When Michael Jackson advanced the art of using a spatial camera, we did see that become common very quickly, first through Hollywood's use of WETA, and then other shops. I hope other Australian productions adopt this technique, as it seems both very advanced cinematically and wholly Australian. I don't know of any other film save Derzu Uzala that attempts this, and all Kurosawa had was snow. The cinematographer seems to have been aboard in the way he overexposes and undersaturates, especially during the 'night' scenes. The result is an astonishing effect of surface become air. Different technologies are required, but a similar notion of texture was used, and the two are combined in the dust storm near the beginning. This is the first time I know that a big film used the same effects shop (Melbourne-based Iloura) for both composites (the deserts and cliffs) and dust. Most of the stunts were practical, but all of the environments were artificial. Among the Australian notions is a new one: architectural dust. The trick with these is to exaggerate enough to make us laugh but not so much that we don't engage with it in its terms. But it now employs a reverse irony on the motorcycle gang trope, moving it into Fast and Furious car territory, merged with comic heavy metal and pushed into humor. It is still overly Australian, more about that in a moment. After decades, it is still the most pure of science fiction abstractions. Mad Max joined this to an equally unique cinematic convention: the chase.

It is a wholly cinematic convention made real, like movie gangster talk as adopted by the Mafia. The notion of lawlessness unique to motorcycles is from Marlon Brando as copied by Sonny Barger. (Paris being romantic is another.) The notion of a motorcycle gang originated in California after WWII where returning GIs (mostly tattooed navy men who had served in the South Pacific) bought surplus army motorcycles.
It is peculiar in being largely a cinematic invention. That fragment revolved around one of our most peculiar social constructions, the wild motorcycle gang. It was pure science fiction in that it abstracted our world into a future where only the tiniest fragment of what we know was carried over and amplified. It was overtly Australian in a few dimensions which hit a niche of the familiar exotic. “That is what’s truly terrifying to some men – not that Theron has more lines than actor Tom Hardy.The first Mad Max had a few strong attractions. From director George Miller, originator of the post-apocalyptic genre and mastermind behind the legendary Mad Max franchise, comes Mad Max: Fury Road, a return to the world of the Road Warrior, Max Rockatansky. In a sun-parched future, loner Max gets caught up in the. “It’s not feminist because Theron’s character gets to engage in as much violence as any other action lead, but because the world director and writer George Miller has created shows the horror of sexism and the necessity of freedom from patriarchy,” wrote the Guardian’s Jessica Valenti. 90 Metascore 2015 2 hr 0 mins Action & Adventure, Science Fiction R Watchlist. Miller first alluded to the prospect of an Imperator Furiosa film in January 2016, telling Entertainment Weekly: “She’s a pretty compelling character, so it’d be great to tell her story … Her backstory is pretty interesting we only allude to it in this movie.” But Mad Max sequels have been held up, after Miller’s production company sued Warner Bros for unpaid earnings from Fury Road.Īlthough it was controversial among the men’s rights activist groups who derided the decision to have a female-led Mad Max film, Fury Road won six Oscars, netted US$375.2m at the global box office, and was praised by feminist critics for its dystopian depiction of the effects of male patriarchy. Hemsworth – who will begin filming the next movie in the Thor franchise in Australia in March – will star alongside her in Furiosa, as will Abdul Mateen II, who starred as Black Manta in Aquaman and is currently filming the fourth Matrix film. She also had a lead role in the 2016 horror film Split and its 2019 sequel Glass. Taylor-Joy, an American-born Argentinian-British actor who is currently starring as a chess genius in The Queen’s Gambit, most recently played Emma Woodhouse in the 2020 adaptation of Jane Austen’s Emma.
