Mad Max: Fury Road Movie • Page 6

This is so dumb.

It wouldn’t be so dumb if you were chill & conversational while being wrong, but being both a dick & very wrong is just...

I only attempted to engage twice, & I’m already exhausted, lol.

 

I didn't give it any treatment. I just described the character arc in the movie. Furiosa doesn't change. She leaves the Citadel searching for home. Ends the film finding a new home. There is no arc there.

What? I started a discussion about the film and didn't insult anyone. How am I being a dick?

 

this is asinine

 

Lol @ calling him a dick.

 

This is fucking wild.

On a more positive note, Blank Check’s Fury Road is next Sunday and has been confirmed to be over three hours.

 

the block button is your friend

 

Love this potential casting.

'Furiosa': Jodie Comer Reportedly In Contention To Star In 'Mad Max: Fury Road' Prequel

 

psssssst, that was just posted the other day

i wonder if Anya Taylor Joy is also still being courted for a role in this, or if the role she was considering was also for young Furiosa

 

also, i really would like us to move on but i just have to comment THAT IS ABSOLUTELY AN ARC WHAT THE FUCK

 

Move on Andrew. Everyone else has.

 

Ack. Sorry. Saw this post today, and didn't read the whole thread to be sure. Apologies.

 

I absolutely love Anya, but I couldn’t really see her as Furiosa

 

yeah, jodie is a better fit

 

I saw someone mention Karen Gillan and I could get down for that as well, doubt it happens though.

 

I feel like I've had an "is it really that good?" attitude about this movie for a while now, since I haven't seen it since it was in theaters. Re-watched it last night in preparation for the Blank Check episode and I immediately slotted it into my all-time top 10. I have no idea what I was thinking. Is the black and white version worth checking out?

 

I think I wanna watch the Chrome version before listen8ng to that episode.

 

I don’t like that it’s a prequel. I feel we got all we needed of Furiosa’s background in the film. Tho idk what a sequel would look like either, since they killed basically every antagonistic figure lol

 

I'm not super into the deeper mythology of Mad Max or whatever, but I feel like it'd be pretty easy to make a sequel with a new unrelated antagonist from an unexplored corner of that world. Or, maybe even a new character from inside that film's society. Plenty of room in that world to explore in a new story, not necessarily as a continuation of the previous film's story but as a new one that just happens to be through Furiosa's perspective.

But, yeah, I think I agree with you on the prequel thing. It could be cool, but there are some very common prequel traps that I'd rather not see this fall into. Don't need a Solo situation, where they struggle to come up with a compelling arc that doesn't clash with the character's arc in their original film appearance.

 

I'm generally against the concept of prequels entirely. For every Better Call Saul, there's a hundred Hannibal Rising's. If the prequel story was so interesting and vital, the narrative would have started there in the first place!

So yeah not really hyped for a Furiosa prequel at all. Would love a sequel with Theron though.

 

George Miller about to smack all of you with another masterpiece.

 

the real stars of the show are the cars, explosions and designs

i wish they would keep the "max stumbles his way into another groups story" formula, but i don't give a shit who it's about if the action/style is on par with Fury Road

 

I mean, as far as beautifully shot spectacle goes, I'm sure it's gonna rule. I'll see it in theaters opening night regardless & probably love it.

Doesn't mean I can't have slight story reservations over the "Furiosa prequel" premise, lol.

 

Furiosa sequel would be about 10000000000x better. Don’t care about a prequel I want to see what happens after Fury Road.
