HBO: "Westworld"...Cancelled After 4 Seasons

A solid Sunday night show is crucial to my enjoyment of life :lol. If the SNF game is trash I can flip over to the show when it starts. Or if the game is good I have something to look forward to on Monday.
 
Not sure if this belongs in a spoiler, but:


We know that robots can't harm humans (yet). But what's stopping humans from harming other humans?

Yep my only question I have from watching as well. I was thinking maybe the "bullets" in the guns dont hurt humans...but what about knives and throwing hands? Choking xyz...
Only real question I have as well.

r/Westworld is :eek with some of the answers and questions people have.

Some interesting things in there. Also, seems like Westworld may be just only one of the parks (like in the original) and could be on an island.

If the buzz after ep 2 is about the same as after ep 1, I wouldn't be surprised to hear HBO is greenlighting season 2 very soon after.
 
I liked a lot of things from the 1st episode. Sooooooo much going on tho damn. Red dead redemption to the fullest. I wanted more Hopkins. I hope and pray they give us snippets of the midevil world and the Roman Empire park like in the OG film. Bitties gonna be on GoT levels if that happens.

One thing I did not like is I felt like they didn't give me much to look forward to. Like I didn't really get invested in the characters, Everything just looked cool. Probably because we haven't REALLY been introduced to human guests yet.
 
Plz no medieval park stuff. That ish is corny. Gimme some kinda dystopian urban cyber punk kinda ish in the future. Id be down for that
 
following in the footsteps of the night of, the remainder of the first season of Westworld will focus on litigation brought about by one of the clients who suffers an injury in the park. the show will explore the flaws of the civil lawsuit system as it plays out when a freshman lawyer is assigned to the case.
 
I mean honestly, I think Westworld would be boring. Like besides sleeping with robot hookers what's so special. Killing a robot? Eh not worth that kinda money
to me it's similar to dudes spending paychecks on a prostitute. wouldn't do it for me.

they kind of highlighted it with the goofy couple shooting the bandits. this world, as experienced by the typical newcomer, is cheesy and i bet Hopkins hates it that way. he wants creativity and realism.

man in black is Newman in Jurassic park? trying to steal secrets for a competitor? or just a sadistic guy?

Now that would be a masterful troll job :lol

Go all the way with it and just have Stone show up with even worse execzma in a cowboy outfit with no boots.

Yeah, I think there's pretty close to zero chance the Westworld folk would venture into anything that even resembles GOT territory. Plus, there are so many other possibilities that it would just be silly to do that. The Roman Empire, Ancient Egypt, Colonial America, the Aztecs, etc. or more futuristic worlds.
 
The sequel to the original film was called Futureworld and they had Roman, medieval, and futuristic settings

Also, for those who aren't already aware, Itchy and Scratchy Land from The Simpsons is a parody of Westworld
 
I read that the creators have already stated there won't be any other "worlds", at least in season one. They did leave the possibility open to exploring one of them in a later season.
 
First episode was pretty cool....sumn is off putting about anything Hopkins to me. Like there's a layer to him we don't see yet or sumn.


I'm intrigued tho...looking fwd to ep.2
