an Elvis Cinema, not the greatest of theaters, include, audio. I wish Icould have seen it on IMAX
@@Ange1ofD4rkness yeah I can understand that. We saw it in IMAX. One of my better movie experiences.
@@buttamob6450 I can imagine, the audio alone!
I thought the movie was "meh" when it first came out, but over the years after watching again here and there... i liked it more and more. I watched again maybe like a month ago and completely enjoyed the whole movie. The sandstorm/chase scene is fucking amazing.
Dude! Exactly. What a killer movie.
A bit of trivia you didn't mention was that the design for the buzzards were inspired by the spike covered Volkswagen beetle from the 1974 film "The Cars That Ate Paris", a movie that was clearly inspirational to the look and style of the Mad Max films.
Never seen it. I'll totally check it out!
Yeah I think the original Mad Max came out a year after this movie The Cars That a Paris
I saw 'the cars thst ate paris' when I was 4!
Mad max still does it better
It is hard to reconcile that Peter Weir directed the Cars That Ate Paris when you consider his later films, it is hardly Oscar-winning stuff. An indication that bizarre and perhaps even original does not equal good. I can't see anything from The Cars... in the earlier Max films. When I first watched Fury Road, the spikey cars meant nothing, i did really have much time to think at all, my mind was blown. The second time, I thought, yeh, I have seen them before and remembered, but really the settings were quite differnt, in Paris the spikes stood out (no pun intended), but in Fury Road they fitted right in. I hope they bring the Max films back to cinemas when the new one comes out, or at least Fury Road, nothing beats the big screen, sitting so you can't see the edges of the screen. I do that for very few films, the only other I can remember is 2001, first in 1980 (I was alone in the theatre in the middle of the day having sat for my last university exam that semester) and then in 2001 re-release in 70mm SuperPanavision -Wow! I missed out on the Nolan restored original? 70mm SuperPanavision Screening in 2018, I doubt that I will get another chance, which is a shame.
It's so funny that Theron and Hardy hated each other on set because Max and Furiosa have such great chemistry on screen
It's always been fuckin nuts to me that they actually built all cars on the movie. A lot of ingenuity and straight up badass wheels of hell.
The only thing they kinda messed up on was everyone grabbing on to hot exhaust pipes or the blower intakes when they were climbing all over the vehicles, otherwise it was a great movie.
Blower intakes I am ok with they don't get hot
and exhausts I can't think of a seen that one wasn't handled without a heat shield
I did not notice this, but because there is almost no CGI used, actors were grabbing to them irl, so i doubt they were hot, otherwise actors would got burned aswell.
If you watch the scene in road warrior, feral kid uses a blower to bring himself into the cab during the final chase sequence.
So it’s already happened in universe.
u kidding right in a world with limited resources an gas an oil is extremely rare to get but let's drive around for no resources to waste fuel an let's just have flame throwers wasting fuel for what exactly no reason oh it looks cool no other reason. nothing in movie makes since on world with limited resources they just got to waste resources
They were wrapped in thick layers of cloth a lot of the time for people to grab.
I mean I always assumed the inhaling of metallic spray paint was a kind of post-apocalyptic “berserker” move, in that one takes in a large dose of hallucinogens before committing a kamikaze in battle. Paint abusers will tell you metallic paint is most effective as well.
Same
I Figured it Was a Different Type of Coins in TheEyes for TheBoatMan...🤔
Literally chroming lmao
Yeah lacquer heads is what some here in Arkansas and other areas of the USA call them.
@@Manco65 yep and Primus has a song about lacquer heads as well.
I had a neighbor we called Cosmo. He used to huff silver krylon paint from bread bags. His face was always silver.
If any of you gamers out there haven't played the Mad Max game made by WB to come out alongside this movie, you're missing out. It's like the combat from the Arkham games, combined with driving like GTA and quests like an AC game. Fuckin' epic.
Brilliant game!
Recently heard this games actually a sleeper. May have to check er out.
Ya, I thought that it was well done, also.
Fantastic game with two different elements combined into one. I can only imagine what it cud b like if it was built as a triple AAA game. It cudve been even greater.
the Mad max game is super underrated...
George Miller's films are medically accurate because he is a physician. He graduated medical school and completed a residency in emergency medicine.
I rewatched this film, and I was really missing the dialogue. But then I understood, I am watching a graphic novel.
