"You need water to live, buddy!"
Exactly what an addict would say 😂
LOL This comment is golden
I am a living example that you don't need water to live. But I will say, not having it doesn't do your mental health any favors😅😅😅
George Miller, the director, had his wife Margaret Sixel edit Mad Max: Fury Road. Miller said that she had never cut an action movie before, and he said if it was edited by "the usual kind of guys, it would look like every other action movie we see." She went on to win a Oscar for her editing work in the film.
How amazing is that!
Hours of intense action with a few minutes to breathe here and there. You can't even call it a roller-coaster of a ride. It's more like being in a race car.
The red headed actress is Elvis Presley's granddaughter. She's married to the guy who plays the guitar on the truck.
Riley Keough is the one. And she also managed to save Graceland from some attempts by unscrupulous land grabbers.
And she's also Seth Green's DAD!!!
Coma/Doof Warrior was played by 2 different guys, a musician and a stuntman. Riley married the stuntman.
Fun fact: While everyone thinks this is a post-apocalyptic film, it's really just Australia on an average day.
If they weren't driving all the time, it would have had massive spiders instead.
☠,,MEDIOCRe lovely AVERAGE d@y"☠
Don't slow down or the drop bears will get you
Couldn't be Australia, nobody was upside down.
Come on! Anyone that's been a flat earther knows "Down Under" IS IMPOSSIBLE so Australia doesn't exist!
My favorite trivia about this movie is that while Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron did not get along well while shooting this movie, their stunt doubles definitely did. They ended up falling in love while filming Max and Furiosa's fight. And because Fury Road took so long to get through post production, their first child was born before the movie even made it to theaters.
hahaa that has to be one of my favourite trivia facts in movies now, thanks for sharing!!
Falling in love with someone while rolling around in the dirt trying to kill each other 🥰
Neat little trivia (and reminds me of the actors from Starship Troopers who married after she 🤯 him)
Yeah i read a bit about it. Tom Hardy has a reputation for being tough to work with, according to a bunch of actors. Charlize Theron was always on time and ready to go, while Tom would often show up late. Charlize didn't hold back in calling him out for it, which caused some tension on set.
Not only that, but Tom being the cheeky fucker he is, apologized to Charlize after filming by giving her an autographed photo of himself lmao
@@Zedd0zexcept the crew has since said that that rumor wasn’t even true. Hardy’s refusal to come out on time came AFTER their beef started. Meaning it wasn’t the reason. No one could honestly figure out why the two couldn’t stand each other. There seemed to be no rhyme or reason.
Fun fact: the actor who plays Immortan Joe also played the character Toecutter in the original 1979 Mad Max 😊
And he's in the new one too....
@JohnDAmico-ci2hz the character is in the new Furiosa film, but the actor is not. Hugh Keays-Byrne died a few years after Fury Road came out, when Furiosa was still in development hell. Lachy Hulme takes over the role in the new film.
I live, I die, I live again
Its not often you get a movie that is litteraly a 2 hour car chase with so much character development, redemption arcs and story.
I let a friend borrow my copy, he was going to watch 1 hr of the movie then watch a football game that night. Instead he watched Fury Road and one hour of football.
Not since terminator 2
Cannonball run?
@@deadcatthinks6725 Jesus christ people he said it's not often, not that it never happened before
@@GeorgeTropicanaQUICK NAME EVERY MOVIE IT HAPPENED IN
“I am the scales of justice! Conductor of the choir of death! Sing, Brother Heckler! Sing, Brother Koch!”
THE most metal movie ever. \m/ It’s like an ‘80s Iron Maiden album cover by Derek Riggs came to life.
max is considered high octane because of his blood, at the beginning of the film the tattoos show that he is type O- universal donor, that's why he is so valuable
Also because he was hard to subdue and Nux thinks he will get Max's superior vitality. The Warboys have a very 'essence consumption' kinda vibe with the blood and milk motifs.
Probably the single best action movie to come out of the last decade or so? I seriously cannot fault it, spectacularly staged action, excellent performances, captivating and memorable characters, gorgeous cinematography and a seriously kickass score. It just keeps getting better every single time I watch it, a modern action-packed masterpiece without a doubt
It's literally a true master class on writing, directing, cinematography, vfx, music, pacing, any flaws it has are miniscule and nit picks.
@@mycroft16 I would be hard pressed to name a single flaw.
