Well it's George Miller. You know he's going to make everything seem as huge and epic as possible.I have an issue with the title. MM is the "saga", Furiosa is a "story" (like RO and Solo).
Would you say that you are…furiosa about it.I have an issue with the title. MM is the "saga", Furiosa is a "story" (like RO and Solo).
Is that Jet Li's outfit from the end of Hero?
And someone shot arrows at it.I can see her behind.
Well damn. It's official. We just can't be friends anymore. I'll try to just remember the good times. . .Fury Road was weak
I love Fury Road. Putting nostalgia goggles to the side, I feel it is up there with Road Warrior, even, in terms of being a great George Miller film. But I also have a sense that it was lightning in a bottle. Things came together at the right time, he probably did build up ideas and energies since the mid-80s to do it right, and it's hard to replicate something like that. Beyond Thunderdome was a huge dropoff from Road Warrior. Ivan Reitman couldn't replicate Ghostbusters in 1989. Temple of Doom I personally love, but also recognize the diminished returns from Raiders.Miller should have stopped at Fury Road.
Ok hold on hold on hold on lolWell damn. It's official. We just can't be friends anymore. I'll try to just remember the good times. . .

For that reason, I haven't followed this new one's development very closely and never developed strong expectations for it. I hope it's good but will be unsurprised if it isn't.