I always assumed the silver spray was just paint they were inhaling, to get high in battle.
Pretty much. That is what chroming is after all.
Absolute brilliant film making by Miller! Loved every part of this movie and so glad to hear about sequels.
My god why doesn’t Warner Bro. Pay George any sum of money he wants. I hope a sequel shows up. Best action film in years.
There are talks of making Furiosa. But last I read they replacing Charlize
Didn't watch the whole video?
at the end of the vid he seemingly confirms furiosa and another movie to be released.
Cause it's WB
If WB was smart, they'd find some other directors in George's realm and taper down on all the weird culture-war junk and super hero shit
Love how oil is such a rare resource in this universe but they just shoot flamethrowers from the cars for fun
The lack of oil was more of a thing in Mad Max 2. In Fury Road, one of Immortan Joe's allies controls a place called "Gas Town" that appears to be an entire refinery.
Outstanding! I couldn't believe what I was watching when I first saw this masterpiece. I just knew it was special, so I told everyone I talked to to see this back in 2015. Thank for the absolutely insane breakdown " WITNESSSSSSSS!"
I was young when I watched it first time and absolutely hated it. Just watched it today. I think this is the greatest action movie.
@@sanketparmar5173 Absolutely!!
16:07 I refuse to believe the Hardy’s Max is the same character that Gibson portrayed, what I believe is that Hardy’s Max is the feral kid from Mad Max 2 taking up the Mad Max mantle due to his admiration for the original Mad Max
A theory I heard and like is that this movie is something that happens before thunder dome, but is told years after the fact. Like a camp fire tale, that's why is so over the top in some parts. Adding to the Legends
I always look at it as same universe, but not part of the story. All because of 1 element, the Interceptor.
The car is destroyed in Road Warrior, so it couldn't take place then, meaning, it would have to come before. Only problem, Fury Road destroys it as well. Not to mention, the Dinky Dee, aka the dog. Or the fact Max isn't wearing a leg brace
I feel as if when this movie came out it was spoken of as a reboot more so than a continuation.
@@Ange1ofD4rkness It's a different Interceptor that Max was building from the ground up. There are comics that tell the story taking place after Thunderdome. It was originally going to be in a video game that Miller was developing with Cory Barlog in conjunction with Fury Road until the game plans fell thru again.. For the 3rd time..Also the Warner game studio was making their own game around this period as well. There are bits and pieces of content still in the game that was all (piece from here and piece from there) taken from the long history of Fury Road's development.
@@Aeon2Flux But wasn't gasoline, guns, and many other things a rarity by the time Thunderdome was out?
Also, society doesn't seem too far fallen yet at this point, or more, in the middle, before being built back up with Thunderdome
I saw this movie 3 times with my boyfriend at the time. We loved it so much it really is a beautifully shot film. Absolutely gorgeous cinematography
FYI, in Australia doof (as in doof-doof music; techno etc) is pronounced like woof (a dog barking), not roof.
🤣👍
That's because of your silly accents, obviously
I liked Tom Hardy but man Eric Bana would have killed it.
It is a rare day that I prefer anyone over Hardy for a role but you're dead right
Faarken oath.
He's a great actor. He has that serious look about him to pull it off too. I think the movie, Deliver Us From the Devil, was a great, and hardly ever talked about, movie he was in.
One of my favorite action movies of all time. Great video. Some details had escaped my scope, until now.
Fun fact… Coke Australia had to cancel the non-transparent “Gold” 600ml Olypics Edition Coke bottle because of the “chroming” epidemic of the era as ppl would spray paint into the bottle then walk around having a sniff at will and no-one could see the bottle actually had paint in it rather than Coke
There's a black and white "chrome edition" of Fury Road made because Miller thought it would be a great alternative aesthetic. It's really good too.
This was great. Thank you for putting it together. Absolute masterpiece of a movie.
7:14 Imagine an alternate timeline where Eminem played Mad Max🤣🤣
0:20 "No one watches a Mad Max film for the dialogue!" - Me, coming out of Furiosa
God this movie is a tapestry. People used to give me shit for liking action movies instead of "real movies" and I got to do such a huge victory lap around all of them when this turned out to be the best movie of the year. God I wish Hollywood made more movies like this.
Most action movies are not that good. This film is an extreme outlier.
@@EricCKeys may as well be an art film with action
I love action movies and this mad max movie is sick
Such a great movie and such a great breakdown of truly interesting facts.
