Sooo ... Did Mel warn you 'bout ALL the Pedos in holly~weird? Is it true brother? C'mon man, Set the record straight once & for all. Maculy culkin & "gimme a million $$$' Cory wont do it BUT Mel is on record saying 'oh Hell yeah! Children are currency in holly~hell.' Pleeeez!🙏👶☝👶🙏 Thank you in Advance! 💃🌟💋🏆💕🎖💖🥇
I think you are not a baby Bon jovi but are a small George Lynch from Dokken the hair is eerily similar. It's cool to comment to the "feral boy" from Road Warrior
@733Rafael your comments suggest you didn't watch properly or have no empathy if you don't understand how important the dog is to John Wick, every bit as much as Max's dog is. I like John Wick, to me it makes perfect sense within the world they've created (a ludicrous world where 1 in 20 people in New York is a secret assasin etc)
I am from Venezuela and the only thing you got wrong was that we don't use badass leather jackets because it's too damn hot and they are too expensive to buy. But yeah the country is pretty much your typical fallout game or Mad Max movie at this point
At least I don't have to deal with Jihadists Motherfuckers who are so deep in their closets that they are trapped in fucking Narnia/SJW's cucks/feminist bitches because people don't waste time and money on that when they are starving to death (which is literal in some cases because you can see kids of 5 or 6 years old in their bones scavenging the trash for something to eat)
You need to up your game bro. Go kill a leopard and wear his face as a hat. You could make a jacket out of a Guatemalan, they're already leathery, but you might need 2 of them if you're taller than 4 feet.
Fun fact: the guy who played the chopper pilot was so starved and sick during filming that he could barely leap up from the ambush hole in his first scene. That guy deserves a frickin' medal.
wait wait wait ... that stunt ... was a fuck-up? And the guy came back to film again after basicly planting his head looney tunes style in the side of a hill? Someone get that man suegery ... because it's a clinical imossibility to walk around with balls that big.
As a young teenager, I saw Road Warrior on US release, in a theater. I can tell you it hit us like a... speeding oil tanker. To use an overused word, it was "epic." Even those who knew about Mad Max - a pretty select group, back then - were not expecting such a balls-out violent, deliriously stylized, gloriously shameless yet poignant tale of heroism, cynicism, loss and redemption. (Pause for a sick guitar riff. This was the 80s, remember.) Razor is right, as usual, about that final chase. Real drivers, real vehicles, 100% practical effects. Likely the best scene of its kind ever filmed. Every kid I knew memorized Humungous' Just Walk Away speech. A fella, a quick fella, might even try to duplicate the rasping Scandi accent. Cinema gold, from an era that will never return. Thanks for the vid, Razor.
that era could return in this time we're in now of sterilized, generic, baby soft soy soaked recycled knock offs that era could return if the real men of today do what them aussies did when they made Mad Max on a shoestring budget
The thing about these movies that always shatters my suspension of disbelief is that the post apocalypse roads are in better shape than the ones around my home. You can still see the lines painted on them! Who's wandering the wasteland repainting the lines and filling in pot holes? Giant Radioactive Mutant Cockroach Road Repair Crews! I want to see that movie.
Fun Fact: The stunt where that one car jumps into the moat around the Refinery went horribly wrong and one of the stuntmen was injured. In a later stunt, one involving an overturned dune buggy and a motorcycle, that stuntman was *also* injured, and did a sick-ass front flip. Also, the pink car that gets roasted is a DeSoto, *not* a Cadillac.
Firstly, you're my damned hero (I just discovered you.) Secondly, I love this film and a few years ago I made it a Thanksgiving tradition to watch it every year that day. My two sons asked me, "Why The Road Warrior on Thanksgiving?" to which I replied, "Aren't you thankful we don't live like that?" Razorfist, you rock! (But you already knew that...)
"Buckshot ball massage." Razorfist has the best one-liners. Road Warrior is one of the greatest films of all time, it has more storytelling in any given 10 minute segment than most films these days have in their entirety. The intro alone is a masterclass in film making.
