minutemancl Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 That trailer looks great. -Shady Sands mention on the library sign! -That is ABSOLUTELY Matt Berry's voice for the Mr Handy, which rules -The reference to the first Fallout 3 trailer is pretty sick, with "I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire" kicking in right as the protagonist starts looking inside a destroyed car -Walton Goggins's ghoul character looks to have a similar backstory to the Vault-Tec rep you meet at the very beginning of Fallout 4 This looks really fun. And most importantly, they are adapting the WORLD of Fallout, NOT the story of a particular game. That is always the deathblow of any video game show or movie before it is even released. Video game narratives rarely, if ever, translate well to a movie/show narrative. The much better course of action seems to be what this Fallout show is doing. I'm excited! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gnat Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 As someone who hasn't played the Fallout games, this looks like a lot of fun. I'm not sure what the overall plot is going to be, I'm fine with that, but the setting looks really cool. And the overall aesthetic definitely has me intrigued. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming you've played the games but if not, I get it Hide spoilers if going into details that might give away anything Gnat, or anyone who hasn't played the game, might not want to see Edited March 8 by BobbyPhil1781 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trailer looks great don’t get me wrong, but I have no attachment that gets me excited for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacReady Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 I'm hoping this series lasts long enough for us to get a cosmic horror episode like both Fallout 3 and 4 had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJM217 Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Hell yeah this looks awesome. I'm excited for this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tugboat Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 I definitely gonna watch this. But i'm also probably going to miss so many "inside jokes" i bet. Because i never could actually get into the game itself. Just way too open-ended. And when given the chance to do "self-guided" story and exploration...i'll usually just stick around and set up camp where i'm at.

BobbyPhil1781 Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 (edited) ING loved it https://www.ign.com/articles/fallout-season-1-review-amazon-prime-video?utm_source=twitter 9/10 Verdict A bright and funny apocalypse filled with dark punchlines and bursts of ultra-violence, Fallout stands up there with The Last of Us among the best game adaptations ever made. Brilliantly constructed, its three distinct leads travel through cleverly linked storylines that build to a fantastic finale. Along the way, there’s a megaton of treats for long-term fans thanks to immaculate production design and attention to detail, but never at the expense of making this an ideal starting point for the uninitiated. It’s another special effort from Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy, and easily earns a big thumbs up. Edited April 10 by BobbyPhil1781 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobbyPhil1781 Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 I had pretty high expectations for this and Ep1 blew them out of the water. Amazing pilot. Wife is even a fan which makes it even better. Can't wait for more tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
