Favorite world-building elements: Limited exposition

When introducing another one of my favorite movies, Kevin Smith said:

It doesn’t give a shit whether you know what’s going on or not. It dumps you right into the middle of an existing universe that things have happened in before, and the movie accepts the fact that hey, our audience might be bright enough to catch up.

That’s what Fury Road does.

Tags: fury road, mmfr, mad max, exposition, no one in this movie ever stops what they're doing, to explain the world to another character, why would they?, they live there, give the audience 2+2, not 4, thank you george miller. Posted in Tumblr by jbc | Permalink | No Comments »
