Fallout 1x1 Reaction: The End
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 18 เม.ย. 2024
- Based on one of the greatest video games 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 incredibly complex, gleefully weird and highly violent universe waiting for them above.

Just a little non spoiler background:
After WW2 they started using nuclear energy for basically everything (cars, robots, computers, etc) and the transistor was never invented, that's why everything is big and cluncky but semi futuristic.
Also only those 3 vaults are connected, every vault has its own unique thing, and there's are least 120 vaults in canon.
theres 122 actually but the rest of that is mostly accurate. Though should be noted even pre WW2 there is differences from our own world.
@@thewerewolff7248 Yeah I just didn't wanted to get too much into the lore because it would be a whole bible and it's a lot for newcomers
Bethesda was heavily involved with the making of this show, and Bethesda's game director, Todd Howard, was an executive producer. They have said this show is canon to the games and takes place 9 years after Fallout 4. (The latest Fallout game in sequence) It's an original story that happens to take place in the Fallout universe.
The location of the show is the same as Fallout 1 and 2, but many decades later. So there are references and Easter eggs to those games all throughout the season, without directly crossing over with the stories from those games.
Such a great show, enjoy the ride!
The transistor was definitely invented. It's a weirdly prolific misconception, as there's no cited source saying they weren't invented. Transistors are really the only way computers the size of a Pip Boy can work. Technological progress just took a different route. The people in Fallout would claim our nuclear technology is as primitive to them as their computers are to us.
The big divergence is just that nuclear energy use skyrocketed, becoming "safe" for consumer use. As opposed to the information and communication boom that happened in real life. Electronics just didn't become miniaturised quickly, so the state of computers in 2077 is like a mash of 60s through 80s era tech.
The transistor exists its just was not as widely embraced.
When that little girl asked “is it your thumb or mine?” I got chills. Absolutely haunting. That kid killed it. The whole intro was chilling and tense.
😂
@@getspun6961 ? got anything more than being a dick on the internet?
Terrific scene! I loved it.
She was terrific.
Clown 😂@@getspun6961
"That's dark."
That's Fallout, baby.
Walton Goggins is amazing! He steals every scene he is in!
Walton*
An amazing series that Goggins worked on previously, The Shield, is one of the best police dramas ever made, and absolutely no one reacts to it. Most definitely worth a watch by these fellas if they're looking for a good new series to check out.
Fallout is also alternate history. The bombs dropped in 2077, the aesthetic is 50’s Americana retrofuturism
Not retrofuturism just 50s futurism big difference
@@drewwar9344 how is it not retro futurism? Retro futurism just means something that’s futuristic and has qualities/aesthetic from the past.
It's futurism from the perspective of the 50s.
Feels very cool to have you guys react to a show I worked on. I hope you guys enjoy. A lot of people in NYC worked very hard and it’s awesome to see the recognition. When yal react to something it feels more legit.
Dope! Can you relay how much of it is practical?
Will Ron Perlman be in season 2 somehow?
@@seismic6435 Most of it honestly!
The domestic abuse origin for Rule of Thumb is false. In the 1970s some one used the phrase in reference to some old english judges stance on abuse, just using it as a figure of speech, and people thought they were implying that was the origin and that belief just spread. The actual origin was in the 1600s and just meant using your thumb as a ruler, meaning estimating or approximating instead of actually measuring.
Huh, TIL. Always "knew" that one from the opening of Boondock Saints.
So I was half right. Good to know.
In Spanish, the word for inch and thumb are almost the same.
Thanks for that info!
Jonathan Nolan was actually a huge fan of Fallout before this got made, apparently he played through Fallout 4 with his wife and used it as inspiration when filming Westworld
THE best video game adaptation EVER. Hoping all the praise gives studios reason to do things right in the future (more Fallout, less Witcher/RE)
i give it a 16x out of 10!!!
tbh, Witcher is not game adaptation. Its book adaptation and should be. Its only a shame, that witcher series went with books in S1 and then threw perfect story out of the window in favor of xena warrior princess level of storytelling. Its super disgraceful what they have done to witcher series from script perspective. The story is literally READY to be adapted. There is only stuff they could add on top of it and they left like 10% of original plot and were suprised all the relations between characters soon started to not work like they supposed to. They fumbled it hard and im still fuming over it
Did literally everyone forget about TLOU? Am I in the Twilight Zone?
