Date: May 27th, 2024 1:45 PM Author: fragrant lemon hissy fit I feel bad for George Miller but obviously a Mad Max movie without Max won’t sell. This gets lumped in by Twitter cons with shit like Captain Marvel but it isn’t that at all, it’s Miller telling a story he has wanted to tell since Fury Road came out. A really dumb fucking idea, but it’s what he wanted, not studio shit.
When Miller wrote Fury Road he had an insane amount of supporting material and world building shit for all of the non-Max characters and he wanted to make a separate movie out of it.
This will probably be a cult classic type movie in a decade, but cult classics don’t get you budgets for new movies. |

I wonder though wtf is it like Filming with an 80 year old in a desert? Like he can't possibly be at his best out there and probably had to go in the Trailer to cool off a lot o the time. Like there would have to be more green screen in this versus the last one. |

Date: May 27th, 2024 10:26 PM Author: Fiercely-loyal cordovan corn cake nursing home I think the bigger issue is that Americans are done with the movies.
People used to go to the movies with their freinds, on dates, with their spouses. And now they just don't.
Hollywood got hooked on the super hero drug, it was amazingly successful, and then they blew their load on the last Avengers movie which made billions of dollars.
But now you can't just go back and go "Here's another origin story of 1 super hero" after you had 50 super heroes fighting over the fate of the universe.
And now they can't go back to normal movies because that audience just learned to do other shit than go to the movies. |

Fortunately it’s getting incredibly high viewer ratings so hopefully word of mouth will save it. It’s hard to believe a major studio green lit an R rated movie with a $100 million budget - it would suck if this bombs and no one will ever finance anything like it again and the only action movies you can see in the theater are Spider-Man 15 or whatever.
