Don't get me started on JJ; I still haven't been able to get through any of his Star Trek films. The same person who said the original Star Wars is slow and boring also said that he cannot watch any movie that was made before the year 2000, because filmmaking styles have changed too much and he finds all of the older films boring. Personally, I have trouble watching anything that was made after 2000.

Hey, at least this era gave us the improbably-awesome Mad Max: Fury Road.

In any sane universe that would've made every other action filmmaker go "oh, that's how you write and film engaging modern-feeling action that's meaningful to the film itself and its characters and, therefore, to the audience. If it's possible to keep that up for practically an entire film—and, apparently, it is—I can and must do it in my action scenes".

We don't live in a sane universe, unfortunately. But at least we have MM:FR.

Fury Road felt like you unknowingly did a large amount of very potent crack cocaine.

I needed several minutes to cool down after that movie ended.
