Complete MAD MAX Timeline Recapped
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 июн 2024
- With FURIOSA upon us, I decided to revisit the previous Mad Max movies and see how they all fit together! For reference, I used the Mad Max: Fury Road prequel comic that ties Fury Road in with the events of the first three movies. In this video, I present the timeline uninterrupted then at the end, I chime in with some thoughts on the timeline inconsistencies / how well things really fit together.

DO NOT, MY FRIENDS, BECOME ADDICTED TO TIMELINE RECAPS-FOR IT WILL TAKE HOLD OF YOU, AND YOU WILL RESENT ITS ABSENCE
😂😂😂
I FEAR NOT TIMELINE VIDEOS
FOR I WATCH A GREATER BEAST
6-8 HOUR VIDEO GAME ESSAYS!
This will tide me over nicely, rho
I’m an addict!!😅😂
Ten thousand timelines I've come across this comment. Ten thousand times, I've liked it.
The ambiguity is paramount when talking about such a devestating events that erase much of the history and current knowledge. It's our thing to obsess about accurates dates when those will probably be ever known.... And i like it that way.
One of my favorite Theories for MAD MAX is that Max's irradiation caused his cells to reach near perfect Homeostasis making him Biologically Immortal letting him be 80, 90, or even a Hundred Years old by the time of Furry Road and I absolutely love it, it gives him FAR more time to fester on his anger and hate, letting him be far more insane or MAD then one would be from such relatively short times in the Wastes.
And now it’s my favorite theory as well lmfao yeah this would awesome
And gives Miller a lot more story to tell too!
This is awesome!
Furry road LMFAO
@@the_car_guy5915lolololol
“The chain on those cuffs is made of high tensile steel, it’ll take ya 10 minutes to hack through it with this,” holds up hacksaw; “now if you’re lucky you can hack through your ankle in 5 minutes.”
James Wan credits this as the inspiration for the iconic scene in Saw.
Game over.
You're mad man.... you think i look silly don't ya??? Haha
Mannnnn this is the first time I’m truly learning the lore of the mad max saga. This is a brilliant world building rich with theology, sociology, and psychology. Wow wow wow
YES! idk why but the mad max series has always been so slept on. I hope eventually that’ll change with the new Furiosa movie.
The thing you should understand is though, this video is very wrong. There is NO mad max timeline, we dont even know for sure if the "Max" in each story is the same guy. Its supposed to be a legend, campfire stories people tell after the world falls.
@@UrialTheDarkOne You're wrong. The video is absolutely correct. There is also another great video that describes the timeline from the first movie.
ruclips.net/video/Sv5ZGi_Pn5M/видео.html
@@UrialTheDarkOneFortunately for us, an Author's intent for their work isn't the only interpretation of their work. A timeline exists, thanks to myriad works in the universe.
And, Miller no longer controls Mad Max, so his initial intentions are irrelevant at this point. 🤷🏻♂️
It's the best post pox eclipse (that's what the kids call it) series IMO. I always wanted a post Judgement Day Terminator but we got Salvation and it was okay but not great.
This story has real lore. Miller is a true artist. An amazing story teller with broad skills.
Case in point: Happy Feet and Happy Feet 2. Two odd films. Especially the second one. Made for kids but also fucking nuts. And wonderful.
That might be considered a fluke if not for Babe Pig in the City. It's the most unique creative film I've ever seen. I LOVES it. I used to watch it with me wife. She loved the little kitten.
Then we had a little one ourselves. Now I'm divorced and lonely but I still have max.
Miller said there is no timeline. He wanted max to be a legend, a folk tale you tell around a fire. Those stories never have a time line just a tale that captures the imagination.
Miller is factually incorrect
@@realityisenough miller incorrect? The guy who made the movie? You should let him know.
Kinda like the chronicles of conan
Clearly, Mad Max is an epic, and epics often start in the middle. We know that Max wasn't always so mad, and the nuclear holocaust sets the story in motion. There is no clear end, but there definitely is a beginning and a middle. So there is a time-line, whether we like it or not.
yep he’s a campfire legend. tall tale. wasteland legend
The Road Warrior, an early 80's movie with a villain (Wez) having a twink boyfriend, was ahead of its time.
*In India 🇮🇳 every Gangsta has twink boyfriend.*
yeah, cause being a dude with a twink boyfriend is so 'kewl'?
@@pajeetkumar1645 Good for you!!! That's awesome!
