Was dissapointed in it.  Hadn't read the book or seen the old one.  But the advertisement made it more of a virtual reality not robots.  Robots are so 20th century.  

 

Would have been better if it was VR and people's minds where trapped in it. 

As far as the show. Jumped around and seemed to skip part's of the story.  I get they want you to try to guess who is real and who isn't. Bit seemed like all the good characters are robots.  

 

Also ripped off The Hunger Games with the board 

 

Did like the remix of Paint it Black.

I gotta disagree with you. There were a few interesting characters that weren't robots. Ed Harris looks like he'll be the most interesting character, and he wasn't a robot.

I think Harris IS a bot. It'll be a twist. He'll be a robot that's become self-aware. They say bots can't harm humans. So when Teddy (a bot) shot him, it did no harm. But why did Teddy even fire at him in the first place? He wouldn't even fire if Harris was human. Perhaps, since Teddy is a bot pretending to be human, they gave him a gun with blanks, but still ... the jury is out on Harris.

Crazy theory ... Delores is human.

And Squirrel, sorry you thought it was VR ... but that's not what the original movie was about so it never would be about that. And LOL at saying they ripped off the Hunger Games. Dude. You need to up your film game and see stuff filmed before 2000.

Umm, yes Ed Harris is a robot.

He said he was one that kept coming there and he paid a lot to do that.  And that's why the other guy shot him but couldn't kill him.  They set it all up like he was a human using it for evil fun. 

Found this on a website:

In the original Westworld, the Gunslinger/Man in Black played by Yul Brynner was one of the robot hosts who goes on a killing spree. But here, showrunners Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy have given him a new twist. This character, now played by Ed Harris, isn’t bad because he’s a robot that lacks human compassion, instead he’s an unhinged superfan (he’s been coming for decades) who has decided to unravel some mysterious conspiracy in the sprawling park.

      High look overview...

      Personally, I am not sold on Bryce yet--and I do not think anyone is saying they are, but I don't think Ward is on table when we draft anyway.  Not even sure if I would rather have him than one of the later QBs.  I see a lot of potential in Allar, Nussmeire, Rourke, and even Hamilton from Ohio State--Milroe is intriguing, but I am not sure he is an NFL QB.  Ewers is that sleeper who falls and becomes a solid starter. I think that we sign a veteran who has played and we draft one of these project QBs. To your point:  With that in mind, I think you have to take QB off the table in round 1, and if Bryce can string 4-5 games like KC together, we still need to draft a QB in round three or so---I really think Rourke is a great fit for this offense--he is accurate and gets the ball out quickly---he impressed me vs OSU.   Reason?  I think we may have a tough decision to make about Bryce in 2 years--will he be worth $60m?  That decision is a lot easier if you have been grooming a backup for 2 years who can play. In round 1: I am hoping for PSU's edge Abdul Carter In round 2:  I would like to see us grab a DT who can rush the passer.  Walter Nolen of Ole Miss is versatile and a bit raw. I think he could be an excellent complement to Brown. In round 3:  I would love ILB Danny Stutsman from Oklahoma.  He is a beast. With 11 picks, I would package our 4th rounders to move up into the third round and take a QB.  At the moment, I think Rourke is trending upward and he has the skills Canales seems to want in a QB.  Quick processor, quick release. I would use the fifth rounders on OL.  I know that I left out WR--however, we are getting Thielen back, XL will be improved, Coker will be improved, and Moore has been surprisingly good.  Sanders (TE) has been more than expected in the passing game.  I think we need D more than WR, and maybe we can get a veteran WR to sign or find a hidden gem late.

      Wouldn't be surprised if he starts a couple Jets games this year with the way the Rodgers thing is going. Giants fans are pissed they didn't keep him lol. He might actually have a little bit of a market.

      I think we look at both.  I wouldn't mind resigning Dalton for a deal.  He would know the offense and there is no pressure to see what we have in him. Then I wouldn't mind finding a low round rookie with potential.
