I think one of my favorite things about Fury Road is that, even after their pretty even fight when they first met, there never feels like there's much tension between Max and Furiosa. It might just be that threats to their life take priority, but they have no problems working together almost immediately. I especially like the scene when Max is trying to snipe but doesn't want to waste their last bullet, so he gives it to Furiosa who already demonstrated she's really good with that rifle. He never gives the sense of "I need to be the one to save us" that some other male heroes tend to give off.

Another detail that you missed, when the Glock's magazine is ejected, you see the rounds inside, they are straight up lead slugs. Because by this time most ammunition is extremely hard to find, and plating bullets is difficult. So the Bullet Farm is just a massive reloading facility which forms it's own bullets from straight lead, which in the comics works perfectly because Bullet Farm is built on an abandoned Lead Mine.

[@Zombiewithabowtie]

It also adds detail in a further scene: when the Bullet Farmer starts going after Max, Furiosa and the Wives in the Bog, using his tracked transport, he is very clearly shown pulling one of his own teeth and loading it I to a gun. Ingesting lead (which you would definitely do if you had dentures made from it) is notorious for affecting mental health, and might have influenced his reckless behaviours after being blinded.

One thing that I love as well, is that Furiosa clearly cared about the War Rig crew, there's a shot with a tear on her face as she sees some of them die, and the music that's playing as she drives the last car into the funnel is showing that they are human lives and worthy of acknowledging, but also that the girls that she's trying to protect are her priority

[@BoxOKittens]

Personally I always thought Furiosa was stolen with her mother to be "wives" to Joe, but her mother probably tried to escape and was killed, like Furiosa says, and Furiosa herself was either unable to get pregnant or carry to full term, and so was turned free to the outside, where she worked her way to the top of being a respected member of Joe's forces. It makes her vengeful "remember me" at the end make perfect sense.

Can I just mention how much I love the fight between Furiosa and Max at the beginning? It's shot amazingly, the characters are both using everything at their disposal, there's some genuine tension even after watching it for the fifth time and my favourite thing: It's not weird about having female characters. Whether you consciously notice it or not you're shown that Max is kind of different from your usual action movie protagonist. When coming across a bunch of scantily clad supermodels in the desert he doesn't really care, he just wants the water. There's no moment of some kind of "My goodness I must protect these poor women!" there's just him trying to get the water. And the fight at the start doesn't have some stupid weird sexual tension, Furiosa doesn't pull a Black Widow and judo flip him by wrapping her legs around his head (seriously, that specific move is oddly prevalent with female characters in action movies), it's just two people trying to murder each other in a desert. It's wonderful. Which is an odd thing to say about two people trying to murder each other in the desert.

it makes sense in theory why women would do that move a lot: not that i'm a judo expert or anything, but it logically follows that if your opponent is bigger than you and has substantially more muscle mass, one of the best ways to take them down is by literally _taking them down_ to the ground and choking them. since you're a lady and fighting someone bigger and stronger than you, you'd want to throw all of your weight into destabilizing them, and choking them at the same time. so you tie yourself to their neck to knock them off balance, and then WHIP into the ground as hard as possible to attempt a knockout, then you choke them with your legs to ensure they can't reach your weak point(your head). i could be completely wrong about this, it's just a thought.

The more evil and deserving of punishment an evil character is, the more visceralness I can tolerate in a film when its happening to them, because then I *want* to watch something awful happen to them. But if a movie is just a horror gorefest doled out left and right to everyone in the way, I can't stomach it. It ceases to be interesting as a film and just becomes a "well how messy can we make every moment and how much effort can we dedicate to making an audience feel ill", and there's already genres for that. Like, when I was young Saving Private Ryan was a fav growing up, but if every single action movie defaulted to being as messy as that, I think I'd dislike a whole lot more of them because it would feel so forced having to watch every character blow up and get dismembered in a different way. And it's traumatizing when it happens to your favorite characters (god like I hate GoT its pure sadistic misery), sometimes we don't need movies to have to face every consequence reality does. Sometimes it's good to have a stylized fiction break that doesn't rattle your nerves every scene, Fury Road is intense and full of action enough. And who knows if the sequels if they ever happen will ratchet up the intensity?

Hell! You can even see it in action, if you listen closely when the door wagon slowly down, the guitar guy also slows down his rhythm as a way to say "slow down!"

@@TheAzCorner Yeah I think they done it purposely to give you the impression that it is alive and as much of a character as the rest of the cast. Like when it’s destroyed it’s not just the death of a war boy and a truck but the death of their home that they’ve made this journey on.

Also I love that the soft, dreamy slow-mo focus when he sees the Wives isn’t on their bodies, but on the water instead.

[@robocow1865]

I always loved that hanging onto a door was how Splendid saved Furiosa's life and also was partly the cause of her death later on. It's almost like it cements this thought in the viewer moving forward that no idea could work more than once and not end badly the second time around.

