I Love LOST and The Leftovers but I don't watch GOT. Will I like this?


I'm a bit worried about watching this

Will I like it?

This show is nothing like game of thrones.

No, Gav. I dont think this one is for you. Save yourself.

reply

You'll like it if you liked Blade Runner.
For me Westworld is like Blade Runner and Matrix had a baby.

Why are worried about this?

The pilot for the long cancelled TV show version of Spielberg's 'pre-crime' SF film was a MILLION times better than this train-wreck of a pilot. The Westworld pilot is cheap, nasty, filled with horrifically bad performances (cos Nolan- NOT the director one- directs), and completely throws the fundamental concepts of the original novel/film in the dustbin.

Nothing on the SF channel is as badly made, or as unentertaining as this atrocity on HBO.

PS it has almost zero audience-pleasing 'adult' content, but is filled full of completely meaningless (and astonishingly tedious) nudity.

There's only been 1 episode, so it's hard to say. So far it's been very meh, average for me. I seriously doubt it will be anywhere near as good as The Leftovers.

I do recommend Game of Thrones, which is spectacular.
