To the people complaining about radiation: "Fallout radiation decays relatively quickly with time. Most areas become fairly safe for travel and decontamination after three to five weeks." Thunderdome was supposed to happen 15-odd years after the actual nuclear "war" (unseen).
@@adrianlasin574 Maybe what you're referring to is what happens to radioactive carbon-14 in the atmosphere. Just like with carbon-12 (the nonradioactive isotope), carbon-14 combines with oxygen to form CO2. That CO2 is then absorbed by plants and the ocean in the same way that "regular" CO2 is. So exposure to atmospheric C14 could be less than what might be predicted based only on its half-life (5700 years) if it were incorporated into CO2 and then absorbed. In my mind that's not really CO2 "eliminating" radiation. The process I described above wouldn't offer protection from other sources of fallout, or from what might happen if you eat plants that are suddenly getting a richer dose of CO2 made from carbon-14 (or the animals that ate those plants). Not having the nuclear war in the first place is probably still the best choice.
it's a shame they made it seem in mad max 2 that civilization was never fully rebuilt and max was cursed to wander the wasteland forever, it would have been a nice denouement to the triology if they made it seem like civilization was eventually rebuilt and max finally comes home which this final scene alludes to, but is contradicted by the second film

They had a good intention in mind by lighting the city again but they never thought of the potential negative outcomes of doing so since there were many barbarian men out there who may find them and kill them.
But they've got the knowing which probably means they know how to defend themselves. Master Blaster was part brains part brawn. Obviously without the brains Master Blaster wasn't as effective. That's why Aunty Entity wanted Thunderstone to settle it. Master couldn't enter because that's three. The dispute apparently involved two. Master probably wasn't too worried. Clearly it wasn't a tag team, and even if it was I don't think Max would have had much problem with Master.
I think the city was intended to be a beacon for good people, tired of wandering around; most of the barbaric/dangerous/powerful criminals/hordes were dead by the time the trilogy ends; in Mad Max 2, the people of Humungus were the "rulers" of the Wasteland, but Max and Pappagallo gave them a crippling blow. The "villains" of Bartertown were not even villains.
It would have been cooler if they showed a fast forward progress of the new society and the earth’s restoration over a period of a couple centuries with a voiceover of the lady’s tell. It would end with a restored semi modern civilization and world similar to the first Mad Max movie, making the saga itself come full circle.
to me the third one feels like a final showing Max slowly becoming his oldself and the point of the new sciety being built gave this hope and silver lining that things will get better over time as the third film gave a sign of hope that things will slowly recover something the 4th film failed to do a try to be the road warrior 2.0
Nice idea, but though the film has its issues I think the ending works just fine as-is, the point being the power of myth and storytelling to change the world. I found it oddly moving when I saw THUNDERDOME in the theatre decades ago, and now, just days after we lost the Queen of Soul, I still do.
It’s set fifteen years after the War. Chances are the city is habitable enough to grow food and there are enough water sources to sustain a large population. If you ask me, those kids will build their own equivalent of the Great Northern Tribe mentioned in the second film.

honestly not that hard to imagine.. as an Australian.. anyone who has experienced apocalyptic fires and floods in recent times and anyone who is cognisant of nuke threats (Xi/Putin) won't have a hard time imagining it. There is already a food shortage after covid, brussel sprouts are selling for $15/kg ar the local supermarket which is nearly as expensive as meat There's about to be a global fuel crisis, global warming is causing arid conditions, drought is not uncommon, massive parts of Australia are already inhospitable desert, people go missing in the outback. It's a massive island basically in the middle of nowhere, it's going to be pretty hard to escape anywhere if you're not on a plane. i actually think one of the reasons this film is so resonant with Australians themselves is that actually, like a lot of effective SF, the idea of Australia growing more desert-like is not hard to imagine at all. And it's not too hard to imagine humanity growing more feral alongside such conditions. It's ultimately about finding ways to survive an environment that's hostile towards the sustenance of human life. And again, that's part of what Australia can really be like.
Air burst weapons leave very little radioactivity. The heat, the prompt gammas and the blast do the damage. There aren't that many neutrons to activate material and all the bomb residue goes up in the plume to land somewhere else.
Cities require civilisation level infrastructure to exist at scale. Nobody lived in Rome after the empire fell and war and famine wrecked all the food and water supplies.
@@rianmccarthy2474 Less people lived in Rome after the empire fell but people still lived there. And with Rome we are talking about centuries of decay. In the Mad Max verse its +- 25 years. There would at the very least be scavengers around.
A lot of people have an extremely unrealistc understanding of fallout. Guessing its a holdover from the cold war nuclear hysteria. Radiation from fallout, from an atomic explosion does not last very long. In fact, the worst is over in weeks, even from a hydrogen bomb. The nuclear war happened 15 years before thunderdome. I think what they were getting at by going back to the city was some sappy notion of keeping hope that civilization could be remade. But of course these kids would have no idea and I think its a poor ending.
It doesn't take much to throw humanity back in the stone age. Our manufacturing & supply lines are very fragile. Most people with knowledge to build things would be dead. Forcing the rest of humanity to relearn millennia's of knowledge and innovation.
They have someone who creates fuel and lights from organic matter, not to mention the guy who built a small plane. They'll be fine. It seems someone didn't watch the movie very well.
How so? This is an entirely different group of survivors. I think your confusion comes from the fact that actor Bruce Spence played a pilot in both films, but they’re not the same character.
@JoeKlunder1 By the way, we discover in the end of Mad Max 2 that the intro and finale voice-over character is actually the Ferile Boy, not the 'gyrocaptain'. ("As for me, I grew to manhood. In the fullness of t ime I became leader, chief of the Great Northern Tribe"). It is he, the Ferile Boy, who had said that the Gyrocaptain became their new leader, and that they never saw Max again. Our only possible conclusion in response to what scruffnutz said is that either (i) yes, it's a plothole, an inconsistency or (ii) that MAX is saying 'YOU! You got a plane" to someone who is not the gyrocaptain and whom he doesn't think is the gyrocaptain. Number (ii) is a little weak and strange, and it probably isn't what really happened, what really happened is probably an error/plothole, but it is a possible 'fan healing' of the plothole!!! LOL

@@chrisreynolds1619 yeah, probably
Sort of. It really depends on location. There are probably plenty of places that weren't hit by nukes. That being said, anything is possible.

@@comicbookreviewer4856 And then there was Fury Road.
But remember; hope is a mistake. If you can’t fix what’s broken, you’ll go insane.
@@comicbookreviewer4856 that's because Fury Road ignited a new timeline that ignored the 1981-85 films; it was a sequel reboot.

Why would they leave an oasis for a radiated city?
It’s set fifteen years after the War. Chances are the city is habitable enough to grow food and there are enough water sources to sustain a large population. If you ask me, those kids will build their own equivalent of the Great Northern Tribe mentioned in the second film.
Plus they have Master with them now, who is very smart, to help them rebuild their society.

Life, yes, but not necessarily a long life-span.
Not really, it’s happened to two cities already.
Great work in figuring out that this is not a documentary.
Realistically there would still be people living in those cities. Cities are not going to become devoid of life in +- 25 years

Still an improvement over modern Sydney

So why didn’t they go get the rest of the kids at the oasis? Did they not have enough airplane fuel?
