Logan doesn't say the name Arnold, but he talked to William about one of the partners who founded the park who killed himself right before the park opened. they have no idea who died: no name, no picture, even with the help of lawyers. William remarks after that "whoever designed this place, you get the feeling they don't think very much of people".  | ||

That the whole "I've created a world [in the park]" thing actually means "I'm remaking literally the entire world, with me as its idle ruler. I have been replacing important people one by one until my creations are truly the rulers of this world, and you all are merely their... guests." | ||

How I see it now: -35 years ago, before the park opened. They are teaching the hosts to dance (strangely enough, we have the exact same shot of the girl walking & smiling in this episode than we had in episode 3 in Ford flashback). For some reasons, Dolores kills everyone and herself (?), and I think Arnold probably asked her to do so in some ways (the Dolores & Bernarnold scenes). This scene will all the corpses and the small village looks really similar to the scene of Wyatt's carnage scene. (I think it inspired Ford's new story) -30 years ago, not long after the park opened. All the scenes with William & Dolores. Something happened in the last 5 years that caused the small village where the hosts where dancing to now be under tons of sands, but we can still see the bell tower (the same bell tower Ford is watching at with the kid host Robert in episode 2) -"now", all the scenes with MiB and Ford, etc. We know ford "dug up some old village", which is the village he was watching at in episode 2. This same village was still under sand when Williams & Dolores was there, so they defo can't be in the same timeframe as MiB. Here, Dolores is "reliving" her past scenes. There are some many scenes of her doing the same things she had done with William but now being alone. | ||

It has great production like GoT, but the acting isnt quite as good. I'm not a fan of the timeline jumps and over direction. GoT is more on the good soapy drama side of things, WW is more of a good mystery / thriller. If you love Thrones and can manage to get past the first two eps of Outlander, that one rivals the HBO show in a lot of ways. It surprised me quite a bit. | ||

Maeve storyline requires such complete suspension of disbelief as to render it uttery impossible to enjoy, and the rest was not much better. Sad because I loved this show... probably will finish out the season but if it doesn't improve I'm done If Elsie was actually killed as was implied, and isn't replaced by a host, that means they killed off two of the more enjoyable characters and instead left us with the fairly unlikeable ones in their place (board woman and pretentious auteur guy). | ||

Agreed, episode 8 was by far the worst episode so far. Especially the Maeve storyline makes absolutely no fucking sense. Felix/Sylvester literally let Maeve wreak havoc in Westworld and until the end of the season no one seems to give a fuck about it. There are people everywhere to protect the guests and they jump in immediately, yet somehow this carnage remains unknown? How the fuck? I still have some hope that Felix is actually a Host, because otherwise that's just a huge plothole I could not really forgive a series like Westworld. But after Ep. 8 I don't think that Felix is a host anymore. I still like all the other storylines, but the Maeve parts are just utter rubbish. | ||

Also not sure anyone has pointed that out but whenever Hector appears in Sweetwater the piano in the bar plays a song with 'black' in the title - black hole sun, paint it black, back to black | ||

Game of Thrones has more timeless themes and isn't trying as hard to trick the viewers, since the fan base already has endless speculation about the books. I think it's very good but it isn't "must watch" unless you want to get caught up in this latest wave of viewing. | ||

Do you mean the character or the acting? I would say both, to be honest. | ||

I am suffering your pain too, time to search a new series to be entertained , for me this one was the worst episode of the series by far, and how they are going to fix it?. | ||

Will have to wait some more to see the whole picture, when all the pieces fall in their places. So far it's a slow burn thriller/drama with plenty of characters which play more or less impactful roles that seem to be hinting at something bigger that they all somehow tie down to. Until such time as this is revealed it's hard to say since in the end it can be anything ranging from amazing to utter garbage. Nothing special so far and I believe the entire show will rest on some big reveal that will put everything in context (hopefully). | ||
