  • It appears Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga is the latest big budget property to become a Box Office Bomb. Despite a large marketing campaign, being a follow up to Fury Road, George Millers track record, recieving decent reviews and a cast consisting of Anya Taylor Joy and Chris Hemsworth it just doesn't look to be happening for Furiosa. Is it the cinemas to streaming pipeline? Is the movie late? Do people not care about the Mad Max universe? The answer is definitively in this review which came from our podcast The Weekly Planet.

      There’s a lot of mid to bad movies I would have seen in the cinema just a few years ago just because friends wanted to do something when going out/it was a good way to spend time.
      In Ireland anyway, the cheapest cinema tickets have doubled in the last few years, so now it’s gotta be a film I really, really want to see to be worth it. Since I’m already paying for streaming services, I’m actually happier to see my money going to use there being justified by saving me money on cinema trips.

      If I’m correct, she first got her arm mangled by something outside the driver’s window. This set up some plausibility for her to yank it off dangling from the truck. That’s a nice set up, nothing like that ridiculous Solo nonsense. (RE: Solo, If it had been Luke, it would have been ‘This young man seems ready to go stepping and leaping between the stars. Hmmm, Luke… Sky - Walker. (Thunderous applause and awards. Ron Howard receives the honorary Most Celebrated Hack award.) I’d love if they revealed the immigration guy had actually had had the same exchange with everyone coming through alone, and named thousands of people Solo.)

    A few years ago I was at a film festival for the reveal of a paramount film. After the movie ended, a group of PR people came out and instructed us all to stand while they also pointed to the director of the film (who was in the audience). No one told us to clap, but the social engineering of the situation was pretty clear. So we all stood and clapped until the director indicated it was fine for us to stop and sit back down. Later this was reported as a 9 min standing ovation.

      It doesn't help that they can't really rely on DVD sales anymore. Like Matt Damon said in his Hot Ones interview, if a movie didn't do well initially in theaters, you could still make your money back on the home release, but now everything goes to streaming, so then the only people paying for the movie are the streaming sites that only need to pay once to stream it indefinitely.

    • @davidgantenbein9362
      @davidgantenbein9362 3 месяца назад +10

      It’s no longer a saga though. The original three had some resemblance to a progression in what happened. But Fury Road pretty much breaks that and we have moved into an undefined future wasteland that isn’t linked to the old world anymore. Hence why people started to come up with theories about Mad Max, because it doesn’t fit into a single saga anymore.
      So yeah, in a nutshell, there was nothing built up that could be concluded. Mad Max has progressed towards a story type (the lonesome cowboy enters town trope from westerns) rather than a connected story or saga.
      Maybe even the reason why Miller abandoned Mad Max for Furiosa, so he could tell some kind of overarching saga with her.

I get why ppl don’t go to the movies anymore, and most of the stuff is trash tbh, but when a genuinely great movie flops it’s extra sad. Miller makes these movies himself tho so I’m hoping he’s able to make a third one. He’ll probably have to do it on a reduced budget tho

      @@davidgantenbein9362 I disagree. I think the fact that the world has progressed is exactly what the series is building to. I think that the progress of a post-apocalyptic society is a throughline that runs through every movie and only ramps up in the Furiuology. Dementus makes a big speech at the end of Furiosa about how what came before is unreclaimable and madness is the driving force of the world. Max in Fury Road says that the only answer to that madness is to fix what's broken, to take the resources available and make something better now instead of trying to reclaim the lost. What does that lead to? Where does that go? What becomes of the Citadel once the water is shared, what would the Wasteland look like with a powerful, altruistic faction lead by Furiosa ruling it? What sort of world is to come? These are the questions I want to (and will never) see answered, and I feel they're very much thematically built up in the two movies.

      But then again, you had really slim chances to get that as Miller decided to not move forward in time with this movie, showing that he probably isn’t interested in that part of the story (the rebuilding part).

    Can't say I'm that surprised. As Variety put it, it's "a prequel spin off for a side character that doesn't have Mad Max in it and doesn't even have the same actress that played the side character in the first place"'. It's come out 10 years after Fury Road and that movie was hardly a juggernaut itself, even though it was generally very popular with the people that watched it. It's also post covid and people are getting pretty jaded with sequels and prequels.

