    What the fuck man where the hell did this spring up from? This just started a flame in my heart.

      My hopes have definitely gone up after seeing this trailer. I really hope they don’t pull a Witcher.

    Sweet! Well get a season or two and then they’ll cancel it just like they do all the rest of the fan favorites.

    There’s not enough wackiness in the trailer. Fallout has always had a thin veneer of grimdark with a whole hidden iceberg of goofy bullshit and it was amazing.

    I’m getting huge “missing the point” vibes.

      There are a lot of reasons to not judge it yet. First and foremost, the director/show runner has zero input on the trailer. That’s all the marketing department, and the trailer is designed to get as many eyeballs as possible on the final product. Numerous examples exist of trailers which bared little resemblance to the movie/show/game/whatever.

      Secondly, they buried the lead on the director. Jonathan Nolan did direct much of Westworld. But he also wrote a bunch of award winning films for his brother, Christopher Nolan. Movies like Memento, Interstellar, The Prestige, and Dark Knight. He’s no slouch, and I’ll reserve judgement until I see it.

    I mean it can’t be worse than the Halo show, at least this looks decent from the trailer.

    Can guarantee it’ll be better than getting mauled by a Deathclaw either way.

    Funny, didn’t an earlier version of the trailer say “and the studio behind The Boys and Free 2-day Shipping”?

    Now it says “fast delivery” with an asterisk.

    to me this looks like the most generic “Hollywood trailer” which is unfortunate but understandable.

    TV shows/movies based on games are usually just a cash grab that play on people’s love of the source material, but maybe in wrong we’ll see.

    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.

      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.

    Half the teaser looked really good, half looked incredibly mediocre.

    Clean human skull at the entrance trope? Bit on the nose.

    Idk where it looks great comes from, this looks like the Fallout 76 trailers. So focused on cheesey looking high budget CGI, the colors on the suits look too fresh and vibrant(imo), power armor CGI looks honestly too expressive- not like a hydraulic walking tank.

    Edit: I just clicked the link, I think this is a different version of what I watched, this looks much better
