I’m not sure you can call Furiosa franchise milking.

Apart from sharing a name the 2015 film came out 30 years after the previous film and has little to actually connect them apart from the main characters name and the general theme. If it wasn’t the same director it would be just a love letter to those films instead of a reboot.

Furiosa is a prequel that came out 9 years later.

Making a film and then a follow up 9 years later is FAR from milking a franchise.

Additionally both stories are completely new and not remakes.
