I don't fully understand that line, can you explain it? Is it showing that he was programmed to ignore the door, so therefore he couldn't see it? Because if that's the case, then he shouldn't have been able to interview Dolores in that room in earlier episodes.
Some folks theorize that "Bernard" is just a re-creation of "Arnold", the partner who died many years before, and the scenes with "Bernard" talking to Delores in that room is actually "Arnold" in the past.
I'm pretty sure Paint it Black played in the first episode. I remember noticing the "black" connection with the songs that episode. First was Black Hole Sun, then Paint it Black, and then Ain't No Grave by Johnny Cash (aka The Man in Black) played over the end credits.
"Rêverie" by Claude Debussy is played twice throughout the series so far, which is a reference to the "reveries" that Ford programed into the Hosts. Another big easter egg.
***** - That's what makes this show so interesting (especially since computer based AI could become reality in the very near future). Would be interesting to see what would happen if Maeve (or other AI) ever escaped westworld and got into the real world...
+WJK Judgement day , would occur....is the original poster that naive ?! God created men/women in his or her own image...by taking the reigns of natural selection/evolution we would have actually surpassed our own creator's duties {which probably goes against the ethical and moral standards of time/causality/longevity/love.
You missed the fact that the modern music played classically on the piano would have been considered "classical" and quaint by the time the Westworld future had arrived, hundreds of years into the future.
Easter Eggs my hairy white ass. Referring back to other shows the producer/directors/writers made is just that. Haven't seen Lost (don't want to) for example... Delos isn't an Easter Egg either - nods to Westworld (the original) come thick and fast but they're hardly hidden! This is just lazy.
It's actually weird but Westworld was originally filmed in 2014, with Fallout 4 being released in 2015. I suppose that idea of making (fucking) synths is a well theorized one.
dill tharp Westworld was a movie from the 70's with a "synths" so it definitely didn't get any influence from Fallout 4. Plus, the whole plot of the show is based around hosts (synths), that would be more than just an easter egg.
As already said Westworld is the original given it was made in 1970.There was a follow up in 1976 with Future world.If you are questioning the series, in making the hosts have emotions that they can actually feel ? in essence to be like humans in every way apart from their actual physical make up ? then you should be looking at the tv show Real Humans,which is the whole point of the series and they are actually called synths.The original tv show was a Swedish production called real humans or Äkta människor to give it,it's native title.This was first broadcast in 2012 (you can find all episodes on here) and was later remade into English by channel 4 in the UK, called Humans.So if anything both the video game and Westworld the tv show took the idea from this.Though I imagine it could be just a crossover coincidence given the time frame in which all were made and the concept of having a robot that can feel both physically and emotionally isn't exactly a new idea.
The reference to Bioshock is so cool. The concept of a voice telling the main character what to do always seems similar to Atlas leading Jack through Rapture. And the Sander Cohen head is spot on because in a way, Ford is also a mad artist.
I also found it interesting how Bernard's theory of someone transmitting data to the outside world led him to discovery of unaccounted hosts, much like the unaccounted dinosaurs in the Jurassic books.
I think that the big reveal of the show will be that the dark and destroyed area that they used for cold storage and in Bernard's computer scene is from the old park where the events of the original west world movie may have taken place. The whole area looks very poorly maintained and suddenly abandoned like people are afraid to reveal that it exists or to even work on it at all. The guards were also heavily armed when they went down, which might imply that they were expecting an attack from remaining rouge robots.
Also: Just before you see The Gunslinger, the background music changes to include elements from the original movie's music during the Gunslinger's chase.
I also noticed that when Bernard goes down to level B-82, the background music (sound effects) sound just like the background sounds from the original movie... A sort of vibrating sound whenever Yul Brynner's gunslinger was stalking the main character. I've heard them use it a couple other times as well.
Retalak How? Not meaning to troll, just wondering why it is your favorite show, since I couldn't watch the full last season because of its (to me atleast) non-sensical and repititive nature.
TheKLIMPF It has extremely strong characters and I love sci-fi, clearly. It's a science fiction show, of course it won't make any actual sense in the real world. You just have to come in with an open mind and understand based on the show's logic, not reality. The show is actually extremely deep, there are so many things to find out and so many things to try and understand. What is the island? Who are the others? What are the anomalies on the island? What is Darma? What happened to them? Why has it started showing the characters as if the plane never crashed? Who is the man in black (Lol same question was asked in Westworld)? Who is Jacob? So on and so on.