His not a twink boyfriend but an groomed and abused rape victim. Oh wait, I guess it was ahead of its time 😂
If they did that now, the Tate/Rogan incels would be calling for a boycott.
What a day. What a lovely day... for a new OneTake video!
Good one😅😅
Thats on my mind so much too 😂
Planet of the apes?
There was a theory that Hardy's Max was the Feral Child, I believe -- who simply took on the name & 'mission' of someone he looked up to, who was already semi-legendary when the Child was young- I wasn't too sure how that stacked up against what would come with Fury Road, & now the semi-prequel of Furiosa...
The feral kid is the narrator at the beginning and end of MM2
yeah this theory was shut down by George Miller years ago, Tom Hardy and Mel are one and the same character
I believe it's also implied since Fury Road Max is obviously younger than Thunderdome Max, Fury Road happens before Thunderdome and after The Road Warrior. So yeah, the Feral Child theory makes little sense.@@thisbubblygoodness7611
@@chao5996Also, Fury Road takes place after the 2015 game (it was recently confirmed to be canon by George), but also, when Max hallucinates in Fury Road, the kid you see is Glory, a character from the game.
Not to be an ass, but you left out the most important part of The Road Warrior (MM2) - the people didn't follow the tanker. Only a fighting force. The rest of the people went the other way ... with a bus ... which is where they hid the actual gasoline. The tanker was loaded with sand. It was a decoy.
Edit: the video still was great - I gave it a thumbs up.
Fair, always a balancing act to figure out the essential details / how much to simplify
@@OneTakeVids👍
OneTake, since you are "explaining" the timeline which is nothing more than giving a " this happened and then that happened" account of the movies, and miss such an obvious reveal in a movie such as the tanker being filled with sand and the busses filled with the gasoline, especially when the Feral kid who is the one narrating these details at the very end of The Road Warrior movie, and then stating "Fair, always a balancing act to figure out the essential details / how much to simplify" when it was literally told to us as an audience, you may want to step up your game or think of a new profession. Absolutely the worst breakdown of a movie and excuse for missing details ever.
And what does this change on the overall Story?
@@AwesomeBuford C'mon, man. He acknowledged the message. The matter is settled.
i always assumed that the nuclear war took place between the 1st, and 2nd film. So, by the time we meet Max, the Gryo Captain, Papagllo, the global conflict, had already occurred. In the Road Warrior, there are a few oblique references to this. Humongous says, we all lost someone we loved, which I took to be a reference to the global war and its effects. No one in the refinery for example, ever mentions any kind of organized, civil government or society that might still exist or be functioning either in Aus, or anywhere else. In the RW, we can we safely assume that what gov't that still existed in Mad Max falls between the events of MM and the RW and AS a result, of either a limited, or full nuclear war. In Beyond Thunderdome we see fallout from that event is still easily detectable in groundwater.
The timeline could look like any of these:
M.Max > Road Warrior > Global Nuclear War > Thunderdome
or
M.Max > Limited Nuclear War > Road Warrior > Global Nuclear War > Thunderdome
or
M.Max > Global Nuclear War > Road Warrior > Thunderdome
Also the back of Humungus head looks like radiation scars and hair falling out
@@mikewood4242 I think there was no nuclear war it was just that society collapsed
@@mikewood4242 Another piece of evidence that suggests Humungous was either in near proximity to some kind of nuclear blast, or more likely, that his missing hair was the result of fallout exposure in the aftermath of the war. It is also possible, he was disfigured as a result of the chaos in the collapse, but, I think your observation about his missing hair is strong(er) evidence of radiation damage.
@@champisthebunny6003 george miller has stated the movie is post apocalyptic but not post nuclear
@@champisthebunny6003 It makes sense he was, given he was in the military, and the USSR targeted NATO bases, Australia included. I also think the nuclear exchange occurs between the 1st, and 2nd film, given the general terrible state of things, countries used their last resort...
Well done 👏 Gil you got it nailed down. Under 1 hour and hit all the story beats!
Keep it up and keep them coming man. Your channel and these types of videos are absolute gold
Just watching this to help me mentally prepare for the coming bad times.
You're gonna need it.
bad times?
@@Gangster_God
I have a book explaining why the 1980's are going to be the downfall of civilization.
Well OK so things didn't quite work out Luke the book predicted.
Great video! Loved the way you incorporated the movies and comics. I watched the movies recently but still found the overview very helpful.
this was so captivating to watch dude. excellent work! Cant wait to watch your other stuff now
Please never stop doing this ❤
A BIG TAHNK YOU for AMAZING JOB you did to put all this together!
