Reporter: "Was exploring the source material a waste of time?" They can't even hide how full of themselves they are lmao
That was actually really weird to hear.
"What did you think about of exploring the source material?" It's so easy to ask a question without being disrespectful
@@jackkraken3888 Agreed, such a weird thing to say lol.
That was an offensively bad question
@@E-A-Z-Y fr
What's with the "Was it a waste of time?", what sort of question was that? Why do these journalists hate gaming so much man. What did we do to you?
There's always those types out there that gaming is a waste of time but spend as much hours or more watching reality TV garbage or pointless cringe tiktoks😂
A lot of gaming journalists absolutely hate video games, the industry and gamers.
Which makes you wonder why they chose that job.
He was baiting her into fucking up
@@Plight_ makes sense, it would make a big headline like the snow white one, bc the question was very random and not necessary
It's a good question.
The only thing under Master Chief's helmet, should be another full sized helmet.
Exactly as it is if you noclip into the fighter at the end of CE. Amen.
Exactly
I like the Halo reference. I was irritated by the people who made the Halo TV show, because they insisted they hadn't played the games. And yet, everything in the TV show looks exactly like the games. Almost as if they had used the games to design the suit, the weapons, the enemies etc.
The only reason they claimed not to have played the games, is so they could use it as an excuse to justify why the TV show is so shitty compared to the games. Plausible deniability.
😂😂😂😂😂
I don't understand why people care about the helmet thing. Is there a logical in lore reason why he wouldn't take off his helmet? I haven't played the games since halo 3, so maybe there is a reason? Does he shower with his helmet on, eat food with his helmet on? Like Mandalorian had a reason why they wouldn't take off his helmet other than in significant moments and it made it special. Don't get me wrong, care about what you care about, your taste is your taste, I just don't think it makes any sense why he wouldn't take his helmet off.
I like this lady. She seems quite genuine and just a decent and fun human overall
She's a really incredible actress, her voice work as Jinx on Arcane is very strong, and I loved her on Yellowjackets as well
@@swiftlymurmurs1825omg i cant believe she played jinx too
Okey dokey
it comes across in her acting
It's too bad the Fallout show was nonsensical woke garbage.
The second the "master chief" actor showed his face he was no longer Master Chief.
he became master cheeks
I guess you could say it was the series'... chief mistake.
...I'll leave now. ;)
season 2 was even worse, took them till the last episode to get him back in his suit
What if they had sprinkled in some in-helmet shots a la Ironman ? Or give the character control over how transparent the visor is for certain narrative moments ?
its literally the thumbnail of the show, showing his face, i had a good scoff to myself when i saw that. you can tell they read like one page of source material and went yep, thats good enough lets roll
This is why I have hope for a 40k show with Cavil in creative control
"It's the grim dark, not the grim relationship"
i believe his girlfriend is also working on the show and she's a big 40k fan and fan of video games in general
The. WHAT!?
I know WH40k franchise only barely, but oh boi sign me in!
@@Rafael64_Hol' up. It's made by Amazon, so there's plenty of room for tomfoolery. We'll see if they actually let the guy who knows 40k do his thing.
I’m not even a WH40K player or know anything of the lore. But this might be the way to get me sucked into it 😂
I really like how fast she said no and her expression just shows how genuine she is, also shame on the journalist for even thinking of that question.
not a bad question but he asked it in the most condescending way. "How did that research affected your performance?"
@@SaltyChickenDip Absolutely a shit question, there was nothing genuine or innocent behind it.
The person asking clearly has never made anything in their life they cherish.
@@SaltyChickenDip It was an absolute crap question. Asking if actually indulging and studying the source material was a waste of time because he believes gaming to be trash. She shut him up. Wake up and grow up.
He immediately assumed it was somewhat of a waste too - the question was if it was "*completely* a waste of time, or...?"
She's a great, and underrated actor.
She needs more respect and love in Hollywood
why underrated ? when ?
@@akasha167only thing I know her from is jinx in arcane and she definitely did a stellar job there, not sure if you could say underrated but I haven’t really heard people talk about her performance much so I could see it
I think she might have a brilliant career if she keeps choosing interesting characters like Lucy, Jinx or Jackie, I don't think she's underrated at all, she's just still pretty young and under the radar. Hollywood, indie or international i just hope she has a good future in the industry
Did you know her before fallout serie? She's not underrated, she just began being famous, nothing else
@@fullor9395 yes been following her since
Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar children.
