I knew Ella Purnell and Goggins would be really good, but the Maximus interrogation scene was a fantastic flex from Aaron Moten and really commendable for Nolan to rely on his actors to offer more stagecraft
of the three protagonists, he impressed me the most because I also knew the other two would drive it out of the park. I'm really excited to see his arch in season 2
Ella has these really expressive eyes that work so well for Lucy's character and for portraying this kind of innocent and honest naiveté, I feel. My favourite moment on the down low was the scene with the ripper saw. The deep sigh, the look... "Okiedokie!" and BZZZZZZZZZZZZ.... :D
@@Dene181 If you mean the cartoon character from the Kevin Conroy Batman days, sure. But let's not insult Ella by lumping her in with Birds of Prey etc. Harley Quinn! :D
oh yeah it was even better when the military dudes from brotherhood of steel find the body without the head and go "the ghoul must have done it, not the girl... yeah definitely ghoul" :D
@Trabsol so i have heard that the show is canon with the events of the game, seeing the prydwen flying over the BOS base means the Offical canon ending for fallout 4 is the BOS ending.
I was blown away by how well they managed to nail the tone of the games. All that was missing was having the soundtrack play through a pipboy a couple times.
The scene where she just casually asks Max if he wanted to have sex with her is the best scene. Not because of the sex (or lack there of) but because of Max’s response. It takes a second to figure out exactly what he’s describing and it’s hilarious.
i first saw her in a tim burton movie called miss peregrine's home for peculiar children, she plays the girl that's light as air in that film and was stoked to see that she's in fallout!
"You've gotten more British in the last 10 minutes" - totally get that! One of my roommates in college was from Boston, and he had an accent, but it was never overly thick. But whenever his buddies from home came to visit, it sounded like we were suddenly in the middle of Good Will Hunting.
I love how enthusiastic the actors and creators are about the project, the lore, the game and how hard they're all working to please not only the fans in general but specifically the fans of the game. So refreshing to see in this day and age.
The Fallout TV series is freaking awesome. I was prepared to be disappointed before I started watching because most video game adaptations are terrible. But this show is beyond amazing. As a Fallout fan since the 90s, I have to say bravo. The acting, directing, writing, and all the audio-visual details are spot on. Great job!
i never played the game so idk if that’s how the character acts but i found his performance terrible. his facial expressions were so damn cringe i couldn’t get over it.
@@wh1skeybudhes not a character in a game. this is in the same universe but based in a different part of the US. maybe play a fallout game and you’ll understand
Thanks to all the people who were generous enough to thumbs up my post even though I made a spelling error. My faith in humanity just got a little boost 😀
Ella was fantastic in the show, I was excited to know she was part of this after her performance as the Voice of Jinx in Arcane Aaron Moten is new for me, and he definitely nailed it! The interrogation scene was enthralling, and he just seems so fun Of course Goggins was amazing, just extremely charismatic and immense presence in every scene And MacLachlan fit perfectly and I can't imagine anyone else playing the character
There are a lot of critics of the TV show, like "lore" fanatics. I just don't care about any of that, it's some of the BEST entertainment I have seen in many years. Great actors too!! Attention to details, well done. I give it an A+.
I'm huge on lore myself but I honestly felt the liberties taken in the show were of minimal impact while also either making more sense or more easily setting up more for future games and the show. Edit: Idk why I said more so much
I'm a lore fanatic and let me tell you: 99% of the people complaining about changes or mistakes are just plain wrong and not so knowledgeable themselves... 😅
@@bryanotero123 They didn't. People are hung up on Shady Sands being destroyed because they think it happened before New Vegas, except it didn't. In the scene where the history of the NCR is shown, it says "2277" as "the fall of Shady Sands, with an arrow pointing next to it to a nuke, indicating that it happened AFTER then
Yeah im mainly a fan of the first game and i thought it was perfectly fine, the brotherhood is more like fallout 1 than any of the other games even 2 and New Vegas, the vaults had intrigue about them rather than the “evil for no reason” from bethesda vaults.
