Tie ins:

The motion picture soundtrack was made.
  
no toys for the film were released but the film did inspire people to get creative and make their own Lego sets.

The tie-in video game was released on Ps4, Xbox One and PC.


Personal Opinion: My personal opinion on the film is that it is an exhilarating, action packed film filled with likable characters. Particularly impressed with Tom Hardy's performance as he has a near-silent role in the movie speaking only brief sentences. The main character is without a doubt Furiosa as it is clear to see that Max takes the backseat to her in the film due to his absence of presence in most scenes as she is the one who speaks. The other characters only find out his name in the final act of the film.
