What kind of meta are you looking for? Cause most of the meta is gonna be about the women as their treatment in the movie is new, different and a great talking point.

Other meta exists though.

[(Anonymous)]

yeah, I've definitely seen more than a few meta pieces about Max's PTSD and such.

[caerbannog]

I read a great one on Nux a couple of days ago. Don't think I reblogged it tho.

[mekkio]

Personally, I would like a discussion about religion and what Miller is trying to say about it. On the one hand, it seems like he is putting down religion by having a self-appointed god figure that is the head of a cult being completely evil and yet, you have Dag praying to "who ever is listening."

What is he trying to say? He is for religion or at least in a belief in a god/gods but not in organized religion?

[kallanda_lee]

Yesss...I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed! What does faith still mean in a world like that? Or does it become even more important? The War Boys do seem to be, insome way, a death cult, as they know they'll not grow very old.

Personally, I didn't come out of the movie thinking I was supposed to get a particular message about religion. Joe's cult didn't strike me as being a stand-in for all organized religion. Either Miller is really subtle with his message here (certainly possible) or he's not sending one and just exploring how religion might manifest itself it a post-apocalyptic society. I dunno.

[caerbannog]

My thoughts were along this line. I don't reckon it was a commentary on religion exactly so much as how Immortan Joe could use a fanatic cult to his benefit. But I do recall that it's talked about in the art book and making of! I haven't read that far yet but maybe someone else online has?

There has definitely been meta about Valhalla crossing my dash.

Here it is!

[bio_obscura]

I think the message was definitely about how easy it is to control the masses with religion in an environment where they're scared, ignorant, and have so little agency.

please, for the love of god, just stop posting

[(Anonymous)]

you couldn't wait for her to post a comment that was actually annoying? come on, man

[caerbannog]

I'm an atheist.

[(Anonymous)]

and apparently too stupid to understand common expressions.

[caerbannog]

:(

[raspberryrain]

That's rich coming from an anon.

[(Anonymous)]

how does their anonymity make a comment about telling someone to stop posting ironic? people tell "known" anon posters to stop commenting all the time (rad!fem anon for examples). maybe it would have been ironic if they called her a coward for some reason or something

[bio_obscura]

S/he didn't say it was "ironic," the word used was "rich." And it is rich. It's funny every time some anon bitches about a username because y'all know if you attached a recognizable, recurring identifier to everything you said, you'd catch a shitstorm of hate.