@@DLA. great series as well but let’s remember tlou is a true adaptation. fallout is a NEW story and new cannon added to the fallout universe.
@@RyanLBCthat’s not what he said. he said “best video game adaptation EVER”. what is the point you’re trying to make in this context? also, TLOU show took some major liberties and risks that debatably exempts it from being a *true* adaptation.
The first two Fallout games were developed by a company called Black Isle. Both were isometric CRPGs set in the western US. That company folded leading to Bethesda buying the rights to Fallout. They made Fallout 3 as a First/Third person, open world, action RPG set in the eastern US. People from Black Isle later joined a company called Obsidian and ended up making Fallout New Vegas (yes Hector, it is one of the most beloved of the series). So while Tod Howard's name and the Bethesda logo both appear in the credits, most of the story and lore come from before those folks got involved. Though many of the visual and game play inspired elements are pulled from Fallout 3 and 4. So it's this interesting mixture of things from throughout the history of the games.
You mean Interplay* not Black Isle, put some RESPECCK on the name!! 😉
Interplay did FO1, Black Isle did Fallout 2
Re: The Ghoul, the guys digging him up were saying that he’s a bounty hunter and Don Pedro (who they shot with the baby doll leg) kept him in the ground but would dig him up once a year to cut pieces off of him. The main grave digger also mentioned his dad worked with him (presumably his dad was a bounty hunter too).
I doubt Don Pedro would be guarding the grave himself. He's probably somewhere surrounded by an army. The threat the bounty hunter made to the Ghoul confirmed Don Pedro is still around
Very unlikely that don Pedro himself would be guarding anything like that. The title of don means he’s the boss so he definitely wouldn’t be doing guard work like that, that’s what his grunts are for.
I think that this particular game series lends itself well to adaptation because, historically, each game is a new story set within the world of Fallout. Even the dog is not the same dog in every game. The main character is sometimes a recurring character, but is also often a whole new one. So this is just a new story set in the world of Fallout, and the fact that we have new characters with different yet similar backgrounds doesn't change the game that players already know.
Yall recognizing Norm as the kid from Nacho Libre and not Rico from Hannah Montana is so funny to me 😂
I played since Fallout 1 and it got the vibes while being its own thing
Well it does take place in the fallout lore as canon. It's after fallout 4
The war had been raging for 10 years before the nukes fell so a lot of vaults and bunkers were built
Rule of thumb comes from measuring with your thumb.
thats one of two possible origins of the phrase, hes actually right that the "rule of thumb" has been used in actual law as the standard to judge if a man was being TOO abusive to his wife by hitting her with a stick that was thicker than his thumb. Its referenced in at least two cases in North Carolina in the USA as a historical legal defense in like 1917 and was attributed to like the 15th century, but most people who study the history of law think it was actually probably invented wholesale in the 19th century to make it seem like male abusers of the past were worse than current male abusers. So its "historical" but just not as old as most people think.
@@100Companions There's that, first time I remember it is in woodworking... tuck your thumb under when using a saw so you don't lose it.
@@100CompanionsExplain how its one of 2 possible origins when one is literally hundreds of years earlier than the other?
Hector's face at "Cousins stuff.." lol. All of us at that moment lol
they mentioned in the episode the ghoul was being kept underground by someone named "dom pedro" who has been getting him out once a year to "cut pieces off of him". Honcho's dialogue suggests the ghoul may have first been put there by pedro 30 years ago since he threatens him with putting him back so Pedro can keep torturing him for "the next 30 years" which sorta implies he may have been there that long already. Regardless it is likely the ghoul did something to cross pedro and the whole thing was a way to torture/ punish him for it.
"Don" It's a title usually granted to older/respected men.
@@Tattle-by-Tale Yes, Don is the title, but the closed captions on Amazon actually have Honcho saying "Dom". I thought that was curious. Now it could just be that Honcho isn't the brightest bulb.
In army basic training they taught us that in the event of a nuclear strike near you to:
1) not look at the flash
2) pile up gear in front of you quickly
3) lay face down head/helmet towards the blast
4) when shock wave passes over find something to protect you from falling debris
5) get away from blast location while using some form of face protection (gas mask preferably)
The thumb thing, if it was in our timeline, was a long time ago
Fun fact about the thumb thing, not a real thing. There's Plenty of bombs that will be safe even if it's way bigger than your thumb, it's not a reliable rule
But also, nukes in fallout do not function like real nukes, they are designed to cause a fallout, and are less about raw damage, so the rule could absolutely be a reliable thing in this universe. You run for the hills if it's smaller to get away from the rads as much as you can, if it's bigger than it doesn't matter if the blast won't kill you, the rads will
Moisés Arias plays Lucy's brother Norm. He was in Enders Game movie.
