Bad Robot/Jonathan Nolan Bringing "Westworld" to HBO - Part 1

[squeekness]

I'm excited.

 

[Marvolo]

HBO has some of the best trailers. I look forward to them about as much as their shows.

 

[harlequinade]

Fantastic trailer! I'm so psyched about Rinko joining the cast, she is a terrific actress

 

[Deck Rickard]

Oh, nice? Had no idea Rinko was part of the cast. She was the one thing that didn't suck in Pacific Rim.

 

[Sawyer]

Ramin ****ing Djawadi

Ramin ****ing Djawadi

Nope. Not even he could save Pacific Rim.

 

[Sawyer]

Yes, because that's clearly what I was talking about.

 

[Deck Rickard]

LOL, you never know

Westworld Showrunners May Reveal Entire Season 2 Plot to Combat Spoilers

While speaking at the westworld panel at sxsw last month, westworld showrunners jonathan nolan and lisa joy teased that they had a "controversial" plan in order to deal with spoilers, and in a recent reddit ama, nolan and joy have proposed a massive reveal of the entire plot of the upcoming season.

Here's exactly what the westworld showunners said about the proposal on reddit:

hey reddit!
Many thanks for your great questions and thoughts. As i've said before, i've been a member of the reddit community for years (no i'm not going to share my original username...). And i greatly enjoyed watching the friendly folks at this subreddit guess the twists and turns of the season.

It creates a larger problem for us, though, in terms of the way your guesswork is reported online. 'theories' can actually be spoilers, and the line between the two is confusing. It's something we've been thinking about since last season. The fans of game of thrones, for instance, rallied around and protected the secrets of the narrative in part because they already knew those secrets (through season 5).

We thought about this long and hard, and came to a difficult (and potentially highly controversial) decision. If you guys agree, we're going to post a video that lays out the plot (and twists and turns) of season 2. Everything. The whole sordid thing. Up front. That way the members of the community here who want the season spoiled for them can watch ahead, and then protect the rest of the community, and help to distinguish between what's 'theory' and what's spoiler.

It's a new age, and a new world in terms of the relationship between the folks making shows and the community watching them. And trust is a big part of that. We've made our cast part of this decision, and they're fully supportive. We're so excited to be in this with you guys together. So if this post reaches a 1000 upvotes we'll deliver the goods.

Hasta victoria siempre!

Jonah and lisa

There's no way this isn't a gag.

 

[Man in the Suit]

Yeah, Jonah Nolan posted about making a "modest proposition" earlier in the AMA.

 

[Kaleb]

I was always wondering about the Music choices from both of his shows (POI and Westworld(, so I was fortunate enough to have my question answered by Jonathan during his Reddit AMA

 

[Man in the Suit]

His replies about Sean O'Meara are hilarious because he doesn't exist. Nolan and Greg Plageman picked all the music on POI.

Not touchng that just in case it actually is real.

 

[David H.]

I liked that more than the entire first season.

 

[BatLobster]

Brilliance. Don't regret watching that at all. You can tell they're still on a real creative roll, so to speak.

 

[Aximili86]

Haha, man, this whole "spoil the whole season in advance" thing is so ridiculous & unfortunate.

I get why they do it, try to sate the spoiler types and implore them to keep the hell quiet for the rest of the fandom, but still. The fact something like that even needs to happen is pretty sad.

And all it will accomplish is trolls going around deliberately spoiling it for everyone else who actually has patience to wait.

It already started. comingsoon.net has the ending spoiler in the title

Good thing to know, won't be visiting their site any time soon.
