Westworld - speculation and spoilers

Why bother with any other forum?
Forum rules
We once roamed the vast forums of Corona Coming Attractions. Some of us had been around from The Before Times, in the Days of Excelsior, while others of us had only recently begun our trek. When our home became filled with much evil, including the villainous Cannot-Post-in-This-Browser and the dreaded Cannot-Log-In, we flounced away most huffily to this new home away from home. We follow the flag of Jubboiter and talk about movies, life, the universe, and everything, often in a most vulgar fashion. All are welcome here, so long as they do not take offense to our particular idiom.

I've been wanting to watch it but just haven't had the time. Heard great things about it, though, and I've been interested ever since I heard Jonah Nolan was making it. After Person of Interest, I'll watch anything he does.
On December 20, 2019, the Greatest Saga Ever... concludes.

It's intriguing. Ep 6 now - I get the feeling a few big reveals on the way.

Holy shit, wait for Ep. 7. Totally did not see it coming.

Loving this show and it's more laid-back pace of exploring the story. Plus the production values are superb.

Last night found Hopkins is keeping older generation hosts off grid as pets, Maeve got her attitude on and that the company boss is transmitting data somewhere. All lining up nicely. No idea where the MiB and Marsden think they are going.

Ep 7 on Weds here. Hang on, that's tonight!!!

I'm enjoying the show. I knew next to nothing coming into it which makes it all the more tasty.

And yeah, there were some big reveals in the last episode. Hopkins has confirmed that he is the show's number one miscreant. By a large degree I think. His character's disclosure was just as alarming for me as finding the truth out about Bernard.

I am thinking the full on Jurassic Park meltdown won't be entirely his fault though.

I think so too. Arnold's motives are yet to be reveled but I've no doubt they will be sinister. If Arnold exists of course.

"I want you to kill all the hosts - we can't allow Ford to open the park!"

And.....

"Where is Wyatt? He is the only host I am yet to meet."

Well, well, well.

Place your bets now - this season ends where the first act of the movie begins.

OK - guessing the new crazy is Ford's new narrative, and he is also the one who programmed Maeve to think she is escaping of free will. We will see. 35 mins left.

i'm really disliking the acting, and plotting. besides the concept there's not much to it. it's all very 'freshman philosophy student so deep man'. i smell another "lost". another season in and everyone will realize nothing's really ever going to be said.

I don't think it will have the legs to do seven seasons. Once it's done the whole "what is free will and what is programmed?" thing then played a few games of "who is a host?" then gone all Jurassic Park then what is left to do?

Second season can be all the people trapped in the park with all the murderous hosts while Maeve's quest continues.

I'm enjoying it so far. Nice twist in the season finale that you could see coming, but wasn't obvious too soon.

Intriguing question: if you're not sure which characters are hosts, you never really know when an actor's been written out. Although I assume Hopkins being Hopkins, one season was enough for him.

I thought the same thing. Board on his back, make them think he is dead to get them off his back / leave him in peace to live in his park unobserved.