It felt so different even in the theater. I was skeptical as to whether I would like it based on the first intro trailers, as I'm not much of a Mad Max fan, but I could appreciate the world and story. By the time the final trailer came out it was looking fantastic and I actually wanted to see it, which usually means it's going to be a great film. Was definitely impressed and loved it. Haven't found anyone that didn't enjoy it so far.
Dredd is also an incredible action movie that doesn't get anywhere near the recognition it deserves.
The Raid 2 would like a word.
Of all the characters in the movie, Nux is the one whose journey really gets to me. When he mouths to "Witness me" and Capable responds...that fucks me up every time now.
It's uncomfortably relatable to be driven to making one desperate last effort to make a difference.
The way Nux is bookended by "Witness me" - shouted as a battle cry for his overlord and then whispered as a prayer for hope (something he never had before, even if it isn't for himself) 😭
He’s asking his Valkyrie to witness him. She reached out and grabbed his soul.
The guy who spent the whole movie trying to die for all the wrong reasons finally lays down his life for the right ones.
Masterpiece of a character that's not expecting that type of death❤
The journey from needing to be witnessed by the war boys and Immortan, for show, for the ritual to only needing her to know that he is doing this because he loves her is beautiful. And so organically done. It just grows naturally. His blind belief. Belief shattered. Finding a new belief that is real. Earning it, committing to it. Sacrificing selflessly for it.
Immortan Joe the main villain was played by the late Hugh Keays Byrne who also played the Toecutter in the original Mad Max.
The way Addie lit up every time the "band" was on screen 🤘😄
"I am the scales of justice. Conducter of the choir of death. Sing brother, sing!"
sing, Brother Koch. As in - Heckler und Koch.
And I love that by him being blind and just shooting randomly, he is the most fair justice of all, completely unbiased.
Imortan Joe's face being torn off turns Addie in to Mickey Mouse... Who knew? \= )
She did it at 2:58 too. "Gosh, this is horrifying." Mickey Mouse sounds intensify. 😂
"I would not care to live in this world. I would have been dead a long time before this, though."
That's the thing about post-apocalypse situations. Everybody thinks they'd be Max Rockatansky when in fact they'd be Skull #71 in that big pile in the background.
lol I'm under no allusions that I'm a main character. I'm an NPC going about my humble NPC life and generally pretty ok with it.
in world lore that i love is the idea of vehicles and machinery as divinity. the reason they venerate Chrome is because its a world of rust and grime, while chrome is pure and clean, pristine. also, you can catch it in the background a few times especially early on, their prayer has them extend their fingers and cross them, and they tuck in their thumbs. this is to resemble the 8 cylinders of a V8 engine, while the clasped hands and thumbs make the engine block.
Spraying their teeth makes a 'chrome grill' 😁
Love the layers of the V-8 cult in Fury Road (and Furiosa) that are told with barely any explanation.
Nux has a deconstructed engine block scarred into his chest as schematic, they think of blood as fuel, their heaven is an eternal battle road... so many little details.
Glorious worldbuilding!
LOL that Bane impression. HAHAHAHA well done Addie
This movie has a very tumultuous production history. From starting filming in 2001 to 9/11 halting filming due to the economic crisis afterwards, to recasting Mel Gibson because of controversies and age, to bad weather conditions causing the filming locations to be unusable, to actors straight up feuding with each other. There’s a book called Blood Sweat and Chrome, which details the rocky production of Fury Road from its conception. I highly recommend checking it out if you have the time.
Oh what a day!
15:04 best scene, the music, the intensity, Max and Furiosa working together *chef's kiss*
I remember when this movie came out, it blew everyone's mind.
It was the biggest action movie for a long time.
Saw it 2 times in IMAX, mind blowing...
Then came The Snyder Cut!
Witness me!!!
Witness!
Witness!!!
Mediocre!
AVENGE MEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
Huh? What? Oh sorry I missed it.
This movie was absolutely bonkers insane craziness, but I mean that in the best way possible, as every single scene was a fatal accident on the freeway, that you can NEVER turn away from.
You need to watch mad max
Mad max 2 road warrior
And mad max beyond thunderdome ❤
The flamethrower guitar guy actually has the greatest name ever: Coma the Doof Warrior! (Shoutout to the replies for correcting me)
Also, the music he and his drummers play, awesome as it is, does actually serve a purpose for the warband beyond motivation - the music signals the Immortan's orders to the other cars so they can stay in formation or change course on command. You can see an example when all the cars come to a stop during the nighttime sequence, he just strums a steady "holding pattern," to signal for the other cars to stop and wait.
