Can’t wait.
S1 was good but I lost patience with its portentous meandering about half way through S2 - still saw it through to the end hoping it would pick up. I'll probably give S3 a miss.
Season 2 was disappointing. Season 3 sounds plain bad

+1
Looks ace
Were s1 & 2 not in UHD? If so I can't find a UHD option for s3 🙁
I got around to watching s3e1 fairly late last night and nodded off a couple of times (from tiredness not because it was dull), Westworld is one of those shows you can't afford to do that as otherwise nothing makes sense so I guess I'm going to have to re-watch it :p
Looks ace
Visually, yes. Don't want to write it off after one episode, but I have low expectations about where the plot is heading.
It's strangely confusing to watch an episode of Westworld with a linear timeline!
Yeah, give it time. Cinematography is tremendous.
I enjoyed it, but then i'm easily pleased.
I like the characters, Delores in a new world looks menacing, and thats a great storyline for S3. I thought she was a bit dippy in S2 until she seemed to mutate into a bit of bot with an evil streak.
It was a tad confusing at the start, and it took me a few minutes to acclimatise to the future world they now occupy. Bernard seems to have a baddy button too, so thats going to be interesting to see how he approaches the spectre of sharing space with Humans..
Yeah, I'm satisfied.
The 70s adult take on the original is the best...
🙂

Haha, good one. 😀
EP1 - visually stunning, like i, Robot meets Altered Carbon, meets Bladerunner2049, on steroids.
I loved both S1 and S2, and this is looking to be just as good - and I'm willing to bet, just as confusing.
Ep2.
It's definitely less confusing, however the construct within a world, within who the hells knows what... In France. I think.
*click, click, click... ahhh damn it - CTRL ALT DEL, end task.* 😀 Love the inception style world in a world moving at different paces.
Also, Game of Thrones world confirmed?
Loving it so far...
See, what they did there was "Captain Kirk makes the robot explode by making illogical statements at it", score = one out of five, but losing even that mark given that the answer to the seemingly impossible question is fairly well defined in maths. following that tosh, maeve wakes up and all preceeding stuff in 'war world' lost all relevance thanks to the exposition by the french dude who invented the giant golf ball thing.
oh, look, stubbs is a robot, haven't we already done "oh look, he's a robot"?
visually great
storyline faltering
the mystery element of the storytelling that s1 had in spades has vanished
s2 went a bit too large on the time jumps
if this turns into 'robots blowing stuff up' again it will be crap
Struggling with it, lots of jumping about plot to plot and back in time, forwards, back.... I think i may have another episode but i'm not convinced.
They did alternate stories by episode, so expect next weeks to be back on the tinder-for-criminals bladerunner construction man storyline again.
I'm not sure they're doing non-linear time this season.
Bernard might be in a sim (although they pulled that one for maeve already).
Or, he might be being set up in some way. The Stubbsbot discovery and repair was "straightforward", finding the repair shop "a bit easy" and fighting off the guards didn't seem to tax Stubbs much. Might be fishy. Might not. Maybe they can rescue something there.
Maeves story just seemed pointless until the closing scene.
nah its lost me. im still tuning in to marvel at the CGI (perv at Dolores) but absolutely nothing of the narrative is going in anymore.
I’m not sure they’re doing non-linear time this season.
Who knows? They've set it up so that you have absolutely no way of knowing what's real and what's not, or when anything is. It's visually great and has a good cast, so I'll keep watching, but the writers have ditched plot for the gimmick of deliberately misleading the audience, so I no longer care what happens.

The theme seems to be 'simulation? or not?' this time around.
vs. the "when did it happen" thing they did so well in S1.

It's like lost all over again...
Well I've just watched the final episode of this series, and **** me, they've left it open for another one. I won't be watching it.
