anybody else have their best buy preorder change to back ordered?
Gaf as a whole probably not, but I'm up for it! As a blockbuster, it literally steamrolls every other piece of insipid trash that's been shoved down our throats since, dunno, Bourne Ultimatum?, but as a movie its certainly not perfect, and I fear the shortcomings will be even more evident on rewatches for me
having said that, my hands are all sweaty for this piece of junk

Best Mad Max Fury Road filming commentary is @ https://vimeo.com/127381179
They should include this presentation as a BD extra.

It's too bad you missed it. I've watched this masterpiece 5 times on the cinema and recently rewatched it at home. The movie is still awesome, but it's not as epic.
The red storm and Nux's witness me moments especially. VALHALLA!

This film is so good.
The only thing that bothers me is the 'let them up' ending. None of it makes sense to me.

All of the versions seems to have the same extras, so why not get the gorgeous steelbook?
I watched this yesterday and WOW. You just don't get films like this one very often. It was an absolute thrill from beginning to end. George Miller is freaking amazing! I couldn't believe the action scenes and the amount of work that went into them. And don't get me started on the music and cinematography! That scene when Charlize Theron's character finds out the truth about the Green Land is probably one of the most iconic scenes I have ever seen. So powerful!

Yay, my BB steelbook preorder was showing up as backordered for the last week but now everything seems okay.

All the same extras? Well that does seem to make the decision easier. Thanks for the confirmation.

I just figured they had killed most of the people that could be legitmate usurpers to Immortan Joe. Furiosa was an Imperator, so maybe they would just accept her as the new one in command.

Immortan Joe was a god to these people. They're not going to go against the woman who brings them his corpse.

Hey guys, here is Brothers in Arms again from Fury Road. WITNESS

How the hell not. The warboys are a tribe. Immortan Joe was the warlord. Furiosa was an Imperator (lieutenant) of Joe's army. She was just as feared as Joe. Joe was killed in a coup by Furiosa. When she took over, they knew better not to mess with her.
That moment at 4:10 where the grenades sync up with the soundtrack was the moment the movie went from 'holy crap this is really really great' to GOAT.
And now I want to watch it again damn.

The scene when the rigs battering ram is lowered to put out the fire syncs so well with the music, Everytime I see it I get goosebumps. Also the ending just felt so right. I have to say this has been the best movie I've seen in a very long time. This soundtrack needs to win some awards.

Ralph Potts at AVS reviewed the blu. I trust his reviews and needless to say he's making the wait so much worse.

I'm going to be cranking that one loud when I enter the outer boundaries of the map in the Mad Max game since it's supposed to be nothing but toxic storms! lol

Despite the A/V on the disc it's a pretty barebones release. Also WB likely wants to capitalize on the video game too which launches on the same day.

It's around an hour of bonus features on the disc, and they are quite good. Not that barebones compared to some other releases. Obviously I would like more, but what is there is quite good.

No 2015 Oscar Contender Has Been Better Than Mad Max: Fury Road
Time to start building a campaign, Warners!

I actually believe it should have a strong shot at the Oscars. At least it should get many nominations.

Anyone know who's selling a steelbook version?

I legitimately think it can get 8 Oscar noms, with little to no trouble. Editing, Cinematography, Makeup, Production Design, Costume Design, Sound Editing, Sound Mixing, Visual Effects. Score is more of a longshot, but still a very strong possibility.
The question is whether or not Warners will want to support it through awards season to push it for major categories (Actress, Director, Picture). And really the only major contender they have at this point is In the Heart of the Sea.

I just realized that I've spent over $200 on this movie between all the tickets I bought and the digital release last week.
No regrets,
No regrets,

Upcoming Blu-Ray
And let's be real, it's the movie that convinced me to buy the videogame, even if they aren't related.
Yeah, getting close to $200 myself.

Us talking about Oscars? Sure.
Entertainment writers and industry trades talking about Oscars? Whole different ballgame.
It's up to Warners to mount the campaign.

Shiny and chrome.
In case anyone was wondering, because the product details haven't been the best: Five discs (four Blu-rays and one DVD), Fury Road has everything the regular version has, with the exception of the 3D and digital copy (some sites didn't seem to list "Deleted Scenes" on this version, but they are there.) The cards look like they are just the images used for each film's theatrical poster.
I don't have any other physical copies besides Mad Max (Scream Factory's version) and this is missing some special features found on that one (interviews, trailers, Mel Gibson featurette, photo gallery).
This is all by just examining the contents of the package.
