What’s poppin, Vault Dwellers? It’s me, MT! And welcome back to the Heavy Spoilers Show! And since this is the Heavy Spoilers show, expect HEAVY HEAVY spoilers coming your way for the new Fallout TV series on Amazon Prime because we GOTTA talk about this wild wasteland ride, man. I truly cannot believe we are living in a Golden Age of actually good video game adaptations. Let’s talk about that super exciting ending together, shall we?
Talk About Ending
Because Viva New Vegas, my dudes and dudettes! Major league gambling is back in town as the final shot of the series shows that heartless corporate bastard Hank McLean fleeing the wrath of consequences by heading to the dangerous playground that is the city of New Vegas…a place that was the main setting of the 2010 video game “Fallout New Vegas”...and it’s a strip of casinos actually located next to actual Las Vegas in the area known as Paradise.

@@GhostCodeClan-ro6zu You will never regret making this comment. Even though it will be tied to you forever.

I'm convinced that Maximus has the idiot savant perk.
Him explaining his rudimentary understanding of how intercourse works would definitely support that hypothesis.
100% convinced they did this on purpose as a deep cut Easter egg for dedicated fans.
Max rank.
@@RedSaint83 Man, was that scene stupid af. I hated it.
Intelligence 1 character for sure.. He seemed like he was actually retarded at times.
I binged all 8 episodes straight last night. Was it perfect? No. Was it a great adaptation? Fuck yes.
8/10 . Fun enjoyable. Oh talk about Easter eggs. Talk about trolling the gamers. "Violin music" took me back to the castle in Fallout 4
It was super fun.. but I wished it cooled down on the pacing - cos it was way too fast. The flashback scenes, the “I’m Roger” scene and the scenes were it slowed down a little were my favourite
It's definitely a 9/10 fucking awesome show!!
@@firstlast9846 the pacing was fine
@matthewflores4183 Nah it was too quick. They should have slowed down.
i feel like Lucy kept failing speech checks throughout the show and it was fuckin hilarious
Well she did give her stats in the beginning. I want to re watch it and write down the stats because i'm sure they line up perfectly.
I feel Maximus had the highest success chance for speech checks, especially in the beginning when they were about to execute him but instead promoted him.. i think it was intentional from the writer's behalf
shes so pretty
Lol. 😂😂😂😂😂
@@Mesopotamian Maximus have the Idiot Savant perk
When the bombs fell during the party, he knew EXACTLY what was going on.
Great writing
i was surprised that he knew but did not get his daughter to safety.
@@tt2778 no place was safe
@@tt2778 he knew it was coming but not when (in theory), more concerning is why the wife let him have custody the day she knew they needed to be in the vault
His wife was willing to nuke the usa and also had no love for dogs so she probably didn't care
@@MrDegan2true that. Definitely a terrible oversight on her part. Maybe we will see more of what happened in season 2.
For all those who have the "Lucys dialogue is weird and awkward sometimes" she's leveling up the charisma, give it time!
Thank you! 😂
But that would fall under speech, of which she said in her list of accomplishments in her interview that she is basically an expert since she teaches classes in the vault. I would make the argument that her charisma is pretty high considering how often she gets herself out of situations through talking even when the people that she's talking to think she's a complete idiot they will still reluctantly give her what she wants even though they could easily just kill her. Like, no one takes her seriously but they'll still end up eventually doing exactly what she tells them to do- on top of the fact that she always gets the truth out of people, that's a high charisma build right there.
I didn’t think it was terribly written, she’s just a naive vault dweller
@@samhescott348i feel like her awkwardness and weirdness makes sense, tbh. Classic fish out of water
@@UbinTimor Exactly this
Who else is hyped when they saw new Vegas strip 😭
I yelled so loud saying vegasssssssss
@@DiscountmakeupDivasame 😂
I was but after seeing the credits where Vegas looks destroyed I’m very worried looks like Bethesda is determined to eradicate anything from the original fallouts (shady sands/the NCR) and New vegas which is just disheartening
Yeah seen Mr houses casino and was like fuck yessssssssssss
bro who else was excited at the exciting part 😭
I think Max being a kid in a fridge is a nod to the kid in a fridge mission.
*desire to sell children into forced slave labor intensifies* 😂
And indiana jones?
New vegas also had that, so I guess Indiana Jones would be the main reference rather than the fallout 4 one.
if you picked the wild wasteland perk in NV you find a fridge with a skelton inside. reminded me of that.
It's definitely a callback to that super annoying escort quest lol.
Casting Michael Rapport as Knight Titus was brilliant. He literally just played himself.
I KNEW THAT WAS HIM
😂
He does know how to play the most hateful, face-punchable characters. It's a talent even if he makes it look easy.