They did such an AMAZING job with this show!! Can't wait to see what they do with the 2nd season!! On a side note, I'd love it if someone, somewhere did something like this with the Bioshock game series.
Show was really well done. Didnt plan to binge it, but couldnt stop this wonderful trainwreck. Excellent acting, sets, costumes, props, cinematography. Just cant praise them enough. And so many delightful cameos.
"I grabbed a moldy one." That really drove home how much form over function the Overseer of Vault 4 was. He gets a cup of coffee, leaves it on his desk until it's growing mold in the leftover cold coffee, and then picks it up and drinks out of it because he's forgotten which cup is relatively recent and which one has been there a week or more. Someone who thinks about "why" and "how" isn't going to just leave stale coffee on his desk for a week. But he doesn't have a routine, or a procedure, for getting rid of the old cup. He just has one for getting a fresh cup. It just never occurs to him that following a pointless routine that doesn't allow for practical considerations isn't a good idea. Then, later in the scene, he *insists* to Lucy's face that her name is actually Gucy (pronounced "Goosey") because that's what someone wrote down on her paperwork. Doesn't matter that she knows what her own name is, only the paperwork matters. Routine over reality.
when the knight took of his helmet and it was Michael Rappaport i was like lmfao no way!! i knew i recognized those "oh fuck, oh fuck fuuuuuck" great cast tho, I'm halfway through and its pretty decent so far. but as Todd would say, "it just works"
Love the games, loving the show, and falling in love with all of these new characters... But can I just say for all of us how much we love Ali Plumb too!!
Loved the show which was a great relief! Particularly the ending - setting the tone for season two with a deathclaw skull and new Vegas in the distance. Goody gumdrops 😁
As a fan of the games, I gotta say that this is the best and most faithful adaptation of a game that I've ever seen, I'm really enjoying the show! Also, is it just me or does Maximus and his journey (and also the actor) somewhat remind you of Finn from Star Wars?
A lot of people don't care for Maximus it seems, but I really enjoyed how morally ambiguous he seems early on and how he goes from stultified, 'rabbit in the headlights' bewilderment to just about vaguely competent by the end once he has stakes beyond his own skin to think about. There's something about him that reminds me of a Coen Brothers sort of character.
One thing that is really striking to me, that I really appreciate, is the way the actors deliver their dialogue. The timing, emotion, and inflections really make the show and characters pop.
They did such an amazing job replicating all the tiny decorative details from the game. I've been a constant Leo Decaprio pointing meme thru the whole episodes...
I'm so glad to hear that! I'm the same kind of person (I was a trial of patience to my bf when visiting Venice after playing Assassin's Creed) and Fallout is by far my favorite game franchise! I haven't started watching the series yet as I really need the entire season so I've been biting my nails, worrying if it would be true to the game. Your words are truly comforting to me 🥰
The sets and props are the real stars. Nothing feels cheap (except maybe some of the cgi). I love they built real sets To edit not saying everything and everyone weren't brilliant; they were. But the world they built was just that good
Ella voicing Jinx in Arcane, and now this, she’s really left an awesome mark in the games adapted into shows. Even if she’s not that good at the games herself 😅
Some easter eggs I can remember after binging the whole thing last night (spoilers): Mr. Howard, New Vegas, NCR armor and helmet (literally my avatar), Dogmeat, Groknak the barbarian, Enclave, cryochambers, computer hacking, the S.P.E.C.I.A.L and the skill system (speech, gun,...)
the entire thing was one big easter egg love letter to fans. And New Vegas, chef's kiss. Season 2 here we come. There was a billboard that was decayed for Sunset Sarsaparilla, too, in one scene.
Can Fallout objects appearing in a Fallout show really be considered easter eggs? They would only be easter eggs if they appeared in a show that wasn't about Fallout...
