Re: Furiosa with Spoilers Thread

One other nod to the originals is Dementus' leg brace on one leg and knife holder on the other leg. Along with the black leather pants, his lower half is very similar in appearance to Max in MM2.

Re: Furiosa with Spoilers Thread

No. His parents were military. No mention of the MFP. I've read that the backstory is that his parents were supposedly military allies or friends of Immortan Joe. But Jack says in Furiosa that they fought for the right things, or the side of good, or something to that effect. Doesn't sound like peo...

Re: Furiosa with Spoilers Thread

No. His parents were military. No mention of the MFP. How old is Praetorian Jack? This could even prove that Max 2 grew up in the post-apocalyptic world, and never was a pre-apocalyptic cop, but rather a vigilante belonging to a "gang" of self-appointed "cops". Well there wasn't...

Re: Furiosa | the spoiler-free thread

Finally saw the film last night and posted my thoughts on it in another thread with a lot of spoilers, but if anyone is interested, I've adapted it to remove the spoilers here: - Overall I thought it was superb. - I'm amazed reading other places online that people think the first chapter was too lon...

Re: Random observations from me

I'm guessing spoilers are OK in this thread - this post will contain a lot of them Finally saw it last night. Here are my random thoughts if anyone is interested: - Overall I thought it was superb. - I'm amazed reading other places online that people think the first chapter was too long/baggy. I th...

Cheers!
I'm just frustrated I haven't seen it yet, but still I can't keep away from forum discussions about it, so it's sort of at my own risk I guess. Need to see it soon, while I can still retain some surprise.

Yes. The one Furiosa's mother kills with the slingshot thing.

This thread is supposed to be the spoiler-free one.

I know that probably isn't a big deal plot-wise, but try not to give away too much in here.

Re: The best Mad Max references in other things?

Two well-known mid eighties music videos, 'Don't Lose My Number' by Phil Collins, and 'Wild Boys' by Duran Duran have overt references to MM2. Phil Collins: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B7Z-eUmR2bM (Mad Max reference from around 2.40) Duran Duran: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M43wsiNBwmo (Mad ...

Re: FURY ROAD's Oscar chances?

Aside from the technical categories, Theron might get nominated for best actress/supporting actress. There's been a lot critical buzz over her peformance and let's remember that she has won an Oscar before and so would be familiar to the academy voters. Also Sigourney Weaver was nominated for Aliens...

Re: Tom Hardy's voice dubbed?????

I have seen Fury Road about a dozen times now, and I swear that there are a few scenes where Hardy's voice is dubbed over. Especially the scenes where Max is attached to the front of the car towards the beginning of the film. Its clear as day that it is not Tom Hardy saying these few lines,.... lin...
