Looks like all the other threads went to archive. Season drops tomorrow at 6pm PST. I'm sure it'll have some shit that annoys me, but I'm looking forward to checking it out.

It would not surprise me if another one of Todd's lore flexes on Obsidian was the non-inclusion of Caesar's Legion, and that their names were blended into the BoS so they could remove another faction from the show to keep things simplified. Or perhaps this faction of the west coast BoS was comprised of former Caesar' Legion folks who fled the Mojave after their defeat at Hoover dam?

Of course the giant cock punch if the former is the case is that no Caesar's Legion means no Johnathan Graham, or at best a highly retconned Johnathan Graham if the show does indeed move to the New Vegas area.

Goggins definitely had the best lines.

Best acting and best delivery too.

As expected.  Dude is always awesome.

Yeah, in my review for the series I posted that it being very good and woke-free was extremely surprising, but Goggins stealing the show was totally expected.

The Legion is a tough one to deal with as it could clash with potential endings of NV.  Legion joining BoS would be illogical given they're brainwashed to eschew all modern technology.

My guess is that area will be a B story, with Hank going to one or more vaults in the area to get assistance. As a Vault-Tec executive, he'd know of the ones in the area, and possibly ones we didn't see in NV.  I can't imagine they'll want to focus a lot on that area.

Which is why I suspect if the show does travel to New Vegas they will do like they did with this season of the show and blatantly kill off one or more of the major factions so they don't have to deal with them. And since the NCR is toast in the show, my guess is they are toast in the Mojave. And so is the Legion most likely. Meaning New Vegas is most likely going to be run by a Mister House style character, who will most likely be VaultTec affiliated, which is why Overseer Dale Cooper went there.

There were exactly two shows I thought were worth watching over the past few years, Walking Dead and Reacher. I didn't need an 85" TV with a $10k sound system to watch these. My computer was just fine. So I think of that as money wasted, just like you might think of a pair of hiking boots as money wasted.

Also “police murder people and get away with it all the time” or something to that effect.

It would also be completely in line with the tone of the games/show for him to get beaned with a golf club and loaded into a soup pot by the fiends living behind the first vault door he knocks on.

runcible's not wrong. While the show doesn't look particularly woke, it's still helping to boil the frog. Sucks too, because stuff like this and the Witcher series, the Lord of the Rings prequels, the Vampire Chronicles, etc.. I would otherwise trip over my own feet running to give them my money.

They did a great job on the visuals and audio of this show. That's not even a reasonable complaint. The bass in this show was more impressive than a lot of recent Disney Atmos releases.

The show looked great. It’s funny how a futuristic post apocalyptic show can look better than a World War II miniseries about airplanes.

He claimed “99.9% of films and tv shows are woke.”

To think that is correct, one would have to be the far-right version of this.

I don’t understand the whole “management vault”plot; are these the original junior executives that have been in stasis? If so, do they each take a turn and then die off? Or are they clones? If this guy is 200 years old and just now starting a family, he’s not gonna go back in the hibernation tank for the next iteration of their master plan, is he?

Overseer Dale Cooper did mention during Lucy's wedding feast that the next generation were going to be the ones to reclaim the surface (implying Lucy's children), so my guess is that the VaultTec executives are expecting to completely thaw out the whole board soon. If I had to guess, the lower ranking execs probably were pegged to "lead" the vaults while the majority are waiting for the surface to be colonized before defrosting.

Then there is Bud, who chose to become a pseudo Robobrain Jr. who will most likely live for centuries like that.