I went in with hype being minimal and figured I'd watch a couple episodes everyday, and then it became "okay I'll watch half and then the other half tomorrow", all to finally be at the last episode saying "screw it, let's finish this". It was such a good show.
You do know Denzel Washingtons son is a actor. John Washington. He sounds just like his dad and actually a pretty good actor. He was the black dude in Tenet.
I find him to be a way better actor than John David Washington too. Like JWD is way to monotone. Always wished Yayha Abdul Mateen had gotten the Tenet role he would have made that movie way better.
God Ella Purcell is so damn cute, and if I could make it happen I would recast Kang in the MCU with Alex. He’s such a good actor and looks exactly like a younger Jonathan Majors
Never played the game, just saw the series come up on screen when I started Netflix on TV. Watched episode one and immediately told my Dad about it that night to see if he would enjoy it. I ended up bing watching thru episode 8 before I could allow myself to go to bed. Absolutely loved it! Cant wait for there to be more, I hope there is more then 8!
When I first heard my favourite game was getting an accurately depicted show, I instantly said, it needs to be from multiple points of view, showing people from different factions, inevitably meeting, and going on a quest together, i was pretty much spot on Though I dont see any other way they could have done it better really haha I've got 2 episodes left and I've been smiling throughout every episode, because its so perfect, I 100% guarantee this success will green light *The Elder Scrolls* Series, along with Fallout season 2, makes me so happy 😅
Elder scrolls will be so hard to adapt. Like how do you adapt the world of tamriel well, set it in a part of tamriel not seen in the games, or present all of tamriel in some way? It's a much harder adaptation effort either way they try to.
@@SeanSMST you say that, but Fallout is technically bigger than Tamriel, its the entirety of America, if you don't consider what happens in the rest of the world, they could do what they did with fallout, 3 stories from different races, that end up interacting whilst on some quest, I think 1 of the characters should be the dragon born though, it doesn't need to incorporate everything from the elder scrolls, just snippets, just like fallout didnt have deathclaws, molerats, protections, super mutants ect They have so many possibilities with both fallout and elder scrolls, because they could have like 6 spin off series, because the lore is so thick, maybe we will finally find out what happened to the dwarves, just like we finally got confirmation that vault tech dropped the nukes Just think Game of thrones with extra magika
I've only seen the first episode so far as I'm trying to pace myself and make the show last. Super tough to do seeing all the hype from people who binged, but I'm avoiding spoilers and muted everything fallout on social media. The Fallout games are some of my favorite of all time. Poured hundreds of hours into each entry, and the show hooked me with the very first episode. Can't wait to start the next one tonight!
This moment felt like the peak in Lucy’s character. Where she finally accepts the wasteland for what it is and becomes that “animal” type person that Siggi was talking about.
Finiished the series saturday morning .Had no idea about the game barely the premise aside from the trailer that i barely remember and i was so glad that i didnt knpw much of anything .Fantastic series Ellla purnell and Walter goggins superb casting needless to say im hooiked what a ride cannot wait for season 2.
The show was so good that all that was truly missing for fans of the games were super mutants and deathclaws. I’m guessing in season two is when we’ll probably see them.
@Trabsol this is not a good argument at all. Of course they can always add new stuff in, but seing creatures, characters, weapons and so on that already existed will make people feel something which the new stuff they come up with won't.
I love that there's Lucy char presets, Maximus, Lucy's backpack, gun sfx from the series, Cooper char presets, and more mods on the Nexus already! I might actually make an "okie dokie!" mod that plays when you level up or something. Made a couple of FOMODS in the past for Skyrim for MO2, should be pretty easy!
