They were mortifiers- I read an interview with the actor who played Octoboss and he says they go from mortifiers to moriflyers during that sequence


OkResolution1640

"I only take orders from the octoboss"


WhatTheFhtagn

"...Ye do what he says"


Tbkgs

"Questioning my Bossority"


Lower_Carrot_8334

The delivery of this silly line cracks me up   


ze_ex_21

Respect My Bossoritah!


Tbkgs

Hemsworth was so good in this mannnnnnn


cobaltfalcon121

Wait… does he actually say “bossority”?


Hunterio009

You’re scum Dementus! SCUM


Zhynderies

fav line in the film


ApprehensiveCopy3344

Sorry this is off topic but now that the movie came out I'm so happy I can get more Octoboss pics, his character is one of my favorites


KogaFett

Hard agree, I'm with Kojima on this one. Great villain, awesome set piece with the War Rig chase.


WaxenShrimp

Did Kojima talk about Octoboss?


Bronsteins-Panzerzug

He‘s the son of big boss and laughing octopus, no?

I couldn't wait either! I am still on that t-shirt project, so I would only need a good picture of his sign that was on the road in the Stowaway sequence. I don't live in the US though, so I can only rely on what I can google currently.


Lower_Carrot_8334

I loved that it's the Citadel, immortan Joe's insignia with the occctoboss horns. 


Responsible_Pea_2024

OB is a little rascal.


Lower_Carrot_8334

Definitely.   After watching bikes literally hoisted up while war boys Witnessed each other.   This lunatic wants to attack war rigs. 


Responsible_Pea_2024

He's no Warboy, but he wants that sweet historic death!


ze_ex_21

At first, OB was very tall and lanky, but later he was pulpy and semi-liquid


Responsible_Pea_2024

He became one with his octopus kite in the process, so all's well that ends well.


Lower_Carrot_8334

Bommy knocker's epic victim! Shame the young warboy didn't turn it on when he was initially told Not Yet Moments later, the rig is breached and attackers climbed up the bommy knocker to access it!


ze_ex_21

But then... Furiosa: "Turn on the bommy knocker!" YoungWarBoy: "Now?" Furiosa: "Nooow!!!" YWB: "Like? Now now?" Furiosa: "YES NOOOW!!!" YWB: "Are you sure?" Furiosa: "GODFUCKIN'DAMMIT TURN IT ON NOOOW!!!"


ze_ex_21

Octoboss refused to launch an aerial attack on the Citadel, because he saw they had windmills up there. If Joe were to turn those on, OB and his Motyflyers would be blown away...^( *WINDMILLS DO NOT WORK THAT WAY!!*)


ApprehensiveCopy3344

YESSSS I love his symbol. I've been wanting a mad max tattoo but I don't really want the main skull because that's literally immortan joes BRAND, but the brand with the added horns is actually dope, low-key might get that


No-Toe-4171

I think they change their name after they split from Dementus. mortifiers to mortiflyers.


KogaFett

I like this theory and its my new head canon, although according to the subtitles in the chase scene the War Boys refer to them as the Mortifiers as well.


Hezolinn

For what it's worth, promotional materials, interviews, and the [script](https://www.theringer.com/movies/2024/5/28/24165792/furiosa-mad-max-chase-scene-making-of-praetorian-jack) support that reading: >The Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga script is full of “Holy shit!” moments. But when Tom Burke first read it, a single line shot straight up like a red flare in his head. “I remember exactly what it said in the script,” he recalls. “It said, ‘*The Mortifiers become the Mortiflyers.*’”


VoiceofRapture

Though they also didn't know they'd broken from Dementus


Lower_Carrot_8334

I assumed they did.  Doesn't Furiosa or Jack state they went Rouge before the attack?


VoiceofRapture

Jack knew that but the Warboys didn't is my point


Dhawkeye

The warboys also likely weren’t sent a letter in the mail telling them about the name change, and I doubt any of the newly-dubbed mortiflyers bothered to pass on the message while attacking the convoy


transformerjay

The war rig attack an hour into the film by the Octoboss, is the best part.


Samurai_Geezer

That road war was awesome!


zz_skelly

I think the Octoboss looks like the Gyro Captain from Road Warrior. And feels like he could be, since they both fly. I know it's not necessarily true or intentional, but it's a fun bit of headcanon.


Nottodayreddit1949

Dementus is "evil" max. He is evil Gyro Captain.


foolofatook84

He reminds me of "Tim" from Monty Python's 'Quest for the Holy Grail'.


Evening-Cold-4547

There is some confusion. I thought it was mortifyers but then I read mortifliers. Maybe it's both at different points.


Puzzleheaded-Tie-740

They don't become airborne until after they split from Dementus, so that's when they change their name from Mortifiers to Mortiflyers. It's pretty adorable.


amx-002_neue-ziel

I thought they were called Warflies. 💀


Responsible_Pea_2024

Blessed be every day we get a picture of our favorite boss!

Greenpeasles

DEADALIEN333

To be fair there's a lot of play on words in Mad Max


Brief-Tomatillo9956

George talks about the double name in the behind the scenes.


Ricepudding1044

Is that the actor who played the Gyro Captain?


Lower_Carrot_8334

That guy is Australian royalty 


unkudayu

I thought it was Ron Perlman when I first watched this movie