That's not an exo, that's the actual body just before the last stage. The bath adds their skin and hair. Then the chemical liquid that appears as blood is pumped into them and they get the pigmentation that is more human.
I feel like there are some similarities to Portal 2 as well. The scenes in cold storage definitely remind me of when you're going through the old Aperture Science areas in Portal 2.
The music easter eggs were what got me SO FUCKING EXCITED ABOUT THIS SHOW. I was like "oho my god those fuckers put black hole sun in old-timey piano form"
I noticed Yul Brynner standing back there! Whoever saw the original movie would never miss that! I'm hooked on this show! I've been watching it on HBO Go! Fantastic story!
I think there was an easter egg from Fallout New Vegas in the ep. 8. in this episode the man in black ( spoiler alert - William) told Teddy: "the thing is, you never understand the game is rigged". In the beginning of Fallout New Vegas Benny tells the courier:" Truth is...the game was rigged from the start." Also after these words man in black told Teddy: "you see, the house always wins". The House Always Wins is a main quest in Fallout New Vegas.
One of the nods to gaming too is how the Hosts are made. If you have ever played Fallout 4 and worked with The Underground science group, you can watch the way Synths are made. Identical to how they are made in westworld, down to the fibers of every bit of the body. So much cool stuff!!
Congrats on finding the Gunslinger. After watching several "did you know" and "easter egg" videos on Westworld, I was thinking, "Has nobody seriously noticed the Yul Brynner "Gunslinger" is standing in the background in episode 1 in the basement?" Great spot!
It's great to see the similarities with Lost, like I think, old William being the MIB (smoke monster), Arnold or Ford as Jacob calling people to fulfiil their destiny and the center of the maze as the center of the island. The park could be the island, with their different places and history. Also the flashbacks and the simultaneous timelines. Not saying it's the same but looks like a bit.
Another one that nobody seems to be talking about. In the episode where Bernard goes down stairs, and is about to pass the gunslinger, there is a sound effect. Sort of a bouncy sound, like a massive rubber band being plucked. It repeats several times as a dramatic cadence. It's the exact same sound effect used in the original movie, right after the gunslinger first kills and starts pursuing the hero.
I've been enjoying the piano's music... last episode had the theme of westworld playing which was not quite the same as the previous song choices. They've had other contemporary songs play as well though. Like a string version of paint it black.
I was so happy to see the gunslinger-brynner that I had to stop the video screaming YES! In my dream I wish to see him more than that but whne I hit play all I got was that frame. I hope that before the ending of the show someone goes again in that room and turn Yul Brynner on again!!! Can you imagine how cool can it be? I was so scared by the gunslinger when I was a kid. Only the Terminator was more scaring that him.
Just a little bit of CGI. I modeled Yul Brynner in 3d myself and nobody pay me (sadly it's just an hobby for me). So not a big deal respect all the money invested in Hopkins, the other stars, the far-west towns, costumes etc. I still cross my finger for that.
Master Volume are you that dumb for real or you are just messing with us? The movie is not the same to the show we have today, and the creators of the show in the present, said in different interviews they did take some inspiration from todays videogames...Fallout, Bioshock, and its shown into the different easter eggs and refferences in the show, DISPLAYED IN THIS FUCKING VIDEO...you dumb fuck
mistereighty8 That's right. I watched the movie a few days ago, and it's really just the barebones premise. A little more than halfway through, it becomes a basic hunt movie. Some good stuff, but nothing like the show.
Also birds are dinosaurs.. and so him bringing a sparrow (a dinosaur) "back to life" is more than a nod to Jurassic Park's Resurrection of non avian dinosaurs. Though the creators probably weren't looking as deeply into that scene as that.
These aren't really Easter Eggs Easter Eggs. You know. It's like any reference to anything at all is taken as an Easter Egg? Or any resemblance of one thing, like even a blurry outline, is what Looper wants it to be and an Easter Egg?
When Dr. Ford (Anthony Hopkins) is talking about Old Bill and the original hosts, he says, "A simple handshake would give them away" That's a direct reference to the 1973 movie where John Blane (James Brolin) says, "Supposedly you really can't tell, except by looking at the hands.... they haven't perfected the hands yet."
There was another reference to the 1973 WestWorld. The scene where the control room was put in lock down, and one of the technicians peers out of this narrow window as the camera pans out. It was done exactly in the same style as in the original film.