Not every film can have that cast, or those effects, or that cinematography, the sets, the costumes, all the things that make that film so incredible. Mid budgets films need to have a chance to succeed and they just don't.

      They demand higher cuts of ticket revenue and that films stay on for a minimum amount of time with several screens running even if nobody is going to see them. So they have to jack up prices on everything to stay in business or just completely collapse if they don't comply with Disneys model.

    I do think people were expecting Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga to be the same type of film as Mad Max: Fury Road, just more of the same. When it really, really isn't. The former is a revenge epic which takes its time to tell a story which leads into the latter, which is a frenetic adrenaline fuelled action story. The context of the latter just further emphasises the reason for the intense nature of the former.
    In short Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga is not only a great film in and of itself, but it makes Mad Max: Fury Road better.

I get the feeling that anyone who saw the ads for the movie pretty much thought it wasn’t going to be any good from those ads alone. However if you look at the current reviews for the movie, it says the opposite. 8/10 from IMDb, 90% from rotten tomato’s, and over 4/5 from audiances. By all means it looks like a good movie, it’s just that I doubt it’s ad campaign did it any favors, and sure as hell didn’t get anyone who hadn’t seen a mad max movie to want to start with this one.

      Of course it doesn't help that it's longer and drags more. Fury Road was an adrenaline snack, I watched it 4 times in the cinema cause it blew me away everytime and the runtime just flew by.

    One thing that people don't necessarily take into account with these results is that several of the studios are still prioritizing their streaming services over theatrical releases. So, they view these releases as a way to recoup some, but not necessarily all, of the costs of making the movie. If they spend $150 million making a movie, and they can net $75-100 million from the box office, it's essentially a lower cost for the content they've created for Max (or whatever service). As long as the box office returns are more than their advertising budget, they are coming out ahead. Compare this strategy to Netflix, who is shelling out $200 million for garbage like The Grey Man or Red Notice...not giving them theatrical releases at all and just eating the entire cost. I'm sure the studios would love to make a profit on the theatrical release, but they don't look at it as they NEED to.

Dementus unknowingly re-enacting the history of Gengis Khan seemed like such an awesome set up for a story in this world. The torture/executions/speeches lent into it too.
    If i had the chance to write a Mad Max movie, id love to take the "those who forget history" to an artistic extreme, because ancient history is horrifying, mad, borderline unbelievable and violent, yet still reveals something about human nature because its real. A biker horde rolling into isolated towns in a dangerous world with minimal guns and rundown tech would be awesome.
    A re-telling of a true historical event but transposed into this universe would be incredible, because its so alien to our thankfully privileged 21st century, yet the hostility and unpredictability of the Mad Max world is probably how our ancient ancestors felt about it.

Sure its not as good as the _great_ Fury Road, and it's a bit baggy in a couple of spots, but it's sooo much fun, the performances are great, and it looks and sounds fantastic. Plus, there are three brilliant action sequences in it that are on par with those in Fury Road.

  • @g3ckoizlethal
    @g3ckoizlethal 3 месяца назад +17

    Easily, a few reasons:
    1. It's a prequel, with a character who we all know survives to Fury Road and beyond. Bad idea of telling an origin story.
    2. Replacing Charlize Theron with another actress who doesn't even look like her. This is another "Solo" situation.
    3. The movie looks like it uses way too much CGI and it looks WORSE than Fury Road. Mad Max films are famous for their practical effects/stunts and if those are being replaced with noticeable CGI/green screen, then that will hurt the film.

    5 things that would've helped the movie generate better box office:
    1. Shooting practically which was the biggest appeal of the Mad Max franchise being so thrilling to watch.
    2. Having an appearance from Max and utilizing him in the story to attract all the fans of the franchise.
    3. Going foward with a sequel to progress the story rather than exploring a backstory that no-one was ever asking for.
    4. Taking the Nolan approach of shooting on 35mm instead of digital so the movie looks expensive, cinematic and timeless.
    5. Charlize Theron made Furiosa her own in the same way that Mel did with Max so recasting is naturally going to put less bums on seats.
    A Mad Max sequel with Charlize as Furiosa and Mel as Max would make for a huge opening weekend.

