re: WESTWORLD Seasn 4 *season long discussion thread*

1. I wonder how I would feel if the season had ended in episode 7, MIB walking into the city. All the deeper Delores stuff left for next season. Better ending? Leave on a bang. Not a whimper which leads to…

2. The last poster kinda had the idea too, it feels like Nolan and Joy have one last level of the game to reveal. The maze. First it was a new level to the game searched for by William. Then it was the search for consciousness by the hosts. What if all this time it’s the search for a way to solve the Delos upload of human consciousness problem? Is that what S. 5 is about? Has all of this been a simulation? We still have MIB way in the future from that credit reveal in S2.

3. Some have said this felt like a series finale. My thought is well kinda. I am nervous that the Discovery Channel/HBO merge thing has the show runners worried that WW is gonzo and they added enough to call it a series finale if need be retroactive. That sucks cuz the show is very thought provoking. It just smells it’s own farts sometimes.

4. Damn I never thought a failing robot giving a “I got to see you grow up” moment to a child it never had or knew would give me chills. That was well done. As a dad of 4. Kinda teared up.

5. I would say goodbye Bernard and Maeve but damn. Anybody can come back huh?

6. I know it’s probably not going to happen but I was really hoping for one last Anthony Hopkins cameo.

Anyway. Onto next season. Maybe
