Just saw Furiosa in theaters again because I wanted to check out the Mr. Harley subplot/fan theory (here’s a rundown with spoilers https://www.reddit.com/r/MadMax/comments/1dg5ou3/made_a_point_to_keep_a_close_eye_on_mr_harley/) and it’s wild how obvious it is if you’re looking, while at the same time being totally not obvious if you aren’t paying attention to it. This was my 6th time watching and my first time catching any of it!!
#I think it’s because he’s always in scenes with Dementus and he’s a scene stealer tbh#but if you make a point to watch him when he’s on screen his journey and character are fantastic#another one of those tapestry threads George Miller was talking about with Kojima in that interview#you see his actions and reactions the whole movie in such a way that when he possibly does the thing people think he did#it makes sense#I mean I caught the stuff where he was gonna string her up by the other arm but literally nothing else#Furiosa

It's Fowlfest AU Day. And I thought I could yap about my Mad Max AU.
For convenience humans would know about fairies and fairies are closer to human sizes in this AU. In the normal Mad Max AU way the Earth would be an apocalyptic wasteland, the earth is spoiled and magic has become almost nonexistent even to fairies. Between the loss of magic and the radiation fairies are suffering. Holly, her mother and Vinyáya would be part of the Many Mothers, protecting one of the last magical ritual sites; the Green Place.
Out in the wasteland Opal would be gathering power both by hoarding magic and technology. She would've long since forced Foaly to help her in her quest to become the queen of this irradiated Earth. Their paths would eventually cross when one of Opal's scouting parties would manage to capture Holly and her mother, after Coral got injured near one of Opal's waste dumping sites.
Opal would become obsessed with finding the magical site the many mothers are protecting after learning Holly and Coral still have their magic. And after Coral dies from her injuries Opal keeps Holly as her captive slowly draining her of her magic one spark at a time hoping to wring out the location of the Green Place. During her years as a captive Holly befriends Foaly as her hatred towards Opal festers.
Eventually Opal's growing gang would come across the Citadel that is being led by Kronski and his extinctionists, holding court to determine who is useful enough for them to live and who will die for their survival.
#my art#fowlfest2024#mad max au#af#artemis fowl#holly short#and then there's More but i will be keeping my secrets#if you've seen furiosa and fury road you'll see where this is going#i don't know how guns don't look too close at it thanks bye mwah ily

I could write an entire essay (and perhaps one day I will) on how 'Furiosa' is Gothic fiction, a Gothic romance in particular, but I just need to talk about one key aspect of the relationship between Furiosa and Jack for a minute. A lot of discussion surrounding them has been about the nature of their relationship. Most people seem to love the ambiguity, myself included, and I think looking at it through a Gothic romance lens can help us understand why it works so well.
Most Gothic romances feature a heroine who is trapped inside a literal and/or figurative domestic space by a domineering man, typically a father or husband. Poor Furiosa gets both. Dementus imprisons her in the role of daughter. Immortan Joe imprisons her in the role of wife. These are restrictive domestic roles which have been forced upon her and which she cannot freely walk away from. Gothic romance is at its best when it is exposing and critiquing the cruelty of a patriarchal society and the unfair limitations it places upon women.
Furiosa evades attention by disguising herself as a boy. When Jack realises she is actually a woman, and that she is determined to leave the Wasteland, he immediately offers to help her get to wherever she needs to go. No questions asked. And what does Jack expect in return? Absolutely nothing. The trope of a good man, with experience, skill, and social standing, selflessly assisting the heroine, is quite common in Gothic romance.
Jack's words to Furiosa are never paternalistic. They speak to one another as equals. Dementus wanted to shape Furiosa in his own image, but Jack only wants to pass on what he knows. He doesn't want her to stay his protégé or sidekick. He wants her to be able to take care of herself. Until she asks him to come with her, he has every intention of letting her go her own way, leaving him behind.
Jack never comments on Furiosa's appearance. They dress as equals. Immortan Joe put Furiosa in delicate fabrics and planned to use her body for his own selfish desires, but Jack only ever touches Furiosa for her own sake. He doesn't want to possess her. He wants to protect her. He cleans and stitches up her wounds. He will place a comforting hand on her shoulder, only for as long as it takes for her to relax beneath his touch.
It's important to remember that this is a thematic tale being told to us by a History Man, a framing device which is extremely befitting of the Gothic genre. Within this legend, Jack and Furiosa's disregard for clearly defined domestic roles draws a stark contrast to the priorities of Dementus and Immortan Joe. It serves to highlight that their dynamic is free from patriarchal dominance. Whether their relationship is sexual or platonic, romantic or familial, is irrelevent. What matters is that their relationship is based upon genuine concern, deep respect, and unwavering trust. This is the lesson of their story, and it is a lesson for all to the hear. Jack does not merely represent a good father or a good husband or a good mentor. He represents it all. His character is fluid and multi-dimensional. His relationship with Furiosa is ever-shifting and all-encompassing. This allows him to be a role model to all men. But I digress from talking about Gothic fiction!
True domestic happiness for the Gothic romance heroine is only possible once she finds a companion who treats her as a peer; a social equal who gives her the freedom to choose and define the role she wishes to have in his life. It also requires finding or creating a refuge in which the heroine is safe from male power and violence. Furiosa found a more than worthy partner in Jack. Unfortunately, they didn't succeed in reaching freedom together.
Perhaps, in a less Gothic setting than the Wasteland, putting a name to what they were wouldn't have mattered so much. As it was, "my Jack" and "my Fury" was enough.
#anyway listen#come in close so i can whisper#one of my absolute favourite gothic romance tropes is two people reuniting after years apart#especially if one or both assumed that the other was dead#so uh basically what i'm saying is the rules of the genre say that jack could be alive somehow#there's a version of this story where he comes back to her one day#nine times out of ten it is better when a dead character stays dead#i love a good tragedy#i love the pain#but i'm not the mood for it today#you can take your tragedy and shove it up your arse#furiosa & jack#furiosa#film#l