Lots of videos out there pointing out interesting things in movies, but this is the best I've seen. thanks :)
His wife is amazing for editing the whole thing
Too bad she is still nameless for most (and me I admit), defined by her husband. Going to look her up now. What an amazing movie that was!
As good as fury road is something I enjoyed the most about it was the mystery about the Crow fishers. I especially found it adorable how people were so pissed about not understanding that scene. It made perfect sense to me when you're on a long road trip and you see something weird out the window and don't stop to figure it out it was kind of like that for me. 7 years later I see the title of this video and I figured it would be explained which I also had no problem with.
I will never understand why most people feel the need to have everything explained to them. I guess it's that they lack imagination...probably from watching way too much TV.
@@derkeheath5172 Sometimes you see something that is interesting and you want to know what it is. For a movie that has as much effort into developing well thought out and interesting setting and is engaging as Fury Road is, it shouldn't be surprising that people want to learn as much about it as they can. It seems unnecessarily dismissive to suggest that those people just lack imagination. It's a bit like concluding that the people who were fine with them not being explained simply lack curiosity, instead of understanding that they just prefer more mystery.
I always assumed it was another civilization, learning to live where they could, staying off the toxic ground
@@Ange1ofD4rkness That's pretty cool and more imagination than I put into it. Never really thought about why they were on stilts other than maybe a status symbol. Appearance may be but yeah cool scene for sure.
@@demonicusa.k.a.theblindguy3929 Yeah the idea came into my mind, and was "cemented" when they talk about the ground turning sour later on in the film
that one handed off the boot reload is one of the coolest things ive ever seen
Another great breakdown of an amazing movie.
Thanks a lot for this video! Mad Max: Fury Road is one of my favorite movies, right on par with Water World which had similar production issues from what I've heard. I even got myself the Ripper for Rocket League because of it.
Interesting facts that I didn’t know about my favorite movie.
By the way, keep creating this concert. I love it subscribed. I had no idea these awesome facts!!! great job!!!!!!
wow, great job, i actually didn't know most of these!
Eminem as Max? That's a hoot. I can picture him rapping against the flamethrower guitar dude.
Fun fact: Fury Road was the first movie I've ever bought without ever seeing it in theater first. I only knew of it when the trailers dropped, but that was about it. I just bought it because "Mad Max" :D
When the trailer came out I thought wow this looks like a pile of crap, sort of like the continuation of Thunderdome. Went and saw it and yes mind blown, very happy I was so wrong
I didn't find that fact very fun at all ಠ_ಠ
@@glenchapman3899 I was kinda the same way. It just looked like a cheap imitation... boy, was I wrong.
@@cujoedaman I genuinely love being wrong about stuff like this
Awesome. Video. I just rewatched this again yesterday
Thanks for FULLY deciphering the tattoo on Max's back, I'VE always wondered what it says entirely!! THANK YOU!!!
Need to make another one right now. Wow such a good movie. Great job guys
As much as I want to keep listening to this video, the narrator sounds like a human-sounding robot learning human speech patterns.
I learnt so manyu things that make me like this movie even more. Thank you for you analysis ans story telling.
The chrome thing also fits because it's said that viking berserkers took magic mushrooms before battle and fury road has a lot of viking style stuff
They did not, that's a long time disproven theory. On most kinds of mushrooms you're just capable of sitting on your ass and halucinating, certainly not figting.
Wow great facts! This movie is literally one of the best in my lifetime. Makes me want to watch it again 😀.
The most badass movies the game was pretty good too
To be fair, Max didn't reload with only one hand. He only used one of his hands but the other was Nux's.
So technically, Max still reloaded with one hand. He had assistance, sure. But Max used one hand only.
Excellent! Thank you!
This is so dope. Makes me appreciate the film more
great video! i'm just gonna watch the movie again RIGHT NOW :D
Summer of 2016 I went to go see my girlfriend in Sydney Australia. I must of watched this movie 3 times during the flight. A very fond memory I have at that time. Oh time flies.
I'm sorry for your loss.
Quick word on Aussie doofs.
Pronounced Doof as in woof. Not doof as in goof. And named for the doof doof of the music that goes all day and all night until the events over.
Also, never heard of it being called a “doof party”. Bush doof or rave are the only terms I hear.
Awesome video all in all though!