Simply the Westworld's version of 'Paint It Black' made me think Bioshock might have been an inspiration as I remembered the Bioshock Infinite version of 'Girls Just Want To Have Fun'.
Also a nice foreshadowing: When Maeve kills the first "person" in the very first episode, the guy falls into piano and the piano starts to play itself. There's lots of foreshadowing/easter eggs to be found, when you watch the show second time and know which characters to focus at!
I think the scenes of Bernard talking to Dolores are in the early storyline, where we're seeing Dolores question her world, reading Alice in Wonderland etc., are actually Arnold talking to Dolores, and he's trying to help her find consciousness
Sylvester and Felix (the techs who work on Maeve) are both named after black and white cats. Also, Sylvester gets pissed when Felix is playing with a "tweety" bird. When I found out about that one on Reddit, I gave up. This show has got me hooped and I'm going to be learning new things about it until I die.
When Lawrence is arrested, the lawman recites his full name as "Lawrence Pedro Maria Gonzalez". This is a reference to Pedro Gonzalez-Gonzalez, Clifton Collins Jr.'s grandfather, who was also an actor. Clifton wore the same prop gun belt his grandfather used in Rio Bravo (1959), starring John Wayne.
Westworld is also full of Hannibal/Silence of the Lambs references. 1. The most obvious is Anthony Hopkins, the original Hannibal Lecter, now a god of this bright, terrible world. 2. Then we have the cannibalism that Lee is so desperate to inject into the storyline. 3. Bernard/Arnold's wife, Gina Torres, also plays Jack Crawford's wife in the Hannibal tv series. 4. Episode 5 is titled Contrapasso, an Italian word meaning "If you play, you pay." This features in Dante's Inferno, Hannibal Lecter's favorite novel, andand is mentioned twice in Hannibal the show. 5. Mads Mikkelsen, the new Hannibal Lecter, co-stared with Evan Rachel Wood (Dolores) in The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman. 6.
In the last episode, Delores makes a reference to Jurassic Park by telling The Man in Black that all that will be left of him will be "bones and amber", like the "great beasts the size of mountains that roamed before"
MAJOR DETAIL I SAW Maybe no one else thought about this! One detail I noticed is when Ford is walking with a young boy and they encounter the rattlesnake and Ford is able to stop it mid strike he says "everything is magic except to the magician" WELL the significant part is this, Ford says earlier "my father says only boring people are bored" and the boy replies "my father says that too" I notice the boy had an English accent and so does Ford and they both have a common proverb that's been taught to them by their fathers. Is it possible that this boy is a young ford that has been created, and if so wouldn't it be within reason to think Ford would make a host of himself to return later or possibly be shot down so human Ford can live a bit more?!
The music really is amazing. I have heard "Paint it black" and "House of the rising sun", both versions so different and yet they cut so deep you know them at once.
Yeah, there is a whole host of 90's indie and grunge music coming from the automated piano. Which is a nice touch. J. J. Abrams is a massive fan of the Beasty Boys, so I expect a one of their songs soon.
The voice of Arnold that Dolores is hearing sounds a whole lot like Bernard. I'm guessing Bernard talking to Dolores in the lab are actually flashbacks of Arnold talking to her and that Bernard is a replica of Arnold.
There are many other songs too, and don't forget that Delos is company behind both the parks in the 1973 movie and the current series. In the old movie, there was 3 main parks, Western world (Westworld), medieval world and roman world, and in the current series there is westworld and now we know there is also "S" world (probably for samurai world) where the main theme is feudal Japan.

You know what I love about this show? Everything.
You haven't seen season two, have you..
Season one was good, but I will never forgive JJ Abrams for his Star Wars atrocities.
"What's behind the door?"
"What door?"
I lost it
I don't fully understand that line, can you explain it? Is it showing that he was programmed to ignore the door, so therefore he couldn't see it? Because if that's the case, then he shouldn't have been able to interview Dolores in that room in earlier episodes.

The scene with Bernard interviewing Dolores was in the past(30/35 years ago) He must have been reprogrammed
And "Bernard Lowe" is an anagram for "Arnold Weber".
And "Bernard Lowe" is an anagram for "Arnold Weber".
how do you miss mentioning the rolling Stones paint it black also in episode 3
wrong century
So he can add in his College Radio joke.. lol.