She only just started getting really big since arcane, though I think peculiar children should have got her more respect and roles.
That or yellow jacket, both she excelled in but never really got the big name movie studios talking. I think after fallout they will
Ella Purnell is also the VA of Jinx in Arcane.
I guess she tried LoL ranked to fully understand madness.
real
They called her a madman
Nice one, thanks, man! (not an LoL player, myself, but as a former DotA player I get it just the same)
I'm sure she dived into the Lore not the toxic LoL community. 😂
Underrated comment 😂
These journalists with their leading questions is adorable. Doing research on a film role is literally part of the job my guy
Right? What was that "reporter" expecting her to say? "Yeah, this game made by this HUGE game company that is also involved in the development of this show was boring as fuck. Also full of glitches. Total waste of time."
@@watafumx It'd be honest at least, lol. Not like anything after Brotherhood of Steel has any merit on its own.
@@watafumx would've been based if she said that actually, especially the penultimate part
A far cry from the Disney/Marvel dreck where their writers seem actually proud to have NEVER read a single page from the comics, and are actively discouraged from doing so by the producers.
@@watafumx the game is also just not bad.
She is a good actress who shows respect and love for the material she is working on what more could you want she has now been a pat of 2 of the best video game adaptations ever
Please protect this woman, she's so genuine and pure
The guy who played Master Chief in the tv series and claimed you can't act with your helmet on clearly haven't seen V for Vendetta or Dredd.
that was my thought. there's real adoration for hugo and what he did as V
That's such a weird argument btw, i feel like it should be easier to act with a helmet on...
or yk. The original star wars trilogy?
DARTH FUCKIN VADER?
I see your point and the points of everyone who commented. I would argue that V wasn't the main character and in Dredd you know that's Karl Urban. Master Chief is always under his helmet. You might as well hire a no name who just has the physical size and a voice actor who will be okay never really being in the limelight.
I guess nobody remembers the Sylvester Stallone Dredd. Didn't take long for him to remove the helmet.
Master Chief should've had another helmet on underneath.
Now I need someone to edit the video like this lol
Just like double sunglasses Ken in Barbie the movie. 😂
Or double mask Kakashi
YES. I would have had so much respect for the show if they built up him taking off his helmet like that and then when they cut to his face it's just another helmet or some kind of faceplate lmao
This is actually, technically cannon.
0:19 She should've said, "You have to deeply, deeply respect the source material...especially if you call yourself a journalist" 💀💀
You can think that in your head, but unfortunately as an actress you have to stay professional and not dish it back. Because the journalists will 100% take that argument and run with it.
@@nannerpuss9430 Considering this was a show for Gamers I'm pretty sure mocking the stupid "Waste of time" comment would be considered a win by most people in the audience.
"That was a dumb question, but I'm obligated to put on a smiley face and answer it anyway." vibe.
She's also Jinx from Arcane, I already loved her for years and now I love her even more. Great actress.
Pretty awesome that she's in both one of the best animated video game adaptations & one of the best live action game adaptations.
Omg I love her even more now...
She absolutely slayed Jinx in Arcane! Vocal perfection that brought me to tears more than once. hope she's back for a second season!
To be honest i don't hate the actress. What annoy me is the writing, cgi and lore retconning coming from ignorant producers, writers and Bethesda execs who provide them with their shitty low quality lore that would fit another shitty Fallout 76 game and not a high quality tv series experience.
That's amazing
I love how serious her face got when the jag-off reporter goes "So was that a WASTE of time or what?" referring to doing research and playing the game. She talks more about her playing the game during her Google search interview with Goggins and Maximus's actor. I think she was great as a vault dweller and its great to see an actor mention how important the source material is.
Now if he had asked if it was a waste-land...
she definitely knows whats really going on with gamergate 2 and she knows that the fans are whats important, shes a gamer for sure :)
It's so funny to me how the producers, writers and everyone around that feel like it's a waste of time to play, watch or read the source material.
Like, isn't it a waste of time to watch your movie / series then? Isn't it a waste of time making it?