And Conan O'Brien cosplayed him for Comic Con!
His name is Coma, not Conan.
He's the heavy metal version of a military bugler.
@@kuhpunkt Huh, right you are. I'll fix my comment, thanks!
@@ShwiftJustice "wook mommy I know pop culture twivia, pwease teww me what a smart boy I am"
Mad Max Fury Road is a film so heavy metal that it looked like an Iron Maiden video. The followers of the villain's cult (a name too complicated for me to remember) are the craziest thing in the film, including the band that I particularly liked.
The women in this film, from the sweetest and most innocent to the most badass of all, were tough until the end and, as the film had a toe in Norse mythology, it makes sense that they would be like that.
I loved it
The best action flick in years, maybe in more than a decade... great choice.
Absolutely, a masterpiece. There are so many scenes that make me yell “Hell yeah!” every time.
One of the things the book talks about is how the studio almost shut the film down a few times, and then wanted to throw it all away when they saw the original edit. Can you imagine a world without this film?? Also, while I prefer the color version, there is a great "black & chrome" version of this film that well worth a watch if you can find it. I got to see it in a theatre and it was gorgeous. Now you really do need to see "Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga". While it's not as good overall as MMFR - I mean, how could it be - it does a great job of telling Furiosa's story and you get to see the locations they talk about in this film, along with some of the characters. Anya Taylor-Joy was great but Chris Hemsworth is amazing in it. Great reaction, Addie. You have been WITNESSED!
I think Furiosa would be praised much more if we didn't already saw Fury Road. This movie is practically perfect - Furiosa had big shoes to fill, which was an impossible task.
@@mizrolist Up to a point, I agree. It is a prequel so that was my excitement in expanding the world and story. And I certainly had no expectations that they could match or meet the greatness of Fury Road, but there are still some OMG moments and it works as a great prequel which then immediately connects to Fury Road. I really want to see a double-feature with both films at some point.
I like to think while scouring the prop department they ran across the stilts used by the Henson Group while making The Dark Crystal and figured a way to write their use into the lore.
4:12 "Oh, okay. I can't wait to see him die at some point."
29:01 You asked for it.
The amount of "show, don't tell" style storytelling that goes on in this movie is astounding and rewatches pay off with more and more little details every time.
Mad Max, especially part 2 The Road Warrior, was a major inspiration for the Fallout games. Max is known as the Lone Wanderer, he travels with a dog, he is armed with a sawed off shotgun, he travels the Wasteland, and he is sometimes forced to help people he doesn't want to help. His "armor" from the second movie is the same armor you the player start with in the game, and in one of the games there is even an NPC you meet named Max who greets you with a sawed off shotgun.
After furiosa this movie somehow becomes so much better
For me, the best film in the franchise is Mad Max 2 The Road Warrior from 1981. Phenomenal work by the stuntmen.
Yeah that one goes hard into how crazy the world has become. By fury road this is just everyone's normal.
It's well worth looking up some behind the scenes videos for this movie. It's incredible how much of it was real cars, real stunts and real crashes. Like the polecats, and even that final crash of the war rig!
My favorite behind-the-scenes moment continues to be the short clip of Hugh Keays-Byrne in full Immortan Joe garb (but with his mask off) roaring at the War Boys that they look amazing -- and of the Boys responding in character. There's something so wholesome about that. What a class act he seemed to be.
Addie, you should definitely watch the first 3 Mad Max movies, "Mad Max" (1979) "The Road Warrior (aka Mad Max 2)" (1981) and "Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome" (1985).
I recommend the book. Blood sweat and chrome which goes into the 20 year odyssey that was making this movie
Yeah, the book was great and really described the insane way the film was shot and how hard it was on everyone.
Heck yeah. I think last video I just commented that I would love to see a Fury Road reaction, and here it is! :D
What a lovely day it is for you to watch Mad Max: Fury Road (2015), Addie. It's DEFINITELY non-stop action because in these kinds of movies, action speaks louder than words. Just as you have done so now, I also watched this movie for the first time when I was in preparation to see Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (2024) in IMAX with my girlfriend, on that same day. I do hope that you also check out the original Mad Max trilogy with Mel Gibson as Max Rockatansky, as well. #MadMaxTrilogyForAddieCounts BTW, the masked man is Immortan Joe. And you just came up with a BRAND NEW word: "Acquence".
EDIT: I also like how your nail polish matches your shirt.
