    I love Fury Road, it’s possibly my favourite movie of the 2010s and I’ve seen it a dozen times. Truly something special in that film. I skipped Furiosa. Movies are way too damn expensive and it seems like it would be easier to make a list of movies made between 2020-24 that don’t star Anya Taylor-Joy. Throw on the fact that most reviews said it was A) too long and B) no action, no cars, and I figured there wasn’t much reason for me to see it as a Fury Road fan

      If you liked Fury Road you might want to reconsider watching Furiosa. While not as good and definitely too long it is still action packed and has some memorable scenes that I actually enjoyed. It’s not a bad movie imho, especially if you don’t expect it to be as great as the previous one.

        It’s on my Plex, I’ll probably throw it on some night but yeah, a long, self-conscious sequel to one of the most unrestrained movies from a decade ago doesn’t inspire much enthusiasm for me. Besides that I just really don’t like ATJ

          Yeah, you’re not missing anything by skipping Furiosa. The drop in quality is shocking. I say that as a huge Fury Road fan. I’m also a fan of Anya Taylor Joy, Hemsworth, and Tom Burke, who I knew previously and enjoy immensely on his show Strike.

          The writing, directing, art direction and visual effects are almost B-movie level quality compared to Fury Road. It’s like those direct to video Disney sequels to their feature hits. I was so so so disappointed. :(

      Those reviews were wrong, there is definitely action and cars in the movie including some damn impressive Maxless Madness
