Dang, now I want to watch it

The upside of things being bad is that you don’t have to pay attention to them. Think of the time you’ve saved, in life, by movies, TV shows and video games being rubbish, and therefore culturally irrelevant and safely ignored.

In some ways, then, it’s a problem that theFalloutTV show looks good in its latest trailer. You might have to watch it when it releases on Amazon Prime on April 11th.

Here’s the final, official trailer:

Part of the issue is that cast. Can you ever safely ignore something which stars Walton Goggins, Kyle MacLachlan, and has a robot voiced by Matt Berry?

More generally, the trailer is pretty good! I like the dialogue, the production design, the interactions we see between its protagonists, and there is some hint of what exact plot and themes from the game the series might choose to explore.