You can tell just how badly Miller wanted Fury Road to be a rehash of The Road Warrior when you compare the major plot points of the two: -Max is own his own, wandering aimlessly, growing progressively crazier and more detached, and stumbles onto the antagonist's men and runs afoul of them entirely by circumstance -He gets roped into aiding a more morally upstanding group, for the most part against his will, as they attempt to escape from the antagonist with a precious resource in tow, initially helping them only for his own sake, but eventually coming to actually, even if only somewhat, give a shit about helping them. -The antagonist is a hulking, charismatic warlord who holds command over his minions as much with his philosophy and his ability to communicate it as he does with his might. -He ends up gaining an ally in the form of a shifty, mentally unstable weirdo who had previously trapped him and attempted to rob, use, and otherwise kill him, who ends up redeeming himself and aids him invaluably during the final battle. -Said final battle involves a massive, epic car chase centered around Max in a tanker, culminating in the death of the antagonist and his violent yet simple-minded second-in-command. -After seeing his temporary allies off, Max disappears back into the wastes, essentially in exactly the same way he started the movie, but now with his conscience and soul put at ease for having helped those he could. Take away a few incidental changes, and that's essentially the exact same plot. The only difference is that Fury Road insisted on a surplus of X chromosomes (though, hilariously enough, it's only because of the two characters with cocks that the "action bitches" manage to actually accomplish anything, but we'll get to that soon enough). And try as he might have, Miller simply couldn't capture the same feeling of the film that inspired so many franchises across so many mediums. He got it right the first time, though, and fuck, did he ever.
Aeryn Sun is the easy choice for me. Holy fucking shit, the second you see her it makes sense where the Claudia Black bandwagon came from. Although every woman in the show ny on was incredibly attractive. Probably to do with having a personality and getting shit done (y)
It's a post-apocalyptic retelling of the Illaid, right down to Achilles and Petroclus. Things don't entirely line up, true, but I put that down to the imaginative retelling.
And a 50's retrofuturistic aesthetic. And robots. And mutated wildlife. And the remnants of the government resurfacing to commit genocide. And shelters full of people returning to the surface to try and rebuild. And whole new republics, legions, gangs and cults emerging in the wake of the apocalypse. So.. yeah. It's "just" Mad Max with more raiders. If you ignore literally everything about Fallout that isn't inspired by Mad Max (one of several films that inspired it).
Mad Max sits right next to Escape from New York for me, both dance near the edge of what you can imagine would be amazing but never fully realize it.... mind you mad max comes a lot closer than anything Plisken ever actually put on screen but neither world was ever done proper justice IMO
Man this movie is still awesome, and thanks for the sweet tribute to Emer Prevost Razorfist, rest in peace Emer :( Also surprised you didn't make any Fist of the North Star jokes, since well....this movie was what "inspired" the franchise, as much as I love Fist of the North Star yeah it owes a lot to this movie
I spent 4 days driving through the roads Mad Max was filmed on a week ago.It is some of the most desolate country ,and hot as fuck.Truly kept my sphincter clenched the whole time,hoping not to break down or meet Wez and Humungous.
rip mate I will never forget how you helped me out in getting fallout 3 to work on my pc and also when playing a few matches on L4D. Wasn't much of an experience but you were still a great guy. You will be missed
I was pretty bummed when they thrashed The Last V-8 in the new one. It was just a brutal kick in the teeth. Not only that, they destroy it twice in the same fucking movie. The only comfort I can take from it is the fact that supposedly Mad Max is more of a "legend" than an actual person, kind of a cop out but the director basically said that leaves the setting and character open for essentially infinite stories. I think Tom Hardy did a decent job so I wouldn't be that upset if they did another one with him.
My friend Jeremy does Wasteland Weekend fairly regularly, and apparently so does Major-Mowhawk who even has his own interceptor. There you go, that's a thing you now know.
I'm old and remember this. The original Mad Max was pretty much released and forgotten, then Road Warrior came out which not only launched the franchise, but resuscitated the first movie. I saw both at a $1 theater double feature that didn't much care what you smoked in there in St Louis. Amazing movie and stunt work.
David Jaffy DEFINITELY lost his virginity to this movie...and it promptly never called'em back, which explains why his entire Twisted Metal series is him building a stalker shrine to the damn movie.
"seventeen phylums" :D I'm surprised you didn't note how that boomerang kid is totally proto-Gau. Nice with the Metal Gear gag and the Boomer Kuwanger reference, though!
I can already see that the design philosophy for the Mad Max game was. It was in 2,3 or 4 and it looks cool. Add it to the game. I do like that they revive the interceptor in the game for to be immediatly torched anyway
alucard624 yea, but youll have one fuck of a time getting there. WB fucked up the code BIG TIME. if it wasnt for finding a way to cheat the game, I would have never beat it. Its a badass game, but god damn does it have flaws.
I beat it with no need for that. Did you play it on PC? It was glitchy as hell on PC from what I've read. On console it was ok after the map glitch patch was put out.
Actually, what had happened was Fury Road was in Development Hell for the longest time, at minimum at least ten years. The way things worked out, Warner Bros had a proprietary right & access to a lot of the concept art & background story concepts Miller & acquaintances had fleshed out. This permitted them to produce a video game using a lot of concepts Miller had developed for Fury Road, but never actually confirmed if it were canon or not. Warner Bros had those concepts implemented as part of the background history of the world of Mad Max game, like the isea tge wasteland is actually the dried up beds of the world's oceans, which have evaporated. If you think about it, this concept actually makes sense of some things in Fury Road, like how is it that Immortan Joe's Citadel came to be? Well imagine that at one time most of it was submerged in water. Gas town is actually an oceanic oil rig, etc.
