[http://www.youtube.com/user/WaysideCreations#p/c/5E9CAB444A9CECB8 Fallout: Nuka Break] is a [[Fan Film]] series set in the [[Fallout]] Universe. It's made by Wayside Creations, created and written by Zack Frinfrock and co-written by Brian Clevinger of ''[[Eight 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic)|Eight Bit Theater]]'' and ''[[Atomic Robo]]'' fame. Originally just a short film, positive reaction lead to it being revived as a continuing series. [[And the Fandom Rejoiced]].
 
The series stars three protagonists: Twig, a [[Idiot Hero|dim-witted]], overweight Vault Dweller, Scar, a [[Girl With Psycho Weapon|Laser-Rifle-toting]] former Legion slave, and [[Kleptomaniac Hero|Ben]], an amoral ghoul. Together, they try to survive the Mojave Wasteland, and, in Twig's case, search for the perfect "Nuka Break."
Line 23:
* [[Exposed to The Elements]]: Let's just say Scar must go through a lot of sunblock.
* [[Fat and Proud]]: The people of Vault 10.
* [[Hair -Trigger Temper]]: Red, in the movie. She shoots {{spoiler|one of her teammates}} in the face. She later {{spoiler|shoots [[Vic Mignogna|Trader Vic]] when he finds her unconscious at the end of the film}}.
** Scar, too, if Twig's frequent fights with Scar are any indication.
*** Confirmed in Episode 2 where she slugs Ben for being a [[Jerkass]].
Line 41:
* [[Narrator]]: Played by [[Vic Mignogna]] in both the movie and series!
* [[Nice Hat]]: Mayor Conners of Eastwood has a foot tall top hat.
* [[Non -Indicative Name]]: [[The Big Guy|Twig]].
** [[Justified Trope|Justified]] because it came from [[Bad Is Good and Good Is Bad|Vault]] [[Bigger Is Better|10]].
* [[Odd Friendship]]: A chubby Vault-Dweller, a [[Kleptomaniac Hero|kleptomaniac]] ghoul, and a [[Badass Adorable|badass]] former slave. We know how Ben and Twig met Scar, but how Ben and Twig ever hooked up as traveling companions is completely unimaginable.
Line 61:
* [[Trash the Set]]: Not a straight example, but the set Eastwood was filmed in burned down in a recent wildfire[https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/s720x720/293241_923644622218_60716319_40470551_518576408_n.jpg\]. [[Word of God|Aaron Giles]] blamed the [[Fallout New Vegas|fiends]].
** [[Throw It In]]: In Episode 6, Leon Swallow blows the town to smithereens with a Fat Man.
* [[Vitriolic Best Buds]]: Ben and Twig, and Ben and Scar. Ben openly admits he's not too crazy about Twig and openly tries to get him killed, yet is completely willing to give him back-up. Scar is routinely offended by Ben's behavior, often [[What the Hell, Hero?|calling him out]] on such things, to which he does apologize for.
{{quote| Scar: "You're an ass, you know?"<br />
Ben: "I know, sorry." }}
* [[Weapon of Choice]]: Twig uses his .223/5.56 Pistol, you know, [[Fallout New Vegas|That]] [[Blade Runner|Gun]]. Ben uses a [[Shotguns Are Just Better|Hunting Shotgun]] and Scar has her [[Frickin' Laser Beams|Tri-Beam Laser Rifle]].
* [[Webcomic Time]]: A [[Justified Trope|justified]] example. Episode 5 was delayed a week because the VFX guys couldn't finish the big fight scene in the episode fast enough. When it turned out extremely well, they openly admitted on Twitter that they rushed to released the first four episodes and currently Nuka Break now airs once every three weeks instead of every two, giving the effects people more time and the actors the ability to do pick up scenes.
* [[What Could Have Been]]: The last half of season 1 was filmed and then needed to be refilmed when a wildfire destroyed the Eastwood set. Many characters who were give names (like Raz) were intended to have much larger roles in the series... which can't happen now. As a result they trunkated their last half of the season to end at episode 6 (the original intent was 9 for a decent length season) with the above mentioned [[Throw It In]] as their cliff-hanger for season 2, which will be ''nothing'' like the original intention.