The Fallout TV show is w@ke anyway, so whatever. XD
@@Moddiebun The Fallout TV show is w@ke anyway, so no, not really. XD
Just when I think she can't be any more perfect...
Her and Cavill together in a film would be awesome.
That is a great idea.
She definitely earned my respect for that
Female henry cavill is real, we have to protect her at all cost for the sake of future generations
PREACH
This is how she will define and boost her career, hands down. And it doesn’t feel like she is appeasing the fans, it feels like she is genuine. Bless her!
for procreation?
its not lmao the show is garbage. theres no way they actually played the game. they said that shady sands got nuked 4 years before NV and vaulttec dropped the first nuke lmao. anyone who says they did a good job is mega coping.
No, absolutely not. Cavill could write the shows because he's so knowledgeable on the games. While it's nice that she has at least played the games, she's still not a gamer. For all we know, they were all forced to play the games.
She really cared voicing Jinx in Arcane too and it showed. She was phenomenal as Jinx.
I didn't know she voiced Jinx. So she's not only so cute that she makes you melt, she's also just a really cool girl that games, cares about lore and the projects she's in. Here's to seeing her in many other projects.
I had no idea. That's insane. Didn't know she wasn't from the US either until this clip. Extremely talented imo to nail both of those roles.
you will be surprised how many actors aren't from the US.

@@Mattfreeman89 Surely you mean the UK?
@@graxxor surely you can't read
Having an likeable actor or actress who respects the franchise the fans love will always have support.
isn't that supposed to be normal, casting people who love the source material.
yet for some reason? every time Hollywood wants to make an adaptation, they look for people who despise the source material.
if I go to Disney and tell them that I'm a writer and I believe Star Wars is a mistake to humankind, they'll definitely hire me.
@@abq4565you don't even need to love the source material , just don't disrespect it . And if they want to be good actors and act well they should definitely research the source material. That's it
She passes the vibe check
They literally could not have casted a better person for this role. She nailed the transition from innocent vault dweller to badass wastelander

0:46 thats an actress that takes her job seriously and respects something with a known background.
Massive respect to her for doing her due diligence she definitely didn't have to play the games, and we should all make sure we support her by watching the series when it comes out
Henry Cavill plays Witcher 3, loves Warhammer, and plays WoW
Robert Pattinson passionate about Final Fantasy 7
and now Ella with her experience with Arcane as Jinx and then her respect for Fallout.
Man! I love these guys
It’s almost as if playing video games can be an enjoyable escape from the mundane and stressful reality for anyone even big shot celebrities! Ha how crazy is that 😂
Or also that knowing the source material can make for much more engaging and believable acting in the video game series genres
The brits always produce quality actors
She made Jinx great too
she is the one.. she is the chosen one..
Ella Purnell is great, I’ve been a fan since Kick Ass and it’s great to see her grow. I hope she gets to be even more successful. She deserves it
You can see disdain on her face after being ask about whether or not it was a waste of time to play the games. Good for her!!! Fucking loved her in the show!!!
Not even a journo would be stupid enough to ask whether reading a book the production is based on was a waste of time. Why do they keep thinking its a good question to ask about videogames.
“That was NOT a waste of time”
“…ma’am, that’s not in the script. You’re supposed to say yes.”
Deeply respecting the source material doesn’t automatically make a show good but it’s definitely one good sign.
Okay now I might check the show out, she's very respectful
So what do you think mate?
The showrunners / actors learning more about and showing respect to the source material and its fans results in a well received adaptation?
*WHO WOULD'VE F*CKING THOUGHT???*
At least Amazon learned something from that one billion dolar garbage called Rings of Power.
The actors yes.
The actual writers?
Bethesda simply is incapable of making a Fallout game without involving the Enclave or the BoS or not shitting on the lore established in New Vegas
@@Shiftinggers The amount of shit they retconned from NV (almost the entire thing) makes it seem like the meme of Bethesda holding a grudge against NV for being more beloved than FO3 (even though it technically sold less) is actually true 😂
@@barahngthey've already said on Twitter that they aren't retconning FNV
@@barahngno they didn’t at all you people must have learning disabilities, no one has retconned New Vegas, that’s literally where the second season will take place.
This is very refreshing to hear an actor say.
and there is my now favorite actress
She kicked ass and acted like she was raised in the world. One of the best female acting I’ve seen this year.
