What to Watch: Mad Max: Fury Road
Where to watch: Available for rent on Amazon & iTunes.
This Sunday is the Golden Globes, which means awards season is officially here! I've been super busy seeing all of the most buzzed-about movies, so I can be sure to know what everyone's talking about when that envelope is opened. That has meant enduring quite a lot of super-depressing movies like The Revenant, Spotlight (twice, it is really that good), The Danish Girl, etc. It's been a sad year to be sure, so I figured we were due a little fun, and no film was more fun this year than Mad Max: Fury Road.
Amazingly, critics and audiences are actually agreeing that Mad Max: Fury Road has some serious heat going into awards season. It really is an expertly made movie, even though it seems from the outside to be just a loud explosion-fest. It is that, don't get me wrong, but man, it's so damn fun to watch that you'll want to turn it up even louder.
What to Eat: Milkshakes And ...
I couldn't quite decide on the perfect food to help you make it through the dry wasteland of the world that is Fury Road. There's lot's of emphasis on "Mother's Milk," which—while upsetting in theory—made me instantly think, OMG, milkshakes! So, I obviously wanted to share one super-awesome milkshake with you guys. But then I was thinking about what else would be needed to survive a trip down Fury Road and came up with some other essentials:
• Water — because it's a WASTELAND, people!
• Cup of Immortal "Joe" — because that guy would make anyone need a cup of coffee
• Beef Jerky — because dry, salty and meaty just screams Fury Road
Basically, you need all the liquids you can get your hands on, and some jerky, to make it through this movie. Sounds like a great weekend to me, particularly when they include these recipes:
