3 is a dumpster fire, but some people like it and that’s okay(but I do not and will not).

Fury Road is tied with 1, but is so different a movie it’s silly to compare.

I have not seen Furiosa.

    Its set during the pre-apocalypse. The decline is starting, and eventually it leads to a nuclear exchange.

      I’m curious how much of that was intentional. I think Miller just wanted to make a cool action movie, and the whole idea it was the apocalypse came while he was working on 2. When I watch the first one it just feel like it was an exaggeration of what life in rural Australia was like in the 70s, in that everything was run down, cops were more blatantly psycho than they are now, and gangs could get away with some crazy BS. Less like there is an actual looming apocalypse.
