Which Max Max, goof. Furiosa or Fury Road? Can never be sure with you.
Cap agreed with me about Civil War, so your opinion is invalidated. I very much enjoyed Furiosa, especially the first half, but Civil War was more of a jawdropper.
Furiosa. Been saw the first one, bb. Cap is wrong too.
Furiosa was gas. Chris Hemsworth chewing up the scenery every time he was on screen was worth the price of admission on it's own.

We'll see but if Napoleon was any indication, this sequel by Scott will probably come up short...despite the cast.

I can safely say that of all movies in the last 25 years I'd expect there to be a sequel to, this was not one of them.
Crazy they got Denzel for this movie though, so who knows.

Wasn’t needed imo.
The Coliseum being flooded with water & boats looks cool though.

It’s getting good reviews too. But that’s a great cut trailer. It’s been in my mind since seeing it.
Also, the Longlegs character is how I picture you……Longtoes.

Denzel seems to be like "I got no idea why I'm in this movie, but I'm gonna play the same character as if it was the 21st century" lolWe'll see but if Napoleon was any indication, this sequel by Scott will probably come up short...despite the cast.

But it still wouldn't be as crazy as one proposed Gladiator sequel that was written by a friend of Russel Crowe's that the studio ultimately rejected. In it Maximus is selected by the Roman Gods to be their champion. He's sent to fight wars on their behalf, attempts to assassinate Jesus Christ because the Roman Gods are losing their 'powers' because of the spread of Christianity and because he fails I think he's then cursed to fight in endless wars on Earth showing him in the Crusades, Revolutionary War, World Wars, Vietnam, etc...

Ridley Scott has made 1 good movie since 2007. A couple meh ones. He’s just going through the motions with pointless tentpoles and endless sequels, staving off retirement. He won’t even make a smaller scale movie; he’s abusing his budget privileges. I’m not even a huge Ridley Scott guy, but he’s Erik Johnson out there right now.
George Miller is 79, and he has the vision and creativity of someone half his age. Ridley is 86.

I went to see it last night.
Great vibe and atmosphere. Meh movie.
EDIT: I did enjoy the movie overall and it does a lot of things right. Definitely worth a watch imo. I was just hoping for a bit more oomph.
