We Watched *MAD MAX FURY ROAD* for the FIRST TIME 

Fun fact: George Miller didn't want the studio involved in the final cut of the film so he had his wife edit the over 400 hours of material She won an Oscar for the film

Fun fact. While Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron did not get along well on set, their stunt doubles did. They fell in love while filming Max and Furiosa's fight scene, and production of Fury Road took so long that their first child was born before the movie even got into theaters.

Nux is such a phenomenal character. He went from worshipping Immortan Joe to being this guy who would eventually do good. His sacrifice was sad, but he is in valhalla, shiny and chrome. His arc was really good.

I talked my dad into seeing this with me and he was like "Alright fine. We'll go see Mad Max I guess... I'm not doing anything else today." By the end he was laughing and applauding. It's his favorite movie now. About a year later I was visiting them and watching it at their house. He was like "Are you watching Fury Road?! Sweet! I've got some really good weed from when I went and visited your brother in Michigan! Let's get high and watch the rest of it!" The weed was called "Biker Kush." My dad's a real one.

Fun fact: the director, George Miller, also directed Babe: Pig in the City and the Happy Feet movies. Dude's got versatility!

The actor playing Immortan Joe also played the character Toecutter in the original '79 Madmax

I love how every reactor I’ve seen watch this laugh when Nux stumbles when he tries to board the war rig, feel shock and sympathy for him during his scene with Capable and the sadness when he sacrifices himself to block the pass. One of the absolute best character arcs ever

I love how they didn’t do an ending where Max finds peace in being part of group/family… Like he just shows up, saves the day of a group of ragtags, and then just goes on his way… Just like the original films did

They won the Oscar for best costume design, best editing, best makeup and hair, best production design, best sound editing and best sound mixing About the editing one, It's George Miller's wife, Margaret Sixel, who did it. It was her very first work on an action movie (she did the editing on documentaries, Happy feet and Babe 2 before that) and Miller did her do it for that very reason Since then, she also edited 3000 years of longing and Furiosa

There's actually a Mad Max game as well that released the same year in 2015 developed by Avalanche Studios. It's just a really underrated game that released alongside Witcher 3, Fallout 4, Batman Arkham Knight among other heavy hitters so alot of people skipped Max Mad to play other tites. It's a blast and I highly recommend it to everyone who loved this film. The game can be found on sale for a few dollars so it's a cheap pick up.

What makes this film so good is the brilliant cinematography, flawless editing, and jaw dropping techniques! You don’t need to see the other Mad Max films before watching this one since it has a different plot than the rest of them. One of the best action movies in the past decade.

The added context of the Furiosa movie makes this film even better than it already was. Imagine making movies since the 70s and you're still coming out with bangers that are all made with the energy of directors picking up the camera for the first time

Here's the thing about this movie. It's actually the third act of a larger story that the director came up with in the late 90s. That's why it's 95% action scenes. The first two acts are about Furiosa and Max before the events in this movie. But they decided to film the third act first because they thought it had the best chance of making money. The new Mad Max movie about Furiosa releasing in a couple of days is one of the first two acts. It took longer than usual to make because Miller had a dispute with Warner Bros. He wants to make the next movie about Max and so you'll be able to watch all three as one epic story. That was the original intent anyways.

Seeing Fury Road for the first time is a visceral & emotional life changing experience. It’s one of the best films ever. I was so glad I went to see it in the theaters. Glad you guys finally got to watching it.🙂👍

There's something to be said about the women in the citadel, without joe they were pretty much calling the shots up there, and within minutes of learning his death, the first thing they did was open the water for everyone. They enjoyed the most comfortable existence around and could have been spoiled and conceited about but didn't. They were quick to share it with everyone else