The valt colors and suit and the old 70s look is what does it for me,i might use other gear over it but most of the time i keep my vaultsuit or armor on,ya i switch it up with other gear but i always come back to it. and ofc the music is great and the brotherhood armor it all comes together so wel
Loved this series!!! And I have never played any Fallout games...but I have watched a LOT of videos on TH-cam recently to learn some of the lore...😂 Walton Goggins was immense in his role of the Ghoul...he reminded me a lot of when Val Kilmer played Doc Holliday in Tombstone...which was a stellar performance! I reckon Goggins will soon be cast in a major MCU or DCU role... The rest of the cast was also really good...props to the casting directors who must have had to work within a restricted budget given the obvious large amount being spent on the amazing live sets, costumes and CGI!! Have to admit I had never heard of Ella Purnell...I was shocked when I found out she was English!!! But she was a really strong and watchable lead. Honestly I was less impressed with Aaron Moten for the first few episodes but I think this was maybe how the director wanted him to play the role...because by the last 2 or 3 episodes he really evolved the character. Moses Arias (Lucy's brother) and Johnny Pemberton (Thaddeus) were briliiant in their supporting roles too...and it was a great blast from the past to see Kyle MacLachan again for old Twin Peaks fans like me! Finally...a special acknowledgement has to go to Matt Berry for his voice role as Mr Handy!!! It was epic!!! 😂😂😂 I really hope we see more of that robot in the 2nd season.
I've always adored Ella Purnell. It's awesome that she even played the game (and watched a bunch of youtube and twitch). Also, LOVE Goggins. The Ghoul was awesome. I was also rather surprised how much I like Aaron Moten in this too. Maybe it's just me, being one the game player (played ALL the Fallout games), but yeah, I feel some emotional disconnect to the show, unfortunately. Like it didn't quite 'hit' me in the right 'feel,' but overall, what an awesome spectacle that was. A bunch of easter eggs. I watched with another fellow Fallout enthusiast, it's just so much fun to just admire the whole freaking details they put on the set, the monsters, the costuming, the attitude of the people, it's so good that I'm like, oh wow, Fallout in live action is really that awesome to watch. I do think it's funny at moments though. Although like many have talked about on Reddit (yes, I'm part of the Fallout reddit thread, I love reading ppl's comments)...we're wondering about the timeline. Y'know, since in the blackboard it talked about 2277 about NCR then 2281 was the FNV timeline. Sooo...what's up with that part, are they rewriting that part of the lore?
ROFL. This entire cast was amazing. But Ella, Aaron, and Walton made this movie glow. I also cannot believe she is British. Just shows how awesome she is!
Matt Berry as the robot Mr Handy is the best casting ever!
AND, his last name in the show is Codsworth!
Yea it’s a little sad to see them replace John Cleese, but I get why it’s not realistic long term option… definitely a great replacement
He’s got 100 in Charismaaeeee
@@Haywood.Yablomee When did Cleese voice Codsworth? In fo4 and 3 it was Stephen Russell, the man who voiced half of Skyrim.

Lucy is damn adorable, quirky and so naive. The negotiation scene was adorable.
And so brave! She's got her quests and she's getting them done!

She's a treat. Looking forward to watching through the show
Ella Purnell really seems like someone who can play a live action Corpse Bride

YES!!... the robots fo4 added were some of the best worldbuilding done in that game imo. loved to see one as an easter egg for fans

It’s so rare a show has actors and roles that make you like everyone equally for different reasons.

"the problem with being competitive and not very good is, you're just angry all the time!" Yes Ella...I feel you :D
Another great series of interviews by Ali Plumb! This show was so great, and this cast is incredible.
This show is amazing. What a triumph!!!
These 2 absolutely smashed it! Great casting
The actor for Lucy seems so down to earth and she’s so charming and funny!!! I would love to see her in more comedies❤❤
I swear I've seen Denzel Washington in this guy performance really interesting.
The first time I saw Aaron in the show I actually thought it was Denzel's son or something.
saaaame
You do know Denzel Washingtons son is a actor. John Washington. He sounds just like his dad and actually a pretty good actor. He was the black dude in Tenet.
I thought he was the younger brother of Peele when he was frowning in some scenes.
