The War Rig Family Driving To The Green Place Of Many Mothers

Things I Loved About These Scenes:

While not explicitly one continuous scene, I loved how the War Rig Family (now sans The Splendid Angharad, sadly) had relatively peaceful moments inside their massive getaway vehicle despite the fact that they were still not in the clear from the pursuing war parties of Immortan Joe and that they had a long way to go before arriving at the Green Place of Many Mothers.

I mean, really: how fucking badass is it of Furiosa to make repairs under her jacked-up tanker while said vehicle is still in motion?! Like, they could have stopped in order for her to properly fix the damage but she's all like, "Fuck stopping! FYI, we're still being chased by a psycho warlord, so let's keep my baby moving while I fix her up good." Lesser cinematic heroine bitches better bow the fuck down to her incontrovertible awesomeness.

The long drive to the Green Place was also the moment where Capable and Nux had their version of a meet-cute. There are no words to describe how tender and heart-wrenching their interaction was inside the War Rig's lookout post.

It was so interesting to see The Dag trace the symbol of Immortan Joe embossed on the passenger cabin's roof while Toast was silently taking inventory of their dwindling ammunition. There could be several possible explanations as to why the Dag would be fixated on tracing an image associated with her oppressor, but my interpretation would be that since she has this eccentric and sort of shamanistic aura, the Dag was trying to place a repelling curse on her rapist's emblem so that she and the rest of the War Rig Family would be free from Joe's treacherous reach.

The nighttime drive scenes were so great, too! There was that pensive moment where The Wives huddled with each other in the backseat as Capable and Cheedo held a lantern whose light gave a nice contrast to the blue night enveloping them. The other cool part was when the tanker drove past the now-dead Green Place and the War Rig Family caught a good glimpse of the creepy Swamp Crows. Though the latter scene was so fascinating to see, I loved how it was just short enough to immediately capture my attention and it would be a memorably striking image that would stay in my mind even after several viewings of the movie.

Of course, I can't forget the part where the young and beautiful kids all slept in the backseat while Dad Max and Mom Furiosa had a really deep conversation about Mom's motivation and reasons for taking the kids to the Green Place. Also, plenty of reasons for the Fury Road fandom shippers to celebrate in this moment because you got Maxiosa and Cheedag (or Dag/Cheedo/Toast) and Nuxable. There's practically a formidable armada of great OTP ships just waiting to be sailed right inside the War Rig!

Enough said about Nux eating that bug with Capable snoozing gently next to him. Precious cinnamon roll and all that jazz.

That awesome moment when Furiosa finally spotted a familiar landmark that she remembers from her childhood. You can literally see the spark of hope twinkle in her eyes as she lowers her binoculars.

How very astute of Dad Max to correctly assume that seeing a naked and distressed woman (hey, it's The Valkyrie!) on top of a disused electric tower is actually a trap for unsuspecting scavengers. But naturally, Mom Furiosa knows the real deal behind this sneaky setup and she's all like, "Chillax, everyone. Mama's got this. All of you stay in the War Rig while I handle this because shit is about to get hella fucking real for all of us. But in a good way, obvs."