In regards to your question about how older people could possibly survive…. In the Mad Max series, it’s implied that nuclear war took place in combination with climate change to produce this post apocalypse world. People who were alive and well before the nuclear bombs were dropped (over 50+ years of age at this time of the movie) are actually MORE likely to be healthy and survive longer than those who have been born after and have absorbed the pollution and radiation. That’s why the War Boys (the majority of who are under 30 years of age, likely) are called ‘half life’ because they die younger. Nux himself, who has Max as a blood bag to give him healthy blood, is likely suffering from some sort of blood or bone cancer. The tumors they also sport, such as Ace’s neck tumors (the guy hanging off the side of the War Rig before he’s thrown off) and Nux’s Barry and Larry, come from the same reason. Meanwhile Max is called a ‘full life’ because he shows no signs of cancer or sickness and is generally strong. To illustrate this difference between the ages and amount of toxins absorbed, there’s a perfect example. There’s a deleted scene showing a closer look at the people who were trying to climb up on the platform to go up to the Citadel. There’s a mother who tries to volunteer her infant child to become one of the War Pups, the young children who are trained to become War Boys, but the child has the same tumors shown as the sickest people. The child is refused and tossed back to her, while she is accepted because she can produce the ‘Mother’s Milk’. She’s the figure you can see standing in the middle of the platform. It just goes to show that those who are older in this world shouldn’t be counted out and are actually generally more healthy than the younger people. That’s why there’s so much emphasis placed on healthy babies.

They're two different tribes actually. The spiked cars and russian-speaking are Buzzards, mostly night raiders. The guys on motorcycles are the Rock Riders. They live in the hills, speak english, and they initially make a deal with Furiosa: fuel in exchange for passing the canyon. As we see in the movie, the deal goes south.

What I've learned from this movie is that on Fury Road, you only need 1 thing... A BADASS set of bolt cutters. First Max used bolt cutters to get free of Nux, then later used bolt cutters on the harpoons shot by the drag cars to slow them down, thus letting them escape. Without the bolt cutters, they never would have made it past that point and would have been overrun.

This movie actually got 6 oscars total, one of the most awarded movies ever This is indeed, a masterpiece so big... Also, George, the director, tried for the most amount of practical effects he could, so, explosions and stuff, most were the real deal, instead of CGI Granted, great quality CGI is hard to pick apart from the real stuff, but then again, real stuff is always real stuff, and always looks great

This is the 4th film in the Mad Max saga; The first 3 are Mad Max, Mad Max The Road Warrior, and Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome

The soundtrack in this movie is amazing!

It's really sad that when this movie was released not many people watched it. And the same is happening to Furiosa rn, ( not sure why) and these two movies sound so good in an Imax or with a headset, or some sort of home theater. You guys should definitely watch Mad Max 1979 and Mad Max the road warrior 1981 but definitely turn off the lights to really enjoy them

The hand sign the warboys do is to imitate the pistons of a V8 engine 😅

One of the most beautiful films ever made! Simply a masterpiece. Every frame is a painting. The pacing, the score, the set-pieces, the practical fx and the cgi fx, all executed to perfection. The film is more a poem then a movie. Told with glorious colors and stunning composition. You guys caught it too, the shot of Furiousa on her knees in the desert screaming is just genius!

Charlize is a total chameleon that just inhabits roles like almost no one else! Check out 'Monster' for what I think is one of her greatest performances.

The moment that Nux crashes the war rig, the way that his looks become "human" again, and the fact that he says witness me, not to an uncaring 'god', but to people he truly cares about, i cry everytiem

If you guys only know Charlize Theron from The Fate of the Furious, you need to go through her movie catalog and watch more. She's great in everything she does. Monster, Atomic Blonde, Devil's Advocate, Italian Job, you two would probably even love Handcock.

Wow, love how shocked y'all are - cuz this movie is brings more than we are used to seeing. So glad you could appreciate just how incredible each piece was, cuz sometimes it happens so quick you miss it. How they pull off something so grounded-feeling and surreal at once is just poetic. Cheers.

George Miller was trained as a medical doctor and worked in an emergency room for many years. It was to cope with the aftermath of horrible road accidents and whatnot that he would see every time he was on duty that inspired him to make the first “Mad Max.” By all accounts Miller’s a lovely, empathetic, deeply caring man who’s always concerned with everyone around him. One story I heard from “Furiosa” had Anya Taylor Joy repeatedly shocking Miller with her fucked up ideas for stuff. Anya said Miller would react to something she suggested by saying, “Anya, that is SO violent and disturbing! How on earth do you think of such things??” to which Anya would sort of gesture to all the fucked up stuff around her on set and say, “Bro.” 😅😅😅😅

The death of Immortan Joe is by far the craziest most disgusting deaths I’ve ever seen in a movie.

