Exactly that’s why the kids that grew up on this. And the kids that grew up on the other movie are 2 totally different kids. Mad Max=Real Men and Women!
My brother took me to see this movie when I was 6 years old at 11pm session in 1982. The lady asked him if I was not too young, he said no. Best gift and memories
@@SuckerFreeGear Same! My brother was in college in a big city and visited rarely. Every time he came, he showed me a movie, and I would watch that tape countless times. I've seen Rambo, Operation Delta Force, American Ninja and Mad Max dozens of times. Like OP, my brother took me to see the first movie at the cinema and it was Predator. What a blast!
I was sad in the part where the dog was killed, but when the car explodes, i completely forgot the dog, and i start crying while the ford falcon was burning 😭
My parents took me to see this when I was twelve. I left the theater with the roar of engines ringing in my ears and a goofy smile on my face. I was never the same.
The wind-up chime at the end of the clip is an echo of the old world he used to live in. That faint smile is a recognition of that. Not just an action movie, a lot of depth to it - even without much dialogue in the first few acts.
Yes AGREED! Mad Max started it all ; Thunderdome was decent, and Fury Road tried to mimic the second movie, but Mad Max II The Road Warrior outshined them all!
We got taken to see "A Force Of One" by ourselves--which was odd. It must have been we went with a neighbor's family (whose kids were also with us, I don't remember) who dropped us off and picked us back up when the movie was over--such milk-carton action would have never happened with our parents--when parents do that, the message sent is "You can do whatever you want after we leave because we won't know about it--and if we do, it will be too late." Anyway, nearly the entire theater-full of youngsters was soon doing kung-fu (I remember it being packed with kids, for some reason--it might have been a weekend). Long before the movie was over were things out of control; it was utter chaos I haven't seen in any theater since (aside from maybe Melissa McCarthy's "The Boss" where people were nearly on the floor in laughter--almost everyone lost it in there but for good reasons). We didn't do kung-fu, though, during "A Farce Of One." We were raised to be good, little bitches never breaking the mold. It soon became that no one was watching Chuck Norris's latest half-baked action flick--we were watching everyone else be Chuck Norris (an indicator of how bad that movie must really be). Because we were taught to never have nuts, we didn't attack some kid in the fifth row we didn't know like kids in the back row were doing (learning such moves moments earlier from Chuck himself--this was also P.G. County, MD where chaos, poor parenting and irresponsibility are tradition). We knew better not to get involved so enjoyed the show--that was way better than the show--we got two shows but only paid for one ticket: If the parents thought we were kung-fu fighting because everybody was kung-fu fighting we would have never been allowed to listen to the radio ever again.
Seen Mad Max at the theatre. Waited for the sequel for years. Worried that it would not live up to the first one. After the first 30 seconds I stopped worrying. What a masterpiece.
@@carpediem9750 and if they had...there still wasn't a budget for it. in the first movie, the blue van that gets smashed in the beginning belonged to the director.
Attention to details was insane back then.. they did not need cgi, but the sad part is, with all this technology today - there is no imagination, no story, no excitement, no characters..
You could be right; I wound-up watching a bunch of other Aussie movies made around this time; a few have some famous faces I couldn't place but the storylines were often about some gas station attendant trying to take some forklift driver's girl--both dudes ain't shit, either, they're both drunks, actually, with the girl's Dad trying to make sure she doesn't give the attendant any pussy but after about a hour and a half, she does, anyway.
I love how Wez pulls the bolt out trying to intimidate Max with how little the pain matters to him and Max is just like "...gross." And when the decomposed body of the truck driver falls out, Max is far too jaded to even so much as blink. The playful innocent music box has more of an impact on his stony facade than a bloated and rotting corpse.

I doubt today’s cars could stand up to this sort of punishment. Those cars were made to be driven exactly as shown here. I know because I drove a 351 XA COUPE with 12” rear 10” front, and I drove it just like Mad Max. Today I would be branded a hoon (which I am proud to be btw).

The first Mad Max and the second was the first time any one had filmed a car chase with the cameras at road level where you can see the road as well as the car watching just a wheel or the front and back of a car at high speed at road level. Seems very simple but it gave the scene a whole new level of drama or excitement, it was basically just different camera angles that had not been done before and wow what a difference it made. Makes you feel like your right there with the action, and that coupe that rolled over with the camera obviously on the back of a truck or something in front looks just totally awesome as you can see the complete roll over from start to finish on the move, fantastic piece of film work. Well done guys and this was in the 1970's!
