Recently read Blood Sweat and Chrome about the making of Fury Road - Furiosa was written during the decades long production of that movie. Originally was going to be an anime tie-in like the Animatrix but they thought it was too good not to save for a movie.
Fury Road being made was a miracle driven by Miller’s unstoppable vision - it went through three studios. At one point it was two weeks away from shooting with Mel Gibson like ten years before it was actually shot. It really is an inspiring story of perserverence.
And what we got was an improvement through newer technology. A 90s or even 00s movie would have been green screen galore, with cgi producing most of the scene. Instead, cgi evolved to be able to erase the cables and other safety items to make most of the movie a practical stunt. As Miller kept dreaming up more crazy cars, those too became reality with time as improved materials and engineering allowed them to exist. Iirc, the biggest surprise in Fury Road development was the “pole cat” cars.
