Mad Max: Fury Road

*Crazy Wolf* · May 28th, 2015

So, I dressed up and went to go see it with a bunch of friends on the 15th, and I'm still kinda amped when I think about it. Excellently crafted and completely insane and wonderful.

And then someone went and made this:

I can't tell whether that mash-up would make it 10x better, or slightly worse.

You dressed up? Tell me more.

I loved the Chain Chomp.

What was the film itself like, any good? Curious to know what a Mad Max film without Mel Gibson is like.

Also, am I the only one who found the name Max Rockatansky a bit cheesy.... XD

A movie without Mel Gibson has a higher chance of being good than one with him.

Honestly, I didn't have much to go with. I just used a Brit desert DPM as my top, with a belt holding some old '50s Soviet clip pouches and a knife as an improvised bandolier/chest rig. A shemagh, Texas flag handkerchief, rebreather, and goggles for the head, multicam pants and wildland fire boots for the bottom, with archery gear (arm guards, finger pads, etc) as extra armor. I was lacking sports armor and leather, the two primary components of most Mad Max attire.

The film was fucking incredible. I mean, if you think crazy modified vehicles, exploding throwing spears, fights for freedom, and flamethrower guitars are fucking incredible. If not, then you might not enjoy the film as much.

EDIT: I saw it again yesterday, because I had some spare time. It's worth it, there's little things you probably will miss the first time around simply because there's so much stuff to take in.

Who doesn't like flamethrower guitars, I mean seriously who ?!!!!

It wasn't a bad 'remake', but I still prefer the original.

I thought this movie was bad-ass. I enjoyed it.

Adding Mario Kart makes for an interesting take on it.

I got to see the film a bit ago too and it was pretty decent. Special effects and so on are amazing. The only thing I didn't quite get, which may be a bit of a major flaw, was the plot. I mean I sort of understood this woman was smuggling out other women who were being treated as slaves and Max ended up getting involved somehow, but I think I need a second watch just to fully understand it.

But still, I liked it a lot.