Hannah Montanna aswell
@@Ugnutzas Rico!
If you go by the actor's ages, Norm (30) is older than Lucy (27).
But then Thaddeus's (in the Brotherhood) actor is 41(!) and looks no older than Lucy, so, not a great measure haha.
"What is this, 1954?" That's actually a pretty apt description of the Brotherhood of Steel's hierarchy. A 1950s High School.
It’s great that they explore the Fallout world from the points of view of different survivors, Vault dwellers, surface dwellers, and wastelands dweller (ghouls).
This show is f--king years insane!
Please enjoy 😁
I have spent hundreds of hours playing the Fallout games, and this show makes me feel like I am right back in the wasteland. It was almost shocking how well they nailed the world and the aesthetic and the tone of the games. It makes me so happy to see a whole new crop of fans coming to the world. The games are such wonderful sci-fi. Its also shameless nostalgia bait for the decade in America where its arguable that we were at our peak in. 50s designs and ideals blast 120 years into the future and nuclear powered, rising cold war tensions and all.
the shelter the guy was getting into at the start is a home fallout shelter not a vault. It Wouldn't have enough supplies for "everyone you know". Just your household.
Yeah no shit 😂
There was plenty of room in his shelter to drag more meat down
For reference, the main idea of the Fallout tech is what would happen if the Semiconductor was never invented.
Yes, and research was put into nuclear technology instead.
I have been waiting for someone else to realize how AWESOME that girl is. She truly looks panicked (Also afair the Fallout universe bombs were still relatively small and very dirty, they never made the switch away from the Hiroshima style bombs, hence the need for more than one to take out a place like LA).
Also Ella Purnell, who is Lucy, voiced Jinx from Arcane.
Yup!
Really enjoying the show and your reaction. The dark humor is perfect. I think the wholesome 50s gee golly vibe while the most terrible things are happening adds to its appeal so much
The Fallout universe is an alternative timeline kind of thing. Starting back in the 1950s and all the way to 2077-‐> 2296. The show is official canon. Its the furthest in the future the series has gone but the lore of the games line up with this series.
The games have various levels of quality in story but some of them have a really fun main story. The show is imo one of the best video game adaptations ever. As good as if not better than The Last Of Us on HBO. Glad yall enjoyed this first episode! Cannot wait to see your reactions to the rest of them!
Don't stoop this down to last of us 😂 this was amazing.
As someone who has played all the Fallout games and I’m a huge fan, I have to commend the show for capturing the post-apocalyptic retro-futuristic world of Fallout, along with the dark humor and just wacky items from the game. I’m so excited for season 2. I think Fallout is a tough game to capture in a show like this and in my opinion they have exceeded expectations
Another show where the upload schedule is just "yeah, maybe , whenever..." . 😂😂
i still have this show on my list to watch but as for what i AM watching that’s great: SHŌGUN. you guys are definitely missing out if you haven’t seen it.
He was right Moises Arias is the kid from Nacho Libre, his most well known role though is as a side character in Hannah Montana.
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRICOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
As a long time Fallout fan, Hector is so right about fans loving Fallout because of the tone, the world building and the little quirks that make the games what they are - and not necessarily the plot of the game. Of course, the lore is important, but replaying the games has shown me just how much I get absorbed into the world without necessarily getting super invested in the actual plot. Which is why I think this show is so good - they’ve really done so well with just building out the world as it is and incorporating new characters and how they fit into the pre existing canon. Excited to see your reactions to the rest of the season 😁
We are going to a very special place!
In terms of Walton Goggin’s incredible acting, one of the earliest things I found him in was in Tarantino’s “the Hateful Eight,” a movie he steals the show in alongside everyone else’s incredible performances. Plus it gives a bonus for Goggin’s accent since so many of his lines are quotable
I’m sorry!? Did Hector just make a Yellowjackets reference with that Christina Ricci bit?!?! Hell yeah!
Hector had me there for a second.
About 10 seconds into his Fallout games history I was like, "Wait, what the fuck?"