That was the worst character in the entire show
@@kye4216 Michael Rappaport says, "exactly, you're welcone"
I love that with captions on , buds name is “brain-on-a-roomba” 😂
Yep but kind of ruined it by saying the Dr was a snake oilman even though it was sort of.obvious
Bruh, I was like they didn't have Roombas back then. I never played the games but enjoyed the show and am hooked.
🤣🤣🤣
It's a clever way not to reveal immediately who he is
I was reading the Wikipedia and it made me cackle😂😂
@@wickitklown90the bombs drop in 2077, it just looks like 1950’s America. There’s a robot in the house at the kids party but you barely see it, it’s just voiced my Matt Berry so if you know his voice you catch it (he also voices snip snip who attached Lucy’s finger). If they had “helpful” robots they definitely could have had roombas🙂 Either way, it’s just a funny joke name😁
I need that season 2 like next week
Lmao Fr
Nah last week like I'm craving this rn
Need that shii like yesterday. See what new Vegas is up to
Facts like what im suppose to do till season 2 lmao
More like 2 years
Thaddeus hip firing, missing everything, and lamenting that he sucks without a scope (VATS), got a hearty chuckle out of me.
I didn't see it as Hank going to take over New Vegas; I think he was going to Robert House to seek shelter, and I wouldn't be surprised if we find out that canonical ending of FNV was that Mr House won out and is still running the place.
Hank is a more powerful villian than the master, the enclave, the institute and the legion combined!!
@JohnDoe-sl6di I mean yeah, sure, but he's kind of cheating, being from pre-war America, and all. Unfair advantage. 😂 (And yes, I'm being cheeky.)
no way, look at new vegas again, its desert, theres nothing there, i’m like 50% sure theyre gonna start season 2 with hank exploring a dead new vegas and probably finding house dead or in a bad way, struggling to pick up the pieces. maybe the yes man ending is cannon and the theory that yes man would betray the courier and thats why new vegas doesnt look so glamorous anymore
I find it odd they're canonizing an ending (maybe) when Todd asked Nolan to be careful about what he did because it can affect Fallout 5.
@@glockwraith When credits roll there's a scene of a pretty run down strip, and destroyed securitrons, so I wouldn't be too surprised if something has happened to the place either.
Doesn't matter what the show does, I'm looking at it like an alternate timeline from the FO1+2+NV games altogether. It's still a fun watch.
I enjoyed season 1 alot. Walton Goggins as The Ghoul was the standout for me. Also liked Lucy and Maximus.
The New Vegas teaser has me excited for season 2.
Then you're an idiot and you didn't really watch the show
Didn’t like Maximus at first but he really grew on me when they entered Vault 4 as he came out his shell abit.
They handled Lucy really well too. I’ve noticed in todays time if you don’t nail a bad ass female lead correctly the audience will just turn on the whole thing which to me it was done really well.
Such a fun show
@@goofysmp It helps that she wasn't OP and perfect from the start. She went through the "Hero's Journey" where she made mistakes in the beginning and got in trouble more often than not, but was able to grow and develop as the show went on.
@@goofysmp I don't like her at all. I find her extremely annoying. She reminds me of those adorkable female leads we see in every Disney movie. Very badly written and very generic.
@@Oozaru85 Just say you're an incel mate
The 2 headed bear on the NCR flag isnt an enemy, its suppose to represent the 2 big settlements that came together to form the NCR in fallout 2.
True, but it also wouldn't surprise me if at least one two-headed bear had been spotted in the wasteland at some point to help inspire that design. 🐻🐻 Of course, they also could simply be taking inspiration from the many two-headed cows. 🐮🐮
Plus it's a play on the California flag, which is just a one headed bear but the exact same layout.
In New Vegas I kind of thought it was poetic that they had a 2 headed bear on the flag while going against the Legion, which is based on Rome, a nation with an origin 2 brothers raised by a wolf.
So happy to see how Dogmeat was left at the Red Rocket station in this series because in Fallout 4, that's where we get to first meet him ❤️
Yeah but fallout 4 is set before this TV series so the ghoul mentioning the dog as dogmeat and the red rocket station is just a easteregg or something because those timeliness don't match up at all.
@@sky-md8ql Dogmeat is just a recurring name for various dog companions in the series anyways. Best not to look too much into it too much.
@@kwizzehSir, Dogmeat is what Fallout is about, he's the main character, how dare you?
Also, Fallout 4 is Boston/East Coast and this is near Shady Sands/West Coast. 😂
More like fallout new vegas@@RebelCity_
Anyone else get reminded instantly of that Fallout 4 “kid in the fridge” side quest when Kid Max comes out of the fridge after the bombing?
Yes, the quest is based on IJ.
