#And the Cooper Vault

[the-irreverend]

This scene demonstrates why I love how Vault-Tec is written as an evil corporation. It's not the usual mustache-twirling, over-the-top villainy you see in other media. It's quiet, subtle, and very realistic, which only serves to make Vault-Tec that much more terrifying.

When Cooper finishes describing how Vault-Tec was responsible for the deaths of countless people, the executive here does two things: a) he makes their deaths about himself (ALL WHILE NOT EVEN ACKNOWLEDGING THEM!), and b) he makes it about "Product Management."

It really emphasizes the theme that corporations like Vault-Tec and the suits who run them at Vault-Tec only care about the company and its products and NOT the people who use them (or are being used by them).

the creators of the fallout show were like ok our three main characters one will be a sheltered everywoman who learns about the horrors of the wasteland, someone really likeable with real depth that the audience will root for. Second we’ll have a guy who’s similarly sheltered but from a different perspective, he’ll be more morally grey and the audience will get the chance to watch him grow. Third let’s just makeup the sickest character ever I’m thinking zombie cowboy

fallout tv series + onion headlines, okey dokey?

This is exactly what I want from a Fallout TV show. Pathetic Brotherhood of Steel characters, a Vault Dweller who kicks ass, a hot ghoul, dubious corporations, and the hint of more New Vegas.

You wanna know how you make such an iconic line that much more impactful?

You have it spoken by someone who's burying her own humanity under a facade of corporate presentability because she believes she can do nothing to save humanity.

By someone who's trying to save her family from a cruel and oppressive system by joining the people who control it, no matter how much she regrets it.

By someone who does utterly terrible things that she regrets, not out of selfish desires, but out of utter hopelessness and desperation caused by the knowledge that she cannot do anything to stop the inevitable.

GOD I LOVE HER CHARACTER SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
