I remember reading the blurb for it once on a DVD and it said "Tina Turner takes up what's left of the screen" and I feel like that about summed it up
You ever love someone so much you hate them
Also I voted for the closest to “no” that you gave me

Well, I guess that means you just hate me, no love allowed.

Beyond Thunderdome also had the best opening of any Mad Max as well as the best soundtrack. It's art direction is also as influential as Bladerunner having influenced a legion of creators and media, including yours truly.

It does have the most Fallout aesthetics of the Mad Max movies I will give it that. I compiled a list of "Fallout-core" films to watch before and during my fallout marathons and Road Warrior+Thunderdome were on there, but Fury Road was not.
You just said “yours truly” and am disgusted

I like it, it's classy.

I actually do think that Thunderdome is the best one. Was also the first for me and I had watched it with my cousins when we were little. We would fall asleep to it when staying over either at our houses, or our MawMaw's house. Definitely influenced our playtime on bikes and golf carts, lol.
My first was Road Warrior. Maybe that’s also why I’m biased towards it.

My first was the original movie, because I'm a chad.
The original one was actually pretty good as a film about the collapse of a society, and the loss of a good man’s morality to dystopian horrors.
If viewed next to the other films, it’s worse than Thunderdome. But I really don’t think it was meant to be. It’s less a “postapocalyptic Mad Max” film and more the proto-Joker, the Batman Year One introductory chapter, rather than a member of the “mainstream” Mad Max saga.

In a vacuum it's a cool low budget action movie with a neat setting, which is how it should be viewed and why it's still a good movie. It's not fair to compare it to the rest at all.

Furiosa is slated for June 2023. 2 whole years. Given how Fury Road was I am not filled with anticipation too much.
There’s another main installment coming too.

I will have to look more into the series. Been awhile now.
Do it; we should have a viewing party with the three of us or something, like Toront and I did with Night of the Living Dead.

I should clarify, "yours truly" refers to Fallout.
