Jut saw Mad Max: Furiosa. I wasn't expecting it to be great but still had fun.
The film breaks from the mad max formula in many ways, What little character Furiosa has is different from Max, Max is a survivor while Furiosa is out for vengeance, Max has a bit of humor to his character while Furiosa is always stern. Mad Max movies all take place in a short period of time while Furiosa jumps years ahead at points.
But some of the best elements of Mad Max are still there. The new locations and vehicles are cool, there are plenty of the interesting and visually satisfying vehicle chases that Miller is so good at.
I would say the weakest aspect of the movie is a perplexing lack of tension. Aside from a few scenes all the conflict takes place between Furiosa, whos fate is sealed by the fact this is a prequel, and various outlaws that you have no investment in. Also contributing to the lack of tension is the soundtrack, which is fairly low key even during action.
I found this a real shame because Fury Road's greatest attribute was the tension, and this movie doesn't have enough else to take its place.
But still the overall quality of writing/performances/direction and especially action made it worth seeing.

You absolute r-slur, they kill Max's wife and son in the first movie and he spends the rest of the movie seeking revenge on the biker gangs. You absolute r-slur, you neurodivergent waste of oxygen, you profligate dotard, you perpetual gooner, you malfunctioning dreg, keep yourself safe right now. I did not consent to live on the same planet as your r-slurred butt. You should keep yourself safe now.

Also, which Max is he talking about? Mel Gibson or Tom Hardy?
Because Hardy's Max is barely a character lmao.

Mell's Max is only just a bit better. Honestly the main difference is that Mel is more verbal, both of the characters are just survivors trying to get buy until they find themselves allied with the good guys. Oh and Mel smirks sometimes.

I'll watch any slop starring Anya Taylor Joy (I even watched that mediocre Mckay straggy chef movie but at least Ralph Fiennes, Nicholas Hoult and her did their best). I'm still mad Robert Eggers couldn't get her to star Nosferatu and instead casted the Depp broad

Lily Rose is repulsive to look at. If she wasn't a nepobaby she'd be stacking shelves.

I just looked her up and she has the most angle sensitive face I've ever seen. I'd fuck her if she agreed to keep her head still in a vice.

Apparently modern writers have no capacity to have nuance on the male attributes of stoicism, and every heroine is just perpetual resting b-word face

Why do they do it? Foids don't even seem to pack into the movie theater for girlboss characters.
Why not just let manchild franchises be for manchildren?
In some alternate world I'm sure women are having to deal with Twilight or their romantic comedies having the female love interest replaced with, idk, Vin Diesel?

Because they actually believe in their ideology and aren't just cynically trying to maximize profits. Chuds think it's a grift because they want wokeness to be a house of cards. Leftoids want it to be a grift because they cannot believe their allies control the media.

Oh, it's gonna be shit, isn't it?
Fury Road was severely r-slurred and so overwhelmingly fake, so this one is somehow going to be more r-slurred, faker, and gayer?

Do you have a source on that?
Source?
A source. I need a source.
Sorry, I mean I need a source that explicitly states your argument. This is just tangential to the discussion.
No, you can't make inferences and observations from the sources you've gathered. Any additional comments from you MUST be a subset of the information from the sources you've gathered.
You can't make normative statements from empirical evidence.
Do you have a degree in that field?
A college degree? In that field?
Then your arguments are invalid.
No, it doesn't matter how close those data points are correlated. Correlation does not equal causation.
Correlation does not equal causation.
CORRELATION. DOES. NOT. EQUAL. CAUSATION.
You still haven't provided me a valid source yet.
Nope, still haven't.
