Love Jonathan Nolan, he's written for his brother's best films. Also Sidse Babett Knudsen is a main character, it's cool to see her do so well. Westworld is solid sci-if so far, I do miss Person of Interest by Nolan.

It looks good... It's also related loosely to the movie in the 70s of the same name so that gets points for me. I wonder if we will find out why the robots are getting freaky.

In the movie it's never explicitly explained why things turned bad.

Only if the robots don't go funky and start killing you.

LoL "mature version"

Amazing show, I streamed it over the last 2 weeks. Hard to say enough good things about it in a short post. I just got done watching the final episode tonight and I feel emotionally exhausted.
I liked so many of the characters, but my top favorites were: Maeve, Delores and Bernard. Anthony Hopkins' trademark creepiness completely fit with the Robert Ford character. I found myself half expecting him to slip and say "Clarisse", while addressing Delores.
It's going to be challenging for the writers to maintain the high quality of their stories. As for this season, Emmys and other awards are obviously going to be coming.

Beware of spoilers here if you haven't finished season 1...
