NFT: Mad Max: Fury Road fan theory

Vin R : 5/21/2015 1:59 pm
Is Tom Hardy the real "Mad Max"?
link - ( New Window )
Actually a pretty good theory  
montanagiant : 5/21/2015 2:03 pm : link
Especially given the Music Box and the nightmares of the little girl
That's a great...  
Chris in Philly : 5/21/2015 2:18 pm : link
and fun theory...
it could be what Miller has come up with now  
Greg from LI : 5/21/2015 2:22 pm : link
But he runs up against his own backstory because, as the guy admits, the Feral Kid never saw Max again. So how could the torch have been passed from Max to him?

Bullshit

And that the kid goes on to become the leader of the villagers, who go on to re-establish civilization.

Where are the rest? He is alone in the beginning

Or maybe that civilization hasn't been re-established yet. Maybe these Mad Max movies shows how that happens. It could easily be the story of how the feral kid becomes that leader. To be completely honest I thought he was the kid as soon as they showed the music box. Too random an object to just randomly pop up in a post-apocalyptic dystopian scorched Earth.

All the Feral Kid says at the end of Mad Max 2 is that he "in turn became the leader of our group". Don't recall anything about reestablishing civilization
Some people Disagree

Note that Max has the same leg brace. At the end of Mad Max he is shot in the leg and constructs that leg brace to help himself walk; he wears it in every film after. Including this one. It's part of the iconic look of Mad Max, as much as the V8 Interceptor and the leather jacket.

Why The Latest MAD MAX Fan Theory Is A Crock Of Shit - ( New Window )
Devin is such a douche

It's a fan theory, it's fun to speculate. He constantly attacks other people's opinions or thoughts if he doesn't agree with it.

I've never read any of his stuff but he sure is an angry prick. I like his interpretation, stated with great disdain, that fan theories are attempts to "outsmart the movies" while his entire piece is an attempt to prove he's smarter than the average fan. That's one smarmy asshole completely devoid of any kind of self awareness.

Yeah.. but you're awesome!
My opinion,

Not feral kid - flashback of little girl is pre apocolypse. Doesn't she refer to him as daddy, she is clean, neat and appears to be well fed.
i don't think its the feral kid either  
UConn4523 : 5/22/2015 9:24 am : link
but its a fun theory regardless. Such an awesome movie. I'd see it again if I had more time.

But Max had a son.
Max's son was killed by Toecutter in the first movie

Oddly enough the actor who played Toecutter is the same who plays Immortan Joe in the new movie