In terms of the camera angles, I'd say Steve McQueen's "Le Mans" (though not a 'car chase', is still centred around the driving sequence) did the road-level camera angles first. Though the Mad Max franchise certainly developed the concept in a unique way.
I remember my family recorded this off of basic TV from our VCR years ago and I watched this movie all the time. We didn't have cable so a lot of movies like this were heavily cut/edited to not show certain scenes. The scene here where Wez is pulling out the bolt from his arm was chopped to where you couldn't see what exactly he was doing. It was YEARS later before I saw the full version and actually got to see what he was doing that made him wince.
Yeah; NBC heavily doctored the movie when they showed it on prime time TV. They wanted to change the movie's message from "one man can make a difference" to "hope survives".
@@Fightman.dad574 I was there, 14 years old skipped school in the afternoon, went to see mad max 2 ,blew me away, 1982, I stayed in the movie theater and watched it again,
Saw it at a cinema in the UK. Years later, in the Australian Army, part of a convoy on an exercise, we pull off the road for breakfast. We get stoves going, get a brew on. Sergeant Fox asks me if recognise the road. I tell him I have never been there before.... It was the road where this was filmed. I drank a tea, with a row of Mac army trucks, on that strip of road.
Stop being sentimental and start to be rational. It was good enough 40 years ago and it is (and was) far away from the best. If this was produced in 2020, it would be called a parody.
@@thomasmason3483 That may be the reason why most of them looks better than this technologically outdated scene. It was good enough in 80s. I like when most of the movie is NOT a CGI, but still..., some scenes would be better with CGI. BTW, that scene has editing error, but it is forgivable.
@@Szklana147 Mad Max 2 was filmed back in analoge times and like you say was good enough for its time and I personally prefer this over the modern stuff which generally use CGI and the same cheesey cliches.
@@wolfgangboettcher3126 what does it mean richtig zeiten, I know richtig means right and zeiten means time but I don't know what you mean by it please explain
as a kid i never knew the road warrior was a sequel to mad max because i had never seen mad max, i saw the road warrior in the theater in 1981 when i was in highschool at that point and it had a profound impact on me, so much so that i build my own mad max car in 1985 using a 1973 mercury cougar as the car, i recreated it as close to this movie as i could , the good ole days!!!
The dog was discovered in the shelter at Broken Hill, NSW. The dog was about to be killed at the shelter and the movie crew needed a doggo for the movie. He went home with one of the crew after they finished the movie.
Yep love seeing all the old Aussie cars in it, the old man had a Landau coupe when i was young, dark blue with vinyl roof. Dunno whats stuck on the front of the one chasing Max, looks like a rear bumper from something :-)
It resonates with both. My dads and English lad born in the 70s and he let me watch these movies when my mum wasn’t home. Mad max is one of my favourite things ever. So glad fury road was a good revival and not the general shit franchise reboots we get nowadays
Exactly my thoughts. Even though the characters are quite ridiculous in this film as well, everything just feels so much more grounded in reality. No guys shredding flamethrower-guitars (as cool as that was) or spraying chrome paint on their teeth. Just a bunch of people trying to survive the wasteland. And barely doing it too. Fury Road was fantastic, but for me nothing beats 2.
@@horrorfanandy4647 Bunch of people trying to survive, yet, they wear the most ridiculous BDSM, fetish stuff in the middle of the desert. The unrealistic, craziness was always part of Mad Max's world, even in Mad Max 1 (just look at the uniforms and cars of the MFP) If George Miller had the money and technology to make the same unhinged movie as Fury Road, he would have done that already in 1981.
@@humanelemon115 Fair point. They probably wouldn’t be driving cars like that either in a world where gas is a premium. I suppose what I meant was the grittiness that comes from the lower budget and the overall technology of the period. It just has some kind of magic to it that I prefer.
@@horrorfanandy4647 That's part of the point of the V8 Interceptor. It was the "last one" (noted several times in both films) precisely because it was a gas guzzler. The new fleet of cars commissioned by the MFP were wimpy by comparison and couldn't do the job because the bandits weren't playing by the same rules. Mad Max 1 & 2 had a ton of social commentary about regulation of oil and the vehicles that use it that was happing through out the 70s.