Great tone and pace. Well done!
Thank you for all your efforts.... you've put this all in in a good relative perspective… its been a long time since walking out of that plaza cinema in 1980 as a freshman in high school and loving every adrenaline moment of that original film, Mad Max. Thanks again. ;)
Thank you so much for putting it all together! I watched all the MM from before but did not understand Fury Road and had not read the comics. Now I get it. Awesome work!! And I hope to see the Interceptor once again in the dystopian future.
Very good video, but I miss the Mad Max game (2015) which is not just a good Mad Max product, it's one of the best open-world games of all time. I am so sad it never got the recognition it deserves. It needs a sequel! I would play it anyday!
I remember not enjoying it to much back in 2015 due to just being burnt out of open world games. But I recently picked it up again and have been having a blast. Absolute shame we will probably never get a sequel
I used to play this while talking to my ex so lol not so many good memories
@@deloreandmc88bros trauma dumping on a mad max video lmao 😂
I thought it was a cool game but it was definitely very repetitive, I ended up very bored and pretty directionless after 10 hours of playing.
Except they can't pronounce Dinky Di
Well done, man. Thank you.
Loved your planet of the apes timeline, so I am bingeing and subscribed
Same💯🙏😎
OMG. I actually thought to comment on the Planet of the Apes video to suggest a Mad Max recap. Now here it is!! 🎉
💯🙏😎
Algorithm says "hi"
So cool they can keep all those high performance cars running in the apocalypse
Great recap, thanks so much! 👍
I figured in the mad max story line movie was someone else's point of view of max like the helicopter pilot or bardertown master even the lost boy kids. I say that only because max never ends his own story its always someone else remembering him.
I never knew how these all connected and now I do! Thanks for the breakdown and explaination!
Well done. Great pacing and great visuals. 👍
Fantastic video, the movies are brilliant and never get old
Thank you for the video really enjoyed it
Hot damn 👍🏾 great job retelling the series
The Max in Fury Road is the feral boy in Mad max 2. It's indicated by the music box, boomerang, and his lack of speech and more grunts. I'm assuming he named himself after his hero
Thunderdome takes place 20 years after Mad Max according to the novelization of Thunder Dome
Yeah, I thought that took place at the end of the timeline, and Fury Road was before it since Max doesnt look old and grey.
@@AlphaProto There is a belief that Tom Hardy Max is actually the Feral Child.
@@alansharpe5523 And that is completely wrong.Feral kid became leader of the great northern tribe.He said that at the end of Road Warrior
@@mikewood4242 It begs the question how Tom Hardy has the music box. Just seems a weird choice to both add that then also claim that Hardy is not the Feral Child. And how hesitant the character is to give a name. There are a lot of weird choices made that make things less than clear cut.
@robotetanus It's an Easter egg.Like when Max is tied to the car as blood bag and you see the gyro captain skull fall
They can bring in who ever they want,but without that car you don't have a mad max movie.
And that’s a fact .
Word
@jose: The franchise is about the legend of Mad Max. That stupid car, like all the vehicles, is a perk/eye candy; not a feature.
True @@MorpheusOne
the car that gets destroyed instantly in fury road? yeah it’s still mad max. but god damn I love that car
Huge thanks Gil. 🙏🏻
You’re welcome! 🙏
This is a good video, the comic helps to tie in the story together leading up to the Fury Road
It was awsome, thank you.
Thanks for sharing 👍🏾
Thanks for this.
Holy fuck. You're brilliant mate. Hope you have much success.
this was great
Very well done.
I always thought that Johnny Boy ended being the Lord Humungus.
Great Video dude.
Thank you
No he has foot
Nah, Goose is who I think Humongus was. He has full body burns, they have police vehicles, and if you look at the revolver Humongus uses, it looks similar to the ones the force uses.
@Arkansan_Rebel yes dude. It does makes sense. The twist of fate in the wasteland
@@Arkansan_Rebel that was the original idea
Dope I just finished the ape video which was a good recap so this one will, be a good video
Just did the same route. Fantastic Random on the recommendation page
Love this video
Mel Gibson is MadMax, the Road Warrior, Raggaty Man
The timeline is even more wacky with Furiosa. The first trailer for the movie states that young Furiosa was kidnapped 45 years after the fall. Which means there’s probably another 20+ years until Fury Road. So Tom Hardy can’t be Max Rockatansky because he’d be in his 80s or 90s.
Which lends credence to the theory that this Max is the feral kid from The Road Warrior.
