Furiosa - Let Me Explain (A Mad Max Saga)

[@LoudAngryJerk]

I like how there's all this backlash for this movie not doing well, but anyone who actually sees the movie has almost nothing but good things to say about it

[@crimsonvonkosplay8967]

LITERALLY

[@darthgamer6239]

Allow me to share my criticism then: I personally thought the movie was a bit rushed it really felt like things shorta just happened and it's bec we are spanning like 19 years throughout the movie I would have liked to see more of the bullet farm or Gastown etc I think the movie should have actually been longer like 3 hours or just be turned into a limited series I genuinely would have watched chapter if it was it's own 2 hour movie

[@alpha_berchermuesli5975]

we haven't watched the same film then

[@LoudAngryJerk]

@@alpha_berchermuesli5975 to be clear I'm not saying it's a perfect movie. I'm talking about people dunking on this film who clearly have never seen it, and for reasons that don't really apply. Legitimate criticism is one thing. Claiming nobody wanted this- when they did; or that it doing bad because of a rejection of some kind of agenda beyond that tickets now are insanely more expensive, that is not.

[@genghiskengmail]

Maybe not enough people are watching it despite being a good movie. I liked it but there were 10 people in the cinema on a sat night in the main big screen of my town. I booked online and 80% of seats were available fri and sat night. I was expecting it to be packed.

[@originaozz]

THIS is revenge film done right. Most Hollywood films misunderstand that for vengeance to be satisfying it must be about the kill. She literally turned the root of her sadness into a fruitful tree.

[@worsethanhitlerpt.2539]

This movie is good but I can see how the baggage can cloud peoples opinion of it. I find myself struggling to see it as a MOVIE rather than "Mad Max Lite"

[@KingOfMadCows]

I like how Dementus is a mirror of Immortan Joe. Dementus is chaos and conquest, Joe is order and tyranny. Dementus is obsessed with seeking sensation and living in the moment. Joe is obsessed with leaving behind a legacy. Dementus mirrors Max too. They both lost their families. Max became a lone road warrior, Dementus became a charismatic cult leader. Also, Furiosa tattooing the map to her home on the arm she eventually loses was a great idea. And she sacrifices her arm when Jack is killed. She's losing the person she cares about and she has to give up her way home.

[@jonfreeman9682]

That's a nice setup leading to Fury Road where she tries to get home but don't know how without a map.

[@Cutie3.1415]

@@jonfreeman9682 i thought about that too but i figure if shes been looking at her arm for 15 years she would remember

[@MrGeekFreek]

There was a moment between 2 War Boys that I liked. During the first truck chase 2 War Boys are burned by a flamethrower. Just before they die the one boy crawls to his buddy, sprays the silver in both their mouths, they hug, pull a rope launching them in the air, sacrificing themselves and taking out a couple of parachute guys.

[@fearnloathingingeneral]

@@BirbieLittlewing it's supposed to be an inhalant that they're getting high from which helps in a moment of kamikrazee (kamikaze suicide) to do whatever it takes to be Witnessed by the great Immortans in Valhalla. But I love the theory that's it's them really just huffing silver spray paint that Joe said was something more.

Whatever is said about Furiosa, whatever narratives about "Girlbossing" too much or being the end of George Miller or another stake in the chips that is "The end of movie theaters" when it possibly underperforms, I am very appreciative that it exist, still is just as insane as ever, and giving us the thrill of seeing Chris Helmsworth just yuck it up as the big baddie.

@@slebsnapz7868 No it’s canon from the game. Max and other Wastelanders are forced to farm maggots from corpses because they’re high in protein and there’s not much else to eat. The old lady in the film was a maggot farmer and thought Furiosa was dying, hence her saying she’ll “make it nice” for her. She’s meaning she’ll make her passing as gentle as possible.

[@Concepcion30]

I think I read on a wiki that Furiosa became one of the wives and only after she was proven to be barren then she got to do other stuff that lead to eventually driving the war rig. I can see the movie decided not to touch on that at all. She had rapport and sympathy with the wives as she was from the green place of the many mothers anyway without having to bond with them over their shared misery.

[@3rdtimesthecharm376]

Clarification: Max didn’t help Furious gwt out of the desert. The Old Wretch Woman dragged her into the warrens beneath the Citadel, aka The Maggot Farm, thinking her a corpse. When she tries to get Furiosa to stay with her, it isn’t out of a benevolent sense of chatity, but a delusion: she thinks Furious is dead, and want her to stay dead so she can be at peace- and provide the maggots she and the other Wretched eat a place to feed.

To answer your question about Immortan Joe's 3rd son - the actor died a few years ago. No reason you need to know this - except you bring it up like it's an unaddressed missing piece twice. The actor who played Joe also passed away, but he is easier to recast.

[@lazyquahog9385]

OG Bullet Farmer too

[@zevfnt]

sorry, i do understand what you mean as in easier in comparison to recasting the 3rd son, for obvious reasons, but are you saying the first actor for immortan didnt bring much to the character because the costume and voice does the acting, or just the first thing i said?

[@zevfnt]

because if you also agree with the second part, i would have to disagree, hugh keays-bryne was a very good actor, i wasnt a big fan of the new actors potrayal, i dont think it gave hugh's character justice

Not entirely true, they all died between 2018 and 2024, so way before or after the pandemic. Only one, Hugh Keays-Byrne aka Toe Cutter / Immortan Joe, died in 2020 during Covid peak and it was unrelated to the virus. It's even in the video at 17:12 in the credit scene.

Isn't it odd that Immortan didn't went crazy looking for the disappeared Little D? I also thought the Teddy Bear would provoke something to Dementus, or he would say something about it.