At this, a black cloud of despair engulfed Achilles. With both hands he scooped up fistfuls of soot and dust and poured it on his head, and rubbed the dirt across his handsome face. Black ashes settled on his scented tunic.
"My friend Patroclus, whom I loved, is dead. I loved him more than any other comrade. I loved him like my head, my life, myself. I lost him, killed him."
Swift-footed Lord Achilles, in despair, told her, "I want to die right here and now, because I could not save my slaughtered friend. He died so very far away from home. He needed me to help and protect him. And I did not go back to my dear country, nor did I save Patroclus. I provided no light or help to him or anybody."
The Iliad, translated by Emily Wilson; Book 18: Divine Armor, lines 27-31, 99-102, 121-128

Thinking about Hope and Glory is reminding me once again that if/when we see The Wasteland adapted it’ll be the THIRD time we see what happens to them being depicted in another format.
#Begging Miller for at least an alternate timeline where they’re okay#Or maybe at least Hope survives#I am delusional but I just want them to have something alright#H&G#Hope#Glory#Mad Max#Mad Max: The Wasteland#Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga#MM

There was a weird lack of star power on the red carpet last night for the met gala--
none of the usual major looks-- rihanna, blake lively, beyonce
none of the supermodels outside of gigi
no one from Dune (Zendaya excepted), Barbie, any major movie this spring/summer except for Challengers, Where was Anne Hathaway? LUPITA?? she has a huge movie coming out!
It felt weirdly niche? Like why was Chris Hemsworth a chair? he himself admitted he'd never even been before and didn't know what it was about or how it worked.
Obviously a huge push from the Loewe crowd, but it otherwise felt very thin. Too much reliance on influencers/kardashians.
ALSO this also feels kind of like those years on SNL when everyone major leaves at once and you're like who are all these people and then 2 years later you're like, how did this shoe survive without Bowen Yang? But still felt thin on star power, even up and coming star power.

this is going to be an extremely negative review about furiosa
if you liked it, i am so happy that you got something from it, but i nearly cried tears of anger and frustration. i know that's a bit of an overreaction but mad max: fury road got me back into writing fanfiction, it got me into action movies, and it made me more interested in cinema as a medium
all that to say
i not only disliked this movie, i actively hated it, and i think it brings the franchise down. i'm going to indiscriminately get into spoilers but, like... please save yourself the money and don't watch this movie
first off, i was not jazzed for anya taylor joy when i first found out about the casting and yeah. she didn't sell me on furiosa. she doesn't look like her, sound like her, or bring anything to the role at all. this was severe miscasting, and i hate to think it was just because she's hollywood's hot commodity at the moment, but i can't think of another reason. (on a separate note, chris hemsworth was the one bright spot in this movie imo - he was actually really good)
the editing and cinematography had some good moments but was overall off-putting. instead of being spellbound by the whole movie like i was with fury road, i marked a few shots that were stellar
i HATED the plot. i cannot FATHOM why you would center this movie around some random guy who actually makes immortan joe look like a hero??? after watching this, i actually cannot understand why furiosa stole the wives from him. he respected her opinions, saved her from the guy she centered her whole life around hating, and just in general did not do anything to convince me that furiosa would hate him. i fucking hate this. why would you do this, george miller
i don't like jack. i don't know him. i don't buy that furiosa would tell him where the green place is because SHE DOESN'T KNOW HIM EITHER. WHY ARE ALL THESE RANDOM GUYS INFATUATED WITH FURIOSA. STOP IT STOP IT STOP IT
like seriously, rictus, immortan joe, jack, fucking chris hemsworth's character whose name i am too upset to remember - they all just take one look at furiosa and go ride-or-die for her and i DON'T UNDERSTAND
we don't see her with the wives. we don't see furiosa with the wives. i don't understand why she was so loyal to them. i wanted to see her build a relationship with them, goddammit, that is the part of furiosa's backstory i CARED ABOUT
the fact that she used the fucking peach pit on this NOBODY of a man and didn't save it to rebuild the green place. she planted it in the citadel, a place she ostensibly hated and didn't realize she would be returning to. she used the peach pit her mother gave her in the home of who we're supposed to be her biggest enemy to get revenge on a dude who doesn't fucking matter in the scheme of her life. look how they massacred my girl. furiosa, sweetie, i'm so, so sorry everything in this movie centered around a goddamn MAN
i mean, they basically fridged her mother. this is every "dead wife as motivation for revenge story," it's just a mom this time. what the fuck, that's so fucking shallow. you really couldn't come up with anything better. no one pitched ANYTHING better??? bullshit
#furiosa#movie reel#extreme rant and this isn't even everything that upset me#i don't understand a lick of the plot#where the fuck did the horse come from#you know the one at the very beginning#where'd the motorcycle guys find a horse to butcher#was it the green place#are the many mothers that shit at defending their territory they just let a bunch of dudes on noisy vehicles get deep into their jungle#sorry i don't buy it#was it a freeroaming horse then#was that it#where was this gang getting their gas anyway#for those motorcycles#fuck i hated this movie