Been a fan of Mad Max since my childhood. Seen it thosuands of times still kicks ass never got bored of it. Mr.Miller is the godfather of carchasing and crashing scenes. ...and the way the 2nd part starts with this chasing we jump right into the action from the first second...just brilliant.
I’d just like to say, I drive trucks through a lot of Australia’s inland highways & the roads have completely gone to crap! This movie was set in the post Armageddon world & the roads are near perfect! 😂
To be _fair,_ it's implied in the surrounding lore that The Road Warrior takes place about five or so years after Mad Max 1, where infrastructure still _exists,_ but is slowly but surely deteriorating.
They had to use goodroads for the stunts that they pulled you you couldn't have Chase scenes like that on a bumpy road with potholes don't be so f****** stupid
@@robertminnis3244 Years ago when Thunderdome was being filmed there was a journalist on the set interviewing Mel Gibson. He asked what he thought of the movie he was making. Mel says "It's a piece of sh*t... Don't print that!" But they did, because I read it, lol!
@@duffysullivan2794 😂🤣 bloody journalists, can't trust them. I liked beyond the thunderdome too but the road warrior is the best of the original three.
Because the original didn't get released in the US it was years before I realized that the bit that was shown in the intro of how Max's family was murdered was from the first movie. I found it in in a video store and I still make sure to watch it every year since.
my dog looks exact same and my vk commodore has the same style front end hahaha maybe i should do a new version. ill call it fucked off max 2020 hahahaha :P
This is one my favorite scenes and the dog fits in it perfectly after the red light flashing and slows down the dog like whins and jumps in the backseat. Like saying ohh f**k were slowing down and things going get bad or rough ride 😂💜
I just found out today that the gang member with the mohawk hairstyle is the same actor that was in the comedy film Weird Science , in the scene where mutant bikers gatecrash Wyatt & Gary's party.
That Landau looks even more badass than Max's Interceptor. I remember watching the movie as a kid and didn't know those were superchargers protruding through the hood, I thought they might be some sort of dart launchers :)
I saw mad max when I was 11..a few yrs later I saw the road warrior not knowing at first it was mad max 2..when I saw the opening sequence I was like wait a minute is this..? Then when I SAW THAT CAR AND THAT GUN AND LEATHER SUIT I was like...THATS MAD MAX!!!!!!!!!!!! been my favorite movie EVER SINCE THEN....THE ROAD WARRIOR!!!!!!!!
Éste comienzo es absolutamente extraordinario, directo al grano, sonido alucinante, fotografía deslumbrante, violencia absolutamente desemesurada...Una de mis peliculas favoritas de siempre, un clásico absoluto, una joya !!
ya know whats funny after al these years? This is supposedly post apocalypse, but the highways in this movie are in better condition then what we have today in 2024
Incredible how in the wasteland the roads are so well maintained. Everyone recognizes the value of the road repair crews for road warriors to keep battling over fuel.
To be fair, this film isn't exactly set decades after the world's collapse, so it's not too big a reach to think that at least some roads will still be in ok condition.
@@stuartwesthall but you'll find it amusing, that roads after world's collapse in movies and games are maintained in better conditions, then in some countries.
Mad Max 2 is really about Max looking for the love of his life--which, of course--as it is with the most of us--winds-up being the bitch under a blanket with some biker she met in the desert--he takes a quick look back, but then thinks "Well, it's too late to get her now--besides, I have to get all this sand to wherever the fuck these people got me going. FML. The only person I really have to talk to is that kid who smells like ass and feet--and all he does is make noises when my shot-gun works."
I love the scene where Wez tries to bully Max when he pulls out an arrow and demonstrates how he's supposed to be insensitive to pain. He then drives the motorcycle down the hill towards Max. However, Max reacts very confidently and pulls out a shotgun (even though he knows it's empty). At that moment, Wez slows down and turns the motorcycle. Despite his "immunity" to pain, he knows very well that he is not immune to the Lead. There is quite a bit of psychological warfare in this scene :)
The Road Warrior shaped my life and have seen it a hundred times. Mad max I’ve seen a hundred times. Mad max beyond thunderdome I’ve seen once and that is enough. The rest I’ve seen once also.
one thing i always found funny is that when gas is such a valuable thing you'd think they would drive fuel effiecient cars but nope gas guzzlers instead xD
J'ai utilisé ce film en premier pour tester le premier home theater que je m'étais constitué, avec des enceintes faites par moi, et un système surround évidemment... et l'ampli qui gérait le son d'environnement donc...ce que je peux dire, c'est que je ne me suis jamais lassé de cette scène d'ouverture! J'avais l'impression d'avoir les oreilles collées à l'échappement, quel régal ce son !!! Les pneus qui crissent, la marche arrière, le V8 qui ronronne...quel bonheur !!!
