What a woke video.

#1 It seems to be the 50's.

#2 The people watching TV are unaware of the nuclear flash.

#3 A guy has a fallout shelter and gets his family in, and a black guy tries to get inside with his family and is belted by the white guy. The only thing is though is that was featured in a Twilight Zone episode, where a white family has a fallout shelter, and he won't let the other white families in, during a nuclear scare.

Woke.

I mentioned this game to my 30 yr old children, and they instantly knew the game, the backstory and the game play.

I had never heard of it, and am amazed at popular culture having such influence on my prodigies.

Fallout is a recent production based on a video game. So, yeah....it’s pretty woke.

I think its on Prime...which would also suggest a very woke production.

Aside from those things, it was a pretty fun series. Season two is coming soon.

How about the pressure wave shatters all the glass and doesn’t even make em blink? No heat? No flash? No sound?

Who needs nuclear weapons when you have Karen Bass to destroy LA all by her self.

Season 1 rocked. I fear Season 2 will disappoint. Second seasons often do.

[The people watching TV are unaware of the nuclear flash.]

Way back it was claimed that the wind blast would be about
900mph in speed - The Terminator 2 scene was pretty good
IMHO but even then, that speed could not be simulated outside
of CGI - the bus blown off the highway (and cars) were actual
models blown off by fans (for the shot)

What a cute little girl and a great actress.

But what a cheesy nuclear explosion. No spreading high speed shock wave. No heat.

Here's the reality (closer to the explosion than the house in the video, no doubt).

It is a very good Amazon series based off a beloved video game series.

Quite possibly the most poorly created special FX depiction of a nuclear nuclear explosion.

The more people who pine for nuclear annihilation, the more likely it is to occur. Some people truly are sick.

The series isn’t woke much. The main black character is a doofus. The main female character isn’t a superhero. She’s barely managing to survive. The main white male character is morally gray but the most competent of any character.

It’s a goofy tv series based on a goofy game. I’m a big fan of both.
