I really enjoyed that. Damn Ed Harris is creepy.

That was really good! I'm looking forward to the rest of the season.

Re: HBO gives us a "Westworld" remake as a series!
I have a hypothesis. I'm watching the first episode right now, and there's a mention that the park hasn't had a critical failure in over 30 years. I'm just spitballing here, but what if the show is actually a continuation of the films? Think about it, the original company that owned the park goes under after the Futureworld failure. So, another company bought the park, saw how popular Westworld was, and revamped the park to focus on that, and it's been working like that for over 30 years. Is this idea something so far out?

I thought the same thing.
Excellent premier. I'm IN!

I think you're right on. I thought while watching that the lower level used for old model storage, which was flooding and in disrepair, was a remnant of the original park.

My Dad and I were hoping to see one during the storage scenes, but we couldn't spot one.

I thought that was one of the weaker parts, because it was extremely in your face about it when they asked the question, there was a signature fly on her face I think. And flies on the faces throughout. Needed to be done of course, and it gets the message across, but still.
I think I enjoyed Hopkins the most. That man conveys such a ridiculous sense of depth.
The entire episode was the setup for that moment... its supposed to the a subtle almost didn't notice moment. where they made the mistake was being so over the top wit the flies earlier in the show... the dialogue with that fly slap in the end wold have been plenty.
As its set up now It makes me wonder if they are going to go over the top to where we are the "westworld" for some other more advanced culture/species. It seems to have those intonations to it... I hope they don't though because it would kill the show completely.

Hearing Black Hole Sun on the player piano messed with my head something fierce... in a good way.
I read somewhere on the promotional websites that all the "livestock" that "guests" may encounter are "hosts", with the notable exception of flies.
Yea, that was the first one I noticed, followed of course by Paint it Black. I gotta rewatch it to see what the previous scenes played.
Reminded me of Bioshock Infinite.
