To understand why the show was canceled, it’s interesting to take a look at the ratings.

Yeah normally I’d either not care at all, or prefer to see it made in full, but for Westworld in particular, I’d actually be completely fine with, like, a 2,000-word summary of whatever season 5 would have been.

The last season ended in a way that works as a finale at least. They could continue for one more, but it’s not a terrible place to end it.

I think Nolan and Joy have made some incredible stuff but they really struggle with some bad “mystery box” tendencies. Westworld had some very high highs but it certainly padded it out unnecessarily here and there.

I’d be perfectly okay with Nolan & Joy just telling us what the ending they had in mind was, so everyone (the audience, the cast, the crew) can move on to work and watch other things.

This is a bummer but what would be cool is if Kotaku could be done with Jim Spanfeller, a man who is both an herb and hilariously bad at his job.

reminder that this website sucks:

This doesn’t look like a how-to guide for BG3, does Spanfeller know about this?

“But hey, talking about Madame Web still beats investigating the actual debate over whether Sweeney’s boobs are killing wokeness.”

“Seeing as no one can be normal about her”

It is a bit weird that people are playing hardware-intensive games like Hogwarts, Cyberpunk, Starfield, RDR2, etc, on the Deck. Aside from looking and running poorly, they’ll drain the battery real quick, undermining the whole point of the Deck: portability.

Similarly, a lot of people who are backing her now were screaming about her character in Mandalorian being Woke up until she was fired.

Why is everyone always making such a huge deal out of a poor actor being in a Star War?

It’s rare to see someone with her physique get a role in Hollywood, and rarer still for that role to be something other than the “ugly friend” in a comedy. It was cool seeing a female meathead do the stoic badass with a tragic past thing, because that almost always goes to an Ahnold-type dude. Her character got into a…

Carano is currently suing Disney for wrongful termination and discrimination. Does she have a case? Who knows. The mysteries of the law are beautiful and strange.

Hell, it’s hard to “cancel” someone even if they’ve done really fucked up things. R. Kelly had to be a practicing pedophile for over twenty years. And, more importantly, stop having hits.

In short, they call it “canceling” because they can’t comprehend the idea of consequences.  

She could have had it all. Unlimited Disney dollars, her own spin off show, merchandise, long lines at Cons, bigger and bigger roles. Instead she threw it away for a handful of shitty right wing movies nobody saw and a few pitiful Cons

“Following a years-long controversy that’s currently awaiting litigation against Disney…”

“I’m not a far right loon!” screams the woman who now makes movies with Ben fucking Shapiro.
