Its one of the most impressive films I have ever seen. I was absolutely transfixed for every minute. I cannot fathom how the filmmakers have the combined technical skill and creativity to make such a masterpiece. Both Fury Road and Furiosa are pinnacles of cinematic story telling. I am astounded and grateful I have gotten to experience the horror, excitement, comedy and drama of Fury Road and Furiosa.

he was not sacrificing his own men. they were the men of the rival gang he had allied with. This other gang broke off from him and were attacking Furiosa's truck later on

[@dshock85]

I think it was a great film and more grounded film wise ....relatively speaking. It kept me awake and interested through out. Many films these days have moments that put me to sleep. Even many Marvel film. Miller did a great job and one of the perfect elements with this was the sound design and sound track. The rhythmic drumming incessantly playing in the background kept the tension high through out. It gave us a look at the set up and distribution network between the bullet farm and Gastown. So in the next one there is the question of who took over those other places. The citadel needs the gas to pump the water. So she would have had to go reclaim those places. Maybe the mining at the bullet farm re purposed for something else. It would be nice to see more expansion to the wasteland.

[@SteelShirt99]

I thought it as just me that felt like the entire film barring a few sequences had a constant rhythmic bass drum/bass synth deep and low in the background

Furiosa is a masterpiece my favorite this year that something because dune 2 was superb as well i just love the action ,and energy of these mad movie im hoping alien romulus turns out to be just as epic as well ,and 2024 is shaping up to being the best year for cinema in a long time.

Mad Max's appearance in this movie is important because he was the one who saved Furiosa when she fainted on the ground, half dead.

[@OKayMMusic]

That’s what I assumed but not seeing anyone else say this online. Are you pretty confident in this guess? You’d think this plot point would be pretty big news.

@@OKayMMusic I am, I have seen it twice. In that short scene, the Citadel is far away, and nobody from other people is nearby. In the next shot, she is laying down in a car, and the sound of the car engine can be heard :)

@@Mad_Max_World cool thanks! Just rewatched Fury Road. That’s twice Max has saved her ass! Lol.

At first, I assumed that too, but after a little reflexion, I kinda remembered Max saw the citadel for the first time in his capture in Fury Road, so that didn't quite add up. Oh well, a mini plot hole doesn't prevent me to enjoy these 2 masterpieces. After Furiosa's end credits, now I have to rewatch Fury Road

I wouldn’t blame anyone if they said they preferred this over Fury Road! That’s how great I thought it was! SPOILERS Also, when was Max’s Road Warrior moniker passed around as a title? Furiosa’s stoic love interest here Praetorian Jack and even herself are considered as ‘Road Warriors’, Jack even having a resemblance in his suit and shoulder pad as Max!

NUX ORIGIN STORY LETS GO 🔥😵

[@MrTway88]

Why in the end did Furiosa not return to the green place? I don't buy she didn't know the way due to her arm being cut off. Since the map was on her arm since childhood, you'd think she'd know it by heart.

4 call backs I noticed: Furiosa blows a boatswain's pipe just like the one Max has in Thunderdome (too bad it didn't have the same effect it did on Blaster), a war boy on the war rig is on fire in the same pose and acts similarly to Blackfinger in the same situation from Mad Max 2, Dementus's leg is braced similarly to Max, Furiosa gets a sawed off shotgun similar to Max except hers works.

Everybody's forgetting about the other lady that was with furiosus Mom at the beginning they showed her again in the tunnels when they was trying to pull furiosa in the ground in the cage at the citadel

[@courtneylinn3465]

I think Furiosa using the seed to plant a tree out of Dementus was more symbolic of her not falling into the revenge trap that she did. It was, however, a double-edged sword. Yes, incredibly painful and gross, but instead of killing him she chose to grow something from him, not giving him a quick death that he didn’t care about. he said he was dead already. So to avoid becoming just like him, she didn’t kill him, but still punished him with the greatest outcome for all. Sick and twisted and deep.

other than "plot reasons, cause P-Jack can't survive", I didn't understand Jack's action in Bullet farm - rig is ambushed, furiosa and 1 car is trapped outside the gate - warboys are killed, but furiosa and jack kill all the one's ambushing on foot. - a truck with more ambushers ride up and pin furiosa to the gate with flamethrower - jack reverses the rig, destroys this truck, and blocks the gate with the rig Jack could have ran thru the gate, joined furiosa and escaped. Dementus and the rest of his crew are still nowhere to be seen here, and still hiding deep in the mine the rig is also blocking the gate so Dementus will have a harder time ramming thru. why did Jack shoot the green flare, get in the truck, and charge into the mine. what was his plan? because it seems like all it did was give dementus time to assemble the rest of his crew, as well as clear the gate, so dementus can ram it down