Or you could go with the theory that these are all just folk tales passed down which get murkier and murkier with every retelling.
The feral kid becomes the chief of the Great Northern Tribe.
So no.
He is the feral kid he has the exact same toy music box that max gave the little kid in MM2 an the war boys called him a feral as well. He only says his name his max at the end when asked. He his the feral kid
@@stevebrightmore4937 The feral kid is the leader of the Great Northern Tribe... so no
When was the northern tribe established? If there is no specific time, one could believe this could be the feral kid. His age, and vocabulary (he grunts a lot) line up.
He could become the tribe leader later in life.
@colincooper532 Max grunts in road warrior. He's known as being feral. Doesnt speak much in 1 either. Hardys just imitating Gibson.
In Thunderdome, guzzoline is very rare. Cars are pulled by animals etc. They only drive at the end.
Max has been on the road for decades now.
As for the feral kid.
He doesn't say "I grew up to be the leader of the great Northern Tribe... oh, and prior to that I cosplayed as Max for a few years."
That kid grows up to be a leader. He never sees Max again. The story is told.
He's probably added a few bits over the years. Exaggerated. Made the story better as he tells the other members of the tribe.
But it's always his story.
Speaking of the conclusion part of the video (39:35) The world fell over 30 years ago. That doesn't mean that they aren't counting days before Mad Max 1. If anything the world fell years before the original Mad Max and that part of the world with Max and the MFP were the only ones hanging on to some semblance of the old world. For all we know the entire world was already a war torn wasteland during the events of the first film. Or, they are counting the days since a single event happened that caused the world to go to shit, that could have happened 10 or even 20 years before Mad Max.
nicely done cheers
We'll See you on the Road Skag!! We'll See you like we saw Knightrider!! That part still gets me amped. 😤
greatest timeline explanation there is
Beyond Thunderdome was my favorite of them all. I don't understand how it had bad reviews but I loved that film as a kid. Fury Road is another one and I can't wait for the sequel.
I wonder if you love it because you were a kid. I love it too, but I was maybe 11 the first time I saw it, so maybe that nostalgia is what I love.
Good video 👍👍
Thank you!🙏
just perfect, no pot holes left!!!
max was so fueled with madness after his family, it permanently changed his dna to fully embody madness, itself becoming madness incarnate, living forever in a never ending release of rage that will never end, cursed to roam the earth taking it out on the harsh fury road. Naw im high as hell right now 😂
I’m high as hell reading this 😂😂😂
That's very thorough
You sound like adam corrola haha
Keep up the good work!
Super, thank you
I was expecting things to be messier that's more cohesive than I thought. I love a good timeline breakdown.
I literally was looking for this timeline 2 days ago and was so pissed no one had 1 on RUclips.
Mad Max bible made an indepth 2 part video on it a few years ago. He would most likely make a new video after the release of furiosa since a lot of people still think that the new films take place 40 years after the 80s but it actually takes place 40 years after the 2010s.
You legit should check out the stuff founded in Mad Max Bible as it's really insightful beyond the stories the films make Mad Max Timeline. Glad more people are diving into this series with the new release around the corner.
There's a fan theory that the radiation slowed Max's aging so it's the same Max, he's just been warped by the wasteland.
I watched this whole video thinking the voice was AI, mostly because of how he pronounced semi as "Sem-me". But nope, actual dude. Well done old bean. Have a sub.
Fate brought me here.
Was talking to a friend about Mad Max and got curious if anyone had done a video essay on them all and hell.
This was uploaded yesterday
Compared to the last one this one looks like a CGI nightmare, please don’t disappoint
Thank you
I need more mad max stories 100% fury road was so well done we definitely need more especially tom hardy's Mad Max ❤
What about the game? Some Reporters said that the new Furiosa Movie referenced the game, so its kinda canon, I dont remember the source but it has sense as we battle Scrotus, Inmortal Joe son, and its mentioned he killed Dr. Dementus, the villain of this new film.
Not to be an ass, but you left out the most important part of The Road Warrior (MM2) - the people didn't follow the tanker. Only a fighting force. The rest of the people went the other way ... with a bus ... which is where they hid the actual gasoline. The tanker was loaded with sand.
subbed thank you sir yes sir
I was first watching the mad max movies as a kid and i was confused as hell that the gyro capt from the road warrior and the pilot from thunder dome werent the same person even though bith played by Bruce Spence and both were pilots. The first time i saw thunder dome in the beginning i was like WTF why is he robbing Max. He saved his life in road warrior. It still drives me crazy
Just watched Furiosa. Really sad at the beginning. Enjoyed the movie Furiosa today. Worth the $8.75 a ticket.