Master cheeks
I mean he’s an actor, he’s acting under the direction of the director who’s directed him to act like that.
Pablo doesn’t have the choice to choose how his actor is written to act like.
They get props for the weapons training they did though with that boot camp.
The Spartans actually were given the books to read as well as other types of source materials but the funny thing is those were provided to them by Xbox halo developers under their own bat and were separate and had nothing to do with paramount.

Respect for her 🙇♂️
She's so sweet, such a good actress too. Her portrayal of Lucy makes me want to see more seasons. I binged the whole season last weekend, I wish the Halo series was this good. From the truth to who dropped the bombs really to the origins of DogMeat and VaultBoy.
ella purnell is such a great actress, i greatly enjoyed fallout.
5 episodes in and i'm extremely surprised at how much i'm enjoying this, they've done an amazing job and for once in the last few years of entertainment, the female lead character isn't a pain in the ass, great actress, great show.
she's also a main leading lady in the other great female led project in recent years, Arcane, she's Jinx.
To bad you losers can't help but sexualize her giving gamers a bad name as usual
as a lore person it really annoys me how it was butchered. theres an entire fallout discord raging at how they fucked up the show
@@Deltoren1 How so beause shady sands being nuked on a contradicting year? There's room for explanation in the next season.
@@Deltoren1 As a Fallout fan equally aware of the lore, I think people are just making a big thing out of nothing. It wasn't 'butchered' by any means. Maybe it wasn't 'exactly' what some people wanted, but that doesn't mean it was bad. Far from it, imo.
Wow what a win for this actress.respects source material and played the game so that she understood where fans are coming from.
this really helps explain why the show was so good. people paid attention to the lore and that attention to detail shows itself in just how good the show was. I love the fallout games and I really enjoyed the show and look forward to more of it. this is a first for me.
Never played Fallout.. love the show and love her. She is awesome.
I just watched the entire season... Man, as a life long Fallout fan, I can honestly say that I'm blown away. My expectations were low given that it was Amazon, but they really SMASHED it with this adaptation. You can tell the producers genuinly cared about matching the tone of the franchise and the writers, designers, and audio team ALL did their research with this one. Can't wait for season 2!
Damn dude. Wow. You're actually completely deluded into the narrative, huh?
Maybe it'll wear off in a few years, like it did with Farce Awokens.
@@anomonyousSo what? if someone can find joy in sometime you don't, then maybe just let them be.

This is why I always copy and screenshot anything I post before posting it nowadays.
@@len2122 So what if they made a product that shits on the lore, retcons pre established lore out of spite, makes a mockery of the fundamental message of the original, delivers a garbage and worse story overall, why should i care that people ruin what i love right?
Then i shall gladly take a fat dump in your food, and i hope i dont see you complaining, after all, if you like this crap of a show, you should also love eating piles of sh1t as well.
Bethesda game studi was involved is why... they were like "no no no we are not gunna let you disrespect our baby"
In a wired interview she actually knew how many vaults in the series there are. So this not actually a marketing thing on her part. She really did the research.
I love that she was excited the first time she got to open a lot box in real life after playing the games!
Perfect portrayal of the Vault Dweller IMO. Major kudos to the show
Reporter: _"Was exploring the source material a waste of time?"_
Sounds like they only want her to answer this question specifically just soo they can get "evidences" on "Why the source material is a waste of time". Only to receive a response that they don't really want...
Journalist really can't hide anymore...
Yeah it’s always double sided questions now. Nothings ever direct and exactly as described. They especially want the interviewee to screw up the wording of their answer so they have a nice clickbait title that supports whatever agenda they want. It was especially noticeable when they interviewed the show runner and he said trying to make everyone happy is waste of time and they completely butchered what he meant by it so the easily manipulated interpreted his response as a stab at the core fanbase when what he really meant was that he wasn’t going to appeal to the joy-haters that live to find everything wrong with anything Fallout post New Vegas. The ones that hoped the show failed for no reason.
Bait questions
Really the only sympathy we should have for celebs is being forced to answer to these absolute cretins in the media.
I hope the Warhammer 40K show gets similar treatment
Watch the full series and I guarantee you'll change your mind.
Henry Cavill is a big Warhammer nerd & he's in charge of it as a producer, so fingers crossed.
