The first Mad Max movie is literally just a cop (Max) fighting against a deadly biker gang in a small town. The second movie didn’t say anything about an apocalypse, it was just set in a desert wasteland.
It was the American (maybe international?) version of Mad Max 2 that added a prologue about an apocalyptic world event.
So yeah, in the original Australian version, this may just be some lawless hicks surviving in the Australian desert, while the rest of the world continues on like normal.
I haven’t watched Mad Max one in twenty years, but I’m pretty sure the backdrop is rising international political tensions and the ending suggests a global nuclear war.
Not the parent you’re responding to, but I think it’s that my “mediocre” comment was a reference to the movie, and yours was a literal response to my joke. A bit of a whoosh situation.

Thunderdome is a prime example how Americans ruin everything
Nah that’s Fury Road. Shouldn’t have been called a Max film, it’s just seppo Hollywood action garbage.
So you’re saying it was…mediocre?
Sure?
Yikes.
Sorry, am I meant to thoroughly enjoy every generic Hollywood action movie?
