[Mossybrew]

- I didn't really need to learn more about Furiosa
- Anya Taylor Joy just bugs me for some reason
+ This should still be a kickass good time, definitely worth going to the theater for

 

[The Cockatrice]

Looks horrible to me. Way too much cgi and depth of field....Looks a million times inferior to the previous Mad Max.

Dafuk is this garbage lmao?

AI generated city?


Yeah, I officially lost hope for the movie industry. Its fucking dead to me. Guess I'll just stick to rewatching old stuff.

looks like spykids on netflix and like bad cosplay....

why does alot of the shots all look CG?

 

[mortal]

Not sure if it'll impress as much as Fury Road did.
Not crazy about the casting either, but I'll trust George Miller.

 

[Heimdall_Xtreme]

where is mad max?

 

[March Climber]

I’ll have a different reaction than The Cockatrice and wait to see more.

I liked it enough however I will point out a different problem with what I’m seeing: in a dirty, sandy environment, everyone simply looks too clean.

 

[BennyBlanco]

Looks like shit.

 

[Billbofet]

This looks like a tv show version of a much superior movie it is based on.
ATJ cannot pull this character off without it feeling like she's acting. Charlize she ain't. Disney-level CG.
Plus, if it's a backstory, there's no tension when you see a bunch of characters from the future version of it.
Fury Road is one of my favorite movies, so it's probably why I'm so harsh, yet if it wasn't based on this IP, it would look like generic trash, so I'm torn...

 

[Days like these...]

I stopped at "Fyuurioza". I giggle like a school girl every time I hear it pronounced like that. I just can't hard pass.

 

[Ulysses 31]

where is mad max?

At the side line being a side character.

 

[Laieon]

The adrenaline rush of non stop action in FR wore off very quickly for me, and I've just never been able to get that high watching it that apparently so many others have been able to get. It's one of two movies I've fallen asleep in theaters watching, the other being Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. I like ATJ quite a bit, but this trailer did nothing for me.

Hot take: Spy Kids is a better movie than Fury Road. The CG in this trailer definitely looks laughably bad for a big budget movie though.

 

[Husky]

HELL YEAH. Mad Max is one of my favorite film series. Can't wait.
This trailer looks oddly synthetic, wondering if the final effects will look the same way. Kind of reminds me of the RAGE 2 announcement teaser, or like one of those digital backlot movies (300, Sin City—Spy Kids, as was mentioned above).

 

[dispensergoinup]

Not sure if I dig the Borderlands 3 poster, but it's something!

Edit: That title card reveal with her looking down on Joe is amazing.

 

[Men_in_Boxes]

This looks like The Lion King II to the originals The Lion King. Straight to DVD looking crapola.

 

[MayauMiao]

I'll go see this since I really love the world of Mad Max.

 

[MrA]

Chris Hemsworth dressed like Thor in a movie that isn't Thor is distracting as possible.

Looks horrible to me. Way too much cgi and depth of field....Looks a million times inferior to the previous Mad Max.

Dafuk is this garbage lmao?

this looks like a crap composite image a highschooler would put together.

 

[Futaleufu]

the "45 years later" line doesnt make sense at all in the established lore

 

[SlimySnake]

This is why men die earlier than women. I waited 7 fucking years for this movie and George Miller crafts this cg fuckfest. WTF. THe first movie was praised because of its reliance on stunts and practical effects. it was impossible to spot cg in the first one. here its everywhere.

Our fucking heroes letting us down.

At least Anna Taylor Joy looks the part. but my god why so much cg??!!?!!

 

[MrA]

the "45 years later" line doesnt make sense at all in the established lore

that would put max at like what? 90? and even if it supposed to be at the time of Fury Road that would be like 70 instead

 

[Chuck Berry]

I love Taylor-Joy and I love this franchise

But what the fuck happened here? Way too much CGI and lack of CGI and using all natural and practical effects is what made the franchise so special in the first place.

Fuck man. Well…

Off to reinstall Avalanches Mad Max 2015

 

[MayauMiao]

the "45 years later" line doesnt make sense at all in the established lore

Only if its from Mel Gibson version of Mad Max.

