When Maeve had them attacking each other, i was flashing to Robocop III when they made the Ninja-Bots attack each other. Once again they used music incredibly effectively, that slow version of "Paint it Black" was incredible.
I was rewatching the second episode of the season, and I think I may have discovered a RIS Battlestar Galactica reference. I could be very wrong on this, but at the start of the retirement party flashback, just before we see Dolores playing the piano, we follow behind a blond woman in white (and we learn all the hosts are dressed in white). From behind, with the hair style and color, the host we follow has a very striking similar appearance to the Cylon Model Six and all of her copies. I could very well be wrong, but it would be a nice littler Easter egg if it's true (as both shows are dealing with artificial intelligence battling against humanity).

EXACTLY what my wife and I thought. The beginning of that scene was straight out of RDM's cinematography playbook from BSG. Definitely a nod to Six, if it wasn't in fact Tricia Helfler as an uncredited actor for the scene.

Opening scene tonight blew me away, wasn’t expecting that at all!!
For Bernarnold, you see in the preview for next week that he has a ton of clones, the same way James Delos had. How ever many it took for him to reach consciousness. Being that Dolores was Arnold's first creation, I believe Ford is using her to bring Bernarnold to consciousness. I think while William was working on Delos, Ford was working on consciousness transfusion himself in secret (clearly). He found it out before William did and kept it for himself. I wouldn't put it past Ford to have had Arnold's consciousness uploaded before he had Dolores shoot himself.
CelticRunis said:My real question is; Who the heck is controlling the Ghost Nation?? It doesn't seem like Ford's work. Could be, but if feels like another hand is in it. Ford seems to be killing the guests left and right, while the GN is protecting all guests they come in contact with.
I think I can only take so much more of slow panning shots circling Bernard while he stares intently and slowly removes his glasses...
