Is the black & white version worth it?

If you like movies made by the director who thinks its the year 1915.

Now, that was entirely unnecessary. B & W films were commonly made until the 1970s and are still occasionally made today.

To answer the poster you were rude to: Yes, the Black & Chrome Edition is worth it.

Is that one of those professions that's real if you repeat that it's real hundreds of times?

If only "Mad Max: Fury Road" hadn't been directed by somebody who is so mired in the past, it could've been a really cutting edge, modern movie...

Sky_Captain · 02-16-2017, 05:13 PM

The irony of someone called Agent Bond, saying that something is stuck in the past.

dcfan88 · 03-05-2017, 04:20 PM

I won a bid for this on ebay recently. I'm looking forward to watching the B&C edition of Fury Road and the Road War documentary.
The question I have to ask myself now is do I keep my Mad Max metalpak I got from Best Buy or do I sell it?

Arawn · 03-05-2017, 05:03 PM

Keep it, it's the only version of the release with a decent cover.

I'm having difficulty with my Black and Chrome disc. I'm not sure what the problem is, but the audio is super echoey on the music and sound effects channels. Dialogue channel has no echo. This issue is only on the B&C disc. Regular Fury Road does not have this effect. I've tried it on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and LG blu ray player, same echo issue. Anyone got any ideas how to remedy this? Or is this a disc mastering error?

Sounds like a bad disc to me.

Peeps in the DC area, the Lockheed IMAX at the Air and Space Museum is playing the Black and Chrome version at 7:50pm on Sunday, March 26 - https://www.si.edu/Imax/Movie/1321

I've just noticed that the specs for the first film lists three English audio tracks with two of them being in mono. One of them has original in brackets next to it.

Can anyone confirm if this release does indeed have the original Australian mono mix?

It's the MGM release so that means DTS-HD MA 5.1 for the Aussie, DD mono for the US dub and DD mono for the "original" Aussie mono. I put original in quotes because it's NOT the proper mono mix.

Bugger! Ta anyway.

Looks like I'll probably stick with my Warners trilogy set and pick up the black and chrome version of Fury Road separately.

Is the new documentary any good?

It's decent, but it's not a must unless you are a diehard Mad Max like myself. The best thing about this set is that it has all 3 versions of Fury Road: Theatrical, B & C, and UHD.

Recently picked this up used on Amazon for $20. Not a massive fan, but at that price I couldn't say no.

Just started to watch the "Madness of Max" 180minute (!) documentary and...wow...some of the worst DVD images I have ever seen. Did they get this off YouTube?! How did they not have a better source to use?

Yes. In perfect condition. Even had a valid download code I was able to sell.

Nice find, I got a good price on my set at Barnes and Noble when they had 40% Blu-ray sale. I got my set for $34.56 after discounts and coupons.
