For the last 30 years, monopolies could only be broken up if the corporation bought other companies "without the intention of of forming a “monopoly.”

With the intention of forming a monopoly?

This is just a very specific tangent. It is obviously different than the baseline shooting experience. It would be difficult to mistake this kind of target shooting for anything resembling practical shooting. That’s alright. It can exist as its own thing.

TLDR the article ranks:

1. Road Warrior
2. Fury Road
3. Furiosa
4. Mad Max
5. Beyond Thunderdome

I personally don’t like slotting enjoyment of movies into hard ranked categories. Movies can have aspects that are kind of prismatic, where depending on my mood at the time of thinking about them I might like or dislike what they’ve done. Beyond Thunderdome is a movie with a lot of these elements. It is in many ways a great and perfect third movie in the original series, being the furthest along in the timeline and showing humanity and civilization have gone the most awry from present day. It does a lot to retroactively shape perceptions of the Mad Max franchise that people tend to ignore.

And that’s just a preamble to an actually discussion about one of the movies.