I am loving watching reactions of people who know nothing or very little about Fallout. It is fun to see people discover this unique setting.
I’m so happy you guys are reacting to this show! I love seeing reactions from people who don’t know the games similar to when you guys watched last of us
In the last part, the weapon is from the games. It’s called the Junk Jet. You literally shoot all the random junk you come across with it. Also, the dog with the Target is a reference to the dog companions you can recruit in Fallout 3 & 4. You’re in for quite a ride! One more thing: for both The Last of Us and Fallout the game studio and game devs were directly involved in the production from the start. That makes a difference.
Except fallout was actually a really good adaptation.
@@Jdawg319 I'm curious - what makes you imply that The Last of Us wasn't?
Actually you had the chance to get a dog on 1st game and find the parts to assemble a cyborg dog on second game
I just finished this series today i just hope you "non-fallout non-gamers" have as much fun has i did :D this one was amazing!
Walton gave an interview where he said the door is a prop, not CGI.
Huge fan of the game since the first one in 1998, and "lore" connoisseur here x)
The genius of this show is that It manages to take the Fallout lore, tone, dark humour, gore, story style and gameplay mechanics that every fan can find himself in it super easily with TONS of game references BUT those are used in such a good way that anyone not knowing the first single thing about Fallout games or the universe has an easy time understanding what's going on, thanks to great writing.
I have LOVED the season (I've watched it all, and I wonder if not releasing it on a weekly basis is a Bethesda request, knowing that Todd Howard (Bethesda director/executive producer, also on the show) wants the games to be enjoyed in full as soon as they possibly can (he was clear on that with the games a few times, he likes it when a Bethesda game is announced and can be played in full as soon as possible after announcement) that's entirely possible.
They absolutely nailed it in all aspects, I can't find anything wrong with it outside of a few nit picks that you can very easily pass over.
Can't wait to see your reaction to the rest of the season, you're in for a ride.
“3 darts is too much!”
I can’t be the only one who cackled at that reference
So glad you guys are reacting to Fallout. I'm one of those who's played all the games so I recognise everything in that world but it's fascinating to see the reactions from people who haven't. In my opinion Nolan did a fantastic job. Most of it is pretty spot on. Can't wait to see what you think as it progresses.
Love that they semi combined the main quest of Fallout 3 and 4
Fallout 3 : Find Dad ( who ran away in this game )
Fallout 4 : Find baby ( who was abducted in this game ).
Fallout 4 has the Prydwen blimp. That's how the Brotherhood arrives
6:00. 😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤ sorry I had to throw this in here when the look of sheer horror and all three of your faces when Lucy was talking about doing cousin stuff was priceless
Rule of thumb was used to judge distance for riflemen back in flintlock days.
Lol at the guy on the left "I'd be getting everybody I know in there!", nice one, you'd then have enough supplies for about week or so.
So the "Biblical" reference about Rule of Thumb being referenced sounds like it might actually be the quote that's used in one of the early scenes of Boondock Saints
as a HUGE Fallout fan, I can't wait to see the rest of your reaction to this!!
I think that we will start seeing more gaming properties being of high quality because back in the day, adaptations were made by older directors that were doing their 'take' on the property but now we have directors and showrunners that grew up as gamers and want to be more faithful. There are more folks in creative places that grew up with gaming so we are likely to see more accurate shows/movies as they are now made by passionate gamers. With Fallout, they have an even better chance since none of the fallout games are really linked that much except by the universe they are set in so as long as you nail the world, you can tell whatever story you want.
the opening sequence of this show, is so fucking good, that the show never gets that high ever
Love watching you guys reactions :) You're in for a treat with this show
As a long time Fallout fan, its kinda cool getting a fresh take here. :) Thanks!
5:20 🎉❤ hey boys, I just wanna say I am glad you guys are watching fallout. at this point, I have watched it several times washed another reaction channels, but yours is the one I was waiting for because you three have such a unique way of commenting and enjoying a show. I was very happy to see you guys watching it. This is going to be spoiler free unless there’s something specific in the, you may have asked about that if I know I can fill you in that will not spoil anything in the future. But you guys are gonna enjoy it by the way the opening with the city in the background and just all three of your were like Yep somethings gonna happen was beautiful
i've played a lot of the games and this series does such a good job in the world building, and give us a lot of easter eggs, not to be overwhelmed, but just enough. Also, you'll see that everything in this world, is grey, there is no good or bad, nor right or wrong
I love watching a show with you dudes, this one is so good too.