The production on this film is incredible. Very little CGI was used. They literally built all these vehicles. The war rig is actually powered by two big V8s running in tandem. Making action sequences like this between moving vehicles with people jumping between vehicles while they're being destroyed and explosives are going off is just absolutely insane. They even built a functional flamethrower guitar for the Doof Warrior (the guitarist guy), which was apparently quite the feat of engineering. The film also does an incredible job with visual storytelling. Very little dialogue was needed, and much of it is bastardized English and Aussie slang that's hard to understand anyway.
My favorite of the many great things in this movie is the way the spiked cars make sense in retrospect once we find out about the pole boys.
A fun bit of trivia is that except for two actresses (the 'bait' and the woman who rode in the war rig), The Many Mothers were portrayed by members of an actual biker club (The Vigilantes) who rode the motorcycles in the movie.
5:22 - remember the buglers for US cavalry, or trumpeters in older armies? That is the guitarman's job. He plays music to pass on orders, keep morale going, etc. 18:05 , 18:14 (where he is having trouble motivating), 24:25 (to get everyone moving), 27:55 ,
7:00 & 8:15 - if they die gloriously, witnessed by their fellow Warboys, then they will Mcfeast in Valhalla for eternity.
8:46 - the action just keeps getting bigger. Also notice how many cuts there are with the cameras and how little you notice them, as the action is kept in the center of the screen so your eyes don't have to wander trying to find it.
9:53 - once he regains conscious thought they can work together. Until then he just wanted the metal mask off and plenty of water.
16:38 - see the blood all over her leg, causing her to be weak? Thank Max at 10:39
18:58 - tells you how bad the future is, when a Warboy cannot recognize a tree
19:08 - Furiosa is an amazing shot
20:29 - he is pretty dangerous too
21:10 - free-range protein
23:16 - he is also talking about himself in that sentence
23:54 - Do Warboy Nux and Capable make a cute couple?
25:38 - the PeopleEater likes his food tenderized first
29:37 - Nux has come full circle. Instead of dying for his own glory, he did it for others.
30:29 - Max remembers he is human
31:09 - Max is more along the lines of a catalyst. He makes things easier for others, but does not take part afterwards. Furiosa would have accomplished her mission, but thanks to Max it was much easier.
This really, really... really needs to be seen at a cinema.
More than anything else, this movie proves that Australian stuntmen are absolutely crazy.
Other than the sandstorm there's basically no CGI in this movie. It's all practical effects.
"no CGI" is just invisible CGI.
And this actually has quite a lot of it.
th-cam.com/video/exK_fVmY8Jk/w-d-xo.html
They weren't Australian.
They were Canadian because they had to hire Cirque du Soliel to do stunt work.
This movie is just steeped in texture and detail at every moment. The incredible death cult Immortan Joe had cultivated that mixes Viking Valhalla references, car culture, and inspiring a whole generation of irradiated boys to not even despair that they have tumors and will die but to embrace it and celebrate spectacular deaths. Incredible and just told through actions and philosophy.
This movie is a total gem.
Mad Max and The Road Warrior/MM2 are absolutely worth a watch too.
i swear some of the movie popping up on this channel lately are ones I've just assumed in my brain that I've seen Addie react to, but obviously never have.
props to addie for recognizing nicholas hoult, many people didn't.
Just installed my first very budget sound system, 3 speakers and a subwoofer, very budget....this was the first movie I watched and it was amazing!
0:01 the most adorable impression I've ever seen
Mad Max was the original movie 1979 starring Mel Gibson followed by the sequel Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior and the third one Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome with Gibson and Tina Turner. This movie won 6 Academy Awards. All directed by George Miller. The prequel to this is Furiosa which is in theaters now.
Fun fact: the guitar player guy on the huge truck is called "the Doof Warrior". 😛
Legend has it guitar guy is still playing
31:09 Max is no king. He thinks that he doesn't deserve happiness.
The guy tattooing on Max is the "Organic Mechanic", who has a bigger role in Furisoa, coming to digital next week😅
If you have not you should watch all the mad max movies in order of release it’s such a great franchise.
@Addie The mad Max franchise is one of my favorites in film, so glad you got this in your reactions now :)
Honestly it's one of the best mainstream blockbusters ever made.
I have grown to appreciate the guy shredding on his guitar, throughout the madness (his the icing on the cake). Also it's cool to see that Tom Hardy's role as Bane left an impression.
I am just loving your narration as you take in really dense action scenes 😂 ‘oooh here’s a big boy!’ 🤣
This movie was incredible in the theater in 3D.
