Fallout TV show is better than Last of Us

- Don't mind female or black lead. Funny that was the exact setup of Twisted Metal, too. And homeboy porked homegirl in that show, too, lmao.
- Trans character...yea, getting well past the point of being sick of them.
- White males all bad guys - extremely common and blatant propaganda plot. IMO it'll be looked back at as a tamer cousin to black face in a few decades.
- All leaders are women or effeminate men - Yup. Every fukking show. I couldn't make it through the latest Fargo because of this and the last points.
- Slooty female lead - This one can go either way. Fionna on Shameless got held accountable for her slootiness, before THAT show went hyper-woke.
- literal obvious Jew character who is smarter than everyone else - LOL. I don't mind Jewish characters. But may as well just hire Larry David, the GOAT.
- communism isn't bad guys they've actually been the good guys the whole time. - This is akin to a show that sympathizes with Nazis. So god damn sick of people trying to justify communism, it's essentially the most dangerous political ideology of the past century and change. Fukkin retards.

yeah and right wingers are falling for it. ridiculous.

I can watch a show that has themes that lean left or right. That takes the piss out of one (or, ideally, both) sides.

Of course, 99% of stuff leans left or far left, at this point. And a lot of those shows lose their function as escapism and become a soapbox the creator is preaching at the audience from. Why bother watching that sorta narcissistic tripe? For example, the Boys is really starting to wear thin.
To wit, if the creator says something in the press dehumanizing anyone who won't blindly adhere to their every extremist ideology, I will absolutely ignore the show, as well.

I don't really have an opinion on Fallout. From the little I've seen it looks to be halfway between that Twisted Metal show from Peacock (which was solid) and the Resident Evil show from Netflix (which was horrible).

It’s on purpose to effeminate men.

Hipster theater kids took over the entire industry. The cigar chomping zoomers and pessimistic Gen Xers made some pretty good music, video games, movies, TV, etc. As millennial and zoomer creators take the reins, things are predominantly shifting to appeal to smug hipster types.

I feel like when I was growing up things were made to be edgy, witty, and badass.
"How much can we get away with?" "How cool can we make this character?" "Wouldn't it be crazy if..."

Now everything is meant to be snarky, quirky, and preachy.
"How do we signal boost nonbinary handicapped Bosnians with this?" "We should sneak in some Marxist theology here!" "She should be an even bigger girlboss! Hashtag yasss, queen!"

I really liked the twisted metal show. It's kind of similar, but imagine if twisted metal had a bigger budget, more rated r violence, better actors, and an hbo esque studio level production (as opposed to the kinda obvious sitcom level value of twisted metal)

Honestly if it wasn't for people on the internet just looking to dissect ever little scene or part for something to be angry about... It's just an enjoyable show to watch. Comedy, violence, good production, and good fallout lore. There really isn't much to complain about unless you want to look for something to complain about.

Well that's good. From the previews it seemed to be in a similar spirit to Twisted Metal. Some of the moments seem kinda like that Resident Evil show on Netflix. (The sex dialogue.)

What I don't get is why HBO doesn't throw a Game of Thrones level budget at a Mortal Kombat show. Could be on the same level as Game of Thrones early seasons with the violence, sex, inter-realm politics, and so on. Season 1 introduces the characters and gives the motivations to fight (IE lots of fatalities of their loved ones), Season 2 is the tournament from MK1, Season 3 is MK2, Seasons 4 and 5 are the invasion of Earth realm, etc.

Sounds way too hnggggg, so we’ll never get it.

Luckily I don't live in a state of constant fragility so seeing a tranny play a minor role in one episode didn't bother me that much.

Although it was really painful looking at the trannys pubic mustache for that few minutes.

Ooh that's who they were talking about. I thought it was a butch lesbian or something. That was a shemale? Meh. The actor or character?

Maybe a little woke, then.

How dare you notice, you are not allowed to notice!