Seeing this in theaters going in blind, just top 3 best film experiences of my life

I know one of the stuntmen and stunt coordinators from this movie; Harrison Norris. He is an awesome guy. He's in Furisoa as "Haz the Valiant". He told a story about George Miller. He was at dinner with George, and was set to be seated next to him at the table. George said something along the lines of "Harrison, I'm having a guest come, do you mind if we move you one seat down?" to which Harrison said okay. Then, who walks in and sits down but Guillermo Del Toro, who ordered a whole piglet from a restaurant which did not have it on the menu. Lo and behold, it came fully cooked to the table within an hour. Anyway, a fun story about this awesome director, who made the best action movies of the past decade.

Tom played the most badass character in the series “taboo” He was such a dark character

the director made happy feet and babe pig in the city lol

the director George Miller (one of the goats) is not actually a director. He is a real life doctor worked in ER's and his time in the ER directly lead to him with friends going off and shooting a indie movie, which was the first Max movie. I think often its the fact that he has no training outside of first hand experience that elevates his work. because as he put it "My job as a director is to have a vision in my head of what I want the audience to see, I then have to show the audience what I see, not tell them with words." Miller may not be the greatest of all time but he will always be my personal favorite. The man has never missed every film is amazing that he does but he does not do many he is very picky he has to see it in his head or he wont touch it. He has also made some movies you may have seen or enjoyed as children. He made Babe (you know pig in the city, "That will do pig that will do") he also made Happy Feet (yes the dancing penguin movie) so let that sink in. The man that made some of the best family films of all time started with the franchise that has mastered what I like to call "Beautiful Chaos". after the upcoming Furiosa movie he has stated he has 3 other max films already in his head and ready to go. Keep in mind there are 3 other max films before these ones. originally max was played by Mel Gibson. These movies are also shot from different perspectives and this is on purpose. so what I mean is the very first Mad Max movie is the only one that max is the one telling the story its from his point of view. In this movie Fury Road it was from Furiosa point of view, her tale, a legend if you will of when she encountered the Road Warrior Max and how he helped them for him to once again vanish into the wasteland a legend a myth that maybe one day will return again. and one last bit of the incredible symbolism of George Miller who is also the writer of these films. Imortant Joe represents the horseman of famine keeping the water for himself so nothing could grow. Bullet Farmer was the horseman of war Gas Town guy was the horseman of Pestilence (plague) look at him so nasty. but Max he is the 4th horseman the horseman of Death because it follows him no matter where he goes, and Furiosa won the day, why? BECAUSE DEATH WAS ON HER SIDE.

I think maybe Max didn't want to share his name because he was refusing to form any more attachments, especially with people he perceived as vulnerable; he couldn't handle any more ghosts of the people he failed to save calling out to him with it. So by deliberately telling her his name at that moment, when she truly was close to death, he was finally committing to pursuing his own redemption, and choosing to stop running from the dead in life.

This is the perfect movie. It's not perfect because it's the best movie ever made, which I don't think it is, but it did exactly what it was trying to do with gorgeous aplomb. It's the perfect of example of something so insanely well crafted in its genre that it will never be outdone. I actually don't think it would be possible. I also love that the guy who invented the whole "post-apocalypse fever dream" type of movie came back after decades to show everyone how it's done. It's a beautiful thing.

A popular hand gesture at 41:26 used by War Boys was "The Sign of the V8", which was formed by intersecting four fingers on each hand (8 in total) in a V shape 😊. Nice reaction by the way.

the redhead is elvis' granddaughter!

The car with tank treads is based off an actual military vehicle called the Ripsaw. It's extremely versatile but the army can't actually find a standard use for it.

Yall need to watch the original trilogy with Mel Gibson!