2:46 - Then he went on to be Ransik in Power Rangers giving them all the excuse they need to do a shameless and goofy Road Warrior parody in one episode. Small world :3
One, the Lord Humungus was Swedish. Two, that picture you used of him with Hillary is actually a bad ass cosplayer named Jim "Tank" Dorsey. Three, well done as usual.
One of the great sequels ever. Not quite the story that the first had, but it went a long way in helping solidify the image of the character as a cinema icon.
I had an infuriating moment a couple years back while watching Road Warrior in 35mm (which you MUST do if you get the chance, it looks like Lawrence of Arabia). Turns out there's a subtle but important difference btw the AUS version and the US one. The editing is slightly different at the end of the final chase when Pappagallo shouts "Come on, jump! We've won!" In the US version, he's shouting it to the feral kid, but in the original version, he's saying it TO MAX. So in the original, Pappagallo is a man of his word and even though he has tricked Max out of caution and desperation, he still seeks to save him. The lesson being that Max's nihilism is misplaced and he should have embraced the colonists' hope all along. In the altered US version, Pappagallo is just another opportunist of the wasteland, and Max's nihilism is well-founded and correct. The lesson being you can't trust anybody. In other words, the US release was purposely changed to rob Max of a proper hero's arc.
That stuntman with the bike crash actually rebroke his femur screwing that stunt up. A year previous he'd broken it and the doctor put pins in the bone. He later was the stunt director for Fury Road and now is a spokesman for a line of knee braces.
i dunno how close you and emer where (fuck could have just been a subscriber for all i know) but if you guys were i'm sorry for your loss man. Thank you for this video, high quality and insufferably snarky as ever, it's what he would have wanted.
I always thought that he KNEW he was the decoy. I'd always assumed it was his idea, even. At the very least, it would have been real hard for him to miss them loading the 55 gallon drums of fuel onto their escape bus...
immikeurnot my impression is that the plan had been concocted... and the drums in vehicles and the sand in the tanker... well before Max ever showed up.
Damn, Razor. Eclipse and Anthem just seems to be some of the best shit to open your videos with and get pumped up. Can't wait to use some of their stuff to run a Metal Starfinder rpg.
Ok, this video has officially made this my new favorite channel on RUclips. I laughed my ass off watching this video and will now watch every video on this channel
Fun fact for those of you of the Power Ranger Time force fandom, Lord Humongous is none other than Ransik, leader of the mutants and overall badass bad guy who fights the rangers out of hatred for humanity and their rejection of his kind. Later on in Time Force theirs an episode that is a straight up homage to the road warrior where him and the blue ranger have a literal fucking death race! Complete with post apocalyptic vehicle's! FUCK YEAH!
While late to the party: for those who were unaware the tanker roll over was the first time a stunt team had ever successfully rolled a semi trailer on film. So yeah that truck crash, fucking real and fucking worth every frame.
Rewatching for the first time in a while and I just wanna say beyond loving this review I’m still badly missing Emer Prevost. I’m still so glad I got him Ralph Bakshi’s American Pop on his wishlist and that he really enjoyed it. He was a fantastic guy and a HELL of a great film critic.
I’m honoured to be called a BABY BON JOVI lol
Pretty damn funny and the video is clever, well done 👏
I'm surprised no one has recognized you in this comment section, your acting in that film was superb.

-The antagonist is a hulking, charismatic warlord who holds command over his minions as much with his philosophy and his ability to communicate it as he does with his might.
-He ends up gaining an ally in the form of a shifty, mentally unstable weirdo who had previously trapped him and attempted to rob, use, and otherwise kill him, who ends up redeeming himself and aids him invaluably during the final battle.
-Said final battle involves a massive, epic car chase centered around Max in a tanker, culminating in the death of the antagonist and his violent yet simple-minded second-in-command.
-After seeing his temporary allies off, Max disappears back into the wastes, essentially in exactly the same way he started the movie, but now with his conscience and soul put at ease for having helped those he could.

I think it's the peak of the series, honestly.
I watched this so, so many times on HBO growing up. Forbidden fruit and all that.
Razorfist yelling "Buckshot Ball-massage!" is going to be my ring-tone.
A hard hitting biopic detailing the X Games of Australia.

You mean a mad max movie can use the title character as the MAIN character?!?!?!???!

It's a post-apocalyptic retelling of the Illaid, right down to Achilles and Petroclus. Things don't entirely line up, true, but I put that down to the imaginative retelling.