Thanks for confirming that, I remember hearing it but I wasn't 100% certain.
And Radiohead's Fake Plastic Tree and Motion Picture Soundtrack in episode 6
I'm pretty sure Paint it Black played in the first episode. I remember noticing the "black" connection with the songs that episode. First was Black Hole Sun, then Paint it Black, and then Ain't No Grave by Johnny Cash (aka The Man in Black) played over the end credits.
What door?
please sthap :(
laza boskovic hold that door
Door #3
The one you had to Hold
Hold the door!
"Rêverie" by Claude Debussy is played twice throughout the series so far, which is a reference to the "reveries" that Ford programed into the Hosts. Another big easter egg.
They also play "Clair de lune" by Debussy xD

Bernard did not see the gunslinger up against the wall because Ford made sure that he wouldn't.
i feel like the pacing is perfectly honestly
Kara Kelly - Hadn't thought about it, but side stories of new guests would be pretty cool.
***** - That's what makes this show so interesting (especially since computer based AI could become reality in the very near future). Would be interesting to see what would happen if Maeve (or other AI) ever escaped westworld and got into the real world...
doesn't look like anything to me
+WJK Judgement day , would occur....is the original poster that naive ?! God created men/women in his or her own image...by taking the reigns of natural selection/evolution we would have actually surpassed our own creator's duties {which probably goes against the ethical and moral standards of time/causality/longevity/love.
the quote they need fro Jurassic Park is "Clever girl..."
"Must go faster! Must go faster!"
Or "Life finds a way."
"it's a Unix system, I know this"
Douglas Foster "there it is"
Thats how it starts... oohhh oohh... and then comes the running, and the screaming.
I'm pretty sure in I heard "Back to Black" by Amy Winehouse in one of the last episodes
Also heard Something I Can Never Have by Nine Inch Nails.
Also House of the Rising Sun was in there too. And Fake Plastic Trees
Yeah, also it's played when Maeve is starting to realise her situation, and one of the main lyrics in the song is "I've died a hundred times"
and exit music for a film
Look up the soundtrack for the show, they have the piano versions of these songs on there
I'm sure I also heard Radioheads Fake Plastic Trees as well.
And Motion Picture Soundtrack too.
Yes, The Rolling Stones' Paint it Black as well. There's a short collection of 4 of these tracks plus the main theme on Google Play Music.
I thought i heard radiohead on the piano but thought I was hearing things
also N.I.N.'s 'Something I Can Never Have'
back to black by Amy Winehouse played last episode
Bernard doesn't ask Dolores to read passages from Alice in Wonderland, Arnold does.
bernard / arnold was reading alice in the wonderland to his dying son too.
or was he...

but that is not an easter egg...that is too obvious.
not every1 knows passages from alice in wonderland.
@Prune Tracy your father smelt of Elderberries
You missed the fact that the modern music played classically on the piano would have been considered "classical" and quaint by the time the Westworld future had arrived, hundreds of years into the future.
Some of these are just plot devices not Easter eggs. That BioShock one is pretty cool.
That's not head of sander cohen.
John Smith It looks more like Andrew Ryan to be honest
Easter Eggs my hairy white ass. Referring back to other shows the producer/directors/writers made is just that. Haven't seen Lost (don't want to) for example... Delos isn't an Easter Egg either - nods to Westworld (the original) come thick and fast but they're hardly hidden! This is just lazy.
Marc Draco Shave yo bum!
When I was a kid my aunt showed me the original movie. I was blow away! the show has recaptured that feeling.
Songs I noticed: Paint it Black, Clair de lune, Back to Black and House of Rising Sun.
Speaking of modern day music, Episode 8 had The House of the rising run by the Animals
That's actually quite an old folk song though. It's been around since at least the early 1900s.
Andy Brice Rather fitting with the setting of the show then
Based off google images, the 1900's were somewhat industrial, with primitive cars and steam boats, not the time setting of the old west.
Also paint it black by the stones was in there during the safe robbery in one of the episodes
1:13 - Are you sure, that this is Bernard?
Nice spot. Eagle eyed
I also think this was Arnold, in this scene we are back to the times before the park was open
That wasnt Bernard telling Dolores to read that passage, that was Arnold bro. Arnolds game cuts deep
The vid came out before the twist was revealed.
The Modern Music played on old time instruments is also something done in Bioshock infinite.
