Hope this isnt the nail in the coffin of Mad Max.

Maybe it's a sign that a Mad Max movie should have Mad Max in it.

Or that going the theater sucks ass. Why go when I have a 70 Oled and almos sound system. Dealing with the jack asses that talk, text, or chew loudly isn't worth the hassle.

Dude, I only have a 36" LED and budget sound bar and I still wouldn't go to the cinema. It's cheaper to rent the movie online, I can ensure my popcorn is perfectly buttered and not burnt (truly a game changer), and I don't have to shush 2.5 teenagers every matinee night.

Theaters are dead, man.

The annoying children are what stopped me from going to the movies - lights go out and suddenly it's just a just a sea of jackasses with their phones out or talking to the movie. Not worth the annoyance, especially with how much they charge for everything these days.

32" here and same.

In addition, theatres advertise a starting time of X:00, but the movie can sometimes start as late as X:30 after 30 fucking minutes of ads and trailers. That was my previous and last experience in a theatre.

I have a nice TV but it still doesn't compare to going to the movies, especially now that they have beer on tap and a nasty hotdog what more do you need

70 Oled

A TV needs to have more than 70 LEDs to look acceptable to me.

almos sound system

And it had to actually have sound, not almost have sound.

[-] Pistcow@lemm.ee 1 points 5 months ago

Atmos, new phone spellchecker is a dumb dumb.

[-] kratoz29@lemm.ee 2 points 5 months ago

I would like to live that dream too, for now I do fine with my 50 inch TV with light balls (I don't even know how they are called, most likely dead leds), no sound bar, but hey, at least I have a Nvidia Shield TV 2019 Pro, which it is too damn slow for my setup on Kodi most of the times, but it behaves pretty well for everything else.

[-] state_electrician@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 5 months ago

Mad Max had three movies already. I don't think he needs more. One thing I enjoyed about Fury Road was that he was basically a supporting character for Furiosa.

[-] KISSmyOSFeddit@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

This was the fifth Mad Max movie, actually.

[-] nokturne213@sopuli.xyz 4 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Maybe it did have Mad Max in it.

[-] nogooduser@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

The Dogman / Mad Max was in the credits but I don’t remember him in the film.

He's the guy who's overlooking her from a cliff when she faints in the desert after losing her arm