Groaned the second I saw it. Bethesda is literally unable to write something new.
I always thought of the wild wasteland moment in new Vegas, both references to Indiana jones though
Same lmao
Yes!
This show had WAY more hits than misses. The writing and comedy aspects of the show were very weak at points, but all in all they adapted this franchise so much better than many many others before them. I really enjoyed the show, gladly will watch subsequent seasons.
The writing is literally the most important thing in a story...
@@PlantationSensation You're not wrong, but the story of this show provides a lot of intriguing intertwined plotlines. I was at the very least wanting to know the mysteries that were laid out. I am more referring to some of the scenes that leaned more into silly rather than serious. Makes sense in the vein of fallout being a bit whimsical at times, but sometimes scenes that should have been serious were airing on the side of comedy threw me off at points.
10/10 world building. 8/10 story 8/10 acting 10/10 music 20/10 for Easter eggs
@@zzygyy Lucy reacted to her finger getting ripped off like she popped a pimple...she also was playing with a severed head just 1 day after leaving the vault...I think that she could have acted these out a lot better lmao, not to say she did a bad job it was great
@@TheRazorHailidk I think that portrayal of Lucy is very reflective of how our vault dweller characters from the games can immediately go out and slaughter every living thing as soon as we get out the vault so it never really bothered me
Not enough time elapsed for Lucy to be pregnant. It was definitely radiation sickness
The water chip scene made me have a little gamer chuckle. The scene where the goul talks about how you get sidetracked by the wasteland made me laugh so hard. 😂
my dude got so sick of sidequesting😂
Amazon Prime + Wolton Goggins is a winning combination.
Between this, Reacher, The Boys & my favorite Invincible, they’re mounting up the number of series that are my go tos.
I agree but goddamn was the second season of reacher hard to get through. Writing got so corny as it went along
@@sykotic1313I take it for what it is, treat it more like a Saturday morning cartoon where I turn my brain off, reacher always wins, I just wonder how he’s going to get out of the current situation.
@Bman32x yeah I definitely get it and honestly if there is a third season ik damn well ill still watch it. I just couldn't get over the post office scene with the dominant hand thing and it kind of just stuck with me😂
Netflix should be looking over their shoulder because Amazon growing the amount of bangers they for every year
Walter Goggins is great but he will always be Boyd Crowder in my mind lol
I gotta disagree with your prediction - I think Hank is reporting back to Mr House, the only surviving/awake leader from that Vault Tec council. He’s a follower, not a leader. Probably wants help getting revenge on Coop.
Also the reason why he is going back to NewVegas.
Got to wonder which ending they decide to go with in NV for season two. I noticed the battle of hoover dam was missing from the chalkboard so it makes me wonder if house's ending is the cannon ending and the NCR was forced out
You missed the easter egg on the news flash. The rocket circling the earth was the logo for Interplay, the original dev and publisher of Fallout.
YES!!!!!!
I think one of my favorite aspects of the show is that for each important character you can almost see their special stats😂 like the ghoul is just a cowboy build from NV high perception, agility, and endurance. Lucy is an all rounder with a focus on smarts and luck. Her brother is a smart charismatic build. Maximus is a low int high strength build. I absolutely love that aspect.
Cooper definitely has the "bloody mess" and "lead belly" perks to name a few.
Don’t forget the fact that Lucy is starting with low charisma. Boy I almost spit my drink out when she was talking to the supply vendor in Filly 😂
@@ConnectTheKings fax she definitely put some intense training into charisma as she leveled😂💀
There are so many little things like this that could only come from a fan making it
I think Maximus is a high luck build. The head shot on the bear. The ghoul also has cannibal.
Also I JUST remembered that the blonde pregnant lady (forgot her name) came from Vault 31 but we didnt see her prewar so i wonder what role she played in Vault Tec
Idk but she seemed pretty sinister throughout so I'd bet some diabolical shit.
@@longjonsilver1307 She does seem off in many ways. Her going banana's with a fork in her eye, her weird kink with Chet (what was with that scene where she puts a bag of ice in her pants?). She'd make a great villain for later seasons
She looks very young compared to the other people from Vault 31, so I theorize she might have been stuffed inside a cryo pod at a very young age compared to the others.
@@StephaneTheard Actually everyone of them were young when they were frozen. They were woken up at different time periods.. That's why the age difference..
@@RobinSonAr Your are differently not wrong, but what I mean is that she seems way younger than even some of the others at vault 31.
Like she is at least in her mid to late 20’s not only based on her appearance, but also the fact she interacted with people who seem to be around her age range (Lucy) which is why I assume she was frozen when she was still a little girl.
