TV: Westworld S3

[HanSolo]

I mean it's just a trailer but it seems like this plot will be far more straightforward instead of trying to misdirect at every goddamn turn.

I mean I think the first season was just shy of a masterpiece but people figuring out the big twist forced the writers to over do it in Season 2. I mean it had some good episodes but taken as a whole, it was a mess.

1. Is that Marshawn Lynch???
2. Definitely doesn't change my feelings after season 2. Not a show for me.

You can really box yourself in.

M Night isn't a great filmmaker but the pressure of putting twists in every film certainly sped up the process of his decline.

HBO: Lynch has 'substantial role' in 'Westworld'

 

[Desdichado93]

Not impressed by the trailer. Looks like a mix of random (sci-fi action) with the shooting/vehicles flipping.

 

[chicagoskycam]

I quit halfway through season 2 but my god, this looks like an entirely different show.

Aaron Paul is already a great addition to the show.

Good first episode. I agree that Aaron Paul is a great addition.

The GTA version of Uber was a nice touch.

 

[Osprey]

That didn't do much for me, honestly. I wasn't digging the trailers, though, either. The big city setting just doesn't appeal to me a whole lot and feels like other sci-fi. Maybe I'll warm up to it, but I miss what was unique about the show (i.e. the park).

The only scenes that really interested me were Bernard's. I could've used more of him. Come to think of it, I think that that was the case with Season 2, as well.

Make sure that you watch to the end of the credits, since there's a post-credits scene. Also, there's a 5-minute making-of video that's helpful in explaining a few things about the setting and plot.

Didnt really dig Dolores' or Aaron Paul's story, so the episode was kinda meh to me. I really miss season 1

 

[Desdichado93]

Didn't really like most of the episode except for Bernard.

 

[Guardian17]

The episode was ok.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Good first episode. I agree that Aaron Paul is a great addition.

The GTA version of Uber was a nice touch.

I really dug the whole thing. Aaron Paul being stuck in his own loop. The blade runner sort of future.

Evan Rachel Wood is also gorgeous while being a bad ass

 

[tealhockey]

The episode was ok.

I thought this too, but the photography was well done and it kind of feels like a whole new show so I'm interested to see what happens

 

[NyQuil]

They have to set the table for the season.

Nice look to the show.

Funny to see Valencia so prominent - the building where the Delos board meeting was.

The whole AI controlling society by assigning people a social credit score was interesting. Cal realizing that the game is rigged against him, so the only real free will he has is to not play the game at all. Between his personality and his military background, perfect ally for Delores to recruit into her plan to bring down society.

A bit confusing at times. Not helped by the post credits scene and Making Of part after the episode.

Grrr, I didn't stick around.

Grrr, I didn't stick around.

It was Maeve in some sort of WW2 park. Looked like occupied France perhaps.

Ah, ok, I saw that one in the pre-season trailer.

I agree, it's kinda nice to get out of the "west" and into some new territory.

 

[RayP]

I thought it was generic and boring and turned it off maybe 30 minutes into it.

[Jussi]

Ha, Game Of Thrones was Westworld!

 

[Osprey]

I liked that episode much, much better. Unlike the last one, it really felt like Westworld to me. They'll probably go back to Dolores and Caleb next episode, but it was nice to enjoy the episode this week and get assurance that the show can still be what we came to like it for.
