First episode of Westworld: superfluously futuristic, garish parametric aesthetics and a lot of bad casting.

I think I just don't like overly futuristic atmosphere when it comes to sci-fi movies, with books, it's fine. Futuristic visuals if not worked out on super high-budget always looks like these cheesy French sci-fi movies. Also Aaron Paul really doesn't belong to Westworld

For me the flying cars stuff blends well with stupidly flashy Singapore skyscrapers, but the rest of the tech we see isn't all that different from what we've seen in the previous seasons

Yeah the flying cars and those buildings. I'm sure it make Patrik Schumacher happy. There was a sense of minimalism in the first two season which this episode completely ruined. Too stuffy all around.

I guess they gave in to the popular opinion. The stuff about consciousness was replaced by flying cars and such shit.

Seems like they're taking the high concept layer from problems of subjectivity to observation - there's already been one explicit basilisk ("if I was going to tell you it would have already killed me") and episode 2 has another such problem front and center.

And Bernard's self-interaction practices make it clear they're still on the bicameral vs conscious subjectivity train, on the side

Now occurring to me that Westworld is essentially an ancestor simulation
