    its overhyped because between got blowing expectations through the roof and there is nothing and i mean nothing else to compete with it.

    I definitely want to talk about black hat getting the ever loving shit kicked out of him, like how does that fit into this $40,000 a day experience?

    I thought it was clear from the repetitive narrative dialog that 'the farther you get out of town, the more dangerous it gets'. My assumption was that they were waaaaay out of town. That's why he got actually bludgeoned.

    For me this ep really brought it back. Redeemed itself for the last 2 slogging entries. It gave me the miserable, uncomfortable feeling that something is going on beneath the surface and whatever it is, most likely cannot be dealt with in mortal terms. A lot of 'playing God' themes in this. I don't hate it.

    I think there's a difference between getting scuffed up and risking a shattered cheekbone/jaw at a minimum.

    The one consistent dialog back on the base is 'the guests never get hurt' so what the fuck is going on here exactly.

    Guess i'm not reading that much into that plotline except its provision to get the blue dress to the center of the maze. Now that Hopkins shows up in the Saloon and stops time.. now that's something to ponder.

    God when I try to somehow collapse all these tangents into one linear narrative, I get fucking vertigo, literally.

    I've recently binge watched the first 6 episodes. Thought it was great. Can't wait to see where this leads.

    Which is more compelling: Westworld or Boardwalk Empire?

    Totally different shows, but both had me always wanting more, which is the point I think.

    i mean, up until last week, id say boardwalk. but after last weeks episode, this could go some realllllllly fucked up directions. its rough because of course boardwalk started strong and went to shit. westworld, honestly its showing a lot more potential. but obv its fantasy, boardwalk more or less actually happened. they cant have a secret robot supergod society infiltrate the world on boardwalk, for example.