I agree. Not go mention that the dog was a stray dog about to be euthanized, was hired by George Miller upon retrieving a rock he hade thrown. He was trained and after the movie was filmed, he was adopted by Dale Aspin, the stunt coordinator. Lovely story.
Every frame of this movie is epic. I've watched it repeatedly and will re- watch it many more times. The Road Warrior is cinema legend , a milestone movie that made an indelible mark on culture. Made for what amounted to pocket change and a firestorm of guts and creativity. I fucking love this film.

@@Fightman.dad574 I was there, 14 years old skipped school in the afternoon, went to see mad max 2 ,blew me away, 1982, I stayed in the movie theater and watched it again,
Saw it at a cinema in the UK.
Years later, in the Australian Army, part of a convoy on an exercise, we pull off the road for breakfast. We get stoves going, get a brew on.
Sergeant Fox asks me if recognise the road.
I tell him I have never been there before....
It was the road where this was filmed. I drank a tea, with a row of Mac army trucks, on that strip of road.
The final chase and crash are epic. The violin from "Psycho" let you know how serious the situation was for Max & Feral Kid.
I kind of agree, but it is right there with the opening sequence of The Dark Knight.
filmul lui mad max excelenta....superrrrr
I named one of my sons after him ,we call him maximux , he builds cars that are unbelievable for good paying clients , thank you mad Max ❤🎉 🙏
3:03のメル・ギブソンの「うわぁ…」って引いた顔好きw
It's a short chase, but the way these stunts are executed and performed is incredible, George Miller's resume is exceptional.
Probably the best car chase scenes of all time in Mad Max.
Si, estas escenas y la excepcional del gran Steve Mc Quin en " Bullit " , con su legendary Ford Mustang GT 1968 , color verde noche !!!
Stop being sentimental and start to be rational. It was good enough 40 years ago and it is (and was) far away from the best. If this was produced in 2020, it would be called a parody.
@@Szklana147 all of today's car chases are full of CGI and shitty storylines etc apart from Nobody (2021)...
@@thomasmason3483 That may be the reason why most of them looks better than this technologically outdated scene. It was good enough in 80s. I like when most of the movie is NOT a CGI, but still..., some scenes would be better with CGI.
BTW, that scene has editing error, but it is forgivable.
@@Szklana147 Mad Max 2 was filmed back in analoge times and like you say was good enough for its time and I personally prefer this over the modern stuff which generally use CGI and the same cheesey cliches.
One of the best movies from Mel gibson🎥

as a kid i never knew the road warrior was a sequel to mad max because i had never seen mad max, i saw the road warrior in the theater in 1981 when i was in highschool at that point and it had a profound impact on me, so much so that i build my own mad max car in 1985 using a 1973 mercury cougar as the car, i recreated it as close to this movie as i could , the good ole days!!!
It's actually a 1973 Ford Falcon.
@@METALHEAD550 indeed it is , and an XB at that 👍
Max's Doggo is the ultimate wingman.
The dog was discovered in the shelter at Broken Hill, NSW. The dog was about to be killed at the shelter and the movie crew needed a doggo for the movie. He went home with one of the crew after they finished the movie.
I love it how the dog knows he is low on fuel when the beeper goes off and he goes to the back of the car.
I won't ruin your likes 😉
@@Incognito-bo2he Someone else did it though.
@@gorillaau Hope they slip in a banana peel
Dean Semler, for a low budget this is almost Lawrence of Arabia. AND THE SOUND
He was a good doggo, didn't deserve to check out the way he did.
I think this movie resonates with every Aussie boy born in the 70’s.
Not just Aussie's my friend. American boys too.
and American ;)
Yep love seeing all the old Aussie cars in it, the old man had a Landau coupe when i was young, dark blue with vinyl roof. Dunno whats stuck on the front of the one chasing Max, looks like a rear bumper from something :-)
It resonates with both. My dads and English lad born in the 70s and he let me watch these movies when my mum wasn’t home. Mad max is one of my favourite things ever. So glad fury road was a good revival and not the general shit franchise reboots we get nowadays
@@uhtred7860 front bar looks like a buick or 57 chev....rear is a good question
This has a gritty realism not matched in Fury Road.
