(This message was added in version 6.7.0.) in /home2/jedmond/public_html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6114Mad Max: Fury Road<\/strong> came out on Friday and of course I went and saw it.<\/p>\n If you remember an earlier article of mine I gave my opinion on what I thought about Mad Max and it has stuck with me. I loved Fury Road and it is easily my favorite Mad Max film to date. It kept all the elements of the previous movies and added more new fresh ones. If you read Robert Goldshaw\u2019s ‘Things I Noticed Last Week’ article you would know that he actually didn\u2019t enjoy the movie. I\u2019m going to bring up a few of his points and tell you whether or not I agree with them.<\/p>\n He talked about the obvious lack of dialogue in the movie, which I can understand but let\u2019s think back to Road Warrior<\/strong> for a second. Max only had about 17 lines! Yet we still understood his intentions. You see, I think that the dialogue isn\u2019t necessary because you could tell by the way that the characters where interacting exactly what they intended. You could compare it to a silent film – no one says anything but emotions are still clearly seen. I think the fact that Hardy and Theron acted with little dialogue and still played excellent characters shows their talent as actors.<\/p>\n Goldshaw also notes how Mad Max is a B-movie so it should be over the top. I thought the man playing the guitar\/flamethrower on top of a car topped with speakers and men painted white spraying chrome colored spray paint onto their mouths when they were about to die was over the top enough! I\u2019m not saying Goldshaw is wrong, exactly, I just have a different opinion.<\/p>\n (<\/em><\/strong>At the time of writing this article I was under the impression that feminism was a negative word. What I was really talking about are radical feminists, the kind who put down men. Now I \u00a0do consider myself a feminist by the classical definition, so keep that in mind.)<\/em> I\u2019d also like to touch on the ridiculous controversy going on with Fury Road right now. Some people are claiming that Mad Max is feminist propaganda. If that isn\u2019t the most bullshit statement I’ve heard about a movie, I don\u2019t know what is. Just because Max is accompanied by strong female characters along his journey, doesn\u2019t make this feminist propaganda. No I don\u2019t think so. Let\u2019s not forget this movie was directed by George Miller who also directed the first three movies of Mad Max. It\u2019s not like its some new director taking over the franchise. It just goes to show how much more negative people are acting, these days.<\/p>\n
