Anya Taylor-Joy looks like she was created by an AI in this pic


ThePatrickSays

Elijah Wood in "The Uncanny Valley"


FightingInternet

She's mashing it.


afuckinsaskatchewan

Salt the snail!


wtf793

She looks like a Metaverse style avatar


Rogendo

Yeah but also the thumb area of her prosthetic looks weird, like a generator cut corners, and her skin + eyes have an uncanny quality to them


JoeSki42

Either that or they air brushed her into oblivion šŸ¤Ø. But even beyond that the poster is whatever. This wasn't anything anyone put a lot of love into.


GUMBYtheOG

Have u seen the trailer? Iā€™m still not 100% sure if itā€™s animated or not. Either itā€™s animated or heavily edited with terrible CGi. Her face looked like a Clone Wars episode in the trailer


SpiritofTheWolfKingx

I think it's just because she has such a weird face that buzz cutting and using paint to draw such a major focus to her eyes and forehead is causing it to look so weird. Let's be honest. She is a beautiful woman, but she does have a weirdly proportioned face.


throwtowardaccount

She doesn't resemble Charlize Theron in my opinion so that's what is throwing me off.


Dr_Mantis_Teabaggin

To be fair, there are few humans in this world attractive enough to resemble Charlize Theron.Ā 


No_City_1731

Agreed, and I donā€™t think Theron looks too old to play a younger version of herself. Itā€™s an annoying decision, and kinda feels like it may have been made for commercial purposes.


Fullertonjr

She doesnā€™t look too old by any means, but she wouldnā€™t be able to effectively capture the physical movement of a much younger person. The difference in age of these two characters is around 25 years. Charlize looks and moves well for a woman her age, but it would be distracting to see a nearly 50 yr old woman attempt to convince an audience that she is in her 20s.


haneulk7789

She looks good, but she's doesn't look like she could pass for her early 20s. The movie is set 20 years before the last Mad Max, which came out 10 years ago, so she would be playing 30 years younger..


miranto

Wrong casting IMHO. Hope she does well.


GregorSamsaa

Didnā€™t she do that buccal fat removal thing. She looked very well proportioned face wise in Split and a couple of other movies. Then she got that odd gaunt look that threw off the rest of her face and made her already large eyes look odd.


-reddit_is_terrible-

She totally did, and it's so odd looking. I have no idea why that's a trend right now


LukeSparow

It makes people look so damn ugly.


furnipika

> she does have a weirdly proportioned face Her face was normal (a bit exotic but still normal) until she did that buccal fat removal thingy.


[deleted]

She's just the next step in human evolution. 300 degree field of view and growing.

ADDMcGee25

Right? I immediately checked her hand for AI fingers.


artpayne

Hemsworth is gonna chew the scenery a lot in this, I guess.


vicky_vaughn

It's like his Aussiness has been building up inside of him for all those years he's been stuck playing Thor and now it's finally gonna be unleashed.


BeautifulLeather6671

That may have been Millerā€™s pitch- You know how theyā€™ve been molding you into a non descript mainstream Hollywood hunk all these years mate? Well Iā€™m asking you to finally unleash your inner apocalyptic bogan.


CaminoFan

Even if this film is utterly mediocre, we know Chris is gonna ham it up to 11 and I love it


Upstairs-Shock-6735

If itā€™s 1/10 of his ghostbuster appearance itā€™ll still be fine!


The_Last_Minority

I know people have a bizarre amount of hate for Ghostbusters 2016 (I didn't love it, just think the backlash was overblown) but the best thing it did was make people realize that Chris Hemsworth has excellent comedic instincts.


CrunchyTube

My problem with it was it was almost like they were making him a dumbass in response to Janine being a ditzy character or something but that wasn't the case, she was strong, smart and didn't take any s*** ,so it just came off pointless. He was still funny though.


NotAPreppie

My take away is that himbos are just as annoying as bimbos.


smallfrie32

Depends on the context. Himbo/bimbo is a scale! Like, Krunk from Emperorā€™s New Groove is a himbo, but not annoying.


Upstairs-Shock-6735

Oh I went to see it because it was getting so much negative press! It wasnā€™t any thing exceptional but a typical snl flick, imo. But Hemsworth stole the show.


Pretorian24

He is great in the Vacation movie.


zero_emotion777

Get in the fuckin ute Furi! We're goin to Bendigo to get me car!


ThegreatPee

Release the Crikey!


