US: Westworld

Feek · 29 Jun 2016 at 20:50

I caught the trailer for this as I was watching GoT on Monday evening, was fast forwarding through the adverts and saw it. I stopped and started rewinding back thinking "this looks like a new Westworld". Mrs Feek said "this looks like Westworld".

I thought the trailer started off excellent but by the time it ended, I was actually feeling a bit meh about it and slightly less interested.

I'll certainly give it a try though.

I wouldn't worry about JJA being attached.

sounds like you haven't seen any other TV thing JJA has been associated w/. i'll give it a try, but if it follows the same old routine of piling contrived situations on top of each other and going right up it's own rear end, i'm bailing.

Finally, something to look forward to.

Show looks amazing. Can't wait for this.

Looks interesting, will keep tabs on it.

Looks good, but I too worry about Abrams involvement.

I predict two seasons of relative normality before we go off the rails and people start gibbering about magic.

Raymond Lin · 11 Jul 2016 at 10:28

As long as Abrams doesn't have anything to do with the ending of the show, it'll be fine. He has great concepts and does great openings but not very good at tying it all together at the end.

Not sure it will be the same without Yul Brynner in it.

Absolutely loved the original Film.

Looking forward to this.

my only worry about this is that their going to pull the same trick with anthony hopkins as they did with bryan cranston in godzilla. In that all the marketing has his face all over the place to get people interested then he's only in the film for 10 mins.

I've heard good things about this - so looking forward to it.

Oddly - I've also heard that the Lethal Weapon TV series is getting good pre-reviews too.

The original is on Sky Atlantic Tue 20th.
(with the demise of locatetv can no longer have a favourites list and then emails for the heads-up)

This looks like it could be a real epic show, not long til it starts as well.

With how 'big' this is being pushed it'll no doubt air the next night over here. Like GOT.

I'm looking forward to this, from the trailers it's looking good.

Great film I just do not see it working as a series.
