Loved my Typhoon... but had to part with it recently as I simply never drove it. It was quite a bit of work, but did keep it’s value while I had it, (went up a little actually, of course not as much as I put into it but it’s refreshing to have a vehicle appreciate!)

Actually, other than the gimmicky two tone paint (some typhoons were not black, and could get a bit gimmicky... it was the early 90s...)

God, those wheels are awful. This has none of what made the original Typhoon (at least aesthetically) good.

The car shots are nice, but the cut shots of an espresso machine every 20 seconds really started to get on my nerves.

The highlights for me were, by far, Don Rickels, because Don Rickels, and Mel Brooks/Carl Reiner, which gives me anxiety to this day about what happens when one of them dies because they are such a sweet couple.

Yes, it is exactly “fine.”

Lord Edge of Tomorrow was a snorefest compared to its source material. They simplified the whole story of a light novel, made it some crappy, sappy ending, and said “we did it boys” while Tom Cruise plays the one role he always gets to play. Still think his best work was Tropic Thunder because we get to see him in…

LOL hates MM:FR but then recommends another video game movie thats actually not based a video game (Edge of Tomorrow). I mean, I like Edge but I also like Groundhog Day.

So it’s basically just like the present day USA?

There are three towns within their society; water, bullet and gas. They have the three things needed to survive in that world. If they’re running a refinery then they’re probably generating more gas then they can possibly use.

It’s interesting that you mention three of the greatest movies of the millennium and you hate the best one. Fury Road is brilliant and the fact that it’s a giant chase scene but still manages to pack in a moving story with strong themes and compelling characters is why it’s such an astonishing work of genius.

Well, filmmaker here with a penchant for complicated structures, strange settings and lots of dialog, the like:

Fury Road is amazing. It draws you in from the first shot, and never lets you go. You identify with multiple protagonists of the story at multiple times, the story arc works exceptionally well, the three act…

Those two movies are great! ...your take on MM:FF is still terrible.

Your take is horrible in every way.  And pole CATS, man, not vaulters.

“It’s all chase—one long, damn near pointless chase with grunted dialog that amounts to nothing.”

The Doof wagon was the best

I think you were seeing the “wall” she put up for her character. Trust no one, let no one learn your true plans, etc. 

Hell yeah.

I know he was involved in the medicinal field but if that’s the case it definitely makes sense. That’s why Tom Savini is such a legendary makeup and special effects guy, he was a combat photographer in Vietnam and he himself has said it helped with his work.

This film is generally the standard I use when gauging whether I a critic fits my personality towards other films. as movies that tell rather than show is one of my biggest pet peeves in film and this film is the gold standard of letting the viewer figure things out for themselves.