The full series was great.
Here's to a hopeful 40k
Theirs a lot of directions to take Warhammer. We could go the typical Warzone route, or get more investigative with an Inquisitor story, we could go Rouge Trader to get a little bit of everything. Warhammer Stories have so much happening that it ranges from War Stories to Comedy and everything in between. Theirs horror stories, crime dramas, suspense, 80’s Action story, WW2 Drama. As long as you get the lore and feeling right you can’t go wrong.
PROPS to her. Look to see her in other stuff coming forward. This passion is what ALL actors (and artists) need to survive and make it far.
W actress, W show.
Fallout kinda nailed it. Arcane nailed it.
LotR failed hard. Halo failed hard. Witcher failed hard. etc etc
Who else loved that her first scene has her going over her SPECIAL stats?
She's in the mobile game now so we know the exact value of her special; I'm now playing 1/2 as her. Awesome that she kinda looks like the female player character too
That would be me, i was giggling and hopping on my seat when i realized that she was going trough her S.P.E.C.I.A.L. stats
I loved the fact that the beginning of the show people are watching a FUCKING NUKE DIRECTLY and they didnt get blinded inmediately screaming in pain for the amount of light it produces.
The difference between this and "weird, weird" is not lost on anyone
I am so glad that she enjoyed this experience. as someone who is in love with Fallout, it is my favorite franchise , I watched the TV show so happy to see everything and to think she enjoyed it the most like I would have makes me like the tv show and her even more.
Weird how respecting beloved source material can make a beloved adaptation
We need more people like her, respect to her work and the respect she gives back.
It's good to see someone relatively new in filming industry that respects the source of the video they are in. I hope she will reach the top of her career.
I really felt this in the show, and the arc one goes through as a new player.
Loved her as Jinx and she was adorable as Lucy in Fallout. Both shows had respect for the source material and the fans and both shows are really good. Go figure, huh?
Her excitement and passion for it is already a W.
This is how good actors will prepare for a movie. Robert De Niro actually drove taxi to prepare for his movie "Taxi Driver" back then
That's why its so good. One of the most successful transitions from game to movie and that's very rare
Utter nonsense literally prove it
Master Chief showing his face was least of HALO TV's problem imo.

Just watched the first ep last night. Its actually pretty good. Loved the way they chose to introduce their characters. Like how Lucy is basically reading her character's sheet in the beginning just like a player double checking his choices before starting their adventure would, or how Maximus is basically introduced as the companion, carrying the loot ect.
Wow. You just reminded me how we all used followers a loot pinatas 😂
Or how somehow the Nuke at the beginning didnt make everyone blind/killed them inmediatelly, or how Ghouls apparently have no consistent lore, or how now Vault tec is the one who dropped the nukes, completely destroying the lore of Fallout, or how SHADY SANDS WAS NUKED WE ARE SUPPOSED TO PRETEND THAT IS CANON.
Or how every single character in the story acts like plot devices whitout any real motivation but "push the story foward"
If you like it i honestly cannot say anything else but God have mercy on your soul.

I don't know why this is shocking to you, Vault Tec having part in that has been fan theory for many many years so why not play around with that idea? It's not a new concept, and it's not a bad one either.
"every single character in the story acts without any real motivation"
Lucy trying to find and save her own father is not enough motivation for you? Norm trying to find out what really happened to Vault 32 and everything surrounding it is not "having real motivation"? The Ghoul's struggle for survival is not enough motivation to do what he does? Brother...
There are things that are definitely worth criticizing in the show, but these two are definitely not it. 💀
They did a fantastic job. The scene when she gets the stimpack, heals up, goes to the armory and grabs the dart gun, it felt like the start of a new game or a dlc like dead money from NV. They stayed true to the spirit of the games, retconned less of the lore than Fallout 4 or 76 did, and told a great fallout story. Not to mention the fantastic set/costume/prop design. And the soundtracks! This was exactly what the IP needed and what Fallout fans have wanted for years. I really hope the success of this show pushes Bethesda to finally give us a Fallout 5, maybe even set on the west coast or New Vegas. The fact that the show honors the lore so well is bound to shape the next Fallout game for the better, and Im really excited to see where it goes.
