Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior - Caravan of Garbage 

But think of all the likes we'd have to leave to make it financially viable, we'd never recover

Seconded.

I'm already dead

Hard agree

Do it

Name checks out.

Blue Harvest...

can you upload soon?

Love your channel

Thank you for that interessting piece of trivia.

I remember my dad telling me this when i was a kid

@@boccciEvery Australian kid was told this adage growing up.

I didn’t expect to see Mick Molloy either, but here we are

I was worried because this one is mostly set in the desert that they wouldn’t pull it off but these bloody larrikin’s pulled it off!

Actually my favorite part comes two seconds after that, with the arrow pointing to the stick (of course Mel Gibson would first need a gyro to reach that stick).

Snakes are un-sprung Gyros when you think about it.....

I made chicken gyros last night. Very delicious. Turns out lemon rice is very easy to make too. It's just rice, and butter, and chicken stock and... I forgot the last ingredient.

I have learned so much about Australia from this channel. It's glorious. :)

I'm Australian and even I don't know as much about it as they do

Quite true.

I love when they go heavily into super Aussie stuff while giggling about alienating what they know is a healthy sized American audience.

Somewhat popular transition at the time. Very similar to Alien and Aliens and somewhat similar to T1 and T2.

Now that's a take I can get behind. It's not which is preferred, it's that they have their own competent styles to appreciate.

@@adamseidel9780 Call me crazy, but I always thought that T1 and T2 were VERY similar to one another. There was also a decade between films (both in, and outside of, story) so things were just bound to be different the second time around. Like Arnold's hairdo, for one thing.

@@boccci I'd be careful with that, we also got Ghostbusters II around the time...or all the Police Academys

​@@jacob4920 T1 is very much a horror movie with an emphasis on the love story, while T2 is solidly action and leans more into the sci-fi.

I've just realized I know far too much about Australia between James and Mason, and my favourite podcast "Mysterious Universe". The hosts, Ben and Aaron, are hilarious Aussies and love to trash talk their country (with love of course). It's always a good time when they talk about the great Emu war.

Here’s a couple for you, fellas; Did you know that Australians can hold their breath longer people from any other country? And did you know that 1 in 12 Aussies can fly? True stories. D

wait where does shayne appear?? LMAO i didn't catch him

There's a moment where they mention crazy reddit stories and he pops in for just a second 💀 the youtube crossover that I never knew I needed.

Possibly the greatest quote in the history of the written word.

These aussie boys are true wordsmiths.

@@chriswho4232Ben is a smosh fan! They’ve included smosh clips in a bunch of the edits.

Just like the classic Australian adage, “if it can’t be solved with a stick or a brick, it can’t be solved”

The equivalent US adage being, of course, "if you can't duck it, f*ck it."

Real shame to see a good boy fall so far...

Honestly, I think his cancellation was bullshit. He's part heeler! He's allowed to use the hard arf! Damn woke police...

Awful bloke, and I was a fan

Check out Letterkenny lol

don’t think euphemism is right word, its just slang. “punching”is the act of smoking and then usually followed by the smoking product lol, for example, “punching cones”, which is just “smoking a bong” 😂and “cones” being what americans call a “bowl”.., but yea alot of people call cigarettes “darts” or “durries” here in australia, and usually said by the bogans or people saying it ironically.

​@@liamfrr not quite but close, American are talking about joints when talking about cones, particularly the conical shaped ones. When they say bowl, they're usually referring to a bong or a pipe. Other than that you were spot on with silly American smoker slang

'Darts' are also an accepted form of currency in Australia, ie "Giz a dart an' I won't break ya face".

You need more letterkenny in your life. Nothing like a sun dart.

Bravo

Revenge of the Jedi was Blue Harvest, mate. Star Wars was an unknown quantity during the time of it's filming, being the first.

The Andy samberg movie?

@@Malum09he could be talking about the other Hot Rod movie that came out in 2007

Well if they can't solve the water crisis and the GSL dries up you'll be living it.

Isn't that just Utah though?

Or the idea that Max isn't the main character when he's basically just been a passenger on someone else's tale since The Road Warrior.

Tom Hardy is a great actor without even saying any words.

You think Mel Gibson had few lines in MM2? You should watch the US release of MM1. He can’t be heard saying a single word

Youve triggered my Long-Rant Trap Card. Fury Road's opening weekend was a PERFECT microcosm of how Woke Hollywood makes movies worse -- and how Non-Woke directors can actually create using feminist themes WITHOUT ruining their movies. Fury Road is a deeply "Feminist" movie, but it IS NOT a "Woke" movie. I remember going into the theater to watch Fury Road knowing that on opening weekend they had gotten trounced by "Pitch Perfect 2", which was in very the next theater over. "Pitch Perfect 2" is a "Woke" movie. It featured the song "Run The World" by Beyoncé, which is an incredibly popular, dumb, and extremely toxic song about how, supposedly, "girls run the world"... even though girls are CONSTANTLY complaining about definitively NOT running the world. I remember sitting there, watching this INCREDIBLE masterpiece of a movie all about women finding their power, doing incredible things, fighting a literal Patriarch, and thinking "THIS is what Feminism is about. This is what female empowerment looks like. This is the movies those teenage girls should be watching, not some spoiled millionaire musician bragging about how rich she is. Not some hateful song about how we're here to push men out of the picture."

