/r/westworld
I can’t seem to find the answer anywhere but I’m really confused about the situation that happens at the end of this episode. Maeve is having a nightmare about herself and her daughter who were captured by Natives. By the end of it, Maeve and her daughter run into a house and prepare for the Native to enter, however we see the Native go past the window but then The Man In Black enters through the door? How is this possible or what is actually going on? My main question is how did The Man In Black end up in the house? And how/why did it change from the Native to MIB?
Any help in understanding would be appreciated! :)
and why
I’m rewatching Westworld and every time I see a scene with Old Bill in it I get SO CURIOUS. The way the actor moves is so robotic yet subtle, it’s amazing. I’m wanting to learn more about the acting and portraying of this character. Does anyone know if there’s any behind the scenes videos about him?
I mean we have MiB and protagonist woman going to a final destination to catch the real puppeteers.
From tone to cinematography to the anachronistic soundtrack to the sci-fi mystery box of it all, Fallout is the most Westworld show since Westworld - and I’m loving it!
The gore is more than Westworld (which I could do without), but the violence and suspense is the same. Nolan & Joy know a modern western and sci-fi mashup better than anyone.
In my mind-cannon, there is some kind of multiverse that exists where “The Ghoul” and “The Man in Black” (OG human) can either team up or fight and chase each other as archenemies.
I can only hope Fallout knocks it out of the park for Amazon in terms of viewership and renews interest in Nolan & Joy. It would be amazing if someone gives them funds to wrap up Westworld the right way.
This vault is not meant for you.
And as someone who loves those games and their overall aesthetic, I am loving the design style of season 3.
I feel like I’m watching an extremely well made, high budget Deus Ex tv show. I’m obviously Westworld is much more than that, but it was just a nice little surprise for me to get that kind of design crossover.
Under an hour away until all 8 episodes of Nolan & Joy's Fallout drop on Amazon. Nolan directed the first 3 episodes so at least watching those tonight!
Haven't played any Fallout games, but looking forward to them getting a landscape to directly explore a theme that was more subtly exposed throughout Westworld: the effects of human nature on the collapse of social order and vice versa.
My life will be incomplete without seeing this series concluded. Knowing the series was cancelled is something that weighs heavy on me to this day 😓
Season 5: The Test
season 5 would be airing right now. It's spring, it's been two years since the previous season aired, and it's right before the Game of Thrones spin-off show starts airing. 🥺
Is there a part of the soundtrack that sounds vaguely like this? Or am I misremembering.
0:15 - 0:25
The show is getting cancelled by HBO BUT with show creator Jonathan Nolan expressing interest in finishing the story. This has happened before with the likes of Brooklyn Nine Nine, Community, etc. (Though some were picked up by other networks, not streaming platforms)
So if we got to choose which streaming platform we'd love to see WestWorld's final season on, where would we want it?
Closure to a well-deserving audience
And now I'm pissed they cancelled the final season.
After a very disappointing season 3, I had skipped on the season 4 till now. But damn! This season is so much more focussed and is an incredible comeback!
Kilter Films Instagram posted this as part of Nolan’s speech on Fallout Berlin’s screening. English is my second language, can anyone understand what he means by “structure didn’t worked for Westworld”?
Random shower thought. We finish Season 5 with an anthology style series a la Love Death Robots (or for the older crowd, the Animatrix). It mostly came to me after realising "Love Death Robots" is a good summation of Westworld, haha
Different animation teams can be explained by different simulations etc., and while they can all be standalone episodes, when watched to completion we get a proper ending/explanation. Different teams have call backs to different series to weave it all together, and dedicated fans can do a supercut putting it all in order.
Ten fifteen-minute epiodes would be a 2.5 hour movie to end the series. Yes it's a bit weird, but might also cut down on set/production costs (I have no idea).
Okay, getting some sleep now. Thoughts?
Humans are still alive, albeit very few still remain and same goes for sentient hosts. I always just assumed Delores doesnt know about calebs daughter and her group living off the grid, which could be representative of other survivors. Like its not such a leap in judgement to say that humanity and the hosts can rebuild.
Whatever happened to Westworld isn't fair IMO. But will there be any tweet from the creators playing clip of William saying "Hello Again" or Robert Ford prompting "Analysis".
The details, the Narratives just fits right in. Even I had the Aah Moment when the Song Video Games Played in 3 Body Problem. Westworld truly deserve an good closure.
