A Glimpse Into Our Future?

Mad Max: Fury Road is my favorite movie of all time. I just hope I won't have to live in a post-apocalyptic hellscape now that the Marmalade Mussolini is back in office.

Witness me, brothers…

You will ride eternal, shiny and chrome.

Immortan Joe: I am your redeemer! It is by my hand you will rise from the ashes of this world!


Nux: It's over. You can't defy him!

[Furiosa spits at Nux, who spits back at Furiosa]

The Dag: Just watch us, mate!

Nux: He is the one who grabs the sun!

Toast: Look how slick he's fooled you, War Boy.

Capable: He's a lying old man.

Nux: By his hand, we'll be lifted up!

The Splendid Angharad: That's why we have his logo seared on our back! "Breeding stock"! "Battle fodder"!

Nux: No, I am awaited!

Capable: You're an old man's battle fodder, killing everyone and everything!

Nux: We're not to blame!

The Splendid Angharad: Then who killed the world?

[throws Nux off the War Rig]


Capable: Cheedo! We are not things!

Cheedo the Fragile: [Furiosa shoots the bikers riding towards them] NO!

The Dag: Cheedo, we are not things!

Capable: We are not things.

Cheedo the Fragile: I don't want to hear that again!

Capable: [referring to Angharad] They were her words!

Cheedo the Fragile: [angrily] And now she's DEAD!

The Dag: Wring your hands, tear your hair. But you're not going back. You're not going back to him!

Cheedo the Fragile: [crying] ANGHARAD!


The Dag: Angharad, is that just the wind or is it some furious vexation?
