Good one!
"UNDERSTEER" is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
"OVERSTEER" is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car.
"HORSEPOWER" is how fast you hit the fence.
"TORQUE" is how far you take the fence with you.

The eyes popping out during a flashback.
As soon as I saw that, I was like yes!!!

the way max uses his empty shotgun making people think its loaded
or his jacket which is just like the one from MM2, with the shoulder pad
or how he used the bolt cutters as a club. like in mm2
or how Immortan Joe used like a loud speaker/mic to talk to a group of people, like Humungas.

obvious things I guess!

:D :D LOL That's because MM2 doesn't have feminist agenda. It's obviously geared towards dirty old men. ;)

Also! that guy in Mad Max 3, the one who tries to drive that car using a frying pan towards the end, looks just like Immortan Joe's team!

Nux and Slit fighting over who is driving - Roop and Charlie

Nux hitting the Nitrous and the car taking off with flames shooting out the exhaust - Wez and the Humungous truck

Max strapped to the front of Nux's vehicle like the victims strapped to the front of the Humungous truck

The emotionless assessments of the Organ Mechanic "Another month and we'd have had a viable human being" - the Doctors in Mad Max. Unless you just believe all doctor's behave that way - I don't, but maybe George Miller's personal experience! Certainly plenty of other medical references and procedures in there on his behalf too.

Damn, the references keep piling up :lol:

I now remember that they where saying they where going in a particular direction, maybe. Very similar to the piece with the mechanic in MM1
"UNDERSTEER" is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
"OVERSTEER" is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car.
"HORSEPOWER" is how fast you hit the fence.
"TORQUE" is how far you take the fence with you.

Like I said, there are just so many nods back to the original trilogy, I couldn't believe how many there were. Whether they're all fully intended, or whether they're just particular scenes or interactions that worked so well originally that they were blended in again, who knows. I suspect most likely a mixture of both.
