Who Killed the World? A scientist reacts to the Furiosa Trailer 

The issue: People and companies have swapped out their competency for gatekeeper-ism. Expect little culture. Its ideology wars in the corporatocracy, and we are all losing out to it. Hegemonies suck. Because their ego comes before humanity.

@@burtlangoustine1 Social conditioning, as has been the case since Eduard Bernays. We saw the video game industry takeover, mid 2000's, and what happened to THAT. Music industry the same, Simon Cowell world these days. Nobody gets a record deal unless they're pre-manufactured and sold their soul. But the movie industry I always figured could hold out. Then suddenly .... they didn't. Indie has kept me going for so long, and the odd gem gets through. Damn shame for future generations.

Fury Road was certainly a huge success critically. But it cost between $154 million to over $180 million to make not including advertising. It grossed $380 million. It's said that a film has to make two and half times its production costs to break even. At it's lowest estimated production cost, Fury Road, at best, would have profited a few million dollars. At its highest estimated production cost, it would have lost over $50 million. So, it's understandable that a studio might be hesitant to invest in a sequel. Especially since Furiosa is said to have cost $230 million to make.

@@richardb6260 You can thank Star Wars for that! Without the merchandise tie ins and sponsership deals that George Lucas demanded he keep with his contract rights, that franchise would have ended up in the same basket as said movie. And is the similar reason that you would not see a proper contiuation of LOTR because it would be seen as marketable assest by executives without the weak minded race/gender woke politrics tainting every inch of the subject matter. I'm grateful people like George Miller and Ridley Scott stick to their guns and at least try to keep it real without being caught up with in the instant gratification of modern day Pedowood.

@@sausage.10367 stop reading after the gender/woke crap. Grow up.

The game confirmed that

In what spot in the title?

@@JudoGeoff I think he changed the title.

The premise is simple - not dumb - just like the other Mad Max movies. In Fury Road it is stated several times that they have enough fuel and supplies to ride for 160 days.

Fury Road - a feminist movie - was a financial success, received almost universal critical acclaim and Charlize Theron’s Furiosa simply stole the show. "I've gone from being very male dominant to being surrounded by magnificent women. I can't help but be a feminist." George Miller

Its literally one of the main characters from a financially and critically successful movie being put in another movie. Go away with whatever culture war bullshit you're peddling.

What the hell do you mean 'gender-swapped'? Was she a guy in Fury Road or something? Are you an actual human being or just an incredibly unconvincing bot?

What part of "we don't care about the loser the opinions of incels who are sacred of girls" do you not get? Put away your box of tissues, clean up your room and go experience the real world and summon the courage to talk to actual women. .
