The Road (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=camI8yuoy8U)
The Book of Eli (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kAMUv22y1og)
-
Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gdv5EtZQ6jg)
-
Dead Man's Letters - Wiki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_Man's_Letters) / IMDB (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091759/)
Dr Strangelove (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0057012/?ref_=sr_1) can be mentioned too. The whole absurdness of it all can give you the view of events leading to Fallout.

The Book of Eli (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kAMUv22y1og)
That could (shoulda) become a quest... Only, without invincability while in possession. Just bonuses to all stats.

Hmmm...
I am legend
Escape from Los Angeles :D

After Mad Max'es my fav post-apo movie (because this topic is about that than "falloutish") is Children of Men (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0206634/)
But hey, don't forget about 'zombie post-apo like movies' like for example excellent movie 28 days later (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0289043/) and it's sequel (28 weeks later). Also imho Resident Evil: Apocalypse (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0318627/) and Resident Evil: Extinction (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0432021/) counts in

I once did the same and watched probably 2/3 of these movies when I started working on FOnline myself. :) If you did the same, I'm looking forward to see your game even more.

I watched all of them except for every single episode of those long running TV shows! That would be an overkill ;)
And I read all the books and comics and played video games that inspired them too. I had to! I want to understand how the world of Fallout came to be so I don't do anything stupid (Bethesda wink wink)
