Making one movie over a decade is hard. Let’s talk about how difficult it was to make Mad Max: Fury Road, from its numerous delays that started in 1998 with Mel Gibson, to the risking life in limb stunts in the unruly deserts of Africa that caused Charlize Theron and Tom Hardy to nearly kill each other.

Absolutely fascinating. I had always thought the tif between Theron and Hardy was diva based, but in that raging heat and not knowing what was in Miller's head, I can see how it fueled the characters into their dislike of each other. I think this is a great example of how a 'shitshow' can be precisely what a project needs to get the kind of raw emotion and action out of a film. I loved Fury Road to begin with, but this has just made me appreciate it way more. Excellent piece you've done here. Kudos

On one of Billy Connolly's tours of Australia he was unable to attend a local boat race. As for once in hundreds of years it had water in it. Usually the boat race is conducted by teams of 5 guys running with a rowing boat on their head down a dusty former river bed. Australia.

OMG!! My brother worked in that film and although you’ve touch many of the main issues, there’s a LOT of things that you probably don’t know. Filming in the Namib desert was a HUGE nightmare especially when you have around 500 locals threatening to burn sets and actually did so. Apparently ,the production team couldn’t care less about the protests of environmentalists and that was enough for them to start a massive boicot which included : burning sets, flying a small plane around to mess with sound and photography… you name it and they did it! Also changes in production schedule EVERY SINGLE DAY, no one knew what they had to do (which is something you’re explaining in this video but only cast wise). They promised that around 1000 locals would work doing this (which was part of the deal with the film commissions) and they kept their promise, but this also was another problem due to the inexperience of some of the people hired. He always talks about this film as THE WORST experience EVER working in production and I believe that The Rise of Skywalker comes second with absolutely no one knowing WTF was happening there, there was a massive rumour around the set that they were adding to the script on the fly and having watched the final product, I have 0 doubts that it was the case. George Miller did a great job anyway, because this is a MASTERPIECE and usually when shootings go through big amount of problems, the movie ends up being SHIT, but it didn’t happen here and I’ve always thought that the editing it’s one of the finest EVER in a film, and I’m talking ANY FILM EVER.

AAGH! I'm so glad you mentioned the brilliance of the editing!!! I genuinely think Fury Road is one of the best made films of all time. Because of the direction, cinematography and editing! I honestly think this film should be dissected in film schools. The first time I watched it, I loved it but wasn't entirely sure WHY. So I immediately ran it a second time, this time with the sound off and some classical music playing. And then it was clear. I realized that the thing was edited like a music video. There must be 40-50 edits per minute. Yet it wasn't confusing because there was a flow that carried across the cuts. You might have a car moving to the left in one shot and in the next, a person, bird or some other thing would carry that movement forward and then something else in the shot after that would pick it up. Or the camera movement would match across cuts that were likely shot months apart. It was like a freaking ballet! And no matter how insane the chaos got, *somehow* my eye was always directed to the exact spot it needed to be to catch that split second clue that held the visual narrative together. I was in awe. I like to contrast it with the first Transformers movie, which is an unwatchable, incomprehensible, eye-gouging shit show. In that thing, whenever there was action, I had literally zero idea WTF I was even looking at. It was an incomprehensible jumble of crap and movement. The fact that Fury Road won Oscars actually restored my faith in the institution. This thing is a legit masterpiece of filmmaking.

One of the really interesting things, to us Australians at least, was the use of our own slang as well as a sorta made-up slang that reminded me of A Clockwork Orange. There's something really special about hearing words from your own country used in a huge block buster. I'm really glad those weren't cut to make it more accessible to foreign audiences. I believe Mad Max 5 is currently being filmed near Broken Hill and Chris Hemsworth is the new Max. And yes, when it rains in the outback, you would not believe how it comes to life.

@@ItWasAShtShow you've already encapsulated a lot of what people wanted to know. :) The film speaks for itself in that as you see it on screen, that's pretty much what went on. A traveling circus performing every day for months on end in a foreign environment while battling harsh natural elements, along with the complexities of a tv reality show with car-crash personalities/relationships/egos in the background. The audition process involved hours of physical testing. 45min rolling plank battle between myself and one other guy, push/press/sits up till failure, rope climbs, stunt fights, and and and... (many of the parkour athletes got in, which I was proud about) I was told to pack for 2 weeks, and signed on as a single stunt character..... ended up staying 8 months, playing many background characters (the core group all had multiple roles to play), drove many of those vehicle beasts (some of my best memories and what a credit to the vehicle department for maintaining those!!!), helped out on the rigging team when needed, utility stunts, you name it I just kept busy and making myself available wherever, and also experienced the incredible beauty of Namibia during off days (highly recommend anyone to make the trip out there). This film resulted in me moving to a different continent, gave me an incredible little human being as a son, started a new career, and I can look back on the work done by everyone involved and proud to say I was part of it. (And as a bonus, the stunt team were awarded Best Stunt Ensemble for that year, and I have an awesome Honours certificate from the Screen Actors Guild Awards framed up as a reminder) What an experience, both the good and the bad, and one I hope any stunt performer out there gets to experience at least once in their career. So yeah, as I mentioned right at the beginning..... thanks for the memories. ;)

This movie is truly a masterpiece. From some of the gnarliest most amazing car crashes and stunts, to a post-apocalyptic world with so much lore and history of how things are somehow told so well despite absolute minimal dialogue, the imagery and cinematography and the feeling of genuinely being left almost exhausted at the end of the movie flooded with adrenaline from such a persistent intense engaging chase that really does keep you at the edge of your seat the entire time.. A true 10/10.

