MTSkiBum 1,593 Posted January 7, 2022 https://www.ign.com/articles/fallout-tv-series-begins-production-this-year Amazon Prime Video's adaptation of the Fallout franchise of video games is entering production this year, and its two lead writers have been named, according to reports in Deadline and Variety. It was previously known that Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy (who worked together on HBO's Westworld) would be executive producers, and Variety and Deadline both report that Nolan will direct the first episode of the show. But Nolan and Joy will not be the primary creative leads on the series. Rather, Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner have been attached as showrunners. Robertson-Dworet wrote the screenplays for the superhero movie Captain Marvel and the 2018 Tomb Raider film adaptation. She is also writing a future Star Trek film planned for release in 2023. Wagner is best known as one of the main writers on the sketch comedy series Portlandia and for work on modern sitcoms like The Office, Silicon Valley, and Baskets. Robertson-Dworet brings the science fiction and action/adventure credentials, and Wagner brings the comedy, covering two foundations of the Fallout franchise's narrative style. @mmmmm...beer @crackattack 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MTSkiBum 1,593 Posted January 7, 2022 I think this could be either really good or really bad, it will completely depend on the quality of writers and how much budget they have to work with. The source material is there though, they have the universe built as long as they do not mess it up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Witcher of course, then there is the netflix show based on league of legends. I am outside the target demographic, but supposedly it has had great reviews/popularity. I think times are changing in that regards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crackattack 513 Posted January 7, 2022 I'll give it a go. As said earlier. If done right, it could be great. On a side note. Anyone watching The Boys on Amazon prime? I think that show is pretty good. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cdub100 3,366 Posted January 7, 2022 All of these people push woke garbage in their movies and shows. Why do you think this will be "done right" Westworld woke garbage Captian Marvel woke garbage All the recent star treks have been woke garbage. Portlandia is funny but again very woke. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BeachGuy23 470 Posted March 8 Boardroom baby. Better than the factory floor where you make a living. And people smart with money don’t spend it on jewelry.
