Wyatt was a Union soldier who went rogue and founded a weird torture cult where everyone dresses like Leatherface. What exactly makes you think the regular uniform CONFEDERATE guys are his? I guess you do need to draw the conclusion for me.

The Lawrence met by William and the one rescued from the gallows by the MIB seem to be filling two very different narrative roles, which leads me to believe they are from different eras, much as Maeve had roles as a madame and frontier woman.

Dawn (and any of his work really) is only deep if you're in 5th grade, very high or I guess, both. He stumbled ass backwards into something people read as social commentary in NotLD, then proceeded to ham fistedly cram in a weak message into the rest of the films. Sorry Emperor Romero, you're just naked. I'm sure he'd

Hah! I dropped this exact same one the other day. I think its my favorite.

"We know the early versions of the hosts were mechanical and janky as hell."

I dont think they have multiple models of the same character. Otherwise why wouldnt they just sub in another Abernathy rather than replacing him with the bartender? Or bring in another Maeve rather than repurposing Clementine as madam?

MIB mentions the earlier models being more mechanical, but but that appears to be prior to the park's opening. In the Stray, Ford says they passed the Turing test the first year the park was open. And the host that helps William get dressed is the same one that walks into the dancing flashback scene and looks at the

35 years is a pretty long time to be hemorrhaging money. If anything, it lends credence that the William/Logan stuff is in the past, as they are there to invest in it if they think it can turn a profit. The park seems pretty financially solvent in the scenes w Ford/Bernard and the tech crews. You'll note that there

"She clearly remembers being attacked by the Man in Black, kills the bandit, then runs into William and Logan."

I mean, fuck it, I'll see Cyclops' dick no questions asked, but big hairy bush isn't genitalia, so I've always been puzzled by the somewhat false equivalency when this comes up. Not like we're really seeing vulvas on display. Or are we using some kind of tits:dong exchange rate?

I was going to take my little nephew to Disneyland, but instead I drove him to an old burned-out warehouse. "Oh, no," I said. "Disneyland burned down." He cried and cried, but I think that deep down, he thought it was a pretty good joke. I started to drive over to the real Disneyland, but it was getting pretty late.

You're reading the AV Club, the website that does not endorse the cool crime of vandalism!

"I was drinking Old Crow Reserve, until I ran out. I knew Trump was going to necessitate too much bourbon for me not to go cheap."

Sorority House Massacre 2 is exquisitely bad, as is it's spiritual third sequel, Hard to Die. Both SHM2 and Hard to Die feature Orville Ketchum, the Ron Jeremy lookalike who wouldnt die!

I still maintain that the best part of Jeepers Creepers is the realization that the space-bat managed to get a personalized license plate and arranged for its property taxes to be paid while it hibernates. The thought of it taking the "B-Eating-U" mobile down to get the oil changed and state inspection really tickles

Alternately some butthole decides to shoot your escort, and since they are a guest, you cant really stop them. Hell, look at Logan shooting their bounty hunter guide. Though I guess the price tag for park admission and being actually face to face instead of anonymous prevents some measure of greifing.

It looked like the monorail station William and Logan arrived on, complete w escalator and balcony placements. The only thing we didnt see was the Westworld globe sculpture, but it didnt pan to that side of the area in William's arrival scene.

Remember, in the first they said there hasnt been a "catastrophic failure" in 30 years, which could have been the guest massacre and Arnold's death that they covered up as an accident. That would also coincide w MIB's first time, since he said he'd been coming for 30 years.

"I continue to be fascinated by host/guest physical interactions. Today we saw that guest who was riding with Hector's bandits get tackled to the ground and restrained by two hosts."

Hey would you say its worth a sub for more than a month or so if you've already got netflix, amazon prime and hulu. And like a couple hundred horror movies on disc?
