Two Men Enter One Man Leaves

I must be a wimp for being the only person who favors Thunderdome. Although I'd like to give the previous two another screening.

I guess I pick Mad Max 2, if I need to choose.

I agree with Mad Max being a good revenge film.


Beyond Thunderdome is awesome, though, and hits me in many different ways.
It's the most outrageous and certain things really jump out at me.
Also, it has the scene when Max unpacks all those weapons, tons of weapons, that is a theme future movies copied. I could never forget the dome itself after the first viewing, or forget Master Blaster. (and all that sand!)

I see "Mad Max" in the Mad Max series to be analgous with Alien from the Aliens series---or ---dare I say---- the ST:TMP Trek debut.

These kinds of films are highly focused on the cinematography, and film's "mood/tone"---focusing on the world that the movie encompasses both physical and spiritual ----I guess, the same could be said for Empire. And they are all pretty respectable movies---and some are rated higher by the mainstream than others----it's a tricky business labeling and debating films (or any art)---with all we know about "good" art/"bad art", ya never know how you or the world will judge 'em.

I loved the first part. It was very funny and inventive, especially the arena scene.
The second part is just too soft. I've seent the movie many times. These days, I just watch the first part, until he goes into exile into the desert.
