MAD MAX: FURIOSA starring Anya Taylor-Joy, Chris Hemsworth (2024) 6 6

Quote

It appears that Warner Bros. is developing a new entry in the Mad Max universe. According to Collider, the next film will be a prequel focused on a young Furiosa.

 

After the critical and commercial success of Mad Max: Fury Road in 2015, director George Miller expressed his desire to develop two more films in the franchise. While one film is meant to serve as a sequel to Tom Hardy’s Fury Road, Miller also wished to create a spinoff starring Charlize Theron’s Furiosa.

 

Based on this new report, however, it seems the plans for the spinoff may have changed. Jeff Sneider revealed on a new episode of The Sneider Cut that the film will focus on a young Furiosa, which could suggest a different actress will portray the character.

I know I am in the minority here, but Fury Road was a weak movie IMHO. I never understood the hype.

what, you didn't enjoy drive drive drive....turn around...drive drive drive back?

It was a visual feast and that makes it worth watching. But the story was only a springboard for the action.

There was no point to it, and if I want drive drive drive I would rather watch one of the Furious movies as they have a bit of an ongoing story to them. Add in the fact that Tom Hardy can't act in a way that makes you care about whether he lives or dies, unlike Mel Gibson in the original three, and it was a  film that is not worth watching a second time.

But where would it rate on your 'NOT A TOTAL WASTE OF MY TIME' scale?

yes, my point was that there was no point to it. I don't see it much different that the F&F movies though so we do diverge on a few points.

The women in my life like to watch Tom Hardy the same way I would watch...say...Charlie's Angels or something like that. (Maybe a bad choice, not sure I watched that. But something with baby dolls and Lucy Lius.)

I told my daughter about the HQ mock up poster and she laughed and laughed.

I loved it but I’m surprised the critics did as well. Held a perfect score on Rotten for a while eventually settling to a 97%.

I really liked Mad Max: Fury Road...Lot's of action and just plain fun!  Made me forgot about the pressures of work and other issues for about 2 hours.  I bought the Blu-Ray.

I don’t know why they are going with the prequel route. I thought Hardy was going to continue in another episode called Mad Max: The Wastelands. They should move forward.

Supposedly both films are going to move forward. George Miller wanted to delve deeper into Furiosa, while also continuing the Tom Hardy version of Mad Max.

There are very few upcoming film franchises I’m excited for. Probably just Dune and Mad Max.
