  • Welcome to our first-time watching as we react to the Fallout (2024) show.
    On episode 4 of Fallout we got some fantastic scenes that really showcased the dynamic between The Ghoul and Lucy. We got to see a lot more ghouls during this episode and it was made abundantly clear that The Ghoul desperately needs those vials!
    Fallout (2024) is the gripping new Amazon Prime Video series based on the iconic video game. Starring Ella Purnell, Walton Goggins, and Kyle MacLachlan, with visionary direction by Jonathan Nolan, this adaptation brings the beloved game to life in thrilling fashion.
    Jonathan Nolan did such a great job bringing this world to life. As newcomers we thought the exposition was delivered in a very simple yet effective manner. The cinematography looked absolutely stunning and the set design is truly out of this world. Lucy is such a magnetic character. Her charisma and values create a stark contrast once she ventures into the real world giving us a fresh take on the fish out of water trope.
    Ella Purnell's portrayal of a resilient survivor, Walton Goggins as a cunning antagonist bring depth to this chaotic new world. Jonathan Nolan's direction ensures a cinematic experience, masterfully blending intense drama with the dark humor and iconic elements of the Fallout universe. The show excels in both storytelling and visual spectacle, making it a standout addition to the genre.
    We hope you enjoy our reaction, discussion, commentary and review as we delve into the themes and topics that make this show so enjoyable to us.

      hey guys, another great ep, you go a lifelong fan here....which means ima likely bug the sh!t outta you in the comments with recommendations. lol. So last ep i recommended 'Fringe' (which i still recommended) But also Arcane. I don't know if you guys watched it, but i think i remember you reacting to a trailer or two from League. I've never played it myself. But Arcane was amazing, and actually made me cry like a kid. I think the CG aspect makes you suspend disbelief easier so you just get invested in the story and characters way more than live action so it hit hard af. Its a great time for game to screen adaptations man. But if you've already seen it....then 'Fringe' lol.....or seasons 1 to 5 of Supernatural.
      actually talking of League. Lucys character in this is actually played by the actress who voices Jynx.

    Snip Snip is a medical bot. Originally programmed to help people. That's why he fixes her finger first. He was likely reprogrammed to harvest organs, but the original programming was still there. This kind of thing was common in robots in Fallout universe. People tried to reprogram/hack them for other uses than they were originally intended for.

    • @AretaicGames
      @AretaicGames 29 днів тому +5

      It's also cathartic because it's the last word in a kind of contest between Lucy and The Ghoul in which each is trying to school one the other in morality, starting back in Episode 3: the Golden Rule versus the survivalist ethos of the Wasteland. Lucy got the last word, despite all the "lessons" The Ghoul tried to teach her. (I made a little video about this.)

    The games never actually explain why regular Ghouls turn into Feral ones and the dementia angle was actually something created in a fan-series called Nuka Break, so it's cool they paid homage to it in what's considered canon to Fallout's lore now.
    Also, cool fact I learned; The Ghoul's theme from the show samples the overworld music from Fallout 1 for an area called Necropolis. Wanna guess why it's called that? That's right. It's a settlement of entirely Ghouls headed by the first ghoul we meet in the series, Set.

  • @DaddyDoom

    Roger was turning feral, and feral ghouls are basically manic, fast, cannibal zombies who hunt in packs.
    They come in different forms, from the regular speedy skinny ones, to the bloated and the glowing ones, which are essentially conduits of glowing green radiation who emit powerful blasts.
    Always fun to meet these fellas, specially in dark tunnels or derelict vaults.

    The line he was forced to say, reflects the propaganda that his world was under at the time - that rugged individualism, "one man righting wrongs in the wilderness". Anything that even hinted at collective effort or cooperation for the common good, was suppressed.
    Now that he literally IS one man in the wilderness, he's seeing that line for the bullshit that it was.
    To quote Amos Burton from *The Expanse*:
    "The thing about civilization, is it keeps people civil. If you don't have one, you can't count on the other. People are tribal. The more settled things are, the bigger the tribes can be. Then [disaster] comes and the tribes get small again. Right now, we're a tribe of two."

