Off to my 2nd viewing now.
I've only ever seen 2 films twice in the cinema that I can remember, and it was just happenstance, not a deliberate choice on my part
Return of the Jedi Special Edition and Casper the friendly ghost (the one with Christina Ricci and Bill Pullman)

Was it just silver spray paint? Nothing else to jack them up? I couldn't really figure out what that was.
I remember enjoying it at the time. I wonder what I'd think of it now, haven't seen it since. That was a pretty early CGI showcaser if memory serves.
Mid 90's?
1995 t'would seem.
That's about as mid as mid goes.

I'm going to see this again this Saturday night. I can't remember the last movie I saw a movie 2+ at the theatre.
I'm not going to debate the merits and short-comings of this movie (all movies have them), but suffice to say, I will seek out the comics related to Mad Max and pray that Hot Toys or another company take a chance with this license--just so many memorable characters...

I saw Avengers twice, because my wife wanted to see it after I had seen it early (only to avoid spoilers from jerks on the forum). . .hard to remember the others, but there weren't many. I saw Memento twice for sure, and for some reason saw Stargate 4 times (at least two of those at the Dollar Theater, though). Saw Superman Returns twice, as I took my nephew after I had seen it initially. I also saw Lord of the Rings Pt. 1 twice, but only because I was out of the country once looking for something to pass the time, this was probably a year or two after its initial release. I saw the original Jedi when I was 3ish, and then the Special Edition as a teen, if that counts. And I saw a Ghostbusters re-release two separate times. I think that's it. Actually more than I thought.

Batman Begins - once in a regular theatre, and 6 more times in IMAX. Back when I wasn't married or had kids. I'll soon be single again, so that might happen again... if the movie is good enough.
Seriously, there's like no escape from superhero movies.
Even when they're no in theaters, they're there on the internet.
Fury road is god damn refreshing.

Ok, my final thoughts after my 2nd and last theatrical viewing.
Overall yes, an improvement......but....
RW is still KING of the franchise!
Undecided which I think was a better reboot, this or Dredd, but I'm leaning towards Dredd.
I think this movie could benefit from an extended cut.
I liked TH more as Max.
IJ, while cool looking and sounding (Darth Vaderish at times), didn't do much did he.
At one point he's doing absolutely nothing until he saw the convoy heading back towards the Citadel! Nothing, just standing in the desert hanging out.
His son Erectus was a waste of a villain.
Guitar guy was a waste.
Getting stuck in the mud twice lead to some disjointed editing.
The wives, well, they were ok I guess, had some decent moments but nothing great.
I wonder about the narrative impact had Furiosa died along with IJ leaving Max to complete her mission in honor of her.
Nux's death didn't really impact me as much as I think it was built up to do.
The best part was the final pole battle with Max hanging off the truck, I really felt for him and Furiosa there, as well as for the female warrior tribe (great build up music during that entire scene).
Overall the movie was still not earth shattering for me as it was for many others.
Wife enjoyed it, I think more than me.
I don't hate it, not even close, but it also didn't make me have a vision of George Miller in the form of a burning bush once the end credits rolled.
RW gives me that vision.
I know I know, cast me to hell.

Thinking about this movie again before I head out to see it a second time in about an hour one thing occurred to me. I wonder if the four movies "play" the best if you watch them in this order: MM, RW, FR, Thunderdome.
If you put this movie after Road Warrior then it would kind of make sense for Max to go back and try and restore his Interceptor after he flipped the semi and Humungus' men took off. Then it gets demolished again in FR and that's why he starts out on foot at the beginning of Thunderdome. Plus he's a little "nicer" at the end of Fury Road which might also segue a little better into his Thunderdome character.

No way, he was one of the best things about the entire movie.