  • @himonightbreeze
    @himonightbreeze 3 месяца назад +2

    I think a lot of it is that it opened on a Wednesday, it's a prequel in a series with a very loose timeline (Max and Furiosa are the same age, but Furiosa grew up in the green place and has no pre-war memories??), it isn't about the main character of said series nor does it have any of the leads from any of the previous films returning, and a lot of people just don't have time or money to go to the movies. It's like $10-15 for a ticket and you need to sell a kidney if you want concessions nowadays.
    It probably would be doing better if it went straight to streaming, or if it came out a little closer to Fury Road. It's been about a decade since Fury Road came out, and there haven't been any really significant advances in filmmaking in that time like we saw in Fury Road. A lot of what got people to see it was the spectacle. It looked amazing on the big screen and filmmaking came a long way in the 30 years between Beyond Thunderdome and Fury Road. I still want to see it, but I'm not in a major hurry.
    And frankly, Mad Max fans want to see Max. We want Max ripping through the wastes in his V8 Interceptor, not the angry lady from the last movie who had a backstory cooler than what we saw on screen.
    We know how it's going to end because it's a prequel, and those haven't had a great track record, like ever. No one wants another Solo, y'know?

    It's quite a different movie than Fury Road, and a VERY different movie from the originals. Not in a bad way. I think he was trying to be a little more Euro-Arthousey with the chapters and jumps through Furiosa's life, but I'm no screenwriter, so I'm defintely using the wrong term. It's also slower and quieter in terms of in your face action, which I can get down with.

      Nope, Miller bait-and-switched me last time (Fury Road). I was expecting a Mad Max film; what I got was a femboss Furiosa film about women's empowerment.
      At least this time he's being honest about it, but I have no interest in the slightest in watching another Mary Sue 45kg woman defeating her male adversaries in physical combat. It's pure cringe. A childish power fantasy that most men just find painful to watch. Mad Max is a male-oriented franchise. Have a look at what's happened to other male-oriented male-led franchises that swap the lead out for a female ... doesn't turn out so well for them mostly. Indiana Jones, Star Wars, Doctor Who, Star Trek, He-Man, and the list goes on. All a are shadow of what they once were, politicised and preachy, they have alienated their core audiences and for some reason the female audience they were expecting just hasn't shown up. Funny that, could it be that women don't really watch action franchises? Sure some do, but they are a minority of the female audience.
      It's just a badly conceived idea; a film about a side-character that the bulk of the fanbase did not ask for, did not want, and do not really care that much about. Miller is free to make it, to pursue his vision, but I/we are free to not watch it.

    In my opinion, the biggest issue is really the price of food. A bucket of popcorn and two sodas cost $22. That's more than a ticket, I was charged about $12 for ultrascreen at a AMC mind you. I also think it's a busy time, lots of big movies out, plus Memorial Day weekend is generally a time people take to chill out. There's really a lot of variable that worked against the theater, on top of a shifting movie watching culture. If Miller does do a specific Mad Max prequel film, then I'd like to see that transition from what was in the original Mad Max, to Mad Max 2. Basically showing how desperate people got having no access to power, food, or water.

Anything less than I movie I HAVE to see, I just wait for streaming, where I can watch in the comfort of my home for $6.

      Yeah I was uninterested in a Furiosa prequel but went to see the movie because George Miller usually delivers. It's real good and I'd recommend seeing it, but I have a feeling that most people don't care about directors and choreographers, etc

    No, the reason why furiosa didn’t make what it needed to make is why mission impossible didn’t make what it needed to make. They were both NEVER a billion dollar franchise.

    The movie is great. More action, more world building and story, great cars, get to see some of the other major wasteland locations. The problem is PEOPLE ARE STRUGGLING FINANCIALLY, movie tickets can cost a lot, then if you want popcorn and a drink, even more expense. It should get the viewership when it hits streaming services. Ironic, in The Great Depression movie theatres got a lot of business because they were cheap entertainment people needed as distraction and escapism.

  • @jimbo103189

    I think the answer for this is actually quite simple: NO ONE asked for this movie! It might be good but interest in a prequel of Furiosa’s story was not something that was ever in high demand and even if there was a small demand it largely diminished through the years. They would have been better off with a Mad Max sequel.