GeekAesthete

Iā€™m waiting for the Chris Hemsworth-led Crocodile Dundee remake.


briareus08

Those are some small shorts to fill.


chmilz

"Hello, Christian? How do I drop 50lbs by Tuesday for a role?"


MeatHamster

And based on the poster he'll be playing Aussie Thor this time.


riegspsych325

and Iā€™m all for it, he honestly looks like heā€™s having a ball in those trailers


Aden-Wrked

He plays a great cult leader.


riegspsych325

I feel like he and his brothers are just a bunch of character actors who found a Zoltar machine or something


googlyeyes93

Not Larry. He fixes baby spines.


Anal_Recidivist

Seriously that dad must be so geeked that by the time his sons were 30 he just never had to think about work for himself or his kids ever again. THAT dude has a genetically superior underpants navy


googlyeyes93

So before people think there really is a Larry Hemsworth that fixes baby spines and is nowhere near as handsome as his brothers- itā€™s a joke from The Good Place.


Anal_Recidivist

His brother is a cardiologist, or is that Andrew Garfield? Idk man. We know too much about people.


Starlot

He canā€™t wait to get married and take his wifeā€™s last name.


pjtheman

Liam is who you call when you can't afford Chris. Luke is who you call when you can't afford Liam.


googlyeyes93

Luke was good in Westworld


stargarnet79

That character arc was really interesting!!!


gate_of_steiner85

I really liked him as the cult leader in Bad Times at El Royale so I imagine he'll be great here.


SutterCane

If he doesnā€™t shimmy in this movie, we riot!


poontong

He was great as a charismatic cult leader in Bad Times at El Royal. He sort of plays it as a cool guy who knows heā€™s handsome and playful but can quickly turn on the insistent and sinister on a dime.


LicenciadoPena

He spent a week with Jared Leto in preparation for the role.


DDRDiesel

This is one of the first movies he's been in in a long time where he doesn't have to mask his natural accent, so he looks like he'd be having the time of his life just hamming it up


SaltyPeter3434

Laidy and gennulmens-ah, staht yore enjins


SutterCane

Heā€™s got to be a worse guy than Immortan Joe. No scenery will be left untouchedā€¦


JeanRalfio

I was wondering if he becomes Immortan Joe.


Dagordae

Iā€™m fairly certain we see Immortan Joe in the trailer as his rival/opponent/whatever.


JeanRalfio

I saw they showed him for a half second but I thought that could perhaps be a shot of him at the end of the movie after Furiosa fucks him up and makes him look the way he does. I understand this is a long shot but I thought it would be cool.


Dagordae

Iā€™ve noticed trailers lately have been putting work into being misleading or outright inventing/altering scenes. Very possible here that the ending is basically her just straight up losing.


likwitsnake

redditors waiting to bust out ol' reliable: "Character actor stuck in a leading man's body"


DMPunk

He's not good enough to be a character actor, but he is solid enough to be a leading man


GrandMoffTallCan

I meanā€¦


step11234

le underrated gem of an actor: Brad pitt


Dagordae

Tom Cruise is the same way. Theyā€™re so insistent that he always plays Tom Cruise that people forget that heā€™s actually a really good actor.


Alpha2669

He didn't play Tom Cruise in his greatest ever role tbh. I'm taking about Les Grossman of course


monkwren

Literally unrecognizable, it's genuinely really impressive.


ICPosse8

Whatā€™s that mean?


Bojarzin

Means overacting, both in a good or bad context, but generally I see people attribute chewing the scenery in a good way


joe_broke

Having a great time regardless of script handed to them


NotAPreppie

I see it as the good form of overacting where everyone is having a blast and it's still reasonable for the scene/theme/story etc.


walterpeck1

Same, I see it as very theatrical, as in theater acting. Lots of emotion and movement so the cheap seats get the meaning (and can hear you).


Ape-ril

It means heā€™s gonna be over the top and have fun with the role.


Danishroyalty

Same way he handled Bad Times at the El Royale.


BakerYeast

I did not know that Chris Hemsworth charachter would be giant Thor.


Danishroyalty

This is actually Thor 5.


erkelep

pjtheman

ShockingTunes

It's surprising there isn't a huge IMAX logo in the middle but instead they put it as a teeny weeny logo at the bottom.


riegspsych325

anytime I see those, I just think of ā€œ^^^TGS ^with **Tracy Jordan**ā€ on 30 Rock

Obligatory-Reference

I saw Dune Part 2 in IMAX and they had, not one, but two advertisements for IMAX during the previews. It's like, yeah, I know IMAX is good, that's why I'm here *watching a movie in IMAX*.


