Based on one of the greatest video game series of all time, Fallout is the story of haves and have-nots in a world in which there’s almost nothing left to have. 200 years after the apocalypse, the gentle denizens of luxury fallout shelters are forced to return to the irradiated hellscape their ancestors left behind — and are shocked to discover an incredibly complex, gleefully weird and highly violent universe waiting for them. From executive producers Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy, the creators of Westworld, starring Ella Purnell, Aaron Moten, Walton Goggins and more. All episodes arrive April 11 on Prime Video.

    There is a feeling my whole body gets when I see a wasteland and hear that song. Nothing in this trailer gives me concern. The visuals look great, all the references look great, the tone seems great, I’m SO AMPED.

      Any concern I had about them fucking this up are pretty much gone now. I am so goddamn excited!

      I think the ghoul could have looked better imo. His skin looked way to smooth and nice. He looked like just a human with a deep tan and no nose.

        From the trailer it looks like he was an actor before the bombs fell so maybe he took care of his skin as he transformed into a ghoul and that’s why he doesn’t look as messed up?

            Same here. In a world where a quick nap or a shot from a stimpak cures a broken leg he probably just rubbed dirt on his face or something

    It looks like it’s not taking itself too seriously, which I’m thankful for. The small moments of humor were crucial to the feeling of the games imo.

    Well gee, a video game TV show adaptation that might actually be faithful to the source material? (Looking at you The Witcher) Too early to be sure, but here’s hoping.

      I wouldn’t get my hopes up given Amazon’s track-record but yeah, it does look like it could be pretty good

        Amazon’s track record isn’t all bad. They adapted The Boys pretty well. And then there’s… um, oh yeah, Invincible is another one.

    I have next to zero hope for this.

    The PIP boy is facing the wrong way 🤦‍♂️

    Also where’s the NCR?

      She is wearing a vault 33 suit. Since it isn’t a vault from any of the games we don’t know when this is. It could be before Vault 13 opened up in the original game, then the vaultdweller will not have helped Tandy in Shady Sands join together with other towns to create the NCR yet. The Brotherhood having the large airship seems out of timeline though they might have had it all along and just not brought it into the open until Fallout 4.
