Westworld

[srjclone]

That was a lot of fun watching the Snake Lady and Hector be brought around on their loop again to shoot up the town and go after the safe. No one knew the first time that she was anybody. And now they have tied in Wyatt as her enemy. Interesting.

After the first episode, I thought that I might get a little tired of the shows set-up because I knew they would have "do-over scenes" where they show different sides of the same storyline or scene, whether it be the same day or a different day but same storyline loop. But the way they have done it so far has been nothing but exceptional. Way more pleasantly surprised than I thought I would be, which is saying something.

Lastnights was crazy town. Everything is unraveling in the park. The showdown between Harris and Hopkins was great, eerie. I am still trying to figure out how Hopkins is able to stop the hosts from doing things with just thought. He had Teddy stop the knife without even a flinch. Is he incorporating this tech into himself?

Can't help but notice that 30 years has now gone to 35 years, Yul is going to come walking through that door.

Harris' quote right after Teddy grabbed the knife was something along the lines of Teddy being a pet, protecting Ford is his duty.

Ford is God in Westworld. I love how he can control everything with his hands.

Last night's episode was good and next week's looks even better.

So much going on. You have a battle of wills between Harris and Hopkins. You have the staff all expirementing with their own ideas. The Arnold issue that seems to plague the software. And there are a couple guests who are in talking a possible takeover on the corporate side. ***** gonna blow up.

I'm all sorts of jacked up for what Maeve is going to have the butcher/doc do to her software. Will he "unhook" her from her loop?

Could very well be. Hes going to need some new shorts though.

Just me? Or was that Logan on the table getting worked on as a robot in the previews?

 

[BoxsterCy]

So what's the deal with hosts not being able to harm guests or is it just not kill them since Logan was getting strangled and then beat up in this episode.

Rewatched the episode tonight. Damn, the acting and cinematography is seriously good, it's good movie level stuff.

What was messed up was that Logan was left behind and betrayed and smirked about it. He's up to something, trying to corrupt his friend.

That smirk and then the smirk cancelling punch was what got me thinking about how much the guests can get hurt.

I think guests can pay more and go to remote areas of the park to take it up a notch (orgies/landing punchies).

Also, it is about time we get some good ol' fashioned HBO sex scenes.

I think they can harm them (like in the first episode Billy/William was in, he got shot and it left a mark but didn't kill him, someone said something to him about it still hurting). I just am guessing they'd never get to the point of killing Logan.

I do wonder, however, if environmental effects can hurt them. If a host had blown up the nitro and Logan or whomever was there, would he have been killed?

Amazing episode last night. Machine Gun Teddy, Ford Family hosts, Maeve tricking the nerds into making her smarter, Elsie getting grabbed. Great stuff.

I second that.

Have to see how they come to a conclusion to this while potentially setting up future seasons.

Did anyone else notice that when Bernard went to the sub-level digging for information there was a Yul-type bot parked against a wall?

YES! I'm glad I wasn't the only person who noticed that. I seriously thought that, that bot was going to come alive because it was "protecting/guarding" what Bernard was looking into. I was on edge that whole scene for some reason. Glad someone else saw it as well.

What's a Yul-type bot?

What's a Yul-type bot?

Orginal Westworld movie. Yul Brenner played the "Gunslinger". A robot that always lost gunfights until he went haywire and started killing guests.
