People who say Fury Road, original Max, or Thunderdome are the best all unite as Mad Max fans?
maybe because we all like different things and enjoy different styles of movies, effects, production values. those things vary wildly between the movies, and so do the people.

Because this is the internet. Shrill, juvenile, pointless arguments are the norm here.
"You may have come on no bicycle, but that does not say that you know everything."
Why?
You can be a Mad Max/Star Wars/Indiana Jones/James Bond etc fan without liking them all. If people prefer/dislike a movie in a series, and feel the filmmakers have dropped the ball or improved on it obviously they're going to express it on movie forums.
As far as I'm concerned Mad Max ended with The Road Warrior but that's nothing more than just my opinion.

Now that I come to think about it, I really don't see it as a series, at all. Each of them, including Fury Road, is different enough in FEEL, to me that there's no actual connection between them. It's the same way that, to me, Clint Eastwood's Dirty Harry movies are a series, but his spaghetti Westerns were individual films.
Am I making any sense?

A lot of people say that, although I find that the original and The Road Warrior have the most in common. The first film starts with the world on the brink of collapse, but still functional. The second begins probably around 5-10 years later, where society has completely crumbled and marauders rule the wasteland. But you're right that each film can work as a standalone, without needing to see the previous to be understood.

Indeed.
The characters in and makers of TRW both had to do the best they could with very little resources, and it just works so well.
I love both The Road Warrior and Mad Max: Fury Road about equally, although George Miller is obviously a much more seasoned filmmaker now than he was 35 years ago. I'm fond of the first Mad Max and Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome as well, but at the end of the day it all comes down to personal taste I suppose. Nostalgia may also play a factor in the choices some people make for their favorite.
Anyway, it's a great series and I love revisiting the older films while looking forward to what else Miller has in store for the inevitable next installment.

Cause all the Max movies aint good or even well made, if you have a brain or any film knowledge at all you would underastand this and dont ask such stupid questions...Fury Road is without a doubt the most well made mad max movie but this road warrior is the best of the real mad max movies, cause its the most well made in everything of the three original movies, I for one cant like a movie even if its called Mad Max if the script, Cinematography, actors, dialouge or even the realistic details sucks.