      Heh, wait until y'all hear the song "Butcher Pete". 😄 It's not in the show, but in Fallout 76. Btw, if you want an authentic in depth storyline of fallout lore. Play Fallout 4. After you've beaten FO4 and like the lore and want to play side-by-side with eachother and with other fallout fans, get Fallout 76. Its not as in depth of storyline as the single player fallout games but it is a multiplayer version of fallout and has an outstanding community of players including myself. PC version is the oldest and has the oldest experienced players so I'd recommend playing on pc if you can. It is available on ps and xbox though.

    Lucy is still learning, but not learning fast enough. Her idea of "doing the right thing" and releasing the ghouls, she didn't consider the consequences. She doesn't understand the process of an intelligent ghoul turning feral. The guy on the couch tried to explain but she forced him to open the last cages. Now they are dead and she almost was too and she had to kill to save her life. Golden rule only works if everyone follows it, now you have to be nice and keep a loaded gun.

    For some context, fans are still debating these ghoul meds because up until this point, the franchise never mentioned meds that could prevent ghouls from turning feral. It was random and uncertain when or if a ghoul would turn. Because of this, people are speculating if the lore has been rewritten or if (and this thought is really interesting) Cooper Howard aka the Ghoul was scammed and became addicted to these drugs in the belief that he needed them to survive.

      That would be interesting and totally in line with rest of the show though... but Roger had bunch of vials too and he was turning. So... Could it be, medicine is addictive and withdraw process (cold turkey phase) could launch process turning them into Feral? Or maybe the medicine is some sort of Vault-tec experiments in some vaults and people manage to reproduce it but don't completely understand its effect and everyone knows what it supposedly to do bit like old 50's tobacco adds where tobacco was marketed as a health product? I can't wait to find out.

The Fallout universe also is not based on one specific place at a specific time, but on various locations separated by thousands of km and so many years.

See the whole "Thou shalt get side tracked by bullshit every time" line as his drugs were broken.

So a whole arm, with intact hand and fingers would be worth more on the medical black market then one with a missing finger. Hence the Ghoul’s description of Lucy at the intercom as a nearly mint female.

    I've been a fallout fan for decades and it is SO interesting, watching someone discover it through the TV show and not the games. It gives such a huge appreciation for what they have done, how well it has translated to TV. It's a joy to watch you both learn how this universe works, it's frequent aggressive switches from jolly, nonchalant weirdness to genuine gut wrenching tragedy or sadness, (and also game mechanics, stims for all your ailments) and just become enamoured by it as you do.
    This universe is incredible, it's worth a wander through.

    There was a teaser of Snip Snip in the end credits of episode 3. These end credits are artistic illustrations each time different and... I think you should include them in your full reactions. I had the same regret with my favorite Tarantino, Kill Bill, (I can't wait for you to react to the 4 Tarantinos that you haven't seen yet by the way, but everything comes in time to those who wait 🙂): the credits Endings are sometimes an important part of the film or episode, which adds new, important elements, and can spark great reactions.
    Anyway, Fallout is a superb work, I enjoy rewatching the episodes with you.
    Love you guys ❤