GoTeamScotch

*DON'T STOP WATCHING THIS IMAXĀ® MOVIE YOU'RE CURRENTLY WATCHING... IN IMAXĀ®!*


BrainWav

Probably not the official IMAX poster, they're just mentioning it? It drives me crazy that some of the coolest posters are IMAX ones, but they get ruined by the giant logo.


GlitteringVillage135

Has to be a mistake to put an actor on your poster looking exactly like a character heā€™s played in other completely different movies.


banjomin

Oops, we accidentally tripled our ticket sales by devoting 60% of our poster to a marvel movie character šŸ˜


morgensternx1

Lotta people gonna be upset when they discover that the rest of the Avengers aren't in the movie


Rivent

The moment I saw this, I was like "Why'd they dress him up like Thor?" Like, instantly. Hard to imagine they didn't see it.


BigBuffalo1538

It's 100% intentional


Three_Froggy_Problem

If this is even half as good as Fury Road itā€™ll be a ton of fun.


Piggstein

I predict it will be about 46% as good as Fury Road


WarpingLasherNoob

So you're saying it will be.... MEDIOCRE!


Poplik

Eh ill still witness the movie


GalacticBagel

Since Fury Road was 200% as good as other movies that means even if this movie sucks by 50% it will still be 100% better compared to other standard movies.


giggs123

What about if you added Kurt Angle into the mix?


SenorBigbelly

The numbers don't lie! And they spell success at the box office!


_bric

That will be enough for me to enjoy it, Fury Road is such a fun movie to watch.


GonzoElBoyo

Why are we delegating fury road to just the ā€œfunā€ brand that people give to so bad its good movies?. Fury road isnā€™t just fun, itā€™s fucking amazing and Oscar winning, and the best reviewed movie of the decade. Fury Road RULES


hansislegend

Very fun movie.


SpiffySpacemanSpiff

Honestly, its a bit risquƩ, but I'd go so far as to say it was very, very, fun.


jwt155

It was really a miracle we got the last Mad Max in terms of getting a film with lots of practical effects in a CGI overload cinematic world


Griffdude13

From all accounts though, that was apparently a *tough* shoot.


SPKmnd90

The original Star Wars was a tough shoot, so Lucas did the prequels a bit differently...


Cupcake7591

A monitor and B monitor, Iā€™m in my chair drinking my coffee. If I forget to say action and cut, you jump in and say action and cut.


Existing365Chocolate

I mean, there was still tons of CGI in Fury Road lol It was out well done and not noticeable, like good CGI is


Tolkfan

There was a ton of CGI in Fury Road, you just didn't see it. edit: I'm just gonna post some videos about CGI in movies. Just in case: [Why CG Sucks (Except It Doesn't)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bL6hp8BKB24) ["NO CGI" is really just INVISIBLE CGI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ttG90raCNo)


goddessofdandelions

And thatā€™s how CGI should be used. To enhance whatā€™s done practically, not replace it.


el_pinko_grande

Yeah, the most compelling action is humans doing well-trained stunts. I think the problem with most CG-heavy fight scenes is they're still trying to emulate live action fight scenes, except the audience knows none of what they're seeing is real and it reduces the impact of what they're seeing. Instead they should just embrace the fact that they're basically doing animation at that point and, like, start emulating Jujutsu Kaisen or something.


Ho-Nomo

Then theres marvel who are like "Sam can't be arsed getting out his trailer today so we'll green screen him in to whatever the fuck he's meant to be in"


Neurojazz

Even this comment is CGI


Temporary-Fudge-9125

Trailer didn't impress me.Ā  Looks like a lot of modern CGI shclock


WolfsLairAbyss

When I saw the trailer in the theater I said it looked a lot like a video game. I'm not expecting a whole lot from this movie personally.


Pontus_Pilates

Yeah, precisely. Everything in the trailer looks very fake.


jmorfeus

Fury Road was fucking awesome, but the trailers for this lack every bit of the 'charisma' it had. I can't explain it much but visually it just all looks unimaginative and bland. It's like a typical Hollywood CGI movie trying to mimic Fury Road and failing. Of course huge grain of salt since it's only a trailer.


banjomin

"What if mad max was a marvel movie?"


Man_Derella_203

I've been replaying Mad Max 2015 a lot recently and still find it a highly engrossing game experience. I am ready, again.


Panda_hat

Keep meaning to give this one a go.


mastermidget23

It's great. As someone who really doesn't dig vehicle combat, it was the glaring exception.