Exactly my thoughts. Even though the characters are quite ridiculous in this film as well, everything just feels so much more grounded in reality. No guys shredding flamethrower-guitars (as cool as that was) or spraying chrome paint on their teeth. Just a bunch of people trying to survive the wasteland. And barely doing it too.
Fury Road was fantastic, but for me nothing beats 2.
@@horrorfanandy4647 Mentally ill people, who are not stopping to think about it. Now thats great cinema!
@@horrorfanandy4647 Bunch of people trying to survive, yet, they wear the most ridiculous BDSM, fetish stuff in the middle of the desert. The unrealistic, craziness was always part of Mad Max's world, even in Mad Max 1 (just look at the uniforms and cars of the MFP) If George Miller had the money and technology to make the same unhinged movie as Fury Road, he would have done that already in 1981.
@@humanelemon115 Fair point. They probably wouldn’t be driving cars like that either in a world where gas is a premium. I suppose what I meant was the grittiness that comes from the lower budget and the overall technology of the period. It just has some kind of magic to it that I prefer.
@@horrorfanandy4647 That's part of the point of the V8 Interceptor. It was the "last one" (noted several times in both films) precisely because it was a gas guzzler. The new fleet of cars commissioned by the MFP were wimpy by comparison and couldn't do the job because the bandits weren't playing by the same rules. Mad Max 1 & 2 had a ton of social commentary about regulation of oil and the vehicles that use it that was happing through out the 70s.
Been a fan of Mad Max since my childhood. Seen it thosuands of times still kicks ass never got bored of it. Mr.Miller is the godfather of carchasing and crashing scenes. ...and the way the 2nd part starts with this chasing we jump right into the action from the first second...just brilliant.
Never realized until recently that the dude driving the motorcycle also plays the character Bennett on Commando, Arnold Schwarzeneggers rival.
I’d just like to say, I drive trucks through a lot of Australia’s inland highways & the roads have completely gone to crap! This movie was set in the post Armageddon world & the roads are near perfect! 😂
🎸 greas tresh !! jaded vinyl
To be _fair,_ it's implied in the surrounding lore that The Road Warrior takes place about five or so years after Mad Max 1, where infrastructure still _exists,_ but is slowly but surely deteriorating.
They had to use goodroads for the stunts that they pulled you you couldn't have Chase scenes like that on a bumpy road with potholes don't be so f****** stupid
@@GoredonTheDestroyer yup, in Fury Road (idk if is a reboot or something) society completely gone, all is off-road
@@zeta1960 fury road is a sequel actually
I’m Australian. This is just a regular day. Fuel’s pretty expensive.
My favourite of all the Mad Max films.
Obviously you're a man of taste, it's the best one.
@@robertminnis3244 Years ago when Thunderdome was being filmed there was a journalist on the set interviewing Mel Gibson. He asked what he thought of the movie he was making. Mel says "It's a piece of sh*t... Don't print that!" But they did, because I read it, lol!
@@duffysullivan2794 😂🤣 bloody journalists, can't trust them. I liked beyond the thunderdome too but the road warrior is the best of the original three.
I liked the first one the best. The toecutter was the best character
I like all of them.. the three different settings of the status of the society make them unique.
約40年前経っても色褪せることのないバイオレンス映画の最高傑作。マンガの北斗の拳に登場するキャラクターはMADMAXシリーズに登場するキャラをそのまま使用していた。それくらい悪役たちの個性も強烈に際立っていた。
The 1st 10 minutes of Mad Max, The Road Warrior and Apocalypse Now will never be topped
MADMAX1 did not hit in the USA.
However, it was a big hit in Japan.
So MADMAX2 was made.
The story of MM2 is in the samurai movie "Kogarashi Monjiro".
Because the original didn't get released in the US it was years before I realized that the bit that was shown in the intro of how Max's family was murdered was from the first movie. I found it in in a video store and I still make sure to watch it every year since.
Love the engine sound at 1:43
Even the dog plays his part well!