I find him to be a way better actor than John David Washington too. Like JWD is way to monotone. Always wished Yayha Abdul Mateen had gotten the Tenet role he would have made that movie way better.
great cast, great script, great action and acting. it can be done.
God Ella Purcell is so damn cute, and if I could make it happen I would recast Kang in the MCU with Alex. He’s such a good actor and looks exactly like a younger Jonathan Majors
Honestly this series has been phenomenal.
An absolute awesome series
Great cast, excellent transition from game universe to tv.
Got to love it when they don't piss on the game.
Never played the game, just saw the series come up on screen when I started Netflix on TV. Watched episode one and immediately told my Dad about it that night to see if he would enjoy it. I ended up bing watching thru episode 8 before I could allow myself to go to bed. Absolutely loved it! Cant wait for there to be more, I hope there is more then 8!
When I first heard my favourite game was getting an accurately depicted show, I instantly said, it needs to be from multiple points of view, showing people from different factions, inevitably meeting, and going on a quest together, i was pretty much spot on
Though I dont see any other way they could have done it better really haha I've got 2 episodes left and I've been smiling throughout every episode, because its so perfect, I 100% guarantee this success will green light
*The Elder Scrolls*
Series, along with Fallout season 2, makes me so happy 😅
Elder scrolls will be so hard to adapt. Like how do you adapt the world of tamriel well, set it in a part of tamriel not seen in the games, or present all of tamriel in some way? It's a much harder adaptation effort either way they try to.
@@SeanSMST you say that, but Fallout is technically bigger than Tamriel, its the entirety of America, if you don't consider what happens in the rest of the world, they could do what they did with fallout, 3 stories from different races, that end up interacting whilst on some quest, I think 1 of the characters should be the dragon born though, it doesn't need to incorporate everything from the elder scrolls, just snippets, just like fallout didnt have deathclaws, molerats, protections, super mutants ect
They have so many possibilities with both fallout and elder scrolls, because they could have like 6 spin off series, because the lore is so thick, maybe we will finally find out what happened to the dwarves, just like we finally got confirmation that vault tech dropped the nukes
Just think Game of thrones with extra magika
I've only seen the first episode so far as I'm trying to pace myself and make the show last. Super tough to do seeing all the hype from people who binged, but I'm avoiding spoilers and muted everything fallout on social media. The Fallout games are some of my favorite of all time. Poured hundreds of hours into each entry, and the show hooked me with the very first episode. Can't wait to start the next one tonight!
They really really nailed the tone of a fallout story absolutely! Aaron is bang on. Great job by the writers and directors.
Ella is such an optimist that even when asked to describe her least favorite part filming Fallout, she still made it sound like the time of her life.
It took me a while to warm up to Maximus but I became a huge fan of the character and the actor.
8:41 "The problem with being competitive and not very good is you're just angry all the time."
That explains a lot of people.
2:50 Okey dokey!
you all did an amazing job. thank you.
Todd Howard on Radio 1
It just works?
This moment felt like the peak in Lucy’s character. Where she finally accepts the wasteland for what it is and becomes that “animal” type person that Siggi was talking about.
I'm having withdrawals after binging the entire season on release, counting the days till season 2.....FOR THE BROTHERHOOD!!!!
Raced to Fallout Episode 6 already and its fantastic
Jona plays the games thats how they capture the tone so well
Finiished the series saturday morning .Had no idea about the game barely the premise aside from the trailer that i barely remember and i was so glad that i didnt knpw much of anything .Fantastic series Ellla purnell and Walter goggins superb casting needless to say im hooiked what a ride cannot wait for season 2.
Just binged it all, brilliant Fallout is number one okydoky
The show was so good that all that was truly missing for fans of the games were super mutants and deathclaws. I’m guessing in season two is when we’ll probably see them.
I'm actually glad they left so much stuff out bc they needed some things for the next season
@Trabsol this is not a good argument at all. Of course they can always add new stuff in, but seing creatures, characters, weapons and so on that already existed will make people feel something which the new stuff they come up with won't.