Oh, I'm so glad to see you guys doing this. It's such a great show.
hope you guys continue the series!!! would love to see you guys’ reaction :))))
They're all recorded and will be out eventually 👍🏽
Good reaction it is funny that you guys are all over the place lol. Hopefully no one puts any spoilers in. But for the world building everything‘s actually in the future compared to us it’s just an alar timeline where no microchips were built. It’s still tube based like in the 50s. But the future lol.
I have vague memories of a... 48? 72? hour Fallout marathon on Geek & Sundry sponsored by... Soylent?? although that MAY have been a fever dream.
I think this is one of the best ways to do a video game movie/show, have it set within the video game canon but not be the story of one of the games. Have it be its own story written within the grander story. World of Warcraft would do so well as a series like this with this much love put into it. So far they are really nailing the vibe of Fallout.
Also I think Lucy's brother played one of the vilains in Ender's game. The guy he fought in the shower
I love fallout’s Retrofuturism..I’m so glad they used the same songs from the game!
I totally forgot about Nacho Libre until y'all mentioned the young actor's part in it!! Hilarious
It went under the radar on the first viewing but the show has all of these weird little vignettes and encounters just like the games do. There's so many love letter moments.
Without fail, if salad is brought up as an option for food I say “Why can’t we ever have just like a salad?” I can’t believe that was your reference point! lol
The Rule of Thumb is when Thumbankhamen ruled Handgypt.
...well it made me chuckle. ☹
😂
Lucy used a stimpack. It causes accelerated healing. It isn't 100%, but it is extremely useful.😊
Bioshock. Yes, please!
Great pilot,makes you invested in all characters right away :)
Justified reactions would SLAP
I'm glad you guys enjoyed the show!
17:41 that Arnold impression tho 😂😂
Lucy reminds me of that character from the show "New Girl" .... similar look and personality....even their voice and delivery
The red car is a Plymouth XNR concept. Lot of cool cars in the show.
Dark grotesque humor is very much integral part of every fallout game. Weapons like one you saw in the end of this ep is the one that shoots random garbage you have in inventory at high velocity - hence you can blow up enemies heads with doll, teddy bear parts in the rythm of 50s joyful music playing the radio. Thats the fallout vibe xD
I think you guys will love this show, it's funny, heart breaking and incredibly constructed
I love the whole drawn out the Good the Bad and the Ugly intro.
26:06 i see Maximus as a True Believer. here in this episode.
"Run kid go tell somebody"
They already knew about the blight. There was nothing to tell at that point.
FINALLY someone makes the Oakland Raiders joke that’s been in my head 😂
Shocked that you guys haven't indulged in Fallout at all. I am always shocked when anyone my age knows nothing about that world :P It was such a big staple of gaming growing up, both 1 and 2 and later on 3 and NV.
I hope you enjoy the world! It's hella fun and hella sad all the time.
You guys nailed it and it's especially true for this show... focus the first season on character development.
More Fallout episode reactions coming out? Loved the games and the series and it was a fun time watching the reaction of the first episode.
Just as an fyi, the thumb thing is a myth in real life. In real life minimum safe distance is around 500 miles away so the mushroom cloud would be barely even visible from that distance.
That's an old corpse. Cannibals don't just leave the body in a chair and pick from it
🎶It’s cold outside, there’s no kind of atmosphere 🎶
i REALLY wish we could have seen cooper when he found out he was becoming a ghoul. like the early days of the fallout after he survived. of course maybe that would give something away about his family when we'll find out in season 2
So far behind I didn't even think you guys were gonna do this. Hopefully you're doing daily drops
We filmed two last night and won’t be able to record again until Tuesday, but we’ll get them to you as fast as we can. Is that good enough?
The concept is basically atomic power took precedent over oil and fifties culture cemented itself
*pushes up glasses* Point of order, Hector: the "rule of thumb" was not Fallout lore. It's a fan theory that was never confirmed by the games.
Also it's not an actual thing. It's all stuff drummed up by Fallout fans.
You guys are in for a treat with this one. Forget about best video game adaptation (which it is in my opinion), this is up there as one of the best TV shows in my opinion. Enjoy!
Rule of thumb definitely did not come from the nuclear age. It was a measurement.
This show definitely sets the adaptation bar.