I truly love this coupled energy towards each other. You feel their love for each other and how they feel about the subjects they talk about! True Love!!

Please do everyone a favour and watch Furiosa in theatres. It needs the box office moolah so we can get the last one before the director dies! Let George Miller finish his vision!

Saw this in theaters, my favorite moviegoing experience ever

I like post-apocalypse movies, my favorite genre. The Mad Max series is some of the best, this one tops them all. A lot of the people have radiation sickness which is why a lot of the war boys have numerous tumors all over their bodies. You should give the Fallout tv series a viewing. Its awesome, based off my favorite game franchise. Its one of those rare times that a game brought to the tv/movie media actually works out right.

You guys should watch the riddick series. Pitch black, chronicles of riddick and riddick. Vin diesel is the main lead. You guys can also check out the last witch hunter.

And to think George Miller also directed Babe Ping in the City and Happy Feet.

Furiosa movie have much less actions scenes but quality is on same level with this Mad Max movie.

Fun fact the woman who was bait was going to be wonder woman in george millers cancelled justice league film

I’ll just say as a child of the 80s, I would recommend watching Mad Max 2 the Road Warrior first, and then it’s a toss up for movie 1 vs 3. Road Warrior is the closest to style to this movie. It’s also crazy that this director also did Babe and Happy Feet.

The ash fading off Nux as he regains his humanity… cinema

The Director was once a Doctor in an Emergency Room. Many years ago.

About "old people": The apocalyptic war happened just between 10 to 20 years ago.

Awesome movie!!! I think you'll also like the first 3 Mad Max movies as well as the one coming out. George Miller directed all 5 movies in the Mad Max universe.

This is honestly one of my top 3 favorite movies, ive watched it like 40 times and even like 3 days in a row and im still not tired of it

This movie was just a big as "U" turn

You two have such good chemistry 😀

Same writer/director as Babe and Happy Feet, that's the best part. Man's got issues :) The cultural impact of this movie can't be overstated.

The vehicle design is a class of its own!

Mad Max is a media franchise created by George Miller and Byron Kennedy. It centers on a series of post-apocalyptic and dystopian action films. The franchise began in 1979 with Mad Max, and was followed by three sequels: Mad Max 2 (1981, released in the United States as The Road Warrior), Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome (1985) and Mad Max: Fury Road (2015); Miller directed or co-directed all four films. Mel Gibson portrayed the title character Max Rockatansky in the first three films, while Tom Hardy portrayed the character in Mad Max: Fury Road.

I love Fury Road so much, that I saw it about 9 times in theaters, each time to take someone new to see it. The experience in the theater was unmatched. The new movie, Furiosa, is so flippin' good, I highly highly recommend it! It has a very different tone and structure, but feels similar to the older Mad Max movies in a lot of ways.

"Homelander here would be in heaven" 😂🥛

If you can believe it, the director of this film, George Miller, also directed Babe: a Pig in the City. My favorite in the Mad Max series is still the 2nd on, released as The Road Warrior in the states and Mad Max 2 everywhere else. But don’t get me wrong, I do like Fury Road a lot. Tom Hardy did a great job honoring what Mel Gibson did with the role all those years ago while still making it his own.

From the Oscar Award winning writer-director of Happy Feet and Babe a Pig in the City, but yes, Max and Furiosa are just fables and stories told in future.

"probably the most action packed movie i've ever watch" okay vince clearly u havent watch the raid, the movie that blews EVERY reactors mind lol and the movie that makes every action movie looks like amateur movie

Imagine to see it in Imax as I did. What a Lovely day. And Furiosa will be alike

The only movie I've ever seen that comes close top this.... is FURIOSA. It's AWESOME

A lot of the effects are practical, so the stunt work still amazes me to this day.

Did you guys watch the other ones? Not that you have to watch them in order, but they just get bigger and better with each sequel.

Max said "Hope is a mistake..." He was saying, placing your hope that there is something better out there, is a mistake. "If you don't fix what's wrong, you'll just go insane." The Citadel is the green place, it should be home and it is home. If you don't fix what's wrong at home you'll just wander around not knowing what to do until you lose track of your mind. Resolve the issues at home and then you may leave without burden weighing your footsteps. Hope is a mistake. Doing right is better than hoping. It will be a hard day. But if you run away, out there there's nothing but salt.