Fun fact the bobble head with its arms crossed in the shop is the same bobble head that was in the collector’s edition of fallout 3
Loved the show. As a lukewarm fan of the games I'm actually excited to play the games again. Can't believe people hated on the show.
Only indoctrinated radicals and skyhigh morons hated on that.
Its just thw Fallout New Vegas fnaboys that hate it specifically NCR fanboys, they are the most toxic fans of fallout
@@ekulerudamuru it's almost like the fallout series has been through 3 major dev studios and numerous writers so no one is going to agree with the direction of the plot.
@@xxmemewizardxxps2902exactly, everyone thinks they know better than the actual current developers of the games how the lore should be
@@xxmemewizardxxps2902 copium
Hank didn't steal Maximus' armor, he took the armor off that headless knight that was lying on the floor
Anyone else felt that 'The Ghoul' in fallout and 'The Man in Black' from Westworld has the same vibe.
I can see that, they both seem similar in a way.
Yes, and they both owe a lot to Randall Flagg (who has many names) from Stephen King's post-apocalyptic _The Stand_ and his _Dark Tower_ series.
Absolutely , and they both have that family tie to it .
When Lucy had been taken captive I was reminded of west world definitely.
Same show runners so makes sense!
A lot questions left unanswered. Cooper Howard doing kids birthday appearances to pay for alimony almost skipped my mind at the end of the season, but yeah, I guessed when he found out what his wife planned he got a divorce, but it's not a sure thing, was never confirmed. And the guy asking for him to pose with a thumbs up for a photo also makes sense now.
Also, starting to think Rose might've been bisexual, or at least that Moldaver was into her. Definitely seemed like they might've had a deeper connection. That'd also explain why Hank MacLean went literally nuclear.
Or females can just be close friends, but you made a LOT OF GREAT POINTS...except that one
@@forthenight3265 nahhhh I think they were a little zesty… from a girl who is also a lil zesty lol
@@pooka4373 what show did y'all watch?
@@forthenight3265moldaver literally holds Rose’s corpse hand while saying “we did it” while dying herself. They were romantically involved.
@@cherry_top so if I hold my best friends corpse and say "we did it" it's not because we just accomplished a mission, but because we were screwing?
15:10 “When that BLACK vault dweller”
I almost spit out my drink
@enlu8084 exactly! As a black man myself, I was like "wow" lol! He could of said "mechanical vault dweller". We know he's BLACK lol
Nowadays you can't assume the color, you know. In the same vein, the rainbow "reference" was ridiculous as well.
Lmao 😂
Lol the guy making this video is black himself. No reason to get offended
@@animeminians7451Trust me I’m not offended. And who cares what the guys skin color is ya snowflake. Was just out of left field and made me laugh lmao. Weird way to describe someone
I now wonder what Mr. House was trying to hide when he covered his vault with concrete.
RIGHT
Trying to hide all the adult holotapes 😂
I'm more blown away that he now in cannon for sure had a hand in causing the bombs to fall. Can't side with that man no more😂
@@longjonsilver1307 i think he would of been if he didnt want too.
Also before the nukes went off didnt he get tipped off by a General?
@@longjonsilver1307I don’t understand why they went that route. Kinda makes FNV seem pointless
Just realized Cooper Howard is practically the actual Pip-Boy.
All this time, the series is following the story of Fallout main character afterall, Pip-Boy.
Mind blown.
Edit: It's VAULT Boy. Pip-Boy is the arm-band device.
It's vault boy not pip boy
@@matthewflores4183 I stand corrected. Thanks.
edit your comment NOW!!!!!!!😂
Really adds some context when he shot the face off the billboard. Ontop of the “no hope” ..theme? Idk the term, that was therefor Lucy.
And he’s got Todd Howard’s last name. There’s no way that’s just a coincidence.
Another Easter Egg that you may have missed is the MK VI Pip-Boy 2000 from Fallout 76 in the window of the shop in Filly.
Pip-boy 2000 is from Fallout 1 and 2
You used a modded pip in NV didn't you!? I think the 2k is from the OG games no?
as someone that has never played the games, but accidentally clicked on the trailer for the series, and instantly wanted to watch it....but then needed to know more abut it, I gotta tell ya, this breakdown is incredible. It's EXACTLY what I was looking for. Nice job, and thank you
Play the games then?
I know Ive been commenting a lot, but I keep remembering things I noticed thanks to this video.
I actually love the parallel plot lines of Norm and Lucy both finding out exactly who their dad is as a person. The difference in approach, but (essentially) coming to the same conclusion is pretty clever, and will put both siblings on a more even playing field once they're reunited. SO well done.
