MAD MAX FURY ROAD 4K SERIES

ItвЂ™s not uncommon for 4K discs to skip the extras to maximize space for the video files, but commentary tracks shouldnвЂ™t take up much room. IвЂ™m also not sure why the other three films donвЂ™t have any bonus content. I donвЂ™t have any previous home video releases of Mad Max 2, save a digital copy I bought on iTunes a while back, so I donвЂ™t know how those bonus features compare to what was originally offered, although it seems clear that all of them were ported over from previous editions. ThereвЂ™s very little dead air and almost none of the dreaded вЂњletвЂ™s describe what weвЂ™re seeing onscreen right nowвЂќ stuff that plagues lesser commentaries. Miller cites Joseph CampbellвЂ™s book The Hero With a Thousand Faces as a key influence on the script.ДЇinally, the commentary track has Miller and Sempler getting into the nuts and bolts of the making of the film, including technical details like the kinds of camera lenses used and which shots were handheld. Several minutes are spent examining Max as an archetypal character not unlike a samurai, a gunslinger, or even a Nordic hero. Road War features Miller, star Mel Gibson, co-screenwriter Terry Hayes, and others looking back at the making of the film, from the directorвЂ™s initial ideas for it to the finished product.

(The film included here says Mad Max 2 at the beginning.) decided to ditch the Mad Max 2 title and call it The Road Warrior. MaltinвЂ™s introduction gives a good overview of why Warner Bros. Only the second film has any, and they include an introduction by Leonard Maltin, the documentary Road War: The Making of Road Warrior, and a commentary track with director George Miller and cinematographer Dean Semler. The bonus features are scant in this set. But, thankfully, thatвЂ™s not the case for much of the movie. My only quibble is that Mad Max 2 looks like it had DNR applied a bit too heavily in some scenes вЂ“ the characters sometimes have a plastic-like quality to them. These movies tend to have a darker color palette, especially the many underground scenes in Beyond Thunderdome, but they hold up well from beginning to end. I donвЂ™t have the previous 4K disc of that one, so I donвЂ™t know how it compares, but like the other films, it looks beautiful. A comparison of the two discs showed that there wasnвЂ™t much, if any, difference between them.ДЄll four films show a moderate amount of grain, even Fury Road. to a 2024 release.Warner says that all four films were remastered in 4K from scans of the original camera negatives, although itвЂ™s not clear if the Mad Max 4K disc uses the same master as the one Kino Lorber released. That film, however, has recently been pushed back by Warner Bros. With Fury Road marking the most recent appearance of the titular Max Rockatansky, who took over the character from Mel Gibson, director George Miller is expected to return to the wasteland with Furiosa - a prequel to Fury Road starring Anya Taylor-Joy as a younger version of Charlize Theron's character.
