The Hollywood Masters: George Miller on Stanley Kubrick

[@JohnSmith-wj7ge]

It was nice of George to dress as Dr Strangelove for the occasion.

[@PanGrotto]

he's always dressed like that.

[@jiggajigjones8210]

John Smith haha

[@plasticweapon]

the joke would look better if he looked remotely like him.

[@agi2160]

@@plasticweapon I can't stand jokes that don't look good.

Miller is one of those filmmakers who really needs to be given more credit. The original Mad Max for me is one of the best Hollywood success stories I can think of. The idea that this doctor from Melbourne with his own money went out and shot a movie like that and became a sensation around the world is inspiring to me.

[@EisforEvil]

+L Pendergast I feel like he hasn't done enough work to be given more credit.

[@ambientaddict7613]

He was shown recognition by his ocars wins in his recent mad max film. Which is definitely deserved!! He should've gotten something for the originals. Not to mention influencing other directors that wanted to make a debut in the action genre.

[@Mario_Malatesta]

+Clarke Wolf well let's be honest, he should've won best director. And I love Inarritu.

[@Theomite]

I think it's that middle and latter-day film career that has diluted his recognition. When you have two decades of making family and animated films, the significant works tend to look like outliers rather than true expressions. Miller wasn't treated well by Hollywood and had they indulged him more and not fought him, his career would've been more decorated and celebrated.

[@medicinaldankog6791]

apparently all the carnage with the injuries he saw as a doctor and then put in his films. idk i think its cool

[@LowenKM]

And all the more incredible that this was the same creative genius behind *_both_* the totally bonkers Mad Max, and the completely charming Babe!

[@schnarchei6572]

"Babe" was directed by Chris Noonan, but written and produced by George Miller. The second one, "Babe, Pig in the City" was all Miller.

[@DelightLovesMovies]

I love George Miller. He always seems so sweet and kind during the interviews I've seen him in, and could listen to him talk about films all day.

[@Lee_Forre]

First time I've watched an interview that Galloway didn't interrupt the majority of answers given. Fantastic and fascinating interview.

[@FloydPink23]

Think it probably shows it's more the editing of THR and the time limits than him as an interviewer. I wish they'd just release the full footage from those roundtables

[@MrFakNo]

I love how he asked the question and then proceeded to answer it for him.

[@WallKenshiro]

Kubrick was so far ahead of his time that he invented searching for KZbin reviews decades before KZbin was invented.

[@sangeovr]

How

[@DendelionBlu]

@@sangeovr :D Did you not hear the interview?? :D

[@kshitijnikam]

Please upload the full episode soon LMU! pleasssss. Thank you :)

[@Whisky_Tango_Foxtrot-jc5uq]

Mad Max Fury Road is proof that this guy never slowed down, he only evolved and mastered his craft. The original Mad Max and The Road Warrior are two timeless masterpieces. 👌

[@sclogse1]

If George ever wanted to represent the manufacturer of that leather jacket he's been wearing for every interview, it could pay for the next film's catering. Why no one has ever asked to see what the label is after all this time is baffling. Even without George showing it, you'd think the designer/manufacturer would have made a play by now...

[@Carboxylated]

Ahhh good old GMiller! His keen attention to landscape is the reason why MadMax (new and Old) are so good. he makes you understand the scope and range of his storytelling by SIZE. Also he knows how to play a good "fuse" to move a story. He tells stories like they are a lit fuse to a piece of TNT. You know something fucking HUGE is about to happen but you just do not know quite how it will. Something Kubrick only did in Spartacus...he came close in BLyndon and FMJ but the grand scope of the cinematic element....Miller knew much much better. Kubrick may be the best storyteller ever to make films but Miller knows how to SHOW the SCALE of the event at hand. If these two made a film together I feel it would be EPIC!

[@Jcushing5]

Mad Max 1 is a flat-out work of art. The camera is always moving, the shots are constantly interestingly composed. The editing is superb, it's riveting but beautifully made. For me personally, he rapidly lost that intensity with subsequent films, but who cares.

[@thegrievancegordieshow9882]

Stanley Kubrick getting reviews of books from various people is the equivalent to using the Internet today He wanted a variety of takes on the same information that his own biased mind might possibly overlook some subtle detail bringing an element beyond his own knowledge

[@iwanromanow6038]

Sound is shit.. but the interview is insightful and a joy to watch.

[@MoeGreensRightEye]

I want him to make Babe the lead in his next Mad Max movie

[@FigmentSALabel]

Yes, that ticks all the boxes. Mad Max: Pigs Might Fly!

[@peekaboopeekaboo1165]

@@FigmentSALabel. Mad Max got a new pet companion. It's Babe.

[@jffsmth330]

Interesting that the the shots achieved in Mad Max 2 (aka The Road Warrior) which are still some of the most visceral ever captured, were more the work of Byron Kennedy; the character development was more overseen by Miller.

[@karanvirkooner1993]

for me personally Stanley Kubrick Alfred Hitchcock Sergio Leone Brian de Palma John Carpenter David Cronenberg Wes Craven David Fincher John Landis Dario Argento George A.Romero David Lynch and Tobe Hooper are the most influential on me

[@grantmcgowan8399]

Imagine if George Miller were to make a Star Wars movie... I think that would rock!

[@TheStockwell]

I'd rather he not waste his energy on a genre meant as simple, hyper-expensive, escapist entertainment. That's like wishing David Lynch would do something for Disney.

[@greyeyed123]

I thought they were alone. It scared me a little in the last shot when an entire audience is there watching them talk, lol. Creepy.

[@AdventuresofAnandRutwick]

George is so sorted...

Very good summary of Film School. Thanks. mom

[@MrCrispian]

miller is a genius...yet he fell into the trap of first film being Xcert the second 15cert and the third a PG....it was probably the studio..the story he recount about KUBRICK reminds me of a cult Bogart movie"IN A LONLEY PLACE"