I think the Jurassic Park line that'll get woven in eventually will be ... "Clever Girl"
You probably mean "Clever man" when Maeve Millay is outplayed.
Shoooot haaa
Bob Peck was the actor. (My mothers Uncle).
Dr. Ford used "Would you kindly...?" with someone once.
I know you mentioned video games but what about the synth creation in fallout 4 , its really similar o west world
It's actually weird but Westworld was originally filmed in 2014, with Fallout 4 being released in 2015. I suppose that idea of making (fucking) synths is a well theorized one.
dill tharp Westworld was a movie from the 70's with a "synths" so it definitely didn't get any influence from Fallout 4. Plus, the whole plot of the show is based around hosts (synths), that would be more than just an easter egg.
hes talking about the way their made dumbass
Nick Friedell The new show could definitely be based off the synth creations....... Have you seen the similarities. It's almost identical.
As already said Westworld is the original given it was made in 1970.There was a follow up in 1976 with Future world.If you are questioning the series, in making the hosts have emotions that they can actually feel ? in essence to be like humans in every way apart from their actual physical make up ? then you should be looking at the tv show Real Humans,which is the whole point of the series and they are actually called synths.The original tv show was a Swedish production called real humans or Äkta människor to give it,it's native title.This was first broadcast in 2012 (you can find all episodes on here) and was later remade into English by channel 4 in the UK, called Humans.So if anything both the video game and Westworld the tv show took the idea from this.Though I imagine it could be just a crossover coincidence given the time frame in which all were made and the concept of having a robot that can feel both physically and emotionally isn't exactly a new idea.

I also found it interesting how Bernard's theory of someone transmitting data to the outside world led him to discovery of unaccounted hosts, much like the unaccounted dinosaurs in the Jurassic books.
Also Josh Brolin made a small cameo in ep3, his father of course played one of the main guests in the original movie
Hey, I was wondering if that was him! But no one online mentioned it, so i just assumed it was a guy who just really looked and sounded like him!
Season 2 - Samurai World
Season 3 - Roman World
Season 4 - Jurassic World
When you see Logan again after he has become general, he has a pin very similar to the hand of the king in Game of Thrones
well made video love the editing around the songs
I think that the big reveal of the show will be that the dark and destroyed area that they used for cold storage and in Bernard's computer scene is from the old park where the events of the original west world movie may have taken place. The whole area looks very poorly maintained and suddenly abandoned like people are afraid to reveal that it exists or to even work on it at all. The guards were also heavily armed when they went down, which might imply that they were expecting an attack from remaining rouge robots.
Aidan303 That would be interdting if that were the case.
Episode 6 has 'fake plastic trees' by radiohead at the beginning.
Also: Just before you see The Gunslinger, the background music changes to include elements from the original movie's music during the Gunslinger's chase.
God I love this show
I also noticed that when Bernard goes down to level B-82, the background music (sound effects) sound just like the background sounds from the original movie... A sort of vibrating sound whenever Yul Brynner's gunslinger was stalking the main character. I've heard them use it a couple other times as well.
B-82 spoken fast sounds like ?
Be (ate) it too...
Lost is my favorite show, I've watched all of it like 3 or 4 times. But Westworld is definitely giving it a run for its money. We'll have to see.
For me, nothing will ever top LOST. This is a pretty good second place show.
Lost will always be one of my favorite shows. It was number one until Game of Thrones.
Retalak How? Not meaning to troll, just wondering why it is your favorite show, since I couldn't watch the full last season because of its (to me atleast) non-sensical and repititive nature.

The money people.
you missed paint it black song on episode 2 at the start of the saloon shoot out. The saloon doors where Black
Never realised that the exo on the poster had eyes...spooky lol
It's not an exoskeleton if that's what you mean.
That's not an exo, that's the actual body just before the last stage. The bath adds their skin and hair.
Then the chemical liquid that appears as blood is pumped into them and they get the pigmentation that is more human.
I noticed the gunslinger and thought it was really cool that the show was giving little nods like that to the original movie.
I feel like there are some similarities to Portal 2 as well. The scenes in cold storage definitely remind me of when you're going through the old Aperture Science areas in Portal 2.
The music easter eggs were what got me SO FUCKING EXCITED ABOUT THIS SHOW. I was like "oho my god those fuckers put black hole sun in old-timey piano form"
Looper deserves so many more subs than just 892k
Who couldn't notice the music? It was such a good way of blending the two worlds together
I noticed Yul Brynner standing back there! Whoever saw the original movie would never miss that! I'm hooked on this show! I've been watching it on HBO Go! Fantastic story!

