Ouch, the CGI looks really bad and is it all green screen? What made the Mad Max series great was the practical stunts, but this looks all CGI.

I think you hit the nail on the head. Something just felt off, and it’s probably because a lot of this isn’t great green screen work. Colors, lighting, etc - people don’t feel like they’re standing in a real place.

Fury Road was special because most of that stuff felt real… probably because it was.

It was weird how sometimes the people looked like video game characters. Lighting being off when they were doing the green screen shots would explain that.

Might be better when it's done, assuming there's post-prod work remaining.

Considering how much CG there was in Fury Road (https://youtu.be/exK_fVmY8Jk?si=OxGJZfh6UCN4DWJQ) I'm willing to hold my judgement until the final product is released.

Yeah what made the universe great was Miller really fleshed it out, especially the last film. From unique colloquialisms set in that tone, to all the designs and “brutality” of the wasteland.

This looks like a shitty money grab rather than an inspired project.
