Right now I'm thinking that Fury Road was the 2nd best, with The Wolf Of Wall Street still holding number 1 for me.

Mad Max is a good way to test people.

Everyone who didn't like it is either really boring or broken in some way. It's not like it's even a polarizing film or some sort of cult hit or nerd-bait. It's a critically beloved smash hit. It appealed to adrenaline action-movie junkies. It appealed to the highbrow critics who can't watch anything unless there's a message and symbolism. It appealed to everyone except a handful of self-absorbed internet people with weird hang-ups (like that MRA website that started yelling about it, or the Feminist Frequency Twitter, or every SA poster).

:thejoke:

The extravagance that which the water is doled out is good evidence that Immortan Joe's hydraulic empire was based on artificial scarcity.

I think Furiosa even says as much, that there's more than enough Aqua-Cola in the underground aquifer to rejuvenate the region.

still a good movie, but goddamnit don't get my hopes up like that in the opening sequence only to dash them back to earth, it leaves a bad aftertaste

Indeed, much like Universal Studios' latest billion dollar grossing masterpiece (following closely after Jurassic World and Furious 7), Minions.

The beginning set up an intriguing premise, that the minions seek to serve the strongest lifeform available but inevitably end up destroying it. Throughout history they continue to serve bigger and badder villains, but always accidentally kill them, like some sort of karmic counterbalance to evil.

Clearly this pattern should have continued until either the yellow ones learn not to serve the diabolic, or more likely until they unintentionally eradicate all evil in the universe. When Satan finally loses at Armageddon, it turns out to be only because of his begoggled underlings.

Instead, Gru. Oh well, 4.75 out of 5 stars, love that Sandra Bullock.

Minions was actually a big let down for me unlike Mad Max which ruled in every way possible. Minions was funny for the first 20 mins but then it was a lot of more of the same. Lots of lost potential.

max isn't the main dude

no dog

guy playing max trying to do mel gibson grunt voice combined with caveman

literally 70 year old grandmas fighting (ever fought a grandma? it's easy)

cool tank car is mysteriously blown up off screen because max walked into the dark with a gas can

cool tank car is driven by an evil anime character covered in bullet belts

max, who is hanging upside down on the side of a truck speeding down the wasteland, is kicked in the side by a scrawny baby man but the kick was so powerful it turns him right side up and he flies laterally about 10 ft onto the top of another speeding vehicle

ruined practical effects by using whatever lense filter they used which made them look like cgi

slipknot ripoff in pajamas playing fire guitar on speaker car

a giant skull carved into the side of a mountain

huge mechanical device with huge gears to turn giant chains that can lower cars from the top of a mountain in a post apocolyptic future way out in the desert

bad guy has whoopie cushion on the back of his neck

muscle bad guy has a gattlin gun that he only uses to fire in the air when he got mad once

robot arm future tech bullshit where there is no evidence of any technology that rivals it in any way, especially when most of the cars are old ones cobbled together

steering wheel alter(lame)