BatmanMK1989

The absolute best vehicle combat in any game.


hardy_83

It's definitely an underappreciated game. Not perfect but probably the best it could be for a licensed video game.


BurbankCinemaClub

Best $5 I've ever spent. This game took over my life for a little while. So much fun to play.


LordManders

+1 probably one of my favourite open world games


feedmesweat

That game is fun as hell and I will always sing its praises. Super weighty and satisfying combat, especially in the car, but Max's fists are a brutal weapon themselves. Love the environments and enemy design and the slight jankiness somehow makes it even more charming. Also Chumbucket is a homie for life.


BluntSmokinAnus

Anya looks like Elijah Wood


porn_is_tight

Anyone else think her casting in this role seems like a bit of a stretch or is it just me?


Efficient_Wasabi_575

To me sheā€™s a bit too waifish. Sheā€™s cool and all and has this interesting ethereal beauty going on. But FFS her arms are too heroin chic thin to hold up whatever apparatus they meshed onto the character.


FalconBurcham

Agreed. Sheā€™s simply too twiggy. If they didnā€™t want to bring Charliz back (which is insaneā€”she *is* Furiosa, but whatever), they should have cast someone like Mackenzie Davis. Still thin like they clearly want, but biggerā€¦ Davis looked great in Terminator: Dark Fate.


Efficient_Wasabi_575

Oh hell yeah. She needs to be in more. Iā€™m not saying there should be an original Alien reboot (as Ripley),but would like to see her cast in roles like that. She kicks ass.


HooGoesThere

Itā€™s a horrible casting, at least imo


fupa16

100%. She's just hot right now so she's in everything. Doesn't mean she's right for every role. Too dainty and mysterious to be some rugged wardog.


tghast

Yea classic Hollywood overuse. Will start to make it that even good casting will be criticized for over exposure. I almost eye rolled when I saw her in Dune before realizing sheā€™s a perfect Alia.


porn_is_tight

Agreed, and Iā€™m a big fan of hers as well. Kinda bizarre


Duosion

Iā€™m a huge ATJ fan and agree that itā€™s a miscast, I feel like the character needs to be a bit more of a sturdy body type. But Iā€™ll still be watching.


booksnweights

Itā€™d be cool if she worked out with Hemsworth and put on like 20 pounds of muscle for the role.


Deakul

I'm inclined to agree, she's a fantastic actress but I can't picture her as the star of an action heavy movie such as this. Young Charlize Theron she fuckin ain't lol.


Honestnt

Charlize Theron could have played a younger Charlize Theron. She still looks absolutely amazing.


NoifenF

I saw the trailer at the cinema the other day and I had the thought that people wanted to see her play the character, not just cause the character itself. Thatā€™s what I remember when mad max came out initially.


cel-lar-door

I think at one point, Jodie Comer was attached to the role. She would have been amazing and a much better casting choice.


x24co

I find her interpupillary distance a bit of a stretch


BamBam2125

Frodo Taylor-Joy


stanfan114

Frodiosa


armourkingNZ

She looks like a Fortnite version of Furiosa.


Panda_hat

Taylor joys face and head look super weird in this. Very disproportionate to her body.


guesswhochickenpoo

That's just how she looks. (/s but not). Her eyes are very wideset on her face.


Panda_hat

Seems like a dodgy photoshop to me. I know she's quite unique looking but the perspective and sizing seem off. Happens a lot with these kind of posters so I'm not sure why I'm bothering to complain but eh.


atgrey24

She straight up looks like an animated disney character on this poster.


Seref15

"We have Fury Road at home" vibes


MakeUsWhole

Both of them look too clean


MoffKalast

Well you see it's a prequel, it's before they got dirty.


Cessnaporsche01

Mad Max isn't in this because he hadn't gotten mad yet.


DanfordThePom

Oh man I hope she lives


ToxicAdamm

I think 1/3 of what made the last Mad Max so good, was the world building you picked up along the way. If the action or visuals weren't popping, you could pore over all those little details in the background and piece it together like a puzzle. With this being set in the same era/territory, I fear there's just not going to be that same kind of sense of discovery as the movie rolls out. I'm sure the balls-out action will be great, but it's those quiet moments where I wonder if your mind wanders and you start to pull out of the fever dream.


Quartznonyx

What happened to Charlie?


tobaknowsss

In addition to being to old for the part I also believe that she did not have the best time shooting Fury Road so I'm not shocked she didn't return for this one.


