that was shockingly interesting
this trailer looks better than the Furiosa trailer.
What the fuck man where the hell did this spring up from? This just started a flame in my heart.
I don’t suppose in your heart you have but one desire?
Is that desire to light a flame in your heart instead of the whole world? You pyromaniac!
guess i will watch it. lets hope its not complete shit
They’re going to find a way to release the films with bugs and release a day one patch
the trailer looks great and really has that fallout spirit somewhere between funny, gruesome and batshit crazy.
Also great to see Walton Goggins in the cast, he’s a great actor
I’m on a strict “don’t trust trailers” diet since seeing the new Napoleon film, so I’ll wait and see for this series.
What do you mean ? Is Napoleon shit; I haven’t seen it yet?
Please 🙏 don’t be shit
I haven’t seen it yet, but one review said it was one of the most unintentionally funny movies of the year.
Also Ridley Scott is doing a hilarious press tour for it.
Scott was informed of some less than stellar French reviews of his film – French GQ called it “deeply clumsy” and “unintentionally funny” – to which Scott replied with the following solid gold banger: “The French don’t even like themselves.”
But don’t think that insulting an entire country is enough for Scott. Speaking to the Sunday Times’s Jonathan Dean last weekend, he also reserved some ire for historians, some of whom have suggested that Napoleon might not be the most rigorously accurate film ever made. Scott responded by addressing the entire historian community. “Excuse me, mate, were you there?” he raged. “No? Well, shut the fuck up then.”

So your saying that its good but not historically accurate. I love history but I can enjoy historical fiction just as much.

I thought it was bad tbh
Didn’t like that it wasn’t historically accurate, but even looking past that it was just boring imo
'Excuse me, mate, were you there? No? Well, shut the f*** up then.’

I love Goggins, this is a perfect universe for his style honestly
He was fantastic in Righteous Gemstones.
Let’s play Baby Billy’s Bible Bonkers!
I haven’t found a place in my life for these types of TV series. Looks good though just prefer the complete arc of a movie or a mini-series.
Sets look kind of big budget artificial, soapy? Like that is some wicked blue dye on the suits, very fresh. Lovely hair and makeup. All good though I realize it’s just not my thing. A cinematic 90 minute fallout movie laser focused on 2-3 character arcs would be exciting to me.
Yeah it looks like it’s artificial almost on purpose. The vault opening and there’s a neat little skull in the corner…
Tbh I don’t mind shitty adaptations that fan service but I think they are missing the mark on this one. I hope I’m wrong tho.
Yeah the badly planted skull seemed pretty lazy. Just show a blasted landscape
How do you mod a TV show?
I think it looks great and am super excited!
I hope Todd Howard had almost zero creative input
This has tempered my expectations for the show. I’ll give it a shot (fallout is my favourite game series), but I’m no longer super excited.
Strange, I got the exact opposite feel from the teaser. If anything they nailed the tone of fallout in that 2 and a half minute spot. Plus the set design and costumes don’t look cheap or fake. Im cautiously optimistic.
The vault costumes definitely looked cheap, more cosplay fan film than professional production in my opinion. And the cgi on the mechs was very uncanny valley
It’s going to be good. I can already tell it has The Boys humor in it and the surprise violence. It will be amazing.
I’m kinda scared that the trailer was knee deep in “from the ____ who did _____ .”
Granted, it’s a teaser trailer, but it would have been cool to see a little more of what this show has to offer. e.g. The Boyz is great, because the story adapted from it’s source material was already interesting. I’d love to learn more about the story of this adaptation, esp since there’s a lot they’d have to do to turn the non linear, choose your own adventure source material into a non-interactive story.
Feels like the showrunners and story writers would have the opposite challenge of, say, The Last of Us. There, it was all about retelling an existing story and resisting the urge to reinvent too much.
Here they’d need to pick one of many stories and fill in a bunch of gaps.
Hope it works out 🤞🙏
Even though each game is a player driven RPG, there’s a canon “through line” of major events from 1 to 2 to New Vegas. 3 and 4 are set far enough away or in a different enough period of time that the plot impact is more minor.
Personally though, I hope this is less of an adaptation and more of a “side stories in the setting”.
Did anyone else notice the abscence of shockwaves when the nukes went off?
I see them clearly. They are not massive, but they are also not absent
Not the worst, lore wise the bombs were less explosive and more dirty
Well I don’t hate it yet…
Hope they manage to get the lead’s makeup smudged.
Kind of a random though but do you think we will ever see shows done in a more connected way? I mean as of now, all the shows are always done in secret. Why not involve fans in the process? Publish videos from the set as you film and get feedback? Publish scripts, test footage and so on. Yes, the element of surprise would be lost but wouldn’t it be nice to see how the show is made and they see the final product? And maybe even influence it a little bit? I would love something like that. What do you think?
Edit: interesting. Looks like only I would be interested in seeing how a show is made.
Nah the last thing these shows need are a bunch of armchair experts chipping in.
Ackshully, those experts are statistically far more likely to be sitting in an office chair or a gaming chair than an arm chair.
*pushes glasses WAAAAY up nose*
Same reason I don’t ask people what they think about my work while I’m doing it, it’s a pain in the ass.
The only reason we watch shows is to get the story. Being spoiled ruins the whole idea of the show. Besides: Even though some showrunners miss the mark, most of the fans ideas of what might come instead are mostly terrible.
People rewatch movies because they love them.
I’m about to watch the final episode of the One Piece adaptation, even though I know exactly what has happened.
The adaptation has deviated slightly from the manga, but that’s to be expected of a series known for filler.
Yeah, I don’t know. In the age of remakes, reboots and huge franchises can we really say that we watch shows for the story? Is any of the Marvel movies about the story? You always now how it will end. If you read the script of Guardians of the Galaxy would it really spoil the movie? I think those movies are actually more about ‘being involved’. Same as Star Trek or Star Wars. It’s about following, being a fan. Story is the weakest part of those movies. It’s all about CGI, action sequences and ‘fan stuff’ like callbacks, references and so on. I think showing what’s happening on the green screen wouldn’t actually spoil anything and would be really interesting to the fans.
And regarding fans ideas Sonic comes to mind. They released the trailer, fans complained and it got fixed.
But I not saying that all the shows should be made like this. For some (most?) I wouldn’t work. I’m just saying… wouldn’t it be interesting to see the entire process for a show like this?
There’s evidence that people like stuff just as much even if they know what’s gonna happen, kind of like how placebos often work even if you tell the person.
I think part of why creators don’t include fans in the process is to avoid the possibility of a lawsuit like “I said there should be a super-mutant/brotherhood of steel secret relationship, and they used my idea! I’m entitled to money!”
Maybe 🤷♂️