Congrats on finding the Gunslinger. After watching several "did you know" and "easter egg" videos on Westworld, I was thinking, "Has nobody seriously noticed the Yul Brynner "Gunslinger" is standing in the background in episode 1 in the basement?" Great spot!
''Bernard''.. haha nice one.
About the Alice in Wonderland inspiration - the vest and pocket watch outfit Ford wears is reminiscent of the White Rabbit.
I'd like to hear someone say "They've figured out how to open doors!" in reference to some sort of high tech bunker blastdoor.
It's great to see the similarities with Lost, like I think, old William being the MIB (smoke monster), Arnold or Ford as Jacob calling people to fulfiil their destiny and the center of the maze as the center of the island. The park could be the island, with their different places and history. Also the flashbacks and the simultaneous timelines. Not saying it's the same but looks like a bit.
A big nod to dungeons and dragons can be seen in the form of a mind flayer in the background when the technichian girl finds the uplink terminal
Did anyone else read that full quote from Alice and Wonderland? It's eerie how perfect it was.
Another one that nobody seems to be talking about.
In the episode where Bernard goes down stairs, and is about to pass the gunslinger, there is a sound effect. Sort of a bouncy sound, like a massive rubber band being plucked. It repeats several times as a dramatic cadence.

Oh good stuff you guys!!!
I was so happy to see the gunslinger-brynner that I had to stop the video screaming YES! In my dream I wish to see him more than that but whne I hit play all I got was that frame. I hope that before the ending of the show someone goes again in that room and turn Yul Brynner on again!!! Can you imagine how cool can it be? I was so scared by the gunslinger when I was a kid. Only the Terminator was more scaring that him.
To do that I think they would have to pay a lot of money.
Just a little bit of CGI. I modeled Yul Brynner in 3d myself and nobody pay me (sadly it's just an hobby for me). So not a big deal respect all the money invested in Hopkins, the other stars, the far-west towns, costumes etc. I still cross my finger for that.
They did have Hopkins in there as a version of his younger self too.
House of the rising sun played on the piano was AMAZING.
fallout 4 the institute.
YES fucking yes, westworld is basicly the Institute in our world, without the post apocalyptic part..! I was just about to comment that.
You do know the movie Westworld came out long before any Bioshock Video Game right?
Master Volume are you that dumb for real or you are just messing with us? The movie is not the same to the show we have today, and the creators of the show in the present, said in different interviews they did take some inspiration from todays videogames...Fallout, Bioshock, and its shown into the different easter eggs and refferences in the show, DISPLAYED IN THIS FUCKING VIDEO...you dumb fuck

Westworld is the best show ever made.

Shamir George These are all Easter eggs - _-
Absolutely love the premise and storyline thus far. Love entertainment that puts me in a daze of thoughts for weeks.
No no no "Clever girl." is the best Jurrasic park quote.
The one line from Jurassic Park that might be apt in Wesworld is "Clever girl..."
When Dr. Ford (Anthony Hopkins) is talking about Old Bill and the original hosts, he says, "A simple handshake would give them away" That's a direct reference to the 1973 movie where John Blane (James Brolin) says, "Supposedly you really can't tell, except by looking at the hands.... they haven't perfected the hands yet."
I still haven't seen this series yet and I'm so excited!
That lost thing may be a subtle reference, but it could easily just be a small coincidence.
Samuel L. Jackson's character as the lead tech guy in Jurassic Park is named Ray Arnold.
There was another reference to the 1973 WestWorld. The scene where the control room was put in lock down, and one of the technicians peers out of this narrow window as the camera pans out. It was done exactly in the same style as in the original film.
Simply the Westworld's version of 'Paint It Black' made me think Bioshock might have been an inspiration as I remembered the Bioshock Infinite version of 'Girls Just Want To Have Fun'.
Can't believe I missed that BioShock reference!!
"Spared No Expense"
is the one line from "Jurassic Park" that I'm looking forward to hearing in "Westworld".
The moment when you are not from US and don't know / didn't grew up with all that easter eggs but you like Westworld as it is
They forgot Paint it Black as a song played on the piano.