It was power armor of another Brother, whose head was blown off, just before Maximus appeared
I thought this was a riff of when Ollivander gave Harry his wand. 😂
Yeah lol clearly it's the armour that walked into the room on its own
Strange though how Hank just hopped into it while unloading the previous passenger in under a second… I would have preferred a struggle or diversion to take place first
Wasn’t sure the direction it was heading in the first few episodes but it finished beautifully
Missed one: The title "a man and his dog" is a reference to the movie "a boy and his dog", a post apocalyptic movie that was an inspiration to the dev team for fallout.
And Dead Horse is from the tribes of new Canaan.
Also, we see a seemingly super mutant hand from a super mutant on a gerny in the enclave
As a huuuge fallout nerd i loved it,always tought vault tec dropped the first bomb..suttle hints in the games. Now i need season 2
I'm pretty certain the game's own lore goes well and out of its way to never confirm this, I was shocked the show outright confirms it. However, that does not mean these two canons are shared between one another either.
@@VendettaPSC the show is canon lol, the actors said so themselves in an interview.
@@LewisB3217 Actors and actresses are not writers, or producers. Their word doesn't mean a ton to me.
@@VendettaPSC you’re right, it’s not like actors and shows have whole pr teams directing what they can say or anything
@@LewisB3217 Sure. But they're not the authority on the show or it's direction. They're workers on the floor, if you have some word from upper management that agrees with you, then I'd totally concede the point. But you can keep trying if yah want, you're not gonna change my view without that tho. So agree to disagree brotha.
The Vault 21 Mr House Concrete Theory has some backing to it now
I love how Ma June was just casually selling a mini nuke (it's in the display case as Lucy walks in). 😂😂😂
Yeah I was like that’s gonna blow up the whole side of this town 😂
Great breakdown. I note that Noone is talking about the mysterious man who messages Coops wife during the business roundtable. She then pitches the end of the world. I get a very Enclave feel here.
The table in the board room IS the Enclave. Yes.
Mr. House may be a monster, but you gotta give the man some credit, he quite literally prevented Vegas from being obliterated by not just one but multiple detonations…boy it makes you wonder if Vault tech was responsible for that shit too, I mean they had to have known House was there right?
And he only missed 2 warheads since his defense system wasn't completed by the time the bombs fell!
He shot down like 100 nukes
The House always wins!
My assumption is that vault tech launched nukes at China and house shot down the Chinese counter volley
There are people who are saying that chalkboard scene de-canonizes New Vegas but completely chose to ignore the fact the arrow on the board pointed after the year 2277 of the Fall of Shady Sands.
It basically says that the explosion happened after 2277 which puts the total ruining of the city around if not after the events of New Vegas.
I can't believe some fans forgot how arrows work. It is that tiny bit of reading comprehension and a sector of the fanbase immediately came to the conclusion that they tried to retcon New Vegas for some weird reason. I think people were ready to find something latch onto and cry about because overall the show truly captured Fallout in the most neat way possible.
Also the NCR being a ruined or declining state has been hinted at for the longest time within the lore of the games. Just like all governments of the world, they eventually decline.
You want de-canonization? How about war with Russia instead of China?
yeah I think it really because the fallout fandom has a decent number of New Vegas NCR glazers, like sure the NCR comprised other cities too but when your capital city and your government just blows up you think people in the post-apocalypse are gonna be sensible? No! If Washington, DC just blew up today there's not magically gonna be a new fully functional national government, it's gonna be a free-for-all for who takes the mantle
that makes sense as a speculation until you see the final scene .
@@tobiwonkanogy2975of what new Vegas gone?
I’m super upset Matthew Perry passed away a couple years back. Would have LOVED to see him in this series.
Edit: I am definitely dyslexic because when I looked up when he passed I thought it said 2021.
My only real gripe with the series was that gunfight in the hallway in episode 8, the T-60 armour has a flashlight right on the friggin helmet.
What I don't get was why Cooper all of a sudden remember a vulnerability in the T-60 which he never used the first time he encountered Maximus inside one.
@@johnP0908 probably because the show didn’t reveal Cooper’s history with the T-60 armour until later in the series and the show is just as bad with continuity as the games are?
@@johnP0908 He was loading explosive or maybe AP bullets into his gun at the start of the scene so maybe he didn't have access to them during the fight with Maximus?
@@ApparentlyJade If he knew the vulnerability already, he should've at least tried regardless if he had the ammo for it or not. He wasn't even trying to aim in that area specifially when he fought Maximus.
@@jeremyrobinson5887 To be fair he did use an outdated T-45 model. We sure could argue that he probably "forgot" that it's probably the reason for it but IMO, that's just lazy.
It's not like a huge complaint for me, the show is great regardless.
I believe we're gonna open up to the second season seeing Norm opening every pod
Good news: the evil plan is fucked, bad news: army of corporate executives.