No not really. There’s a reason you hire experts to do a job and I for instance hates it if someone try’s to explain to me, a designer, what a good design is…
the nipple is the only good design
everything after that is artifice.
But we have early access video games. You can start playing when it’s in alfa, give feedback. Is it really that bad for creators?
I never do it. I play games when they are finished
Developers don’t use early access to get feedback on lore, world-building and visual aesthetic. They get feedback on gameplay balance and bugs. A movie/TV studio doesn’t have gameplay, it’s all visual. Apples to oranges comparison
Yes but aren’t game developer experts on gameplay balance? Why would they listen to feedback from some amateurs? It’s the same with movies. People who designed Sonic for the movie were also experts, right? Yet they listed to feedback.
So you want to be like those execs that interferes with the production of the show/movie?
Take place in California. But no sign of the New California Republic. Not looking good.
It’s a teaser trailer and the NCR is huge in the lore. It’ll be fine.
So don’t tease the fan favorite faction. Good guys. /s
All they needed to do is show a NCR flag in the background.
I don’t want to give away too much if you haven’t been playing Fallout since the very beginning but the NCR is not started until years after the first game when a person the vault dweller helps, organizes their village to become the New California Republic.
We don’t know when this vault opens. It hasn’t been mentioned in previous games so it might have opened and failed before anything else from series starts or it will take place many years later and we just haven’t seen the NCR and the other factions in the teasers.
Good point, we don’t know when the show takes place. But the Brotherhood have a Prydwen like aircraft. They didn’t have that in the first two games.
True so some time after the Arroyo incident, the brotherhood would have taken vertibird tech from the enclave after the chosen one took them down for the first time.
This assumes the writers for the show give two shits about the lore. They might only use the lore as set dressing for generic post apocalyptic trash.