Nux starts out as a unsympathetic antagonistic character that end up becoming the most sympathetic death by the end..its ALL Nicolaus hoults performance. He is soo childlike and wants someones,ANYONES approval!! At first it's immortan joe because he was born n raised to believe that his approval is all that matters..at the end he starts getting the approval and sympathy from the ppl he was raised to hate and look down upon, it's like the minute he experiences general kindness for the 1st time in his life and decided to hitch his wagon to their train lol.
He at least got to die historic. I'm sure every time they do the tell, they make sure everyone remembers him.
perhaps Bane and Mad Max are long lost cousins or something 😂
You mean Bane and Immortan Joe
This is 1 of at least 3 movies in 5 years where Tom Hardy had to wear something over his face/mouth for a stretch of the film. (The Dark Knight Rises, Mad Max: Fury Road, Dunkirk)
Even when he doesn't have anything over his face, he usually does his best to sound like he does
Don't forget Venom.
@@mizrolist - That ain't the same.
So glad you liked fury Road so much. There are so many subtle layers to the story, which initially just looks like a nonstop action movie. My favorite question that it asks is, what is religion? The Warboys are all dying of cancer, living a half-life, and Immortan Joe promises to take them personally to Valhalla, where they were live again, as long as they do his bidding.
Nux was the real MVP in this movie.
but have u seen the other mad maxes???
The redhead bride 👰♀️ and the guitarist are married in real life ! If I’m correct they meet on this movie.
I like the theory that the three warlords represent a version of the four riders of the apocalypse, Immortan Joe as Conquest/Pestilence, the People Eater as Famine and the Bullet Farmer as War. To complete the set, Max would be the Death as whereever he goes, death follows. Also he took out everyone in that night scene off-screen, which with there being so many enemies there seems highly unlikely. His constant visions of the people he couldn't save also could be interpreted as the dead he's carrying with him.
Best Timing of the Video: "This scene is stressful!" 😆
Interesting bit of trivia:
Director George Miller was almost the director of DC’s Justice League but the writers strike happened and it killed the attempt. He had a whole cast ready, and two of them are in this movie: Hugh Keays-Byrne and Megan Gale, who would’ve played Martian Manhunter and Wonder Woman.
You deserve to see Furiosa on the big screen while it's still in theaters. Anya Taylor Joy is fantastic in it
Intense/crazy movie.
Love that they used alot of practical effects in this movie, but have a feeling the new one will be mostly CGI.
Addie hope you'll watch the original three Madmax movies.
I won't give spoilers but actor Hugh Keays- Byrne playing the head bad guy Immortan Joe in this film was also in the original 1979 Madmax as a different character. The first movie was made on a very low budget approx $350,000 us, and wasn't expected to become a success/franchise.
The newest movie is a prequel as there can't be a sequel to Madmax Fury Road with both Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron because they apparently didn't get along and don't like each other.
Movie Directors should really do chemistry tests between lead actors ahead of time to avoid that kind of situation .
Oh, what a reaction! What a lovely reaction! :)
I have never come out of a movie theater so simultaneously exhausted and pumped up. Yeah the whole thing is basically a 2 hour car chase with a few pit stops to catch your breath. Some of the best directors around commented on this movie that they have no clue how Miller was able to pull this off. The amount of planning and the time in the desert and all of those extremely real vehicles which they built and drove and did real stunts on.
One thing you don't really catch on first viewing is how few words there really are and yet how much character info we get. Also, how insanely good at using the camera to keep us understanding the action. During the motorcycle jumps in the canyon, you'll have a shot where the bike enters from left going to the right and the shot will change to an opposite view for the next bike and it enters from the right and we cut as it is in the center to the next bike which comes from the center. He uses the action on screen to move your eyes into place for where the action will be in the next shot. He is literally directing the audience on where to look to not get lost in the insanity. That is next level action direction. It is why despite how rapid and fast paced all of the action is, you don't feel lost. It flows smoothly from one shot to the next keeping you focused on where the action is.
I just watched Furiosa "two days ago" I think it might be leaving the theater soon... glad I caught it. I quote an older version of Mad Max... in a heavy accent, "Two days ago, I saw a vehicle that'd haul that tanker..."
