Those kids did not get saved. It was their parents who were the ones that Captain Walker saved, by piloting the plane when the nuclear apocalypse occurred. Some of the parents followed the captain to look for help, they didn't return. Presumably some adults stayed behind to look after the children. And they were the ones that told the oldest of the children the story of the captain. Whatever happened to those adults that stayed behind? I assume they also left the children behind, to look for the others who followed the captain, or they died protecting the children.
My theory; the eldest survivors of plane's crash were longing civilization and wanted to go find it. Then Captain probably convinced them that kids are too weak to survive on the wasteland so they need to be left behind. Some of the adults(mostly parents of these kids) disagreed but they changed their minds when Captain said that teenagers will also stay to take care of the little ones. He also said that once they find a civilization one of them will come back for all youngsters(whom he said the same thing). Later on Captain and his team were either killed off by someone/something, stucked in one of tyrranical societies(like the Citadel maybe?) or just were roaming for so long finding nothing at all and also forgetting the way to their kids...

You're missing the entire point. There isn't a Captain Walker. That was an invention that they created out of nothing. That should be apparent because Miss Walker was a showgirl. She wasn't real. They created their own backstory. Captain Walker was a myth meant to give them hope for something better. The airplane was something they understood but didn't know how to use.
The writers may have been familiar with a post apocalyptic novel called Riddly Walker, set in Australia many years after a nuclear war, and the characters spoke in a garbled english like this. A lot of fun to see that influence here.
I just realized watched this masterpiece again for the first time in years since i was a kid now that actually study film making and writing and personally would love to become a screenwriter/director myself im 22 years old and im from Australian so George miller is such a huge influence and somebody who we look up to when it comes to writing and directing the world he created with the mad max franchise absolutely unbelievable
It reminds me of the Honest Hearts expansion to New Vegas. If I’m not mistaken, the tribes in that expansion were descended from lost schoolchildren without a chaperone. There was one grownup watching over them, leaving advice for them to follow to make sure they didn’t go down the wrong path in life.
Rip tina turner 😢❤ I really liked mad max 3 i was sad when i saw sydney in ruins😢 I was born in 1985. Butt I grew up in 90,s era watching mad max movies, heishei era goji movies too
I like the fact that Max realized this was indeed a paradise from the wasteland and wanted to live out his life here. I'm guessing after the end of the movie this is where he went back too.
This wasn't the first time Mel Gibson played a character facing the prospect of being marooned remotely and deciding to just make the best of it. He played Fletcher Christian in the movie, Mutiny on the bounty which released the year before Thunderdome.
@jjrj8568 nah!! Nope 🙅♂️, thunderdome went all lost boys/never-ending story/labyrinth, so Max 1 and 2 was the epic pinical, just like Terminator 1 in 1984, it had a nostalgic timeless kick to it so, I shoot your opinions down laddie 😉 😜
Remember Savannah's dialog from Thunderdome: I sees the end what were the start. It’s Pox-Eclipse, full of pain! And out of it were birthed crackling dust and fearsome time. It were full-on winter, and Mr. Dead chasing them all. But one he couldn’t catch, that were Captain Walker. He gathers up a gang, takes to the air and flies the sky! So they left their homes, said bidey-bye to the high-scrapers and the v v v vidddeoo. Even if unsuccessful This movie is a great end to the Mad Max saga. It could have been way more graphic to drive certain points home. When I saw Road Warrior in cinema, I was shaken. I never saw that level of violence in a movie. I think the studio neutered this.
Actually it makes a lot of sense. It would have been a rite of passage nobody said that the only people left were children. Maybe only the children were capable of living there. It isn't clear how they were able to sustain themselves.
I would like to know how long it s been since the world as we know it changed so completely, and these kids seem to know nothing of it. How long it s been since the events in Mad Max ? Because it looks like these children have little knowledge of the world as it was back in the 1st movie.
The young adults in charge are "trustee's" of Aunty's! Where do all these young children keep coming from? They come from Barter Town and are sent there when they are born to be raised for slavery. Even the chief administers of the Gulag dream of their own freedom though and if they think they have the "Master Blaster" that runs Barter Town, the legendary "Captain Walker" than they are going to seek it to go to Never Never Land. Without Max everything would just continue on as usual and as the children grow older they would be sent back to Barter Town to shovel shit and reproduce which starts the cycle of "civilization" all over again.
I was wondering how all those kids would be there. Because the story of Captain Walker seems to imply they're descendents of survivors of an airliner that went down during the nuclear exchange and Walker and several others left to find help with the promise they'd return.
Apparently the script or novelization explained this. Initially Walker and a group of adults went out into the wasteland to find other people. When they didn’t return a smaller group left to find that group. This lead to a sort of cycle where smaller and smaller groups of the eldest people would leave to find civilization or atleast the other groups, eventually leading to all of the adults to disappear in the search groups. This caused a sort of tradition where the eldest person in this tribe, aka Savana the girl that rescues Max, to journey around the area in search of other people. This is why they thought Max was Walker, the only reason they left the crack in the earth was to find any of the lost adults
So let me see if I got this straight, when the nuclear holocaust happened, an airliner crashed, the pilot (captain Walker) then lead a party to go and find help while leaving i would assume the women and children behind and thus laid the foundation for this lord of the flies convention?
I'm not sure exactly because nothing about it was especially very clear apart from a plane crash that gave them a new life. I suspect it was all fable. Maybe none of it happened. Simply because they told a story doesn't make it a true story. It was mythical there might not have been an airplane. It might have been an invention to swindle Mel Gibson into believing in it.
No. I suspect they understood they were a part of a former great society and while it's a possibility there was a party that left a more plausible explanation is that the adults were afflicted with something like Covid and simply all died.
I don't think so. If you watch the movie there are depths to each character rarely encountered in a movie. Mel Gibson is simply doing what he can. He's still a police officer only in a different realm. It's a very good movie.
@fromchomleystreet Agreed, the broken English and half remembered pieces of pre apocalypse civilization are touching. The kids have regressed to a nearly stone age level and you see mythology being invented.