Awsome stuff! Still don't know if those clutch operated superchargers exist 😁
Mel Gibson, to this day remains one of the few great actors, who isn't afraid to call out the world's evil.
Because he IS one of the world's evils.
Stay mad. Nazis lost.
I like how it drops you right in the car with max.
idk why this scene is so perfect .its just beautiful
Sch. Covid
yeah but I've loved it waaaaaaaaayyyyyyy before covid. like VHS
No words are spoken and none are needed to convey the story.
This is simply the baddest continuous set of wild auto and cycle stunts ever put on celluloid.
This is one my favorite scenes and the dog fits in it perfectly after the red light flashing and slows down the dog like whins and jumps in the backseat. Like saying ohh f**k were slowing down and things going get bad or rough ride 😂💜
Watched it a million times will watch it another million times
Mad Max 2 is my favourite.
Is a masterpiece and a playbook for the late 2020's.
I just found out today that the gang member with the mohawk hairstyle is the same actor that was in the comedy film Weird Science , in the scene where mutant bikers gatecrash Wyatt & Gary's party.
That Landau looks even more badass than Max's Interceptor. I remember watching the movie as a kid and didn't know those were superchargers protruding through the hood, I thought they might be some sort of dart launchers :)
One of coolest opening car chase scenes ever!!
*The* coolest!
And not even one word of dialogue
Pure kino
There's a Burt Reynolds movie with a Lamborghini Countach for the first 5 minutes...
Ich könnte es 100mal hintereinander sehen. Das waren Szenen ohne irgendwelche ""Spezialeffekte"" SUPER.👍
Absolute masterpiece
It's a great, great scene! And it's an incredible way to start a film. To see the movie in the theater must have been a tranformative experience.
I saw it at a drive-in when I was around 15. Then the second one at another drive in. In my top ten ever.
lmao, it's a car crash.
@@EMCF_ yeah no, it's not just a car crash
I love how the red punk haired bandit is helarious and frightening at the same time, when his screaming. :D XD
Trust me, in the darkened theatre when this movie came out, the audience was silent, slack jawed with eyes on screen. Nothing hilarious.
You should watch him beat up Cheech Marin and bang hot chicks on Shrimp on the Barbie.
@@doncallangher6177 Qe? what?! whoms was em?
@@oomahuntressprotectress848 The red punk is Wez. Everybody in the theater was blown away by his character - and Max as well.
Хороший сценарий, отличные актёры, грамотный режиссёр и отсутствие всяких соплей...всё это вместе и создало этот шедевр.

Only the BEST MOVIE EVER MATE.
I saw mad max when I was 11..a few yrs later I saw the road warrior not knowing at first it was mad max 2..when I saw the opening sequence I was like wait a minute is this..? Then when I SAW THAT CAR AND THAT GUN AND LEATHER SUIT I was like...THATS MAD MAX!!!!!!!!!!!! been my favorite movie EVER SINCE THEN....THE ROAD WARRIOR!!!!!!!!
3:15 Dog tucking-in to roo road kill 😄
The best Mad Max film
All around this movie is a masterpiece.
Max’s rock solid demeanor being cracked/rattled by the sound of the music box.
Ha had to turn it to get out all the moldy, green, dead skin out of it--after that, it would make the perfect gift.
Éste comienzo es absolutamente extraordinario, directo al grano, sonido alucinante, fotografía deslumbrante, violencia absolutamente desemesurada...Una de mis peliculas favoritas de siempre, un clásico absoluto, una joya !!
MAD MAX 2 ES LA MEJOR DE TODAS YO LA VI EN VHS EN LOS 80 y ME TRAUMATIZO👍
sólo he visto la 1🤔
That "clutch up" wheelie was the stuff of legends back then .
Just as cool now
ya know whats funny after al these years? This is supposedly post apocalypse, but the highways in this movie are in better condition then what we have today in 2024
wow i still remember my parents taking me to see this.... That blower scene.... WOW.... Still LOVE it to this day..... Best movie ever....
Wez would later lose his blower.
Define epic in just three words: Mad Max 2.
Yeah!!
The one where they got everything right
That’s two words and a number.
Two words and one digit...
@ two words and a digit...
I never get tired of watching it!
By farrrr, the best sequel.
The dudes retreading the tires must have been revered in this scenario.
Incredible how in the wasteland the roads are so well maintained. Everyone recognizes the value of the road repair crews for road warriors to keep battling over fuel.