@Trabsol and it would feel forced if they would just start making too much up.
I believe Ella Purnell had evolved from bush babies.
I love that there's Lucy char presets, Maximus, Lucy's backpack, gun sfx from the series, Cooper char presets, and more mods on the Nexus already! I might actually make an "okie dokie!" mod that plays when you level up or something. Made a couple of FOMODS in the past for Skyrim for MO2, should be pretty easy!
Damn this interviewer good! One of the best out there...
Aaron Moten is a star
He did so so good.
They are so adorable :D I love the casting is the show ❤
The valt colors and suit and the old 70s look is what does it for me,i might use other gear over it but most of the time i keep my vaultsuit or armor on,ya i switch it up with other gear but i always come back to it.
and ofc the music is great and the brotherhood armor it all comes together so wel
70s? 50s, surely?
im a simple man, i see ali plumb and im obligated to watch the interview
Loved this series!!! And I have never played any Fallout games...but I have watched a LOT of videos on TH-cam recently to learn some of the lore...😂
Walton Goggins was immense in his role of the Ghoul...he reminded me a lot of when Val Kilmer played Doc Holliday in Tombstone...which was a stellar performance!
I reckon Goggins will soon be cast in a major MCU or DCU role...
The rest of the cast was also really good...props to the casting directors who must have had to work within a restricted budget given the obvious large amount being spent on the amazing live sets, costumes and CGI!!
Have to admit I had never heard of Ella Purnell...I was shocked when I found out she was English!!! But she was a really strong and watchable lead.
Honestly I was less impressed with Aaron Moten for the first few episodes but I think this was maybe how the director wanted him to play the role...because by the last 2 or 3 episodes he really evolved the character.
Moses Arias (Lucy's brother) and Johnny Pemberton (Thaddeus) were briliiant in their supporting roles too...and it was a great blast from the past to see Kyle MacLachan again for old Twin Peaks fans like me!
Finally...a special acknowledgement has to go to Matt Berry for his voice role as Mr Handy!!! It was epic!!! 😂😂😂
I really hope we see more of that robot in the 2nd season.
so obsessed with this show! tbh it's a masterpiece and I haven't even played the games
I legit thought Aaron Moten was Denzel Washington's son when I first saw him. He is great!! Him and Ella have great chemistry in this interview too :)
Ali Plumb is a effing mysterium. He also relaxes his guests to unbevlievable degrees...this happens when you put 10 points in Charisma!
8:37 Perfectly describing a War Thunder Player.
What an amazing show!!
I've always adored Ella Purnell. It's awesome that she even played the game (and watched a bunch of youtube and twitch). Also, LOVE Goggins. The Ghoul was awesome. I was also rather surprised how much I like Aaron Moten in this too.
Maybe it's just me, being one the game player (played ALL the Fallout games), but yeah, I feel some emotional disconnect to the show, unfortunately. Like it didn't quite 'hit' me in the right 'feel,' but overall, what an awesome spectacle that was. A bunch of easter eggs. I watched with another fellow Fallout enthusiast, it's just so much fun to just admire the whole freaking details they put on the set, the monsters, the costuming, the attitude of the people, it's so good that I'm like, oh wow, Fallout in live action is really that awesome to watch. I do think it's funny at moments though. Although like many have talked about on Reddit (yes, I'm part of the Fallout reddit thread, I love reading ppl's comments)...we're wondering about the timeline. Y'know, since in the blackboard it talked about 2277 about NCR then 2281 was the FNV timeline. Sooo...what's up with that part, are they rewriting that part of the lore?
Wouldnt that just mean it's a prequel to FNV?
@@TEMINIX i watched WIRED Q&A and its confirmed that the show took place 9 years after Fallout 4
The Show just Works
ROFL. This entire cast was amazing. But Ella, Aaron, and Walton made this movie glow. I also cannot believe she is British. Just shows how awesome she is!