I mean its easy to dismiss studios cuz of stories like Star Wars where they know jackshit and yeah thats true, but then u have pitches like Frank Miller’s Robocop or Jodorowsky’d Dune that are just unsalvageable insane ideas, fun and interesting but utterly unfilmable.

The briefcase in Pulp Fiction is a Macguffin because it doesn't matter what is in the briefcase, it matters that everyone wants it and the plot moves forward based on how they get it.

You know, reading your comment, it occurred to me that similar things exist in videogame gameplay design. I'm thinking of gameplay mechanics in which, either the resulting gameplay is completely unrepresentative of what in-universe actions it's supposed to stand in for (like for example passively standing in small circles around the map in Payday 3 for like 30 seconds a piece to represent hacking into some wifi network, instead of having the player actually do something active which even vaguely represents the action of hacking some network), OR, gameplay mechanics which do not even represent any in-universe actions and exist purely as fluff for the player, (like for example microtransaction mechanics, like Star Wars Battlefront 2 2017 launch era-style lootboxes, or some kinds of minigames which are wholly unrelated to the actual game's world, like the Witcher 3's gwent, excellent as though it was). Neither of such things are categorically unfitting for all games, just as how macguffins might be more than appropriate for certain types of movies (like, idk, comedy or satire films or smth), but these techniques can likewise result in disjointed and lazy feeling design when it comes to gameplay mechanics in videogames, just as how poorly utilized macguffins often blemish movies for which they do not make sense.

@@anonymouseovermouse1960 funnily enough if a proper MacGuffin is in a movie/book usually thats a sign of quality. It's when things start having use in the plot that they become annoying, because at that point the writer can make the story moving from arbitrary object to arbitrary object until the plot is resolved. Like finding the glasses that let you see secret codes to open the safe that has the map to the voice recording that tells of the old lady that knows where the mother box is that has the death star plans inside. If it's just a MacGuffin usually thats fine because MacGuffin's are like time travel. Once they're in your story for them to be good your story has to be about them. If it doesn't have use in the plot but everyone wants it, it becomes very hard to make it arbitrary. The story could only really become bad from the MacGuffin if it was disguarded partway through for no reason. You can still have it bad from characters, and writing, and all the other things but a bad writer has usually already ruined it by making the MacGuffin not a MacGuffin anymore.

Really cool doco! One thing though - the part about this film not having a script is just one of many myths surrounding Fury Road. It did have a script. It was important to have it for everyone involved in the production, from the movie studio to actors and crew - they couldn't just work off of pictures. The script had parts of storyboards in it just to visualize scenes. Of course the actors had their sides as well that was just pure text without any images. In fact - a whole thing could be made about how Fury Road was advertised vs how it really went down, there's plenty of stories floating around that are perpetuated by the creators themselves.

From what I understand the movie was storyborded entirely first. The script came second. But if you watch the movie there is little dialog so any script would have been fairly sparse. Max especially is a man of few words. This would make understand a character hard because for long sections Max doesn’t say a single line of dialog. Getting the shots needed and the performance from actors that don’t quite understand their character shows what a genius Miller was. Because of this movie I still want to buy an El Camino and Max Max it.

I think what people mean when they say this is that a screenplay was never written for this movie. I believe that. However, there was almost certainly a shooting script done up by director and the cinematographer. Shooting scripts include detailed descriptions of everything that is to happen in each shot and are mainly utilized by the crew. Screenplays include mostly dialogue and keep scene descriptions to an absolute minimum.

I had absolutely no idea just how difficult the production for this movie was, I'd heard it was challenging but I had no concept for the sheer extent of every hurdle that came in the way. Excellent summary as always, thorough and engaging

New interview with Theron adds details to their relationship. Paints a much worse picture, she even requested protection from Hardy. Probably talked more positively before about it to help promote the movie

I LOVE this movie SO MUCH!!!! I'm still waiting for the sequel to fury road with the same actors even tho furiosa story ended I wouldn't mind it if they bring her back. I seriously hope we don't have to wait another decade... (well we're very close to that decade now time sure flies) I'm not one that rewatches movies but this one is one i always go back to time to time just as (Karl Urban's) DREDD are two modern action movies I never get tired of watching!

As an editor, I love the note about attention point tracking in the cut. That is a great, but time consuming trick. You shoot wider than you have to, with the intent to crop and be able to reposition things in frame. Always make sure the last person in the previous shot matches the first point that draws the eye in the following shot, and if not, give time for the eyeballs to physically move. Be able to dictate attention. You can re-orient the eye with sound. If something happens in frame accompanied by a bank, like a gun shot with a muzzle flash, then the eye will jump to whatever correlates with the sound. You can use that moment for a transition. Action and music videos are all about that. Juggling attention. Treating the eye line like a pinball trajectory. Rewatch this movie, because it uses every trick in the book. And time-ramps are just insane. Cuts that don't look like cuts. It's a complete eye candy and done as professionally as it possibly can.

I thought it be good as Miller was doing good work for awhile. This guy made "Babe". What great little movie that was. But you know that movie was crafted with care and attention. But I never forgot the same guy wrote "The Road Warrior". I knew something good might be coming be damm he nailed this one. Using tasteful CGI the way he did, and the visual storytelling of FURY ROAD was incredible. FURY ROAD and PACIFIC RIM are two movies that where way better then I thought they be. (knew both would be good, but not that good)

@SewerTapes 2 года назад
@@mindcrome More than anything, I kept hoping one of my favorite directors would have a return to their roots with everything they had learned. I just never thought it would be George Miller. Fury Road is batsh!t insane, and I love it. The only thing that could have possibly made it any better for me is Mel Gibson with a big hobo beard.