[@Meadras]

I never found the Doof Wagon to be over-the-top. It makes perfect sense. You're out driving in the desert with no radios. Having a sound vehicle as focal point for your convoy helps coordinate and send instructions, and it motivates your people. Your musician is like a battle standard that everyone rallies behind. Try taking a multi-day road trip with no music and you'll understand

[@cameronjohnson4936]

Man, the way you highlighted the focal point shifts was so clear. It made an unbelievable amount of sense

[@thingusbingus8181]

17:13 I've always thought that when she slipped off Max didn't see her go under the wheels and only said so because going back to get her when Immortan Joe is so close behind would be suicide, and I think the look at Furiosa and her look back is a silent conversation about it. She comes to the same conclusion, "if we go back for her this will all be for nothing." Better to lose one of them than to lose all of them

[@eyesears9748]

The great thing about that scene is that it's 100% feasible to read it both ways. It's totally likely that Max maybe didn't KNOW that Angharad was dead, but he knew better than to go back on the off-chance that she survived. It's too great a risk for no guaranteed success. But the other reading of it is that Max's wife and child died the exact same way, so he knows that it's very unlikely she survived. Both explanations hinge on Max's experience, both as someone who has seen death and as someone who's learned how to cheat it.

[@ChrisTay229]

One thing I love about the rock rider chase is when they cover the war rig in sand to put out the fire, and when it clears away the rig sounds like it's taking a breath, as if it's a character of its own

[@bebop_557]

I can't be the only one who feels half the appeal of these videos is just seeing the insane effort and attention this guy puts into his videos. So good!

[@adampoll4977]

The understated and almost "blink and you'll miss it" world-building is amazing in this film. All the explanations of how the world works are SHOWN rather than explained.

[@2manarmyproductions]

Always loved that Nux spins his car around in reverse during the first big action scene and all of the action is shot towards the back of the war rig so the audience doesn't see the sandstorm coming before the reveal.

[@SloweBro99]

The way this channel notes so many details and talks about them in such a professional way makes CinemaSins look like kiddy play

[@Gledster]

I saw Fury Road in the cinema and honestly don't think I exhaled for the entire run time. When the end credits finally hit and I could finally breathe I was spent. What an amazing film.

[@hurricaneofcats]

This movie was probably one of the best theater watching experiences I've ever had.

I remember going to the movie theater to watch this movie, having no idea that I was going to be bestowed this colossus of a film. Never have my standards for an action movie lowered ever since my eyes were blessed with this masterpiece.

[@McWerp]

I think it may be one of my all time favourite theatre experiences. This movie had no right to be decent, nevermind good. I went in with zero expectations. Now I think its the best movie of the century.

[@SharkDeschain]

Same here. My mom and I went to go see some movie, I can't remember what. But all that was left for that were some pretty crappy seats, so we decided on this one. Best decision ever.

I think I great point that was missed was that on Nux and Slit's vehicle you can see the Gyro Captain's Skull, Glasses, and Head Wear on the central spike

[@nobleherring3059]

The entire Brothers in Arms scene comes together in so many amazing ways, and one of my favorites is the sound design. With the score pumping in the background, that simple breathing sound as the war rig's dozer extinguishes the fire sticks with me like a burr

[@kitsunemetal]

I couldn't stop laughing at the warboy yelling witness while falling out the door i never noticed that.

You honestly love it when the choir in the intro matches with any accompanied music in the movie's title card. Good for you, CinemaWins. Good for you. (Music) Win Counter: +1

[@georgewilliamson5667]

Another interesting thing I thought of concerning the War Boys being all white. One, like you said, its so they can match Immortan Joe and it makes him seem less weak, but I always figured there was a practical purpose to it as well. White is reflective, and would help keep sunlight off of you. In a massive never ending desert where the sun is always pounding, being all white without exposing your actual skin would probably help to reflect some of that heat and intensity from the sun.

[@expendableindigo9639]

He didn’t mention the lizard at the beginning being two-headed either, connecting to the nuclear montage.

[@MyScorpion42]

Never noticed that Angharad slipped due to the blood. That is so sad, and also well thought out on the filmmakers' side.

[@dangermonkeygostones]

The door comes off the vehicle because it was damaged in Furiosa's fight with the Buzzards, and possibly again when Nux fires the shotgun. So yes, Max is to blame for her wound, but in the end I'd say that all the major characters end up having a role in Angharad's death.

[@vdnf321]

I actually studied this movie in Film studies and I went from enjoying it to absolutely loving it. It was great to hear someone mention the action tracking across the screen. I wrote a whole assignment on that alone and the Rock Riders sequence is a great example to show people. The focus on the action is consistent throughout the whole movie and really helps the viewer connect more. It can turn what is otherwise a very noisy and hard to follow action sequence that would normally need some breathing room after it into a very cohesive and gripping sequence. 5 star review all round. And for any one who already loves this movie I would definitely recommend checking out the Black and Chrome version. It's a whole new experience

[@GoldenMan1002]

My favorite moment is when they drop the cow plow thing to kick up dirt to put out the fire and with the score I can feel the War Rig holding it's breathe in hope then the dirt dies down and the vents open and it sounds just like it's taking a breath like the way a diver breathes after straining their body and lungs to reach the other side and the music picks up and yes the War Rig has its second wind!

[@BigBossBernie]

Added bonus of the mentioned shot-transiion (14:55 onwards) - since it seems Furiosa and the Rockriders are both moving towards the center, it is not only the focus on action moving fluidly, it also creates a sense of immediacy as both parties are racing each other. As always, I highly enjoyed your work, thanks and stay safe :)

Also! Re: the win at 16:50, it’s actually likely that Dag deliberately pretended to struggle with the bolt cutters when she was trying to free Max, in order to distract him and give Furiosa time to ambush him. Note how she didn’t struggle in the same way to clip off Cheedo’s chastity belt. When Capable and Angharad have to work together to use the cutters, it makes sense because of the difficult angle they’re working in.
