Great review!
Just found you guys. This was one of the better reviews I've seen so far. Your connection between Dementus and communism is particularly insightful. ... As for the green place, we see it 18 years before the events of Fury Road. There are men there at that point. The women cast the men out. (And then ruined the green place all by themselves) The people on stilts in the swamp in Fury Road are actually the last of the cast out men. Dr. Miller didn't ret-con anything. All of this backstory existed before Fury Road was ever shot. He started working on this around 1999/2000. The comics cover Immortan Joe's backstory. (Miller wrote the story) The video game covers Max's story leading up to Fury Road and includes characters and locations that appear in Furiosa. (Again, Miller behind the story.) It's all connected, and a pretty deep rabbit hole. ... 🤞🤞 That he gets to make "The Wasteland".
Can’t wait to see this movie!
I thought Dementus' grand yapping incompetence was Trump
..commenting as I watch, hope you dont mind.. ... You ask about a biblical parallel. You're referring to Furiosa, but I have long seen a similarly between Max and Jesus.... hear me out. The bible is very fragmented. We're typically hearing about Jesus from one perspective or another, depending on the book. Stories about the same influential man, told by different people. Just like Max. 3 great societies in the late days of the apocalypse, sharing stories of the man whose involvement directly precipitated the birth of their culture. A shared savior, so to speak. The Great Northern Tribe. The peoples who repopulate Sydney. The peoples of the Citidel. (We are hearing the story of Fury Road from the same history man that tells us of Furiosa.) 3 great societies that share an origin that involves an encounter with the mythical.... Max.

Some guys are Trekkies, some Star Wars freaks. I've been a Mad Max geek since 1982 when I was 7. ... I imagine a distant world future where the thriving societies encounter each other and discover their collective roots are all tied to this one man... This franchise is so deep, and so special.
lol damn this sucks
