Everything Wrong With Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga In 23 Minutes Or Less

[@PlayerOne.StartGame]

I never once considered why Furiosa had a mechanical arm in Fury Road. What's to wonder about? Look at the world she inhabits. You're lucky to be alive!

[@hilburn-]

I really kind of wish she made it through the whole movie without losing it and just left it ambiguous how it happened. They kept putting her in situations it could happen and then it didn't I was honestly disappointed when she finally lost it

[@williamzinedineh]

@@hilburn- what does this even mean

[@hilburn-]

@@williamzinedineh there were numerous occasions in the movie her arm was specifically at risk - the cannibals eating limbs, under the war rig, a couple of other ones I can't remember currently on top of the sheer commitment option of her having to cut it off herself to hide the start map, prior to her being tied up by her arm. I legitimately thought she'd get to the end of the movie with both arms and they'd just leave it as "something happened between this movie and fury road that lost her arm"

[@jackdorseysdisappointedfather]

This. Literally almost every character has some sort of injury. Who cares about her and her arm specifically???🤷‍♂️

[@BondorianReich]

3:07 the tent flap is sabotaged by Mary so the guy goes outside and she can kill him. Literally happens moments before this part but you somehow missed it

they are a team of writers. so one person missed it and made this joke. the narrator thought it was suitable after also not watching

[@MALØR.34]

I'll be honest, as refreshingly simple and fun as this movie is, a spinoff about Furiosa should have come out a DECADE ago. This is the definition of striking while the iron is ICE COLD.

[@misaelbarrientos4922]

Fury Road came out in 2015 lol

[@TheKingOfAllHorror]

@misaelbarrientos4922 He's not far off, moron. Furiosa should have come out no more than 2 or 3 years after Fury Road, so around 2018 at the latest. It came out 6 - 7 years too late at the least.

[@Dark_Mishra]

Had this movie been set far enough back in the timeline, he possibly could have, but the builds of their bodies, heights and faces are still a bit too different.

17:50 I want to know how she is shifting that bike when she has no hand to pull in the clutch.

[@motoXjake]

roll it down a hill in neutral slam it into gear to get going or electric start it in gear... once your moving you dont need a clutch. Get your rpms close and shift... works in vehicles too.

[@mexicanspec]

@@motoXjake Yes I know but that character doing that is highly unlikely.

[@SpongeBathBill]

One idea: What if it had a foot-operated "rocker clutch" as some models did in the very early days of motorcycling? That would provide the advantage of leaving the left hand free to use a weapon, and is completely plausible considering how heavily customized every single vehicle is. To be clear I don't actually think that was the intent, but if we want to imvent a headcanon explanation after the fact, then maybe that's it.

[@mexicanspec]

@@SpongeBathBill That may have been. I doubt the director had an answer to that question or even thought about it. Cinema Sins didn't even mention it.

[@AaronM-jz8gj]

I love watching this in high school with nothing better to do

[@Waterproofed640]

Still my favorite series

[@motherplayer]

Alas, you may have been a box office failure, but you will always have a strong place in my heart and end of year list, Furiosa. Also, really enjoy for as much as this is made to be a prequel for Furiosa, it also serves as both a showcase for more understanding of the land set up in "Fury Road", the makings of the War Rig, seeing Joe back when he was still a bit levelheaded and even seeing the idea of the wives who, even those who WANT to stay, if they don't met the healthy baby condition within 3 times, they get put to the milkers. It's actually more enjoyable to see how the film livens up the world than it is as a prequel to Furiosa herself.

[@matthewmcanally1198]

What would of made this movie better is that furiosa arm was taken by cannibals during her escape from cannibal town. This would also make sense due to the lack of resources rather than a bullet town.

[@efemete8556]

Great visuals but at the middle I was lost in plot. its like we forgot her origin place

[@LivingFire_BurningFlame]

I think the biggest mistake this movie made was coming out almost a decade after Fury Road's hype had all but dried up. Imagine how much more buzz this film would have gotten if it was released in 2017 or even 2019.

[@motherplayer]

I don't think that's COMPLETELY true. People do still talk well of Fury Road even today, but at the same time, I do agree it would have benefited from coming out earlier.

[@jimb.7523]

Yeah, if it came out a couple years or so after Fury Road, I would've gone out and seen it, but in a post-COVID world (where one of the casualties was the nearest theater at the mall that was a 15 minute walk to get to) a movie really needs to convince me to go out and see it (since the other theater I go to is about a 30-minute drive).

[@gentblue]

I think that this is partially true. There's a massive incel movement now that fought this movie and claimed that Mad Max was cancelled for a woman. The fact that Fury Road was so praised by feminists triggered them into a frenzy! Though prequels rarely do that great at box office.

[@daneg007]

chris hemsworth's accent in this is what an australian accent sounded like back in the early 20th century.

[@matthewrutherford6164]

1:45 that rifle is an sks missing its gas block and piston. It fires 7.62x39 an intermediate cartridge the effective range is within 300 meters after that the ballistics drop like a sack of rocks. Furiousa uses an sks with an arcangel stock that has the piston and everything but still racks the bolt.

[@adaml5166]

10:28 he got out with the rig behind him because he was concerned Furiosa would steal it since he didn’t explain his good intentions yet. So he put himself between her and the rig so she couldn’t pull a fast one on him. Still puts the rig in jeopardy of being attacked/hijacked but yeah that was the reasoning.

[@dustinf11]

It would be basically impossible to ride ride a motorcycle with one arm. One hand works the clutch, one hand works the throttle. Maybe if you rev like crazy and shift into gear, but I doubt it... Though it would spin on the sand... So maybe. I guess I'll try this.

[@fredsalter1915]

[@motoXjake]

[@SpongeBathBill]

Excellent point, but if we tried to invent some headcanon on the spot, maybe it has a foot-operated clutch? In the very, very early days of motorcycling, some models had foot-operated "rocker clutches" (no friction zone, they were either all the way engaged or all the way disengaged, like a lightswitch). With how highly customized every single vehicle is, it's plausible that some mechanic made this change - perhaps to leave the left hand free to use a weapon? That would be a solid reason. To be clear, I don't actually believe this was the intent, just one possible explanation if we want to be forgiving.

[@motoXjake]

@@SpongeBathBill i prefer my solution.

[@merrychristmas922]

furiosa is a textbook example of why not make a movie about a character's past. Everything we needed to know about furiosa was in fury road. really, we didn't need to see her lose her arm and stuff.

[@thisbubblygoodness7611]

Better Call Saul would like to have a chat, a prequel show that's also one of the best pieces of modern literature despite already knowing the main character will become a con-artist lawyer for a meth-making kingpin. George Miller always had plans to do a Furiosa film even before shooting Fury Road back in 2014, its called proper 'world building', not some half-assed thought that came to him a year ago. Yes we know Furiosa will live and lose an arm, but thats about it, the world, the vehicles, the score, the cinematography is some of the best in the Mad Max series so far, and thats more then enough reason for why this film is incredible in my opinion, it sticks to what made Mad Max so great, a simple predictable story that's lovingly crafted in a car-worshiping wasteland world with superb stunts and action