@@twelvecatsinatrenchcoat Quick reminder that the term "Woke" has exactly zero meaning because it's been co-opted by chuds who use it to refer to anything they don't like. Hopefully that didn't impact your rant that I didn't bother to read, because why would anyone?

They sure did , but it was mostly too raunchy to even be on TV before 10pm!! Seeing now what I saw as a kid... man those jokes and lewd comments are all over the place.

There is a lot of feral children in Beyond Thunderdome. Any one of those could be the Max in Fury Road. There is a similar theory about James Bond just being a codename but the official cannon is that it's always the same guy and he goes around telling everyone his real name.

The same thing that happened to the Max himself. The pillars of society kept on crumbling, Max as one of the last and best of the Bronze now descending into his own madness. The Bronze disbands without Max or Goose, I could see Mcaffee eventually leading his own tribe in the Wasteland. Humongous actually seems honorable if anything, which would scan with Macaffee still trying to have some sense of law and justice in this broken world.

and Saw!

Damn it inspired fallout and JoJo and borderlands? That's cool and shocking!! Was not expecting that

Or if Jason Momoa's Aquaman was inspired by Home and Away

​​I thought it was understood that mad max was one of those cultural touchstones that put it's bits of influence into everything that came afterwards. Like dont mean to be rude but fallout especially and JoJo tangentially by being inspired by fist of the north Star are the more obvious cases of being inspired by mad max. I guess some people arent as content brained as i am ​@@jordank6546

"A Boy and his Dog" is closer to Fallout. The Vault with creepy dwellers, glowing ghouls, Dog sidekick, raiders, etc.

That or Australia is where the mad max movies take place and America is where the fallout series takes place since both have similar looks, vibes and backstorys of a lost cold war nuclear war and In both we never really know what goes in other countries outside of those two series as mad max is all on Australia while fallout is focused solely on America 😂.

I love her in Farscape so much!!!

Farscape is so good, or 'Aussie Muppets in Space' as I call it.

You absolute madlad

Also, the villain in Commando which is amazing. Vernon Wells is like a Gary Oldman of B-movies, if hes in it its probably epic.

Time Force was a great series

@paragonjones13 recently did a rewatch as it was my first power rangers and it holds up pretty well

@@frankthepug3103 oooh!

The baddest of the bad boys, but also the goodest of the good boys at the same time.

What about bum darts? I hear that's fun.

Came out the same year 😂

@@andymc96 lord humongous premiered on Australian screens in 1981 jason didn't get his hockey mask until 1982.

One came before the other, and it WASN'T Voorheese!

The Iatola of rock ‘n’ rolla!!

@@bigkmoviesandgames The original Friday didn't even have Jason, till the ending.

Yeah I dont think he knew they'd turned around. Could kinda of combine the two and say he didn't know, was trying to catch up, saw it but was crazy and desperate enough to think he was indestructible at that point and just went for it.

@@AveragePicker Huh, that's a good point. Surely the Ayatollah of Rock and Rollah would imagine himself being just fine in such a situation.

They are only payed to edit once though, so if you rewatch it's mostly silence with no picture.

@@Ovetupp 🤣

On the contrary, it seems they were the first things that were raided

Same with me. The best Mad Max film. Way better than Fury Road.

I reckon that must be original cinema release box office only. I find it impossible to believe MM2 hasn’t surpassed it in video rentals.

No we have plenty of gun crime in Toronto, but the guns are always from America. We also call cigarettes darts though.

It was "Father" and "Son"

@@titusmccarthy Vernon's character was definitely his "Daddy"

You're not far off. The premise that George Miller has gone with *is* that Mad Max is a legendary figure, like King Arthur, Robin Hood or Paul Bunyan, who gets mixed into stories about events that probably happened in some way like how they're portrayed, but with a lot of extra bits added in as the stories get passed down orally from generation to generation. Did Max Rockatansky ever exist? Did he ever do half the things he's said to have done? Who knows? But the History Men say he does, and that we have him to thank for the way things are now, and that's just what we have to accept because we weren't there. Now hand me that can of guzzoline, I need to go out on a supply run.

Most Hollywood actors are crazy, crazy people. I prefer to just let them act, not idolize them. So Mel Gibson said some mean things about Jews while he was drunk, I've heard a fair few actors gripe about how horrible white people supposedly are since then, and none of them got so much as a slap on the wrist for it. Fairs fair, innit?

Nah, that's just how people dress in Australia!

Maybe we will! WINK