To be fair, this film isn't exactly set decades after the world's collapse, so it's not too big a reach to think that at least some roads will still be in ok condition.
@@stuartwesthall but you'll find it amusing, that roads after world's collapse in movies and games are maintained in better conditions, then in some countries.
@@retrosquadchannel2.050 yeah, thanks a lot corruption, you sure know how to ruin someone's day
Always wandered this myself lol
Well the corrupt bastards who pocketed their fair share had to get to the west coast some how, preventative measures I guess
one of the most poweful intros ever. it lets us know what wer in for right from the off.
...agreed, but have a look at the intro to Mad Max 1, its no pussy either...
the definitive part of the franchise
Mad Max 2 is really about Max looking for the love of his life--which, of course--as it is with the most of us--winds-up being the bitch under a blanket with some biker she met in the desert--he takes a quick look back, but then thinks "Well, it's too late to get her now--besides, I have to get all this sand to wherever the fuck these people got me going. FML. The only person I really have to talk to is that kid who smells like ass and feet--and all he does is make noises when my shot-gun works."
C était tourné à vitesse réelle bravo aux cascadeurs..Pas de fond verts et autres artifices
Love that short whine from the supercharger as the camera pulls out...
My favorite movie of all time. I wore out 3 VHS tapes of it and a DVD because I have watched it so many times. Trying now to locate a Blu-ray copy.
Buy the 4k edition, its worth it
I love this, it never gets old.
Okay
It was old when it was released.
I like how there's a dead kangaroo near the truck with an arrow sticking out of it. Good touch.
It was tied to the roof of the buggy.
@@deadon4847 Good catch, I didn't notice that.
I love the scene where Wez tries to bully Max when he pulls out an arrow and demonstrates how he's supposed to be insensitive to pain. He then drives the motorcycle down the hill towards Max. However, Max reacts very confidently and pulls out a shotgun (even though he knows it's empty). At that moment, Wez slows down and turns the motorcycle. Despite his "immunity" to pain, he knows very well that he is not immune to the Lead. There is quite a bit of psychological warfare in this scene :)
The Road Warrior shaped my life and have seen it a hundred times. Mad max I’ve seen a hundred times. Mad max beyond thunderdome I’ve seen once and that is enough. The rest I’ve seen once also.
one thing i always found funny is that when gas is such a valuable thing you'd think they would drive fuel effiecient cars but nope gas guzzlers instead xD
Agreed but chasing each other in datsuns or mini vans doesn't have the same sense of drama
but he is Mel G
@@thomas.parnell7365 but what about a post-apocalyptic Datsun 240Z L28 Twin turbo with armor and a flamethrower

0:38 his dog is like "yeah whatever.."
Thx! That dayum Soundtrack is legendary!
Mad Max movies… the BEST of ALL Time.
J'ai utilisé ce film en premier pour tester le premier home theater que je m'étais constitué, avec des enceintes faites par moi, et un système surround évidemment... et l'ampli qui gérait le son d'environnement donc...ce que je peux dire, c'est que je ne me suis jamais lassé de cette scène d'ouverture! J'avais l'impression d'avoir les oreilles collées à l'échappement, quel régal ce son !!! Les pneus qui crissent, la marche arrière, le V8 qui ronronne...quel bonheur !!!
THE DOG IS THE STAR AND MAIN CHARACTER IN MAD MAX. EXCEPTIONAL TALENT !!!
I agree. Not go mention that the dog was a stray dog about to be euthanized, was hired by George Miller upon retrieving a rock he hade thrown. He was trained and after the movie was filmed, he was adopted by Dale Aspin, the stunt coordinator.
Lovely story.
You are pretty baby
You are pretty baby
its name is dinky dee (if you played the ps4 game )
TWO WORDS . STAR DOG.
I like the bits of dog related humour 😄
Épico! Esplêndido! Cena de ação mais marcante dos anos 80!!
The very best of the franchise. I could watch it 3 times in a row
The best Mad Max movie ever made hands down.
1 then 2, he had the budget here for the 2nd
Every frame of this movie is epic. I've watched it repeatedly and will re- watch it many more times. The Road Warrior is cinema legend , a milestone movie that made an indelible mark on culture. Made for what amounted to pocket change and a firestorm of guts and creativity. I fucking love this film.
No green screen, no 3D softwares...just actors and machines...yeah !
