So basically "expendables" with less script and added "visual symbolism" gotcha
nikkas in here talking about "movie of the decade" :childplease:

I'm with you. I saw it and was :ehh: at the whole movie, but not outrageously amazed like folks on here and in real life are. Until I saw your post I was like maybe I need to give this shyt another look or something. Like I told someone else the other day I think Dredd did the whole silent angry brooding hero/class symbolism/dystopia thing better.

You should, and instead of just rolling with it pay closer attention to what's really being said beyond the surface of 'we have to survive'.

I think Ultron is a great movie but Mad Max is so far ahead of anything done in years that if you can't see it, you might need to turn in your film card and start over.
what was great about ultron? 10 years from now nobody is going to be talking about fukkin' age of ultron. Ultron wasn't bad but like a lot of superhero flicks, ultimately very forgettable.

I suggest you look up some of my posts in the Ultron thread because I've already written on it expansively. But the short version, as always, remains that although it's not a deep movie, it achieves most of what it sets out to do outside of some nitpicking flaws that I can largely forgive.

meh, i mean, i agree with this but imo that doesn't make it a "great movie". I thought it was a good movie, but I don't see myself rewatching it much in the future like mad max. idk, it might just be me though, sometimes I'm a little hard on these comic book flicks because while most of them are solid movies they seem more like cash grabs and not something a director was really inspired to direct.

Like I said, that's the short version.

Right.. it was a good movie as far as action and visuals, but nikkas in here talking bout movie of the decade? :mjlol: fukk outa here...

And no its not imo better than Ultron... Avengers 2 delivered everything and more and I was blown away from start to finish.. that shyt delivered..

Watching MadMax the majority of the time I was :dwillhuh::dahell::what: Especially for the first 45 minutes.. followed by a two hour long repetitive car chase

Some people are too dimwitted to witnessed the allegorical moralistic tale and the symbolic relevancy of Fury Road in comparison to how our society is currently as well as historically. This film is a warning shot if we, and more specifically the so-called LEADERS of this world don't get their shyt together.

But enjoy the childish amateurish nature of Age of Ultron, though. :upsetfavre:
I'm going to ride out shiny and chrome, historic on the Fury Road! :blessed:

The Expendables? What in the fukk?

And honestly, there's more in this script than in any Expendables flick. Just because the plot isn't contrived bullshyt existing solely to move the characters from one rehashed set piece to the next, doesn't mean the script isn't smaller.

It's a tighter script, but it tells you plenty about the world without actually stating anything.

Forgot how much beyond thunder dome sucks, about halfway through it turns into a kids flick with the lord of the flies and never land children
