This was the final week of classes for “On the Frame”, and it was probably the best week because we got to watch

I love this film, its my favourite film to come out in years, and will likely hold a spot on my personal list of films I will rewatch endlessly for a VERY long time. I adore everyting about this movie, and after seeing it more times than I’d like to admit (six?, seven maybe) the sound of the engine starting up as the Warner Brothers logo appears gets me pumped everytime.

The rest of this blog post will be me typographly shouting things I loved about the movie.

THE ACTION, ALL OF IT. ITS ALL SO GOOD!!!!!! The Buzzard’s attacking the war rig, the the cayon chase, the Pole Cats. I LOVE IT ALL.

THE CHARACTER AND WORLD DESIGN, AAAAARG ITS BEUTIFUL. Immortan Joe’s cancer’y, torso, the lumps and bumps that are all over the War Boys, the People Eater driving a bastardised limo to fit with his Business-man attire and penny-counting attitude, the little notch on the War Rig’s steering wheel for Furiosa’s prosthetic hand to grip on, AND THE COMA DOOF WARRIOR, everything about him.

THE LORE AND ALL THAT IT IMPLIES! “half-life War Boys” are all sick from radiation, trained and conditioned to die gloriously in battle because otherwise they would die from cancererous lumps anyway. “Shiny and Chrome” they worship vechilles, and the best vechiles are shiny and chrome, so they huff Chrome Paint before dying to prepare them selves for Valhalla, also “Chroming” is an actual thing where people huff paint to get high, which would make it easier to suicide bomb for the glory of the Immortan. “SING BROTHER KOCH” when the Bullet Farmer gets blinded and goes (even morso) insane he yells for his brothers to SIIIIIIIIING, including a ‘brother Koch” which is a reference to Heckler and Koch a company that made the guns he was using at the time, and would have had the name written on the side.

And litteraly everything else about this movie, I LOVE IT SO MUCH.

Then on thursday we briefly talked about the movie, then went to the pub, which was a fantastic end to a fantastic semester of classes.

Thanks Dan.
