Maybe I missed something, but the underperformance of “Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga” over its opening weekend did not cause the usual explosion of sexist edgelords sharing “go woke, go broke” posts.
There are always a few floaters determined to escape the flush, but fewer people are taking them seriously, which is something of a relief. The overall consensus is that George Miller’s “Mad Max: Fury Road” prequel is outstanding, and its $32 million four-day total for Anya Taylor-Joy’s debut as its namesake hero was still enough to score the top box office ranking. Its second weekend out is another story.
