Asfaloth, I'm actually a gigantic Mad Max fan, but still didn't like this as a finale for a variety of reasons. Among other things, not everything needs to be shoehorned into something else. Like, for awhile after Batman, studios tried to make every single superhero into a version of Batman. Like, I love Batman, but every single superhero should not now be dark and brooding and silent and violent. They should be themselves. Same thing with this arc, you don't screw around with the character of Leo, on a fundamental level, just because you need a Mad Max bad guy to turn good (with apparently no consequences?). It's like you had the role you had to shoehorn him into, rather than writing an organic story that made sense. And again, I would say Mad Max Fury Road is probably one of my favorite action movies of all time. But it doesn't mean everything in the world should be a copy of it, to the detriment of their own narratives and characters.