That would be smart. If they all woke up at once to face starvation, Overseer Bud might have to open the door.
You evil boy with a computer. Well played. Betty should have probably kept her mouth shut when she spoke to that young man about how dangerous words were.
Was that scene with Thaddeus shooting at Max and Lucy but missing a nod to Pulp Fiction? Cause that looked a lot like Pulp Fiction 😂
@@harrytabb328 or they kill him and just go back in
The refrigerator was a reference to Billy, the child ghoul in FO4. This is the third time I've seen a supposed FO fan comparing it to Indiana Jones.
I didn't have much hope for the show, but seeing Walton in it gave me some small hope. Michael Emerson's character and Cx404 made me pop up and do the DiCaprio finger point meme as it's the same dynamic from Person of Interest. I'd like to think it was an intentional bit, but it was cool anyway, lol. I still have my original CD's and manuals from Fallout 1, and seeing that world made "real" was amazing. The production did an excellent job of adding in the little details and essence of the Fallout universe.
Overall, there's not much I can say negatively about it, there will always be "artistic license" and changes made when adapting something for TV/Movies, and this did a pretty good job of conveying the heart of the Fallout world. I enjoyed that Lucy even with her skills and knowledge wasn't just another "Girl Boss", she got beat up and kicked around a lot, and had to be ruthless and creative to find ways to triumph. One of the few modern female characters that made me think of Ripley from Aliens. During my years in the Army, I encountered MANY "leaders" like Titus, people who we only saluted the rank, not the man. The T-60 armor was awesome, the fact they seem to have made so much of it a "practical" effect instead of totally CGI gave it so much more reality and weight.
As an old geezer who has loved Fallout for a major chunk of my life, I gotta tip my hat to this production, it made me laugh, smile, and brought back many memories of nights spent hunched in front of the monitor navigating the wilds of the fallout world.
Next season should be 10 episodes for better pacing
Agreed, my biggest issue with the show personally was that it feels just a little rushed. We're burning through it quick, there's more time to be had for character.
The Vault 4 plot line took up a lot of time that it didn't have to. It made the last 2 episodes feel rushed imo. It provided a little character development without really furthering the plot.
Mid season finale thing incoming 😅
To be honest it could easily be 12 episodes.
18:56 The bear on the actual Californian flag was the California grizzly bear, which is now extinct. In my headcannon, I think the two-headed bear on the NCR flag went extinct as well.
Not sure about the bear being extinct, the two headed bear isn't a depiction of a creature, it's symbolic of two civilized hubs coming together to form the NCR.
You didnt mention the inactive assaultron that Lucy saw when heading to Santa Monica
After learning about robert house involvement with vault Tec it’s safe to say that siding with him in new Vegas is the bad option
yup
but thats the problems they retconed his chrarter he was never ment to be evil or good he was alaways neutral and would do evil for better ment of new vegas or good if it suits his needs
Two headed bear is symbolism.
they know 2 heads is a thing because of the brahmen, and bears are the fiercest creatures in the waste (also native to california)
mutation also implies evlolution
so, "we are the evolved bear thriving in the wasteland of california" is my interpretation
I always just thought they found a 2 headed bear or found a old cali flag and modified it.
.... great now I want to see a banner with a Deathclaw on it.
I've had this same thought from time to time over the years, too, though you put it much more eloquently than I ever did. 😊
The two headed bear is symbolism of the two groups coming together to form the NCR.
Are you guys doing an episode by episode breakdown?? Just curious
Would be appreciated for those of us who can’t binge the whole season in one sitting but want to see details after each episode 😅❤
15:11 that BLACK vault dweller
The comment I was looking for. What was the point of bringing up his race, and using the word ‘that?’ Even weirder being the commenter is Black himself, but just that phrasing along some other things the commenter said tells me a lot about him… but that’s for another channel.
@@semaisoshulshutup
My theory is what Ulysses said in Lonesome Road was right the Tunnelers would head east looking for new prey. As when we saw Vegas no lights were on.
Oh goodness youre right
That would make sense considering how incredibly hard they are to kill, and the fact that all it takes is one
tunneler to kill a deathclaw.
Excellent review!!! OH, bc you missed mentioning it - the Observation layout is from Fallout 4 right to the point of the cage/cell that Hank is trapped in...
It’s obvious the old white man of the Brotherhood was the guy in the suit that kid Maximus saw right after he got out of the fridge.
If he was he is losing faith that he is a moral man now.
I feel teasing House will have him play a role next season
Thanks so much for the breakdown and all the easter eggs! I got most of them, but not all, so this was great! Also worth noting they show the junk gun in use in the first episode! :) SO stoked for this show, and I look forward to S2!