Just started watching the show, her character is my favorite so far
She's great in the "Fallout" series but the standout was Walton Goggins. He's a hell of an actor.
Can’t deny Boyd Crowder his actions were…
…justified. Alright I’m out.
Absolutely! He nailed it! I love that they dedicated an entire episode to him and his backstory (EP 4). I didn't anticipate to be so drawn into the story of him, his wife and vault tec. Plus I love the way his character evolves when confronted with Lucys good morals
Ah you mean Boyd. The roles fits like an old glove.
He's basically playing a watered down version of Boyd Crowder. I'm OK with this being the baseline, if the character grows in his own way.
I fucking love her
I loved her as Jinx. Incredible
It absolutely shows in her performance. She's been great.
Well this is refreshing and it shows. Her and the ghoul are definitely good actors.
Im so happy this show turned out great. Really gives you hope fir the future of game adaptions
first actress i can actually support. she did her research and went into the rabbit hole of playing the games
Fallout TV is w@ke, so whatever you say, bot. XD
Oh did she? Which ones and how long? Don't believe in PR BS. Do you really believe she has her own PC with Steam on it with Fallout 1&2 and played them through the end and also fiddled with some settings to get those old games running and looking good on modern machines? Do you really believe she played New Vegas with all the DLCs? And so on. I watched the show and it was "ok" it wasn't "meh" and it wasn't "wow", it was "ok". I like her in her role but never will i believe that almost everything she says is more then PR stuff (as every actor does these days).
@@polarstorm5986ok, thats your opinion that its just PR bs and its my opinion that its not just PR bs. who right or wrong? only she knows
@@echo_fyre8680 Greenness of others. ;)
@@polarstorm5986 "Do you really believe she has her own PC" yes most likely a gaming laptop. She's actually ran into problems figuring out how to run this stuff. She did actually play the game before she ever got on set and needed out. This doesn't require PR because in the modern age running a Gaming PC is easier and the average person is more familiar with technology. Soo logically your assumption is too high effort and unrealistic.
As a Star Wars, Halo, and Fallout fan I'm just so grateful that there's finally a decent adaptation to something I love. I have yet to watch it, but I'm only hearing good things, and this interview just sold me.
I think the nice thing about this series is that they weren't trying to write over any game story or concept or plots of he games, but just create a story that included the game ideas. While the issue with Halo is that they basically created a story using all the same concepts, but wrote over the entire story and plot. Side note that removing the Helmet of the Master Chief in a game and showing his face was part of the experience that made you Master Chief. If they showed his face it means that you weren't Master Chief and that you didn't save the universe from both the flood, covenant, or the Forerunners.
Loved her in the show. Honestly can't believe she played the games too. See this is what happens when you research about the source material you are trying to adapt.
Well from people that know fallout lore the TV show is trash and crapped all over the lore... so maybe she didn't do such a good job...
@@thomgizziz HUH, you are insane. The show is rated so fucking high because it did NOT shit on the lore
@@thomgizzizthe games already shits o his lore so no much trouble tbh
@@thomgizzizyou talking about Shady Sands? I don't think ot retconned New Vegas, as the TV show happened after the events of NV.
It it sad knowing your efforts in NV don't matter as the city was nuked later on.
If Guardians of the Galaxy proved one thing it's that if the source material is good enough to get an audience in the first place its good enough for the general audience. Yes James Gunn took some liberties with the source material but at know point did it feel like he ignore it
As an avid fan of the GOTG comics, I can tell you that he did more than ‘take creative liberties’ with those characters. Not even Quill is super accurate, his humor is never that proactive in the comics.

Are you sure you know what you are talking about? You sound like the people that said that star trek picard and discovery were great and that you were a huge star trek fan and you don't know much of anything about older trek...
@@thomgizziz It only contradicts New Vegas in very small ways, that's it. Everything else is perfectly lore friendly. Once again, the internet making something out of nothing. The show is solid.
what a queen! Gonna watch the show just because of her!
I watched the first episode yesterday. Impressive show tbh. I like her character. I should say I'm a rare Fallout fan as I enjoy all the games and now this show.
"Was that a complete waste of time?"
No. Talking to you is.
Props for her! 👏👏👏
I've never played fallout, just finished episode 5 of the series.