    Roger at the beginning was already a Ghoul. He was becoming feral because he didn't have anymore vials. When a Ghoul becomes feral it's like what you saw those last few Ghouls acting like that killed the two stoner characters near the end. They just become mindless killing machines.
    Ghouls are extremely lucky survivors who simply don't die when just enough radiation hits them instead of killing them it gave them a mutated appearance inside and out essentially leaving them immortal. Though, mind you they're not exactly mutants themselves. They simply look horrific due to the effects of the radiation from the Fallout. There are actual mutants in the Fallout universe but the show hasn't introduced them yet.
    But yes, the games originally had Ghouls going feral randomly and there was no hard and fast explanation or cure for it. The show is seemingly introducing this drug in the vials they need to take off to hold off becoming feral. There's a few theories and or game and lore moments that kind of contend with the idea but, I think it might just be a retconned idea they're just introducing for the sake of explaining why the Ghoul in the show is so old without succumbing and going feral. It'll probably end up in future games for better or worse.
    Also, there's been a few explorations of the Ghoul condition before in the games. There's a particularly sad side quest in one of the DLC for Fallout 4 that's very good and shows what happens to Ghouls who apparently don't have the vials they need but also don't even understand their condition. It was the entries in a diary of a young woman at an amusement part alongside her co-workers who got stuck there when the bombs fell. A radiation storm blew into the region and blanketed the park with what was left of the Fallout from a bomb going off in a nearby city. For those among them that didn't die they became Ghouls and then one by one they began to become feral.
    The girl left the park eventually on her own exploring settlements of surviving humans near the park and asking all the right questions but finding no answers. In the end, she planned to taker her own life and gave one last sad journal entry about it. It's a stirring part of the DLC and it's just a side quest. Fallout is full of those all over the place in side quests or little bits of lore you'll find from characters in the world and you can either piece together or find clues that detail their last moments.

    To expand on this episodes ending... Lucy was in his position that was in the film... she had the power and he was on the floor... all she had to do is shoot or even walk away to be exactly what he had become... She didn't... Whilst he caved to the pressure of his higher ups in the film... she didn't... she helped him back up and did not shoot him, she instead fought her "higher ups" and maintained her standards. Expanding on the line "I may end up looking like you, but i will never be like you".

    I've said this on another reaction, but with this show: If something doesn't seem to make sense, it's probably something you missed/misunderstood, not a problem with the show. Fixing Lucy's finger is a good example. It's a medical bot reprogrammed to keep their 'stock' in the best condition possible for harvesting. It didn't know she'd be harvested immediately, so it was following its programming.
    That's not normally true, but this show is SO well written, it's best to assume that and think about what that missed thing could be, rather than writing it off as a plot hole or illogical.

    In the pilot it’s described as a triannual trade with vault 32, so I assume the vaults only communicate every 3 years. If the last sign of life in 32 was 2 years prior to now, whatever happened in vault 32 happened a year after their last scheduled communication.

    So all the people locked up in the medical place were all Ghouls. They were just in different stages of going feral. Ghouls can live for a long time. Its just a matter of time before they go feral. Up until this show there hasn't been a serum in any of the games that prolongs the humanity/sanity of Ghouls. So this is a new concept, but I like it.

    In so far as Lucy drinking the radioactive water, there's definitely a lot of risk but also a question of when will she die of dehydration anyway? If that meter is in millisieverts (mS/h) she'd likely just be dead so I assume they're in the older milliroentgens and so just got a dose on the order of maybe 600 mR/h for the water she consumed. That over time would definitely give you radiation sickness but likely not acute radiation sickness and death in hours or days. And a much higher cancer risk. She definitely needs Rad Away (Fallout "magic" radiation fix/reduction)

You just give it a little time." when Lucy MacLean asks "What are you?" in episode 4 and that why the Ghoul and Lucy also can reconnect regrowth nerves and heal there fingers?

They become big, like REALLY big, like extra bodybuilder swole big, they turn this sickly green color, and are basically enraged all the fucking time. The Capital Wasteland is infested with them, especially the Metro DC areas.

    The origins of the ghouls has been subject to change a bit since the early installments of fallout, The prevailing wisdom is that they are a result of radiation, but there’s some outliers cases were some probably radioactive chems (drugs) can create ghouls, there’s also the FEV but outside Harold a ghoul like mutant there’s no real cases of FEV ghoulification, the medicine that the ghouls uses in this show is a new addition to the lore, maybe slows the brain deterioration that some ghouls suffer after a while, some the lucky one presumably don’t need the vials at al but maybe that would change in the future and will be retcon so all non feral ghouls are actually medicated, either way the ghoul is clearly taken other drugs too so is safe to say he’s also an addict and uses drugs to stay in shape to survive in the wasteland so some is his symptoms maybe just withdraw from the drugs.
