I specifically said that the low quality CGI gives it the fan film flavor. I did not comment on the direction or cinematography or anything else really. It just genuinely reminds me of the weird platicy-shiny CGI you see in fan films.

That trailer looked like some piece of garbage I shot in my back yard with a VHS camcorder!!!

It looked alright. Compared to the Fury Road teaser it felt more character focused and didn't have many action shots. I was even lukewarm on that teaser too. Wasn't until I saw the main trailer for Fury Road that I sold me on the film. I was more excited by the prospect of revisiting that world more than I was by the things in the Furiosa trailer. The song was baller, though.

That shot in Fury Road where the steering wheel flies at the camera is ok but the cgi in the Furiosa trailer is not? Ok goons

I've heard complaints about that shot in real life and I had to bite my tongue.

I am ride or die for Miller and don't think this trailer looks good. It looks like a Netflix movie. I want to believe!

I thought the trailer was underwhelming and agree that the CG looks rough even for a trailer cut, which probably will get more negative reactions than usual due to the (false) belief that most of Fury Road was practical.

That said I still expect the final film to kick rear end. Miller has a stellar track record and the cast is great. I’ll be in the cinema on day one.

the only thing that really stood out to me is furiosa's prosthetic arm, which looks significantly worse than the one in fury road did

Furiosa looks exceedingly digital was my first impression, orange and teal rear end movie. Which I tend to subconsciously read as "straight to VOD"

But Fury Road had that same look I'm pretty sure.

Furiosa looks like a lot of fun. I’m reading that book about the production of fury road currently, and maybe they went a simpler path for this one vs the hell that everyone hated in fury road.

So my company's trailer team worked on the Furiosa trailer (managing the translations/subtitling for international versions) so I got a chance to watch this in one of our office's big theater rooms.

It looks very good on a big screen.

Loved Fury Road and still looking forward to this, but yeah that CG looks very rough. What worries me the most are the shots where a vehicles’ movement seems off and that it weighs as much as one of my son’s plastic monster trucks.

How significantly does unfinished trailer CG get touched up? I figured it just got a couple lighting and texture passes.

I wonder where it was filmed because I don't think they'd be welcome back to Namibia after they hosed up so much conserved land making Fury Road

There are quite a lot of examples of shots getting dramatically upgraded between trailers and final films. Quite a lot can potentially be done.

I just started watching Fury Road again and he does say in his opening narration that he was a cop before the collapse. so he's a very handsome 80

The CGI is obviously unfinished but no one is complaining that the trailer needed fifteen seconds of head cards to explain the plot before getting into any real footage? Like if you realized your movie has no story or is incomprehensible just do a fuckin music video like Charlie's Angels 2.

Yeah those text cards kinda fit the… grindhouse is the wrong word, but whatever gritty filmmaking vibe the mad max series has.

As for the timeline stuff, the mad max series timeline has never been comprehensible. The whole concept is that its legends told around a post apocalyptic fire and people are very hazy about the actual time scale and attribute the actions of multiple people to single legendary names.

The framing devices in every film after the first one can be taken to suggest they're all separate stories collected and passed down through oral tradition with the details changing to accommodate one mythical figure connecting them as a single saga.

the original Max might be long dead if he ever lived at all.

or it could be a nod to the first Mad Max coming out just about 45 years ago.

Furiosa looks cool. Just reset your expectations from it being Fury Road 2. It doesn't look like it's going for the same vibe as Fury Road, which actually had a ton of restraint compared with all the concept art and wilder preproduction work they did for the film. This looks like it's leaning much more into the big weird 90s edgy Tank Girl/Image Comics/Heavy Metal version of the world which is seen in that art, and which Thunderdome somewhat anticipated but was too mild to pull off. Neat!

Have you not watched Fury Road recently? That poo poo's straight out of a copy of 2000 AD from 1995

I don’t understand showing bad CG in a trailer. You can just do a shorter trailer that doesn’t show bad CG.

ASK ME ABOUT BEING ALLERGIC TO POSITIVITY

I'm all in on anything Miller wants to do in this universe, but calling this and odyssey at the start of the trailer and then showing us all the same poo poo we saw in Fury Road was disappointing. Looks like there's very few new ideas in this.

This has never been a franchise with that many new ideas. Every Mad Max movie is built on the idea that "car goes vroom!"