Just watched Furiosa so I’m excited you guys watched this!

One of the best films ever made, shiny and chrome.

This was a great reboot to the Mad Max franchise with ideas of cars and trucks demonstrating through the desert.

This whole movie is pure calculated chaos. So so good.

This movie is just a representation of a normal walk to get groceries on a Tuesday in Australia.

Shoshana with the brazilian rep today, we love to see it

Furiosa was amazing you should check it out its set before the events of this movie

7:42 Awesomeness 21:08 The green place ( Swamp ) 33:20 My favorite scene 36:08 Yes nux

Another fact on top of all the ones that peeps been saying. The actor Nicholas Hoult who plays Nux wanted to be in the actual seat of the truck while it crashed at 36:08 and they told him absolutely not.. After the crash the dummy that was in the seat had it's head ripped off. Can't find where he says this but it's in one of the behind the scene videos on you tube somewhere!

"Furiosa" comes out this friday. It's prequel before Mad Max-Fury Road. It's a young Furiosa played by Anya Taylor-Joy. Chris Hemsworth is also in the film

The “in that direction there is only salt” thing, they are probably talking about crossibg a dried up ocean.

Fun fact: the hand symbol the war boys do is meant to represent a V8 engine. You’ll hear it during the scene where the war boys go and get the steering wheels off that Christmas tree like display of unique wheels “by my deeds I honor him; V8!” And they do the hand thing. They worship V8 engines and the “religion” is known as the cult of V8 with immortan joe as a sort of prophet / divine figure head

The Mad Max movie, where Max is a background character. He was in the background on the posters.

Max was responsible for the death of the wife after she slipped on her bloody foot from where he had shot her. Just another soul that he didn't save to haunt him.

Mad Max is one of my favorite movies ! I just love Tom hardy he’s a good actor 🫶

When I first saw this, I sensed that it was going to be nominated for the Oscars for Best Picture -- and it did. One of the rare times that the Oscars nominated an action flick for Best Picture but what people who thought it was just an action movie didn't see it for what it was -- a singular vision from one of the best directors of our time -- George Miller.

Immortan Joe: "Valhalla" Person watching: "Vawrawraw!"

When our world enters the apocalypse, people will do worse than what is represented in the film. In fact, they already do that. I don't understand the surprise when watching the film and seeing such scenes.

Valhalla :). Vikings - the series is a good recommendation for you guys. you'll love it.

Hope you two are having an great and awesome day ❤

You gotta see the fan made Mad Max short HOPE AND GLORY!

4:36 those two are hes sons. One is a childlike brute, the other small and unable to move

Tom hardy got this role because he nailed it in Bronson movie.

Charlize and Tom Hardy HATED EACH OTHER making this movie

35:36 Shoshanna will never recover

Cheedo is the youngest wife and the most naive hence why she is somewhat more inclined to run back to Joes forces. Its interesting seeing her muster up courage over time throughout the course of the film even if it's not showcased so much.

The director, George Miller, is responsible for all the mad max movies - AND Babe and Happy Feet. Immortan Joe had only two children - the sons Rictus (the big guy) and Corpus Colossus (the little disabled guy with the telescope). Joe has the "breeders" because he's trying to breed healthy children for himself out of the radiation. The war boys are just boys who have different varieties of cancer, probably thyroid cancer, since radiation usually causes that cancer in children - hence their "half life".

Just saw Furiosa on IMAX, was fucking incredible

Pure masterpiece of all time This is kind of movie made for theatre

17:03 the deal was off because it sounds like Furiosa promised that there'd be 'a few vehicles, maybe'. Basically. She'd be able to steal the fuel and bring it to them without any fuss. Instead, like the bike guy said there's; 'three whole war parties'. So suddenly they have a massive fight on their hands one way or another, and the deal they had with Furiosa's off. So kill her and take the fuel anyway.
