It's kind of bizarre in that the original film completely goes against what most people perceive Mad Max to be about. When you think Mad Max, you think of the post-apocalyptic world of the sequels. The original 'Mad Max' feels like a prequel or something - not the first film that kickstarted the franchise.

I didn't watch Mad Max since my childhood and always thought The Road Warrior was the first one and I loved the post apocalyptic and cool world.
So this was totally not what I was expecting. Didn't like this one at all. -

Definitely my favouritethe older I've gotten the more I appreciate the 'cop thriller' tone of this one, whilst the less I appreciate the fantasy tone of MM2 (which used to be my favourite).
Not fussed about the other 2 films at all to be honest. Thunderdome is actually really crappy.
do you REALLY love lamp? -

Absofrickinglutely. I just rewatched it and Road Warrior, in honor of Fury Road (no great need to revisit Thunderdome) and it still reigns supreme. Someone recently tried to convince me otherwise and I was beginning to doubt my own recollection, but nah, it's all still there.
The realism is key in the story, whereas, as others have stated, the follow-ups become more and more purely action-driven. Fury Road is totally over the top, in a good way, but I remember the growing sense of foreboding and doom of the original and it still has that same effect.
The 70's were just an incredibly rich decade for film and other art.
