I must admit to not particularly caring about HBO’s Westworld, especially since from the start it seemed to be moving away–perhaps by necessity–from the relatively simple story of the 1973 original.
Besides, the times that we’re living in things like AI (artificial intelligence) are common discussion points among people and there’s little chance the series would exclusively revolve around people vacationing at a resort where robots run amok.
That being said, I really liked this trailer because if I’m interpreting correctly what I just saw it looks like the synthetic beings/robots/automatons/whatever they’re called aren’t of one mind about humanity and that there’re divisions.
One wants to eliminate us, while the other appears to be trying to stop the former.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend?
I have no idea in this particular instance but the trailer raises that and other very interesting questions.
