This 'Mad Max: Fury Road'-'Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt' Mashup Is Perfect, Dammit
As both "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt" and "Mad Max: Fury Road" have proven, females are strong as hell. Now, one enterprising YouTuber has taken that concept to its logical conclusion, and created a mashup of the Netflix series and the action flick.
Featuring the auto-tuned "Kimmy" viral video spliced with footage from "Fury Road," the clip works surprisingly well, singing the virtues of the badass women who escaped the clutches of a sadistic madman who kept them trapped for years (a plotline that can apply to both the show and the movie). Kimmy's (Ellie Kemper) story meshes perfectly with that of Imperator Furiosa (Charlize Theron), who similarly breaks free from Immortan Joe (Hugh Keays-Byrne) to become Unbreakable Imperator Furiosa.
Sadly, there's no Titus (Tituss Burgess) stand-in for the ladies of "Fury Road" (maybe the next mashup video can feature Tom Hardy's Max belting out a special apocalypse-themed rendition of "Peeno Noir"?), but we think their new theme song is perfect all the same. Check out the awesome clip below, dammit.