MT great review of the show! They did show at the end of one of the episodes walton goggins face doing the thumbs up underneath a peeling up vault boy billboard. Look forward to your videos on fallout moving forward!
The representative for big mt is Frederick Sinclair from the dead money dlc of F:NV. Makes sense as he was said to be a big proprietor of their technology using it in the sierra madre e.g holographic technology.
A couple you missed. not sure if they were intentional but the over arching plot of "i gotta find my father" is very FO3 like and the scene with McLean shoving his daughter in the closet gave me serious FO4 vibes of when he the player gets trapped in the cryo tube after losing his wife and son.
Great video, thanks for taking the time to put it together.
Loved the show and will gorge myself on season 2. :)
I reckon the only easter egg was the 101097 code. The rest was just paying attention to detail and faithfully reproducing the games.
Cheers!
I hope we get more matt berry. I love him in what we do in the shadows and this is the only other role I can recall seeing him in. Unfortunately we only have 1 more seasons of shadows so I am hoping I get to see him do a lot more.
The scene were dogmeat goes into the cave and comes running out with a hand is a direct nod to a scene from Akira Kurosawa's "Yokimbo" where our titular hero comes into the town and gangsters and the dog comes running by with a hand in it's mouth.
I enjoyed the little clues they gave in the first episodes for the big reveal.
Everybody knew Moldaver because she was the president of NCR and The Ghoul lost his job as an actor in the first minutes of the show because he spied on Vault Tec
This was an incredibly fun review, Loved it!
One cool detail I noticed at 6 minutes and 33 seconds into the first episode is the 1960 Plymouth xnr concept car
Maximus's injury was more of a bite than a scratch.. lol
I just finished watching the show.And they did such a good job.
The show was great and fallout should be proud of
I noticed the Fancy Lads Snack Cakes that were in the basket Vault 4 gave to Maximus (with the caviar). Also noticed the Fallout 4 theme that plays in Vault 4. And the final sign talking about the cryo chambers mentions "The Tops" which is one of the casinos in New Vegas. Lucy's first gun was a syringer (which is a gun you can find in the games). Later, she ends up with a 10mm pistol (which is the starting pistol in Fallout 4 that you find in Vault 111). There was a tiny mini nuke hanging up in the Vertibird that Maximus flies in. There's a regular mini nuke in Majune's store, too. The fusion core isn't really an Easter egg, but we all know how important those things are in the games. The teddy bears that Dogmeat (4) loves...I found that amusing so much because Dogmeat can be given those teddy bears in Fallout 4 and the dog will play with it. If you leave it in the dog's inventory, it will take the teddy bear out sometimes while it's idle and throw the bear around a bit. :D
Great video! I loved the show and all the little nods to all the games. I also thought the story and characters were interesting while keeping to the Fallout theme.
As a huge Fallout fan of course. I loved every bit of it. So prior to the show dropping last night an hour before that is, I redownloaded Fallout 4. Then after binging all 8 episodes I now have New Vegas redownloading on the pc.
I’ve never played the series, is Fallout 4 a good start after watching the show ??
Halo should take a hint on how to adapt a videogame series.
Dude I'm expecting you to do a breakdown of every episode and you did the whole freaking season I haven't even started yet
One thing to mention is that all of the vault ideas presented by the executives at the meeting were actual vaults explorable in the franchise
I'm curious on what happened to the Enclave too? It definitely explains how Dr. Wilzig knew about Vault 33, if not from Muldaver, but I want to see if they make an appearance in S2 or the Fallout 5
The Doc escaped from an Enclave compound? Also, the board meeting with allt he company heads at Vault tek that coop is spying on, Im pretty sure they're the Enclave.
You missed the sunset sarsaperilla easter egg, the biggest rival of nuka cola in the west coast.
Well I loved the breakdown! Also I loved seeing your face. I miss seeing you at new rockstars man!!
I absolutely loved it. Everything is so true to Fallout! Best show of 2024.
I would love it if yes man took control of new vegas, but it's more likely that either Mrs. House Is still in control cuz otherwise hank doesn't have much of a reason to go there, I could also see it being the NCR which would explain how they were able to grow shady sands so much by alcatuating resources from new vegas, I'm curious to also see if the legion is still around, we didn't rly hear anything about the faction during the first season which makes me think they got wiped out but it would be rly cool to see their faction and attire in live action. ALSO I WANT TO SEE SUM ALIENS!!!!! and hopefully if season one is successful we can see sum more monster in season 2 instead of getting blue balled like sum super mutants and deathclaws
Hank may assume Mrs. House is in charge, as resourceful House was, one might thing he would figure out a way to survive. It's not like he can call House and ask when the communication network was nuked in the great war. well season 2 will answer that.