I love the Fan theory that Imorten Joe, the People Eater, the Bullet Farmer and Max represent the four horsemen, Joe is pestilence, bullet farmer is war, people eater is famine and max is death, he even says at the beginning about running from the living and the dead. Max even goes off by himself and takes out the bullet farmer and all his men all by himself, bringing death to them. likely not canon but still an interesting idea
We love you Addie🥰
I've often heard this movie described as having "nonstop action", but after watching it all the way through to the end several times, I can confidently say that it eventually does stop.
Great reaction! Great move ❤
The music and sound system are there to pass commands to the other cars over the noise of the engines, like a bugle was used in old battles
Thanks for your Bane impression. It really made me chuckle!
AHH, THE MOVIE THAT CAN ONLY BE APPROPRIATELY DISCUSSED IN ALL CAPS! WITNESSED!!!!
There's a 4 part comic book series that gives a backstory to Nux and why he was given that name. Also a backstory to Immortan Joe (the scary guy), and of course to Furiosa. Also a backstory to the creation of the War Rig. The story begins after the events of "Mad Max 3: Beyond Thunderdome". And "Fury Road" is no.2 in my view of the greatest film of the 21st century (after The Dark Knight).
This movie made me fall in love with film making. I didn’t know a movie could be so entertaining and well crafted at the same time.
3:05 ironically, there is an actual videogame tie-in with this movie, the plot of which is apparently referenced to in the prequel (and the game is pretty good, too)
5:16
Someone: What are you going to do tonight?
Me: Hanging out with the boys.
6:42 Me with I do belly splash naked.
0:01 WHOA.. Cool voice impression, Addie! 😂😂
Jokes aside, this is my favorite Mad Max film alongside the second one and Furiosa, a brand new film that was a prequel to Fury Road.
Addie, I saw the new prequel, "Furiosa: a Mad Max Saga", and it's really excellent! You should see it! Also, you should see the original "The Road Warrior" and "Mad Max: Thunderdome"! They are part of the OG Trilogy and it's awesome! The first film, called "Mad Max", is also a great movie but it's very much a Cult film and it's really a "Foreign" Film because the Australian actors are so hard to understand, with their thick accents. They needed to overdub the movie with voice-overs that were more marketable in America and in the U.K. But it's a great film. All of these films are violent and "apocalyptic", with "The Road Warrior" and following being Post-Apocalyptic" films. Very hard-core but truly classic!
one detail I love about this movie is when they decide to drive through “the salt”: the ocean that evaporated.
Thunderdome is still my favorite Mad Max movie. Then Road Warrior, both of which I love. I like this, and the first movie, but not nearly as much as everyone else.
"Than who killed the world?!" is my favorite line, and it always gets me.
Love this movie so much!
The movie pace is like an engine revving. Action! Slight break. Aaaaaction! Break. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaction!
The minimal dialogue and “show don’t tell” was super cool! You know exactly what’s going on without being told.
Immortan Joe is a great villain because he is “pure” evil but you see remnants of his humanity. His care for the brides, while evil and twisted, was genuine to the point of risking his own life in crashing the car to desperately try and avoid hitting her. He is evil, no question, but just enough humanity remains to make you hate him even more.
Something that makes me sad too is the death of the War Rig. It took them so far and kept going far beyond what just a machine should do. It was a character in and of itself and Nux death always hits me hard but the War Rig deserves some respect too!
Loved the reaction as well!
Nicholas Hoult was scene stealing thoughout this film. Now, I can't wait to see what he brings to Lex Luther in the new Superman film!!
Nic staring in awe at powerful men (this, The Menu, Renfield) has become my favorite thing he does 🤣🤣🤣 He's gonna be a great Lex, staring up at Supes 🤩
That's what has you on tenterhooks, huh
the Amazon reviews for silver spray paint were hilarious when this movie came out.
This is Mad Max 4. You missed out on 1-3.
WITNESS ME!!!!!
Seeing this in theaters was a treat
Just throwing this out there: the original Mad Max (1979) is very low budget and not very good imo, but the sequel, The Road Warrior (1982), is objectively one of the greatest action/stunt movies ever made, and it was all practical. Besides being the obvious conceptual inspiration, it was also a large source of inspiration for the aesthetic in Fury Road. It's still my favorite Mad Max movie, but the action sequences in this were really well done and I have to admit they've already built quite a world, so I'm excited for the new one.
Fun fact: The actor who plays the main bad guy (Immortan Joe), also played the main bad guy (the Toecutter) in the very first Mad Max film in 1979.
I've been addicted to water my whole life. No plans on stopping either.
YOU WILL RIDE ETERNAL, SHINY AND CHROME!!