Great video!
I just watched your Private Ryan, Nolan's Batman, and this one.... Just cemented a new big fan, and made me recall just how much I Love movies and finding and movie trivia. I appreciate you, have you done fear and loathing in Las Vegas? I'm a big GoNZo fan
I loved this movie. Great movie all around. Great video on mad max fury road. I sometimes think this will be our future.
Thanks for sharing!
This movie is the reason i always keep my tank full ⛽️
Amazing movie thank you for the video
This movie gave me hope for the future of film.
Who all saw Furiosa and came back to this video ?
Tom Hardy seemed so uninterested in being Max.
So great!! Thanks for compiling these; George Miller is one of the genius film makers of our time; you really showcase that here… appreciate all your work to compile these 30 unknowns, keep them coming!
Literally my favorite action flick ever!!!!
The reviews for the silver spray is just awesome
Kool stuff!⚡️
OUTSTANDING!
Im here from 2023 and furiosa is confiremed
"When the water didn't dry up" that's ironic broken hill is now a dying town because they can't get water out there now
I'm so glad those red arrows are in the thumbnails, I wouldn't know what to focus on otherwise
The Doof Warrior's guitar was made from a hospital bed pan
7:04 Good thing he didnt hire Armie Hammer. He would have actually eaten everyones flesh on set. Actually maybe he should have been in the movie...
SO AWESOME!!!!!!
Holy crap I only just noticed the interceptor chrome not black. I saw this when it came out. I have loved the mad max movies since I was a kid in the 80s
It's polished steel not chrome
And once it was worked on by the black fingers in the citadel it was called the razor cola
The fact that toe cutter is immortal Joe blew my mind. I had no clue.
480 hours of film? They should make a few more movies from that!
That movie was amazingly well done...👍it's a big comic book in motion... The last I saw was the original Crow movie...it was so good as the comic book...very rare to have all part in one movie...story, music,visual and all those in one . Oh Alien also and batman with Michelle Pfeiffer😊..lol good job it deserved a long story.
the only issue with crow fishing is if you kill a crow from a murder then the crows of that murder will attack you would be hard to walk on stilts if crows kept dive bombing you
yooo that’s Epic
Btw center framing comes from early Hollywood films, they also had boarders that were square so you knew for a fact your were watching the relevant characters for the scene. It’s known as classic Hollywood style.
thanks, imma watch this again
Interesting about the sequel. I am a background actor and about a week ago there was a casting call for wasteland looking people. That must have been for the sequel
I hope you're right so bad
prequel
I'm looking forward to the prequel and the sequel
I once thought that The Wizard of Oz would forever hold the record for the number of times I had seen a movie. In just the span of 8 years, Mad Max Fury Road has surpassed it with probably 20 to 25 complete viewings... and still counting. I pick up bits and pieces every time I watch it. Yes, a sequel with Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron is needed and desired... if you can keep them from each others' throats. (P.S. Would have been great to see Hardy as James Bond and Theron as a Bond girl... . Can you imagine that? She would have needed an injection of Valhalla Chrome).
A couple cool things I want to add: first, the show measuring thing that Furiosa uses as a gas pedal is set to the women's side, making it uncomfortable for men to use (which almost the entirety of the empire is made of), and also adds to how she personalized the entire rig so that only she (and people she teaches) can drive it. Second, the drug in the chrome paint also helps Joe manipulate the war boys into thinking he's giving them some kind of special superhuman power, making them think he's even more of a god
The Australian location literally turned into the now non-existent "Geen Place" from the movie!
And BTW, is worshipping V8s something unusual? 😅
Yin Yang, fast and furious is the alpha bros wet dream,
Mad Max Fury Road is a Nod/Love letter/upgrade Neapolitan ice cream hybrid blend of old school practical effects and modern vfx but with also modern wisdom of practical action sequences and stunts, a real modern master piece, and I’m so glad miller is doing another one.!!!!!!!$$$ can’t wait
I enjoyed your video
KILLLLLLER VIDEO! 💪🏻
Great movie & luved the game too 👍🏻
Upon first view, We had thought it was the little boy grown up from the prev Mad Max films, the kid with the boomerang, as that little boy grunted also to speak and carried the music box
I absolutely love how production of such a helectik movie was perfectly portrayed for a very helectik movie
Magnificent!! Can we find out about all the vehicles in the film?
