[El Topo]

Man, I hope HBO has a backup plan.

 

[Nokagi]

Looking good. Hope it doesn't disappoint.

 

[dead souls]

Could be a mess, or incredible. I'm excited to see how this turns out.

I'll check it out, but HBO has let me down too many times in recent years for me to get hyped.

 

[AngmarsKing701]

Looks great. I'll be checking this one out.

 

[NealMcCauley]

I'll be watching.

The android creation also has shades of Alien's synthetics with the milk-like liquid.

 

[ColdPizza]

This looks incredible.

 

[CHC]

This looks really cool. Not something I'd ever expect them to bring back, but it looks really intriguing. Definitely down, and I could see it being something where, even if it is bad, I still enjoy it for the sci-fi visual aspects. The whole facility looks very vast and unsettling.

My one hope, though, is that they don't drag this out over like 6 years or something. Just keep it tight, please.

 

[Turin Turambar]

Uh, the trailer is a bit too spoilery for my tastes, and usually I think people on Internet are hyperbolic about fear of spoilers.

Can't be too spoilery right? Considering how they haven't even written the last few episodes yet!

(lol?)

 

[ebullientprism]

I am in just for Anthony Hopkins.

 

[Blade30]

I'm mainly in because of Jonathan Nolan and his works, Person of Interest was really well done so I'm automatically in with his next project being sci-fi and the cast is great as well.

Also as no one else hasn't mentioned this, I'm getting some Terminator vibes (especially that shot with the robot arm).

 

[Joni]

Damn, that looks interesting.

 

[deleted]

Look so good! The invisible guy/hand/whatever gives me reason to doubt though. Hopefully this doesn't turn into a 'monster killing people off' season underneath all the psychologie...

 

[Stinkles]

Liam McPoyle!

 

[Zyae]

I got sick of the 1st trailer they kept showing. This new one looks amazing.

 

[UrbanRats]

That is one hell of a cast.

Glad to see Hopkins in something (hopefully) good again.

 

[tearsintherain]

Really looking forward to this, hope all the delays and production problems haven't marred what should be an amazing show.

 

[CrisKre]

Woah. This look amazing.

 

[WaffleTaco]

Has there been any reviews about this show yet?

 

[Joni]

Has there been any reviews about this show yet?

It is only coming in October.

 

[CharminUltra]

This is the next new show I'm interested in. Looks dope, hope it doesn't disappoint!

 

[Cornballer]

Has there been any reviews about this show yet?

A few critics have access to the pilot since TCA, but there hasn't been much chatter so far. A couple tidbits from a quick search on Twitter:

The #Westworld pilot is equally fascinating and flawed. Evan Rachel Wood/Jeffrey Wright crush it. V interested to see where it goes. #TCA16

a bit over 60 minutes, correct. And yes, it's REALLY good!

Also, the pilot is supposedly called "The Original" and it's 68 minutes long.

I wonder if this won't be a remake but a follow-up to the movie. Like they're treating the original park and what happened there as canon, and this is the modern safer iteration, like Jurassic World

 

[Steelyuhas]

Any idea when The Leftovers Season 3 airs or have they not announced a date yet? Still watching Season 1.

Next spring, in the Game of Thrones slot.

 

[Zakalwe]

The trailer didn't sell me, but Nolan and that cast seems too good. I'll watch it.

 

[diaspora]

McPoyles made it yo

 

[WaffleTaco]

For some reason I thought it was this weekend lol

Thanks! Will probably give it a watch.

 

[Macattk15]

Looks amazing to me. Will definitely be watching.

 

[Rhoc]

Looks good. I'm in and happy to see Ed Harris in this i like him as an actor.

 

[Screaming Meat]

Holy shit. That looks well good!

 

[Discotheque]

That is one hell of a cast.

Glad to see Hopkins in something (hopefully) good again.

yeah. dude's great but i feel like it's been forever since i've seen him in anything interesting, or at least something that utilizes him well.

 

[MrToughPants]

Looks like it could pass for a movie.

 

[KeRaSh]

So hyped about this. The Night Of ended right before I leave for a three week vacation and this will be out a little more than a week after I return.

 

[Ricky_R]

Does anybody now how serious Nolan's involvement in this is?

 

[Keasar]

so you have the technology to build perfect robots and you use them for... a theme park?

reminds me of this picture somehow

So glad I wasn't the only one thinking of that.

 

[ryseing]

Presumably they already have a credits opening song. Even so, I'd like to offer a suggestion.

Halsey- Gasoline

A bit on the nose perhaps but fits the show like a glove.

 

[Blade30]

He and his wife are the creators and co-writers of the show, he also directed the pilot (and the final episode I think).

 

[Tohsaka]

Seems potentially interesting, I'll probably check it out.

 

[luoapp]

It feels genre mishmash for me, but it's from HBO, of course I am interested.

 

[BattleMonkey]

I wonder if this won't be a remake but a follow-up to the movie. Like they're treating the original park and what happened there as canon, and this is the modern safer iteration, like Jurassic World

What about the sequel to the original movie?

 

[Revolver]

Please be good. I've been hyped about this for what feels like forever. Ed Harris is one of my favorite actors. Hopkins and ERW are nice bonuses.

 

[Ricky_R]

He and his wife are the creators and co-writers of the show, he also directed the pilot (and the final episode I think).

That sounds good, thanks.

 

[Fuser]

I grew up living up the road from this guy, we used to swap Amiga games. So weird seeing him in a big HBO drama, boy from small town done good.

But he was also in The Devil Inside, and that cannot be forgotten.

[LakeEarth]

Every hero has a code, that's clever.

 

[Arkeband]

I'm anticipating this to either be amazing or intensely stupid.

 

[mrklaw]

Distribution outside of the US? Assume this will be on Sky Atlantic in the UK?

 

[MrCompletely]

One thing that I'm confused about based on the trailers- Is Westworld a physical place? Or is it a VR type of sitation where guests jack in?

Original was robots. You might have spoiled the remake.

 

[Window]

Original was robots. You might have spoiled the remake.

Barring some ridiculous twist I don't understand why anyone would think this a VR world considering they seem to have a production line of robots with humanoid bodies.
