I have a hard time believing she would've worn the pants outfit anytime other than with William. They went down a pretty specific side-quest path, then deviated from that path. When she remembers/sees herself in Pariah, she has a blue dress on.

I'm curious what's going on with Dolores seeing herself face-down in the river. She's only ever wearing the pants when she's with William and the blue dress seems to be her default outfit otherwise. I was expecting her to die at that point, but they kept going. I think someone's going to kill William-timeline Dolores…

ah, I see! I need to rewatch that ep.

Sorry, I don't mean to pick on you, it's just the most recent post I've seen this mentioned in. Why are you guys using the term "reveries" when you seem to mean "memories"? Reveries = little tics Ford programmed into the hosts to make them seem more lifelike, I thought?

Are you talking about when she held the gun to her head? I assumed that was in the past, in the test town before the park opened.

That was a picture of Ford and his dad. Arnold is either a) in the picture with them but Bernard can't see him or b) Ford lets him think his dad is Arnold.

In the barn, MIB tells her, "go back to the beginning." She then starts retracing + remembering her journey with William.

Didn't he leave as soon as he got the text?

I think Logan is there to contrast William. Logan is a dick at the park, but he'd probably a decent person all around who gets out his aggression in healthy/safe ways. William, if he is the MIB, gets all sanctimonious at the park because he's an asshole sociopath deep down.

That would explain why, when Bernard asked about Arnold, Ford showed him a picture of him and his dad and told him it was Arnold.

If MIB=William, my guess is that it's all part of Ford's narrative, something about revealing what man's true nature is, that even someone who seems like a good person can be evil underneath. Dolores will be revealed to have been programmed to lead him on a journey to discover her true self when really it's to…

First I thought that the glimpse of William's dark side (not wanting to save the young Confederate kid) plus his recognition of Angela confirmed the MIB = William (M+B=W?) theory, but I wonder if what we now know of Maeve's storyline intereferes? Maeve didn't become a madam until MIB killed her daughter, but haven't…

I love how The Witch backs you into a moral corner where there is an evil force at work, yet its victims live in their own miserable kind of evil, so you're not really on their side, either. At the end, I really felt Thomasin's relief and freedom, which was horrifying because I also knew that freedom would include…

I haven't seen the remake since I was like 8, but I dont doubt the original is better overall. Those touches like Ben dying, the couple's last moment in the truck, Johnny's sister finally snapping out of it when she sees him, really make the movie amazing moreso than its scare-factor.

Yeah, The Sixth Sense was definitely scary at the time and meant to be. The closet thing, Cole's breath being visible making you tense about what was going to show up this time, the girl under the tent…very, very effective.

so many of the people who watched it seem to have a little anecdote like this. for me, our phone rang a few seconds after the credits started rolling.

The original Night of the Living dead isn't scary, but I can remember the 1990 remake scarring my brain as a kid. Haven't watched it as an adult, but I'm curious to see if it still holds up even a little.

this. finding out some of the humans are hosts would be some basic-ass disappointing storytelling.

this ep i started to think ford's new plot is meta-fiction or mixing resl and westworld. he said he's been working on it a long time and it will be—what was the word he used?—"refreshing"?

Old Bill was the eeriest to me. The way he zips himself up in the body bag.
