Mad Max 2 Vs Mad Max 2015

[guest]

Apparently people think Mad Max 2015 is better than Mad Max 2. I can't remember the 2015 one, other than this faggot who everyone loved:

Fury Road was a reboot. Miller and Theron themselves confirmed this in interviews. As far as reboots go, it did it's job well - it introduced the character and the world to a new generation in a perfunctory manner, liberated of having to adhere to the continuity of the previous series. I think of it as an alternate MM2 - as if this is what would've happened had Max gone in the opposite direction after dealing with Johnny the Boy in MM1.

Having said that, MM2 is superior to FR, and always will be. It's not just iconic, it's the archetype. The world, the cars, the stunts - nobody had ever attempted anything like that in the movies before. It was all at once familiar and innovative; dystopian yet hopeful. I enjoy FR enough, but I don't think that time will be as kind to it as it was to MM2. Reddit fags are losing their shit about it only because they never saw the original trilogy. FR basically combines elements of both MM2 and Thunderdome - both of which are superior movies.

I think it’s better than 3. But not 2. Lord Humongus was an epic foe. It was good, 2015 aka Mad Max: Fury Road. Had a lot of really good action sequences and of course with the advances in technology everything looked crisper and smoother. But it’s not better than The Road Warrior. At least not from a storyline standpoint.

I’d rank them
Mad Max
The Road Warrior
Fury Road
Beyond Thunderdome

Fury Road was better

It used the budget correctly, it had practical stunts like no other recent movie I can remember (pole walkers werent cgi, they thought they would have too but the stunt dudes showed them that they could do it for real)

I recently re watched the first two, havent seen fury road since it came out

but it was better, didnt even care about the woke women shit

not that the first two werent awesome, i actually like the first one more than the second, havent seen the third

The First one definitely sets a good frame of a series, also I think Max reaches peak masculinity at the end of it. Not to say Mel wasn’t the man in the other two he did or that Tom Hardy wasn’t bad ass in FR. But when he hunts down Toecutter and his cunt brigade and takes em out, in revenge for Jessie, Sprog and Goose, it’s good shit.

I liked it.

I think the tom hardys madmax was pretty autistic he didn't talk the whole movie

I heard some criticism about FR recently, I don't know where, saying Charlize Theron was some kind of forced gender equity female hero character. A few scenes were obnoxious "I'm am woman, hear me roar", but overall I didn't get that watching it. Maybe it's cause I had a 7.1 channel surround situation when I watched it, but I thought the movie was fucking great

i saw an interview with Miller talking about FR a bit after its release and he was talking about how a great action movie should be able to be comprehended without audio. He put that into practice imo in FR and it's no less a great flick than MM2

I agree with you. I actually really enjoy FR, I just MM2 more. A lot of that is simply the passage of time - MM2 has survived 40 years, and is still rewatchable. Only time will truly tell if FR holds up as well (don't get me wrong - I truly think that it will. I just hate how Reddit fags instantly started slapping labels like "classic" and "best movie of all time" on movies as soon as they came out around the time Dark Knight came out. Time determines these qualifiers, not Reddit fags).

Having said that, I have zero interest in the Furiosa prequel.

Fury Road was my favorite Mad Max. An easy way to tell that somebody doesn't know what the fuck they are talking about, is if they criticize Fury Road for "not being about Max". Every other movie in the series isn't really about Max except the first one, and that was only after the halfway point of the movie.

 

[Chapel]

Never watched Furry Road. St Mel is Mad Max and fuck any feminist Cuck director who replaces him

 

[Cuphead]

The Road Warrior is the best one, but I still really liked Furry Road. Even with the forced feminist bullshit.

Max is the outside character coming into the narrative. He plays a role in it, but he's not the cause of it.

Wasn’t it said that the Mad Max movies are less a strict history and more a series of legends/tall tales about one man?

Fury Road and Blade Runner 2049 are both pretty fucking good IMHO.

 

[Chapel]

Fuck Fury road, I’d have paid good money to watch footage of Mel Gibson not putting up with Millers feminist shit on set and then starting on Charlize Theron

 

[guest]

It's funny watching the first one these days. It's still such a simple, great movie and it's interesting to see Mel develop. For most of the movie, he's got that innate charisma and presence but it's not till the last 15/20 minutes or so that he shows that Mel movie star x factor, when he becomes Mad Max. Easy to forget that it was made 8 years before he really broke the States with LW1. He still didn't quite have that swagger yet, just a lot of raw potential.

 

[Chive Turkey]

Fury Road is a well-crafted action movie that blows 99% of modern shit out of the water but you can't really compare it to the older stuff. Those were more grounded and less flashy but also had way stronger plots and characters, which were both really barebones in FR.

I like both tbh, they're just different.

 

[Jim-sucks-shit]

Liking the originals more is perfectly fine but if you don't like Fury Road then you're a faggot. And if you think it's a feminist movie then you're probably an autistic virgin faggot.
