HBO's "Westworld", starring Anthony Hopkins/produced by J.J. Abrams

I really hope Amazon or Google Play will have the episodes up to buy the day after they air, I really don't want have to wait for the Blu-Ray set.
Io9 has posted their analysis.

Damn, since they have the HBO Now and Amazon Channels they don't let you buy the episodes the next day. It is only $15 a month for the Amazon Channels HBO, so I might just go that route so I can also watch GOT, Silicon Valley, and all the movies they offer any other stuff not on Amazon Prime.

Did you see where Jonathan Nolan posted on Reddit that the show would try to outmaneuver the internet spoiler culture by posting a video that gives away the entire plot and twists of season 2? Well here it is, and it's perfectly okay to watch.

I love how some fans are furious, but I think it's awesome.

Sometimes i wonder if the concept of fun is just foreign to way too many people.

I just saw the story about that on Io9 and I think it's hilarious. Although now I kind of want them to do a musical episode.

I wonder how much time we'll be spending in Shogun World? It looks like most of the cast members whose characters are there are going to be recurring, so it must be must be more than one episode, but not enough for them be regulars.

I wonder how much time we'll be spending in Shogun World? It looks like most of the cast members whose characters are there are going to be recurring, so it must be must be more than one episode, but not enough for them be regulars.

According to a recent Nolan interview, we'll spend at least 1-1/2 episodes (total) in Shogun World. Long enough to get a good feel for it, but not too much to shift the narrative. The bulk of the story will still be in Westworld/Command Center.

 

[JD]

Shogun World will be heavily inspired by Akira Kirosawa and Sonny Chiba films, and one of the episode's will be almost entirely in Japanese.

 

[The Nth Doctor]

That sounds fantastic. I'm definitely looking forward to that episode.

 

[Enterprise is Great]

Sounds fantastic.

Just rewatched the entire first season. It was a very interesting experience having the knowledge of all the twists in advance (William/MiB, Arnold/Bernard, Dolores/Wyatt, etc). I even figured out why Bernard mistook Ford's dad for Arnold. Really looking forward to season 2 premiere tonight.

 

[JD]

Just wanted to post reminder for everyone that the season premiere is tonight. It looks like HBO posts the season premieres for free on their website, so I should be able to watch this tomorrow morning, even I probably won't be watching the rest of the season.

 

[Mr. Adventure]

I think they're going to be hard pressed to make this season as compelling as the first.

 

[DigificWriter]

I think they're going to be hard pressed to make this season as compelling as the first.

I disagree.

I think Journey into Night was a better premiere than The Original, and kicked off the broader seasonwide narrative better than TO did.

 

[Cyrus]

So no new thread for second season, we keep using this one?

 

[Q2UnME]

I vote new thread.

 

[JD]

Damn, it looks like they aren't putting this one up for free.
