The Next Mad Max Movie Will Have To Break A Franchise Trend Set By The Road Warrior If It Wants To Succeed

Mad Max must get cheap again after Furiosa.

Although the Mad Max movies were somewhat derailed by Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’s box office underperformance, The Road Warrior might hold the key to the franchise’s future. The Mad Max franchise’s timeline has always been hard to follow, but the most recent installment in the series did nothing to make matters easier. According to Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, the prequel takes place 45 years after the apocalypse.

Posts Of course, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’s box office underperformance can hardly be blamed on this sort of minor canon plothole. Viewers come to Mad Max movies for high-octane action, director George Miller’s uniquely grim vision of the future, and memorably bizarre characters like the Bullet Farmer and Sprog.

&#x2715 Remove Ads Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome cost five times as much as 1980’s The Road Warrior, which was made for a mere $2 million. Astoundingly, this represented a tenfold increase in the budget of the original cult classic, which was made for only $200,000 in 1979.
