Okay... so I thought I would do a few more of these similar to my Black Mirror Recaps... right now I just watched the Westworld Pilot... and I'm intrigued. It isn't unlike Black Mirror... idk if I'll bingewatch all the episodes right away- I think I'll just watch a little at a time and I'll write about it when I do.
I feel like this almost isn't my cup of tea... but I did kind of like it... and I think the way that they told the story of the first episode was pretty good.
And a brief sort of synopsis of what the show is about... it looks like a regular Western show and that appears to be where the action takes place... but then you learn it isn't really set in a Western atmosphere... it's a theme park and everyone inside the theme park is a robot and they're having difficulties maintaining the robots- especially with the visitors.
And the way that they show the robots is kind of grotesque looking- but also beautiful. They're all incredibly beautiful people and they show flies around them, usually flies land on them and they don't respond to the fly because they were programmed to "literally not even harm a fly" so that guests would never be harmed by them... and *spoilers* but at the end of the episode, the character does swat at the fly, killing it... and that was just a really interesting thing to me. I thought that was cool- it poses a lot of problems and... I'm interested to see what happens next.
I think that's all I want to say about it. I don't know if I was 100% paying attention to every part... but I sort of liked the twist about the main robot that we're watching throughout the show...I don't really want to give that away... not 100% sure it is a real twist either though hahaha... but I just liked it. I think it's going to be important... I guess I'll update if it does or not. Lol.
Byeee!