I realy want to play the game now
This is how it should be. When an actor or writer or whoever takes on a movie or tv show about a book, specific period or historical figure they don't say "Oh I didn't want to learn anything about the time, place or person because I wanted to make it my own". They do the research, and respect the source material. It should be like this for games too, the reason it often isn't is because there is still a stigma around games and they don't take it seriously. In other words, if you can take it seriously enough to take a pay check for it then take it seriously enough to show some respect for the role you have been given.
I don't think it has to do with just gaming. Far too many actors/actresses don't do their homework, aka. study whatever source material it is, in order to give us the best performance they can do. They want to do it their way. Well, maybe they just hate homework too. 😛

@@thomgizziz Yeah but that's on the writers/showrunner. Not the actors.
I love how innocent and out of touch her character is, it's very similar to the Chosen One in Fallout 2
She could've just played Fallout 4 or 76, but I like to think that she also played the older games given her portrayal of the character
She almost certainly didn't play the first 2, maybe 3, and new vegas, but probably just 4. Which is fine.
considering that show is based on "bethesda fallout" I would think she only play relevant bethesda games
@@Veritaserum90 considering that nearly everything in the whole show is west coast stuff from before bethesda was around, I would think she'd play all of them
@@niox1920 Wouldn't mean much cuz Bethesda butchered the west coast. The series has a lot of merits but fuck I hate what they did with the environment, and especially with what they did to Shady Sands and the NCR
@@alloutpotato7939 Did you watch the show?
THIS is the type of person i always hope gets the role when classics are turned into movies! 👏👏👏
The show is sooooo good! Best series I've seen in quite some time!
Just watched the whole season and I can say I wasn’t disappointed
The Fallout TV show is so goddamn good!
Ella has been incredible as the Vault Dweller and her charm is so unique that she steals the screen each scene she’s on just like the Ghoul as well.
It’s in my honest opinion one of the best live action adaptations ever and the passion towards the games shines from it all while being a show that someone with zero knowledge of Fallout universe can enjoy.
This show is something that adaptations should aim to be and Purnell is a perfect example of an actress that wants to bring joy to the fans unlike Halo, Rings of power and so many other adaptations.
I fucking love Ella ❤
Her personality is infectious
Nah. They should definitely not aim to be like this "Fallout" show. They need to do better.
@@Penasta Can you elaborate? I mean, you’re completely entitled to have your opinion and if it’s completely opposite of mine as Fallout fan, I’d like to hear where they’ve gone so wrong that they need to do better in your opinion.
@@Joni_Tarvainen My only major gripe so far is the overall "mood" of the wasteland. I was hoping for more FO3 or NV vibes but im getting more so FO4.I think the Last of Us on HBO did a much better job creating a post-apocalyptic world that felt dangerous as well as bleak. Fallout is much more whimsical and less dark but maybe that was intentional. Still a good show, i can tell they care alot about the source material and wanna do it right.
Every Maximus scene is God awful though
You can just feel the reporter's smug smile slide off his face when she said "it wasn't a waste"
I loved Ella's performance, great lead!
Nice to see some passion instead of woke garbage
The show is literally woke garbage and has no respect for the source material
How does this relate to being woke?
always gotta make it about wokeness huh?
The show is woke garbage however lmao
@Jimbo676-dc4fq
Creatives expressing blatant disregard for source material is common for promotion of media which is percieved as woke.
As Netflix's Witcher has proven, the actor can have all the passion for the project in the world, but woke show runners will still run it into the ground with retcons and just plain old complete lack of understanding of the source material.
I haven't watched Fallout yet. But at least Netflix's Witcher showed us that an actor who knows and appreciates the source material can squeeze blood from a stone for their role, against all the bad scripts in the world.
Cavill tried man, bless his heart.
i dont think wokeness was the problem with the show. Also your main critique of the show being woke tells me what your perception is
Well, Henry was the only one who really had that passion. Maybe the bard guy, that actor seems to be a fan of Warhammer as well and maybe he was a fan of the Witcher games too. But so many people in charge and working on Witcher series could not care less about the franchise or the existing lore and fanbase.
@@mnn3931 It was woke AF and disrespected the source material.
Wow just makes me adore her even more.
I loved the Games so much i Loved the interviews so Much!!!
Doesn't really matter what an actor thinks of the IP, the show writers can still mess it up.