Every culture has a mythical savior figure.
I like when they said "Miss Walker".
Their voices are like angels like the wind in a magical forest

Man those kids don't know how good they have it where they are. Thinking they needed rescuing and not knowing the World has gone to shit.
No need to sound condescending, also you are exaggerating.

I love their slang and patois.
I still use "This is jerkin' time" in real life.
Captain Walker the Hero, we need a movie of him saving the children!
not sure he was a hero, he left with the other adults and never came back
@@remeyrune6009 And you rule out the possibility that they just didn't survive the trip?
Those kids did not get saved. It was their parents who were the ones that Captain Walker saved, by piloting the plane when the nuclear apocalypse occurred.

I would love to see a prequel that explores Captain Walker's story.
You read my mind.
I"D watch it, heck make it Furiosa's uncle or something

This movie took risks. I'll give it that. And Miller made it after Road Warrior, like was anyone expecting this?!
George Miller only directed the 1st and 3rd acts while another director named George Ogilvie directed the 2nd act which involved this scene here.
What risks
I love this movie as a kid
The writers may have been familiar with a post apocalyptic novel called Riddly Walker, set in Australia many years after a nuclear war, and the characters spoke in a garbled english like this. A lot of fun to see that influence here.
So you gotta listen it and member...
Sometimes you luck out as an artist and create something memorable that will resonate beyond memory. It is your luck to witness it now.
Walker, Texas Ranger would have immediately helped those kids out.
Mel gibson allways will be my favorite vercion of max
Imagine if he took all of the kids to the Thunder Dome and said "We're home"
A View Master...!!!!!
More than a fun film, and a fun film.

Captain Walker should have been the prequel. Not Furiosa.
Exactly
I like the fact that Max realized this was indeed a paradise from the wasteland and wanted to live out his life here. I'm guessing after the end of the movie this is where he went back too.
I figured he went back and got the others and joined the others in the ruins of Sydney as Suvannah said they would.
O Capitão Walker é um grande e inesquecível herói extremamente mais corajoso e lendário do que o próprio Mad Max.❤
This wasn't the first time Mel Gibson played a character facing the prospect of being marooned remotely and deciding to just make the best of it.

Captain Walker is a hero most brave and legendary than the own Mad Max.❤
The fact these kids managed to kill an emu without guns is the most impressive part.
*There are 2 certainties in life: Max's MFP 4073 badge stuck on his jacket and Mrs Walker's hotness.*
Would've been better if he still had his v8 interceptor and dog to the end.
Nah, the V8 represented his dark, murderous persona;and the dog was meant to be just another tragic loss.

Exactly. How did the kids know what Mel is seeing in the panaview?
They had likely done the “the tell” multiple times. It was probably a nightly ritual, the kids knew what order the pictures were in.

this never made any sense to me that ALL the adults would leave the kids.
Actually it makes a lot of sense. It would have been a rite of passage nobody said that the only people left were children. Maybe only the children were capable of living there. It isn't clear how they were able to sustain themselves.

Can’t talk right but knows how to say turbulence 🤦🏼♂️
Where the movie falls apart. First half is excellent.
I don't think so. If you watch the movie there are depths to each character rarely encountered in a movie. Mel Gibson is simply doing what he can. He's still a police officer only in a different realm. It's a very good movie.
Also when they went back to Bartertown to the end was excellent.
IMO, this is the single best scene in the movie. It’s an absolutely brilliant bit of world building, and the writing is poignant and beautiful.
Not at all, this was quite a welcome interlude that gave a backstory to the wasteland and showed how mythology begins.
@fromchomleystreet Agreed, the broken English and half remembered pieces of pre apocalypse civilization are touching. The kids have regressed to a nearly stone age level and you see mythology being invented.
