《西部世界》第二季已定于4月22日回歸。然而，就在該劇播出前，主創團隊宣布了一個特殊的反劇透計劃：與其讓他人劇透，還不如自己來！

該劇制作人發帖稱，只要獲得1000個贊，就放出第二季劇透視頻，結果瞬間收獲4000多個贊，所謂劇透如約而至。不過，這個官方劇透和粉絲想的不太一樣……

The creators of "Westworld" said they have an unusual plan to deal with spoilers -- they were doing it themselves.
《西部世界》的主創們稱，為對付劇透者，他們制定了一個不同尋常的方案，就是自己主動劇透。

Co-creators Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy participated Monday in a Reddit AMA (Ask Me Anything), and Nolan said they greatly enjoy the way fans have rallied around their hit HBO sci-fi drama.
4月9日，這部HBO熱門科幻電視劇的制作人喬納森?諾蘭和麗莎?喬伊在紅迪網發了一個“你問我答貼”，諾蘭稱，劇迷們在紅迪網熱議《西部世界》是他們喜聞樂見的。

But he noted that fans' " 'theories' can actually be spoilers, and the line between the two is confusing."
但他指出，粉絲的“‘解讀’實際上可能是劇透，這兩者的界限十分模糊”。

諾蘭警告劇迷：遠離劇透者！作為劇集主創之一，他很清楚解構與劇透之間的區別，但觀眾未必清楚，惡意劇透可被偽裝成劇情解構。

"It's something we've been thinking about since last season," Nolan wrote. "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)."
諾蘭寫道：“我們從上一季就一直在思考這件事。例如《權游》的粉絲，他們熱議該劇且不泄露部分機密，是因為他們已經知道（第五季的）劇情了。”

The spoiler culture has sparked much discussion among fans, and with social media, it can be difficult to keep most things a secret.
劇透文化引起粉絲熱議，而在社交媒體上，許多事情是很難保密的。

So Nolan said the creative team made a decision.
所以諾蘭稱，主創團隊決定主動出擊。

"We thought about this long and hard, and came to a difficult (and potentially highly controversial) decision," he said. "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."
他說：“我們一直在考慮這件事，并做了一個艱難的（可能極具爭議性的）決定。如果你們同意，我們會上傳一段視頻，內容包含第二季主線劇情（以及反轉），把所有不能說的秘密大大方方說出來。”

He added, "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."
他還說：“這樣，想看劇透的紅迪網用戶就可以提前看，然后他們可以防止其他用戶被劇透，并幫助分辨哪些是‘推測’，哪些是‘劇透’。”

諾蘭稱，只要這個問答貼獲得1000個贊，就放出第二季劇透視頻，結果瞬間收獲4000多個贊。

于是劇透視頻如約而至：

怎么樣，劇透夠不夠有料？

視頻開頭是杰弗里·懷特為他的角色伯納德配旁白，劇情貌似在推進，但一分半鐘后畫風開始突變。

劇中德洛麗絲和克萊門汀的扮演者穿著便裝，彈唱起瑞克·阿斯特利（Rick Astley）的《永不放棄》。

一曲終了，只剩一條狗坐在鋼琴前無所適從。

原來所謂官方劇透不過是諾蘭的整蠱，這個“西部世界式”玩笑騙到你了嗎？
