Kudos guys. I just watched the first episode of westworld and it was a lot better then I imagined from the description. I'll let you know what I think after I've binge watched these episodes.

I've seen some of your commentary in other posts... Give yourself time to digest the content of each episode. There's some gems in there for you
 Enjoy

So....I am about finished with re-watching all the episodes, and it definitely all makes waaaaay more sense now.
Man, you can not miss one single line in this show.
spoiler/theory: There's a popular theory that the storyline with Dolores and William is taking place in the past and that either William or Logan eventually turns into the Man in Black. I'm not so sure about this based on my rewatch. If it's the case they are going to great lengths to make it appear otherwise, and as though the whole storyline is taking place linearly.

I really doubt that. I can't think of anything off the top of my head that just completely shoots down that theory but if I did go back and watch it all with that theory in mind, I bet I could find the proof that it's not the case, although I'm betting it would be something subtle, like another guest who has been shown in scenes with both of them.

With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

Westworld is phenomenal. I just finished ep. 6. I haven't read yogabunnys spoiler/theory yet, but i have a good idea of my own I'm working with and reflecting on after each episode. I'll probably finish the rest of the series tonight after I get off work.
The music is soooo good and sooo familiar. I kept noticing a few different instrumental tunes and then I finally started to catch the radiohead they've been throwing in there. Pretty sure there was a Nine Inch Nails lick in there. Good shit guys.

definitely sounds like a must see.
reviews are all overwhelmingly excellent.
everyone loved stranger things too, so far I haven't liked it but I'll have to give it more time.
I'll have to check out westworld soon as well.

Definitely Radiohead and The Rolling Stones. I didn't catch the NIN, will keep my ears open as I continue to re-watch.

Honestly, I didn't care for stranger things. I watched it for the novelty of a new series. It had a very familiar "super 8" feel to it...
Overall I gave it a C+.

yes it was too slow and I have no interest in the ordinary small town lives that seemed to make up 90% of the show. I hope someone edits a compilation of all the cool alien / monster parts because I'm not watching all the boring stuff in between just for 5 seconds of an alien every 2 episodes.

The cover of "Paint it Black" was great.

Dolores' gun sort of refutes that story. She didn't have the gun before she met the Man in Black but yet she has it "earlier" with William.

How do you know she didn't have it before the MiB? Her finding/using it could just be part of her loop.

This show is such a mind-fuck.
I hope the season doesn't end without some answers and explanation as to what and when the fuck is going on.

I think I have a better grasp on what's going on since I re-watched all the episodes and read a bunch of theories on /r/westworld.

really? the written screenplay of the movie was better than the actual movie?