Also a nice foreshadowing: When Maeve kills the first "person" in the very first episode, the guy falls into piano and the piano starts to play itself. There's lots of foreshadowing/easter eggs to be found, when you watch the show second time and know which characters to focus at!
I think the scenes of Bernard talking to Dolores are in the early storyline, where we're seeing Dolores question her world, reading Alice in Wonderland etc., are actually Arnold talking to Dolores, and he's trying to help her find consciousness
Dolores's father also said "There is a rose." Combined with the Man in Black... Well, pretty obvious, that they're referencing "The Dark Tower" here:)
Wow a successful show that's inspired mostly by video games, beautiful.
Just when you thought Westworld couldn't get any more deeper or secretive
Sylvester and Felix (the techs who work on Maeve) are both named after black and white cats. Also, Sylvester gets pissed when Felix is playing with a "tweety" bird.
When I found out about that one on Reddit, I gave up. This show has got me hooped and I'm going to be learning new things about it until I die.
The bio shock reference is cool!
Well there is more music: Back To Black by Amy Winehouse and Exit Music (for a movie) by Radiohead
When Lawrence is arrested, the lawman recites his full name as "Lawrence Pedro Maria Gonzalez". This is a reference to Pedro Gonzalez-Gonzalez, Clifton Collins Jr.'s grandfather, who was also an actor. Clifton wore the same prop gun belt his grandfather used in Rio Bravo (1959), starring John Wayne.
Aw every video that mentions the modern songs leaves out 'paint it black'. It is such a good and famous song!
Westworld is also full of Hannibal/Silence of the Lambs references.
1. The most obvious is Anthony Hopkins, the original Hannibal Lecter, now a god of this bright, terrible world.
2. Then we have the cannibalism that Lee is so desperate to inject into the storyline.
3. Bernard/Arnold's wife, Gina Torres, also plays Jack Crawford's wife in the Hannibal tv series.
4. Episode 5 is titled Contrapasso, an Italian word meaning "If you play, you pay." This features in Dante's Inferno, Hannibal Lecter's favorite novel, andand is mentioned twice in Hannibal the show.
5. Mads Mikkelsen, the new Hannibal Lecter, co-stared with Evan Rachel Wood (Dolores) in The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman.
6.
Finally. Someone else noticed the gunslinger...
In the last episode, Delores makes a reference to Jurassic Park by telling The Man in Black that all that will be left of him will be "bones and amber", like the "great beasts the size of mountains that roamed before"
This doesn't look like anything to me.
I spotted an Easter egg in an Easter egg one---MIND BLOWN
It was so cool hearing black hole sun when it came on!! Also the show made refrence to the dharma initiative once or twice.
Episode 8 : House of the Rising Sun playing on the 🎹 . How could you guys miss that. NOBODY misses House of the Rising Sun.
Bernard never asked Dolores to read the passage from "alive in wonderland". It was Arnold.
I’d heard about the Gunslinger, but only watched the original WestWorld a few weeks ago. Wish they’d have showed his face a bit more. Still very cool.
love this show!
MAJOR DETAIL I SAW
Maybe no one else thought about this! One detail I noticed is when Ford is walking with a young boy and they encounter the rattlesnake and Ford is able to stop it mid strike he says "everything is magic except to the magician" WELL the significant part is this, Ford says earlier "my father says only boring people are bored" and the boy replies "my father says that too" I notice the boy had an English accent and so does Ford and they both have a common proverb that's been taught to them by their fathers. Is it possible that this boy is a young ford that has been created, and if so wouldn't it be within reason to think Ford would make a host of himself to return later or possibly be shot down so human Ford can live a bit more?!
The music really is amazing. I have heard "Paint it black" and "House of the rising sun", both versions so different and yet they cut so deep you know them at once.
Yeah, there is a whole host of 90's indie and grunge music coming from the automated piano. Which is a nice touch. J. J. Abrams is a massive fan of the Beasty Boys, so I expect a one of their songs soon.
The voice of Arnold that Dolores is hearing sounds a whole lot like Bernard. I'm guessing Bernard talking to Dolores in the lab are actually flashbacks of Arnold talking to her and that Bernard is a replica of Arnold.
There are many other songs too, and don't forget that Delos is company behind both the parks in the 1973 movie and the current series. In the old movie, there was 3 main parks, Western world (Westworld), medieval world and roman world, and in the current series there is westworld and now we know there is also "S" world (probably for samurai world) where the main theme is feudal Japan.