8$? Where do u live and where did u watch it lol, 29$ here in Ontario
@@TheRealBatCave Watched it at Flippers Cinema and Arcade on Taft Street in Hollywood, FL.
For some reason I always thought Blaster was Benno from the first movie. And because Max recognized Benno again, he spared his life.
can't wait for Furiosa
one more week
Well for a start.. Max is NOT a hero, it’s a good hearted guy, caught in the dissolving society , a guy trying to survive and failing to save many people that he loved. I think on the last movie they summarise this very well, he is just reduce to a simple instinct now.. to survive
Thanks Gil
i always thought the bush pilot was the pilot guy in thunderdome (same actor but same character) and the kid was the feral boy as a regular kid now lol
The newest entry in the series, absent from this video is the best one of all!!!!
I love how max sets up a full on saw trap
You cant talk about MAX without talking about the great Mel Gibson
We are not worthy of this brilliant series!🙌
I like how the captain wears a tie while watering his plants
"Their leaders talked and talked and talked, but nothing could stem the avalanche."
What about the 2015 video game?!
The game seems to be an alternate retelling of the comic storyline
Amazing game. Only complain when you a 100% your magnum.Opus there's no outpost no enemies to attack
@@davidd.6448It is confirmed to be canon though by the director of the upcoming Furiosa movie. + Chumbucket will make an appearance. Also, I'm quite certain that in the scene Max is hallucinating in Fury Road, he briefly hallucinates Glory, from the game.
You’re right. I love that.
Max actually got over to the US, working on a caravan that was trekking to The Hub on the west coast of America via the exposed seabed and is seen going into the Scumm Bar in Junktown, southern California, along with his dog.
Kind of wish you’d include the video game… but this was great!! Thank you 😁
I’ll add it in v2.0 when I incorporate Furiosa!
I thought the whole thing was just multiple people having similar adventures, all get mixed together in the chaos of time.
Just went to gas town yesterday!
Looking forward to Furiosa. She will be a hero.
Great video I love Mad Max films and I've often wondered about the lore. It is a shame that Mel Gibson didn't do Fury Road as it would have worked perfectly in the sense of an older Max still wandering the wastelands that said Tom Hardy did a great job of playing Max
13:48 Ahh, yes tempt Max with the coast, a region he left after the first movie, probably for reasons. But also similar to in Fury Road when he knows there's nothing but sand wastlands in one direction, salt flats in another (seems the sea-level dropped, possibly the salt flats, at least based on the game)
New subscriber here👋 please do a Friday the 13 th complete time line if possible( just like the Halloween time line you did) thanks
I always wondered what became of the tribe of kids that stayed behind in Thunder-dome.
41:20 so more or less Moorecock's Eternal Hero. Makes a sort of sense.
i have always thought of max from fury road and the kid from 2 with the boomerang, the fact it says there they never met again yet helicopter guy and him are in beyond the thunderdome means its all a little fluid, and also, if you take the story as 10 years between each one, then that might put the young lad at the approximate correct age, leading to a now immortal Max that is multiple people wandering different parts of australia, would also explain his hesitnce to tell anyone his name, as he wasnt quite ready to put on the mantle of the road warrior
It got to my mind the idea to write an epic poem about the legendary mythology of Mad Max lore, something reminiscing the ancient civilization of Australia, maybe how some marine gods enraged by the greed of humans on oil took all the seas away from them leaving only sands and dunes. Narrating of the tales of the gods, the heroes (like Max) and the humans like Homer or Ossian
The first movie was the best!
Could you do an (Aliens and Predator full timeline) pls!!!
I also read a fan-based theory that Emil Minty's Feral Kid was Hardy's Max. Many clues in Fury Road hint at Minty beginning as an adult version of Max, and before he returns to become the leader of the Great Northern Tribe, he has many adventures. Gibson's Max may have become some Apocalpyptic knight or Samurai, roaming the wasteland while battling many evil foes. Thus, many "adapt" his look (the Bronze leather uniforms or pieces, including surviving look-alike V8 Interceptors). I know Miller has rejected this idea, but this fan-based concept tightens things up for the MM timeline.
I took it as the nuclear war distorted Time Space and by Thunderdome Max was close to 100. Those that were alive before the war are ancient having been closer to where the time distortion took place. Where events out in the wasteland moved at a different rate. So what seemed to Max as 30 years was more like 60 years out in the waste.
