Legends Podcast #690; Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (2024)

Legends Podcast ·

2024/09/04

I am awaited! After a long time away, a bombastic veteran makes a triumphant return to the stage that made him famous. I’m talking, of course, about director George Miller, the driving force behind the Mad Max films since the first one hit the gas in 1979. Earlier this year, the latest installment of the Mad Max saga roared into cinemas… but for the first time, Max Rockatansky was not one of the lead characters. Instead, the film focuses on telling the origin story of Furiosa, played by Charlize

Aug-Heist takes things to the next level with this 2012 thriller about a suicidal man, a stolen diamond, and good old fashioned insurance fraud! With a stacked cast including Sam Worthington, Elizabeth Banks, Anthony Mackie, Jamie Bell, Edward Burns, Kyra Sedgewick, and Ed Harris, the film has all the makings of a genre classic. But it did a bellyflop at the box office and cratered with critics. Was the title a little too “high concept” for audiences, or did the plot twists give viewers vertigo

Aug-Heist rolls on with a return to the mean streets of London! Following Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, director Guy Ritchie goes back to the well of the seedy underworld of British tough guys with this year 2000 release. Several LS2SB actors come back as well, including Jason Statham, Vinnie Jones, Jason Flemyng, Alan Ford, and the film adds some non-Brits, too, with Brad Pitt, Dennis Farina, and Benico del Toro in the mix. Clearly following the "if it ain't broke, bloke, don't fix it,

We're on a brief hiatus this week, so we've plundered the Legends Vault for some appropriate loot to tide you over. Before we score Guy Ritchie's second film, Snatch, we're giving you our review of his first. This week we’re talking about Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, also one of our Legends of ‘99, the movie that launched the acting careers of Jason Statham and Vinnie Jones, began the directing careers of Guy Ritchie and Matthew Vaughn, spawned a short-lived TV series, and, along with The

We’re kicking off Aug-Heist in a spirit of the Paris Olympics with a French Netflix heist comedy. When two expert thieves and best friends look to retire from a life of crime, they must pull off one last job to buy their way out. The film was directed by Mélanie Laurent, with Adèle Exarchopoulos and Manon Bresch co-starring. Released in 2023 on Netflix, this French-language film was based on a popular graphic novel. But do these feisty heroines steal their way into our hearts, or does this film

There’s something strange in the neighborhood - must be a new Ghostbusters movie! The follow-up to 2021’s Ghostbusters: Afterlife, this film sees ghostbusting make its triumphant return to the Big Apple and the iconic firehouse. With Afterlife’s cast returning along with Bill Murray, Dan Ackroyd, Ernie Hudson, and Annie Potts from the originals, the film introduces a new threat in the form of the icy Garraka.

After our Shoresy side-quest, we’re back on track and hopping the next train to Transylvania! Rum Daddy’s birthday pick pic is none other than Mel Brooks and Gene Wilder’s classic 1974 send-up of the movie versions of Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley’s classic novel. Starring Wilder, Marty Feldman, Teri Garr, Madeline Kahn, Cloris Leachman, and Peter Boyle as The Monster, the spoof centers on a modern descendant of the infamous Dr. Victor Frankenstein, a Dr. Frederick Frankensteen, who inherits his

This week we’re hitting the back half of Season 2 with the episodes “Players Only,” “The Man Advantage,” and “Accountability.” The Bulldogs are on their way to a perfect season with only two games remaining, but with distractions all around, will they be able to focus up and become the best team in the league, ever? First Shoresy has to help the Jims find a fourth man for their trivia team, then help Frankie keep his head in the game after being dumped (again), then deal with the debt the team owes

This week we’re talking about the first three episodes of season 2: “Get ‘Em Focused,” “Skill vs. Will,” and “Set the Tone.” The Bulldogs have played a perfect season, but success has led to distractions off the ice. Simply put, the boys are wearing themselves out with the ladies. Shoresy must work even harder to keep the team at the top, but the Jims aren’t themselves and Michaels is acting weird. But then again, goalies are always weird. Things take a turn when the American expansion team, the Soo

In 1977, director George Roy Hill re-teamed with actor Paul Newman - the pair had previously collaborated on Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and The Sting, two of the biggest movies of the past decade - for an oddball sports comedy about a little-known sport: ice hockey. Written by Nancy Dowd and inspired by her brother Ned’s time playing for the minor-league Johnstown Jets of the oft-flooded steeltown Johnstown, Pennsylvania, the film was originally envisioned as a documentary before Hill

Sorry about the Audio- Beef and Rum Daddy had issues :/ Following the release of The Matrix in 1999, Hollywood saw an explosion of martial arts-focused action movies. Riding that wave was Chinese actor Jet Li, who made his first American-made film debut in Lethal Weapon 4 and went on to star in Kiss of the Dragon, Romeo Must Die and this dimension-hopping cop movie. Starring as both the hero and villain - the last two variants who have absorbed the energy from their murdered counterparts - Li faces

Nothing says summer like a road trip movie, so we're setting off for California in this 1986 cult thriller. Things get interesting in West Texas when a young man picks up a mysterious hitchhiker who turns out to be an insane serial killer. Starring Rutger Hauer, C. Thomas Howell, and Jennifer Jason Leigh, this flick has more twists than a mountain road, but it lacked one thing when it premiered: an audience. Yes, it grossed even less than its $7.9 million dollar budget, but yet somehow it earned a

To commemorate the 70th anniversary of the first Godzilla film, Japanese movie studio Toho unleashed a new installment in its historic franchise last year. Set in Japan in the days following World War II, the film serves a prequel of sorts to the 1954 film, introducing a smaller - yet still destructive - version of the kaiju. Led by a dishonored kamikaze pilot, a group of Japanese veterans and ordinary citizens must stand up to Godzilla when the government fails to act. Written and directed by

Believe it or not, we were just starting to hear rumblings of a long-promised Furiosa prequel in development four years ago. But does this mayhem-and-motor oil pyro-technical knock-out still have enough guzzoline in the tank to go the distance? And what was our news segment like in Spring 2020? (Probably not great!) Check

Marcel the Shell with Shoes On burst onto the internet stage in 2010 with a three minute YouTube video. In three short videos, the world fell in love with the tiny, soft-spoken, introspective mollusc as he showed us his everyday life in a human-sized home. Directed by Dean Fleischer Camp and voiced by actress Jenny Slate, Marcel’s adventures jumped to the big screen in 2021 with a feature length film. While audiences didn't exactly “shell”out the big bucks to see it, the movie was critically adored,

Starring Rachel Sennot and Ayo Edebiri as two lesbians who start a “self-defense” club to get girls, this 2023 film explores the life of the “untalented gays” at Rockbridge Falls High School as they deal with football players, crushes, and the murderous Huntington Golden Ferrets.

Thirty years ago, Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich launched a franchise with this blockbuster movie starring Kurt Russell and James Spader - though maybe not in the way they expected. When an Egyptologist decodes the symbols on an ancient artifact, the U.S. military opens a portal through the stars leading to another galaxy. On the distant world, they must lead a rebellion against the sun god Ra to find a way back home. This sci-fi epic from the Independence Day duo was mostly panned when it came