F--king love your reviews. Your sprinkled in jokes and social commentaries are icing on the cake.
After the DEATH WISH2 commentary this is UNQUESTIONABLY RAGEAHOLIC'S GREATEST VIDEO! I AM CRYING ENDLESS TEARS OF JOY!
Ayatollah of rocka rolla and no Chris Jericho references. You are truly a better man than I.
Inshaladay!
you made my 26th birthday Razor. this and the bottle of Sake I got to cook with
5:39 the guy in cuffs switched binocular for spyglass before but for the execution reaction shot he has the spyglass again.
I had an infuriating moment a couple years back while watching Road Warrior in 35mm (which you MUST do if you get the chance, it looks like Lawrence of Arabia). Turns out there's a subtle but important difference btw the AUS version and the US one.
The editing is slightly different at the end of the final chase when Pappagallo shouts "Come on, jump! We've won!" In the US version, he's shouting it to the feral kid, but in the original version, he's saying it TO MAX.
So in the original, Pappagallo is a man of his word and even though he has tricked Max out of caution and desperation, he still seeks to save him. The lesson being that Max's nihilism is misplaced and he should have embraced the colonists' hope all along.
In the altered US version, Pappagallo is just another opportunist of the wasteland, and Max's nihilism is well-founded and correct. The lesson being you can't trust anybody.
In other words, the US release was purposely changed to rob Max of a proper hero's arc.
Perhaps the funniest Rageaholic Cinema episode.
I should have noted this several years and 4 views ago.
What a friday morning treat, Mr. Fist.
can you please, please for the love of Lemmy make that intro sequence into a full on vid for that song?
That stuntman with the bike crash actually rebroke his femur screwing that stunt up. A year previous he'd broken it and the doctor put pins in the bone. He later was the stunt director for Fury Road and now is a spokesman for a line of knee braces.
i dunno how close you and emer where (fuck could have just been a subscriber for all i know) but if you guys were i'm sorry for your loss man. Thank you for this video, high quality and insufferably snarky as ever, it's what he would have wanted.
Nicely done Razorfist. After reviewing this series can you do 1981's NIGHTHAWKS please.
"Saudi spunk"! Ingenious. Just because of that line of dialogue , I subscribed. Thanks.
Vernon Wells is UNQUESTIONABLY One of the ALL-TIME Greatest & Most Under Rated Movie Villians of All-Time!
Vernon Wells has Absolutely Earned the Right To Be a James Bond Villain in 21st Century Bond!
YESSS! THANKYOU FOR THE FARSCAPE REFERENCE I LOVE YOU
P.S. ...would Ben Browder make a good Max?
I yearn for a new world, in which MovieBob and Razorfist recognise the talents in each other.
I always thought that he KNEW he was the decoy. I'd always assumed it was his idea, even.
At the very least, it would have been real hard for him to miss them loading the 55 gallon drums of fuel onto their escape bus...
immikeurnot my impression is that the plan had been concocted... and the drums in vehicles and the sand in the tanker... well before Max ever showed up.
If you pause it at 15:21, you can see bits of Wes on the radiator.
11:49 - 12:16 the saddest moment in cinema history
Damn, Razor. Eclipse and Anthem just seems to be some of the best shit to open your videos with and get pumped up. Can't wait to use some of their stuff to run a Metal Starfinder rpg.
Ok, this video has officially made this my new favorite channel on RUclips. I laughed my ass off watching this video and will now watch every video on this channel
I lost it at the "Whawassatnoise?"
"Whose footprints are these?"
Fun fact for those of you of the Power Ranger Time force fandom, Lord Humongous is none other than Ransik, leader of the mutants and overall badass bad guy who fights the rangers out of hatred for humanity and their rejection of his kind. Later on in Time Force theirs an episode that is a straight up homage to the road warrior where him and the blue ranger have a literal fucking death race! Complete with post apocalyptic vehicle's! FUCK YEAH!
That opening is the most badass thing ever
I have learned from many movies that killing a man's dog is a straight ticket to death.
Recently found your channel dude. You got great comedic style man. Loving this shit! GOOOoooddd fffuckin' speed!
While late to the party: for those who were unaware the tanker roll over was the first time a stunt team had ever successfully rolled a semi trailer on film.
So yeah that truck crash, fucking real and fucking worth every frame.
Rewatching for the first time in a while and I just wanna say beyond loving this review I’m still badly missing Emer Prevost. I’m still so glad I got him Ralph Bakshi’s American Pop on his wishlist and that he really enjoyed it. He was a fantastic guy and a HELL of a great film critic.
The ending shot of the Road Warrior is theeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee best of all time...
Thanks for the Video and double thanks for the intro song.
That mgs3 theme reference was hilarious.
