Essex : 5/22/2015 11:16 am
to see or understand this one? I would doubt it, but just wanted to make sure. Thanks in advance
no

enjoy
nope, not at all  
Greg from LI : 5/22/2015 11:40 am : link
There is little continuity between the Mad Max movies aside from the main character and the post - apocalypse setting.
Thank you very much for responding

!
definitely not  
UConn4523 : 5/22/2015 12:43 pm : link
but if you want to watch one to get a taste, go with Road Warrior. Its not the origin, but its the most relevant to the new film. Its also the best of the 3 by far, in my opinion.
I've asked, but haven't really gotten answers.

Should this be seen in 3D or 2D?

I've actually never seen a 3D movie.
Having seen...

Mad Max and the Road Warrior will give you some appreciation for the backstory that is really just glossed over in this one, but as Greg notes there is not a ton of continuity.

That said, I award you a major violation for not having seen them. The Road Warrior is perhaps the greatest action movie ever made! I find you GUILTY!

2D. Always do 2D UNLESS the movie was filmed in 3D (like Avatar, Hugo, etc.). If it was converted in post-production, then it is never worth the extra money.
i wish they made it in imax only  
UConn4523 : 5/22/2015 1:02 pm : link
and not imax 3D. Unless I just can't find it...
Yes,

Handle checks out...
You should see them all anyway

CiPpy's right on.

Wow, it felt really weird to write that and see it in text.

Child, please. You're always writing that...
As others have said  
LakeGeorgeGiant : 5/22/2015 5:43 pm : link
you don't need to see them.

However, I am perplexed as to why you want to see Fury Road but don't want to see the others. Road Warrior in particular is fantastic and the first movie is no slouch either.
I'll drive that tanka....

its not like there's much of an elaborate storyline anyway
