Watched it for the first time in like 5 years and man, this movie is so good. The action, the characters, the visuals, everything. I really wish more action movies were like this. Also I wonder if the used squib effects :matt:

I thought the first mad max was supposed to be reactionary
He supported to be a cop that kills degenerate criminals
Yeah. And then they got much better.
I can't think of any other series of sci fi stories that's just like "Yeah, we're going to have lots of people with lots of kinds of disabilities and they're going to be important to the story for reasons that aren't about their disabilities. Mad Max 2 has an entire action scene where the Mechanic, who is parapalegic, is fighting from a turret in the back of the tanker. At one point he's set on fire and uses his catheter bag to put it out. It's just... part of the action sequence.
Other themes involve labor power, train, pig poop balls, feminism, unreliable guns, vroom vroom, anti-heroes, anti-villains, and capitalism.
The original really isn't even that good, and yeah has that reactionary bent. It was Mad Max 2 that made the franchise interesting for many reasons like you stated.
