      Why do you guys love this movie so much, it’s literally not a mad max movie it sucks, it literally isnt true to the original trilogy at all, and George miller had an entirely different story in mind, until certain people made him produce this movie their way

      Absolutely! There’s so much visual storytelling on display in it too, I mean the dialogue is great when it’s there but the way the story doesn’t rely on it is just so perfect in the most George Miller way.

    I love the little moment on Furiosa's face when Max fires three warning shots instead of just blowing her head off. You can practically see the wheels turning in her head when she realizes that this guy is still human enough to be reasoned with for sparing her life even when she wouldn't have done the same for him literally five seconds earlier.

      The only thing unrealistic is how their ear will get hurt if someone shoots a round that close to a person's ear.I mean furiosa shooting him near his ear would've atleast made Max's ear ringing for few minutes or would've burst his ear drum.The same goes for Max shooting three rounds near furiosa.Still one of the best fight scenes I've ever seen in a movie.Easily one of my top ten fight scenes.

    The bit with the shotgun was always a great bit of payoff for me. Like, the audience knows the gun's broken from the sand, and they see him using it to threaten them and like, "Ah, he's bluffing." But then in the heat of the fight starting you momentarily forget, and Furiosa's annoyed look when she pulls the trigger and nothing happens is great.

    This scene is amazing. This and a lot of the action in this movie is a collection of moving parts. Instead of just Max and Furiosa you have the wives helping Furiosa when they can, as well as Nux helping Max. In addition, all the props used (the door, hose, wire cutter, gun) are either introduced before or used again after, or both. It's almost like Miller wrote the action scenes thinking "How can I get every character and every prop in the action"

Its like pro wrestling. You can see the fake shit. But there are matches that I think to myself.... Damn! He's really pissed!
      If Charlize is mad at...

  • @mongorians22
    @mongorians22 4 года назад +180

    There are two things I particularly like about this fight.
    The first is that both characters are handicapped. Furiosa through her missing arm, and Max by being chained to Nux. It makes the fight more interesting because it adds a dynamism and suspense to the battle that we know could go either way and change at any second.
    The second is the use of props and "dirty" tactics. Furiosa charges Max while he's distracted. Max tries to throw sand in her eyes. Both try to employ every possible object and advantage at their disposal in a fight for total domination. Besides making the fight more gritty and interesting, at also tells us, the audience, something about the world and the characters. Both Max and Furiosa are consummate survivors, and in this world, to be a survivor, you have to abandon all pretext of honor or fairness, to kick your opponent when they're down and keep kicking. This is communicated without a single line of dialog.
    If this were a movie made by Michael Bay, Alex Kurtzman, Zack Synder, ect., the characters would be doing slow-motion kung-fu and spouting quippy one-liners, and something would explode. This is because talentless hollywood hacks forget the most fundamental rule of a movie fight scene: that it should teach you something about the characters involved.

    • @bsgfan1
      @bsgfan1 Год назад +4

      And Max’s victory perfectly fits into that dynamic. Both are experienced survivalists, but Max gained the edge because he has proper martial arts training. Since the MPF were a police force, he would’ve been trained for grapples, which is exactly how he gets the advantage over Furiosa.
      Perfectly shows precisely how Max won in a believable way while also adding to his character. Proper fight scene done right 👍🏽

    • @Hanakin-Sidewalker
      @Hanakin-Sidewalker 6 месяцев назад +5

      I think it’s due in part to the inherent, albeit twisted, innocent nature of Nux’s character. When he sees Max beating the crap out of Furiosa, Nux wholeheartedly believes that Max is on his side and is working to gain Immortan Joe’s favor as much as he is. As such, Nux doesn’t so much as hesitate to ally himself with Max to bring her down

  • @bsgfan1
    @bsgfan1 Год назад +17

    As a martial artist, one GREAT detail I love is that Max won because of his MPF martial arts training.
    Notice at several points (1:15, 2:18, 2:33, 2:40) Max is able to counter Furiosa and put her in a hold. The first few only fail because of outside interference, while the last one is what wins Max the fight. These techniques would’ve been critical to a policing profession and sharpened through years of post apocalyptic survival. Had Max not been chained, the fight would’ve been over at 1:15
    Alternatively, Furiosa herself also shows great pragmatism by using every advantage she can; goes straight for the kill, uses objects/environment, and always aims for Max’s head. In fact, 2:26 and 2:37 should have been crippling blows to Max if it weren’t for the face mask absorbing them. Ironically his primary disadvantage is what saved his life.
    This fight is a perfect balance of entertaining choreography mixed with realistic techniques and topped off with a noncontrived reason for victory.

    Such a good dynamic for a fight. She's missing half an arm and he's chained to an unconscious body, at least for a minute, and the wives occasionally grab the chain to help but overall are afraid to get fully involved.

    I love how at the end, Nux genuinely thinks that he and Max were fighting together. Like, they WERE fighting together... but only because they're chained to each other, not because Max wants to help Nux. He ditches him immediately after winning the fight. But for a second there, Nux thinks they're friends, or maybe more like Max is his pet/attack dog, with the way he musses up his hair. It's endearing but a little sad to see.

      You're supposing that Joe is the kind of man that would reward you, and not turn you into his own personal attack dog. If Max had gone back with the wives, he would have never been allowed to do anything but serve Joe. I don't think Max is left with the luxury of honor at this point. He just wants to find a way to isolate himself away from the broken world. Going along with Furiosa's plan was his best bet, even if it meant betraying his own isolationist philosophy. Eventually a shadow of Max's former self emerges, but at this point he's an opportunist just looking out for his own bottom line.

The only thing better than experience is experience backed up by proper training.