But then again, even the original lore was kind of broken.

 

[What A Shame...]

If this is the future of blockbuster movies then that's real fucking shame. I can't ever be in awe of a big action set piece when it looks like a video game.

 

[SlimySnake]

lol Sin City everyone. In 10 years, maybe nolan too will be making cg movies.

 

[j0hnnix]

At least it's directed by Miller.. but yeah, I'm not excited for this at all.. I saw it come up during cowboy game commercial and shrugged it off.. and I love anything Mad Max but this looks like a direct to VHS.

 

[Fake]

'A Mad Max Saga' without Mad Max.

Next time try to remove the name Mad Max from the movie title and see how works.

 

[SirKicksalot]

Fury Road had tons of CGI and compositing. Like all the terrain they were driving over, all the canyon walls... and one of Tom Hardy's ears because they dropped a subplot of him hearing that drad kid through an earpiece. If you go back to the original teaser it has unfinished effects and comps. But nothing as horrible as the "chariot" shot lmao

 

[MaestroMike]

Holy sh!t !!! I’m fukken hyped

 

[freefornow]

'A Mad Max Saga' without Mad Max.

Yeah, "A Wasteland Saga" would be more fitting, but name recognition I guess.

 

[AJUMP23]

Beard looks bad and fake and far to clean for desert

other than that I’m good.

 

[MrTroubleMaker]

Would have rather seen more Max.

 

[Dr_Salt]

I love Fury Road but this looks bad.

 

[chromhound]

They couldn't ask Mel Gibson to play in a sequel?

 

[NoLootBoxDev]

Damn....It looks bad, too much GCI that looks like shit. I had great hopes for this movie

 

[Fbh]

WTF happened to the visuals?
Fury Road was such a brilliant mix of practical and digital effects, but almost every shot in this trailer looks horrible. CG and greenscreen galore.

they shot the whole movie in green screen

and not the new UE5 screens most tv shows and movies use nowadays. this is literally green screen stuff used by snyder in 300.

House of dragon and mandalorian look better than this.

Well damn hype completely gone.
I mean the world and characters are fun but it was the visual spectacle that made Fury Road special.

This looks like some straight to DVD sequel. "Mad Max: a Disney Channel original"

 

[Madflavor]

From what I understand, as awesome as Fury Road was with it's usage of practical effects and stunts, filming it was an absolute nightmare. Like it was legit one of the most difficult to shoot action films in history. So my guess is that 78 year old George Miller didn't have it in him to go through that again.

The noticeable CGI effects are a disappointment, but I can appreciate that the film looks highly stylized which could make up for that.

 

[Trogdor1123]

Looks pretty awesome to me. Definitely excited to see it.

They also to film it in some country that had “different” rules on safety or something, didn’t they?

Yep. this is why i just laugh at people who put these video game and movie people up on a pedestal. no, they dont know everything. yes, they are prone to making massive mistakes. this is such an unforced error. the movie was loved because it didnt look cg in a sea of cg movies. so you make the sequel a cg fest? absolutely idiotic choice.

this is what fury road looked like btw. it too had cg but it didnt feel like it.

Even the fully CG scenes were tastefully done.

Maybe Tarrantino has the right idea. Directors should just quit after 10 movies.

yeah, but those challenges are precisely why it was nominated for all those oscars and won pretty much all of them. its why the movie was such a massive global success. especially for an r rated movie.

to get away from that just because its hard and follow current cg norms when everyone is fucking sick of them is all kinds of lame.

 

[clarky]

Loads of time to sort the frankly terrible CGI. Hopefully.

 

[PaddyOCanager]

Fury Road was amazing.

This looks like complete shit.

 

[jufonuk]

 

[bitbydeath]

Should have made a new character to base this around. I’m instantly turned off watching knowing she survives. Where’s the stakes?

 

[TaylorSwiftFan]

There are only 3 Mad Max movies.

 

[sankt-Antonio]

A Mad Max movie without Mad Max. lol. Who needed this? Why not just make a new Mad Max movie?
