I think a lot of the hype was because people who really got into the movie started reading the comics and commentary and conflating the character development and themes that occur in those with what is actually written in the film. The film is pretty spare on that front, though, which is cool. That's Miller's style.

I enjoyed it as an action film: watched it in the theater and bought a copy to watch at home, but never watched it again after that because the movie struck me as just that, an awesome action film, another terrific Road Warrior film, visually stunning this time. The visual effects have never been better. I like Thunderdome the best in terms of characters and plot. The characters in that get fleshed out a fair bit more, especially Auntie Entity and the desert kids. It's the women and girls in that community who break out to find the better place, btw. Fury wasn't Miller's first feminist film. And even Master/Blaster turns out to have a backstory we comprehend. It's a pretty little set piece. I have watched it countless times.

Weren't the comics kind of terrible, though? (<--Has not actually read the comics herself, but read several reviews of them.)

And I first watched Fury Road without having read any in-depth commentary or (natch) the comics, and I loved it. It hits the exact same emotional spot for me that CA: TWS does, where I'm so overwhelmed by the combination of the action and my feels that I basically sob my way through the movie every time I watch it.

That's cool. Different reactions. I'm just glad the movie did well. There were more women as action heroes in the 90s and then they stopped making movies with them for a while. There was a backlash of some kind. Sucks. I'm glad the wheel's finally turning again.

DA

Yeah the comics were bad and are collectively ignored for running contrary to the themes in the movie. Different writer to the movies and the comic writer clearly missed a lot of shit.