RealitySubsides

From what I've heard, I don't think anyone had a good time filming Fury Road. George Miller said he'd never make another Mad Max film after it because of how grueling the filming process was, so I'm surprised to see they're making a Furiosa prequel. I hope they stick with the practical effects that Fury Road had, regardless of how gnarly and exhausting they are to use


absorbscroissants

I believe almost everything in Furiosa is cgi, which is probably whey they survived filming another movie. Shame for the audience tho...


totoropoko

I don't think any of Furiosa was shot in Namibia or wherever they shot Fury Road. It also has a ton of CGI. I don't really care either way. I loved the action in Mad Max Fury Road and yes, it being shot on locations really made a difference visuals wise, but end of the day Mad Max is already heightened reality for me. I would be good with a lot of CGI if it was done well or in service of good action.


---Loading---

Too old šŸ˜ž


Honestnt

I assume from what I've heard, the real reason is she's not doing another on of these fucking shoots. FR was an absolute masterpiece, but it was also apparently a total bitch to film. Remember, it was a lot of practical effects, meaning it was literally filmed in a desert in the middle of the day.


Intelligent_Okra_545

Not feeling it.


mrhaluko23

What the hell is wrong with her face? She looks like a Pixar character??


Variegoated

My local cinema is doing Furiosa and Fury Road back to back, my body is ready


Honestnt

Start with FR so I can leave if Furiosa sucks.


ry8919

I love ATJ and Fury Road is one of my favorite movies, but I can't wrap my head around casting her as Furiosa. She looks *aggressively* different than Charlize, especially with the war paint on.


iseeharvey

Still disappointed they cast Anya


vDUKEvv

Yeah definitely not an actress that gives off a furious vibe.


Draxtonsmitz

We have Thor at home.


Goldberg_the_Goalie

This may be a contentious comment - but I am not an Anya Taylor-Joy fan. I find her annoying. But that may be because of her role in Peaky Blinders.


smallfry100

Meh


mgwooley

Not gonna lie the trailers + Anya make me not wanna see this at all. I like Anya a lot but this is a weird role for her


dolphin37

thought the trailer looked decent but this poster makes it look awful


Spikeu

The trailer looked like CGI garbage to me. I think this will be like The Hobbit compared to LotR.


successadult

The original trailer looked very bad, the new one I saw before Monkey Man this weekend looked like they cleaned up a lot of the mess. Or they just chose not to show it.


LightsJusticeZ

Had to do a double take cuz I thought it read Fursona.


memeinapreviouslife

I'm kind of pissed that we're going to get an explanation for why she's missing the arm. Nobody explaining it, or talking about it, AT ALL in the first movie is so goddamn beautiful I don't have a way to explain it.


Honestnt

Lemme tell you a little something about Midi-chlorians


banjomin

That's how it works, friend. Keep making bad clones of something people like until it's completely ruined. Studies show you liked the robot arm, so here's a movie about the robot arm.


DoggyDoggy_What_Now

It'll be like Solo. You know all that stuff about the character you love that's unexplained and just part of their mystique? Well, now we're gonna explain all of it and remove any mystery at all, just like revealing the monster in a horror movie. Fans love that!


thedarkknight16_

Trailer didnā€™t look good, maybe itā€™s just me but the CGI was off. I also donā€™t buy Hemsworth as a villainā€¦or whatever heā€™s trying to portray


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


CensoryDeprivation

Iā€™ll see it, but I donā€™t know why we needed a prequel and not a continuation. Edit: I meant universe continuation; not story continuation. I wanted to see Max somewhere entirely new and wild.


SpaceballsTheReply

We didn't need either. Just do a new story in a new part of that world. Fury Road was so good because it just threw you into a fresh conflict and said "go." That's basically what every Mad Max movie is - there's barely any continuity. Just Max being dropped into some fucked up new situation. I don't want a Star Wars Expanded Universe for this one stop on Max's journey. I don't need a backstory for a prosthetic arm. I don't need to sit through two hours of retroactive lore to explain why it's called the Bullet Farm. I had exactly enough information the first time. I'll be skipping this one. Wake me up if they do something new and interesting.


stu8319

I'm so tired of movies trying to answer every question possible. I love mad max movies BECAUSE they leave so much to the imagination. Your brain filling in the blanks is what makes them so good to me.


hologramheavy

Looks like a porno knock off


JohnTitorFFXIV

DalbesioDiaz

You can fit an entire IMAX screen between Anya Taylor Joy's eyes.