@@STCatchMeTRACjRoMy head Cannon is that Mr House won but the Mojave got overrun by tunnelers
I noticed two cool things, one is that the radio classical music had very heavy digitizing in its noise hinting at the Institution im guessing. Another thing is that I have a feeling that Maximuses friend from the brotherhood is actually a synth
Whys that?
Completly forgot about synths but nah I feel she just plays people to her benefit
Well made video!!!! Keep up the great work!!!!
Awesome series. Thanks for the Easter Eggs!!!
while looking at the flag with two headed bear ... the music played is the intro music to fallout4 😁
I noticed that! Thought it was a cool touch
This makes me excited for Warhammer 40k coming up on Amazon
Hank didnt take maximus armor, he doesnt even go to battle with it. That armor was the random knight's that walked in without his head. Hence no helmet.
I feel like this video could’ve been twice as long with all the different Easter eggs and references throughout it. Great job narrowing it down.
The poster for A Man and His Dog was a reference to the movie A Boy and his Dog, starring Don Johnson from Miami Vice
FYI for anyone who’s come into this thread blind, this movie was basically the biggest inspiration for the franchise
MT with another great video...keep it goin big bro..
I binged it yesterday and loved it. I've played most of the games and loved the 50's theme and humor like in the games.
Amazing . Fusion cores work too well though Should be a throw line The fusion core Glitch was fixed
How is Moldaver alive? She’s shown in prewar scenes, and she’s still alive and looks the exact same almost 300 years later. Felt like I missed something there and it seemed like a plot hole to me.
She may have been acting two characters.
She froze herself as well. Just like Hank
It is a bit weird since she was in Shady Sands when Lucy was a child, so she must've stuck around for what, at least 15 years after coming out of cryo? Probably also spent a fair bit in Shady Sands beforehand and she don't look ~20 years older from the time she was put in cryo. Oh well, can't spend the whole budget de-aging everyone like they did Kyle MacLachlan.
@@jgogo45 Agreed. If she froze herself too, that would’ve been nice to know. She’s the only thing I have a gripe with. Did she freeze herself too? And how did she become leader of the NCR remnants. Also very confusing on how she got the people of vault 4 to worship her.
@@jgogo45Yeah another comment mention the raiders thing and even I couldn’t come up with a good explanation about why she used these raiders.
It honestly feel like the writers just added the raiders just to make a reference to the games, and her character being from the pre-war times for shock value.
Hopefully by season 2 these plot holes are explained.
This show made me so happy as a fan of the games. I’m upset I didn’t get to see a deathclaw or the enclave but hopefully in season 2
Got let that story build up
Gotta save some of the bigger, scarier mainstays for season 2. I hope for those they use practical effects
I'm hoping for super mutants in season 2.
Bro im with you, I was fucking WAITING to see that damn Deathclaw. Now I gotta wait longer. You did see the Enclave, the board meeting between Coops wife and House and Big MT, those guys are the Enclave, also you seen an Enclave compound when introduced to the Doctor with Dogmeat, he escapes from the Enclave, so while we didn't see any agents in the flesh, they're here and functioning in plain sight for the viewers anyway lol.
I’d like to point out the part where “Sorrel Booker” is introduced. This is a character based off of “Boss Hog” aka Sorrel Booke the actual actor name from the TV show “ The Dukes of Hazard” he even portrayed him. I thought it was a cool Easter egg that apparently no one has caught or realized yet.
I freakin LOVED Fallout. Watched the WatchParty last night on Amazon, and immediately binged it afterwards. Finished the last ep this morning. I am excited for s2 already. Just a lil bit ago Steam recieved a News bulletin for the Fallout4 update coming on April 25th, 2024.
1 recon I cannot let slide is that Mr House had inside knowledge of the bombs dropping.
In NV House states that he calculated that nuclear war was inevitable and planned the defense of Vegas as a result of his calculations.
The canon still fits. He could've made those calculations and began preparations.
He was also the owner of Robco, which was pivotal
Who's to say he didn't weasel his way into vault techs good graces as part of his plan to defend new vegas
@@noturmum7967 then why would he lie to The Courier 200years later about it?
@@mainthrowawaybecause he’s a manipulator?
@@mainthrowaway also remember he didn't trust the government. Him keeping his plans secret is probably what kept others from trying to prevent the nukes the same way he did, wether they'd be successful or not.
Also if you look at the world he's trying to build and the pedestal he puts himself on (despite him claiming the contrary) it makes sense he would use the one physical tactic he can, manipulation. Most people hate the wasteland, and if the guy who wants you working for him claimed he knew the bombs were gonna drop and did nothing to warn folk, some people wouldn't be to obliging.
Smart folk could maybe see reason tho
@@mainthrowawaybro asked why the most conniving character in fallout would lie 💀
