Westworld Episode 7 Instant Take: "Les Ecorches"

Westworld Episode 7 Instant Take: “Les Ecorches”

Westworld Episode 7 Instant Take: “Les Ecorches” Big D called “Les Ecorches” the Thanksgiving Dinner of Westworld episodes, and to many of us it felt like a season finale. So many questions were answered, so many characters may have been killed. Ford is back in a big way. Bullets are...

Ford’s Escape & C.

Hi all, Until now, most people have been saying that Bernard physically (Cranially) interfacing with the cradle was a means for Ford to be inserted *into* the cradle, but Ford seems to have been controlling and influencing things from the cradle before Bernard and Elsie went there.

Taking Stock

Hey Guys, Last season at this time we listed the questions that all needed to be answered by a theory of “Westworld” in order for it to avoid crack pottery. Most of these questions need to be answered this season, and all of them by the end of the series....

Maeve and Delores

Hi Guys, Love listening to you! I wanted to share something I read on Vulture as a transcript from a podcast with Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy dated Dec. 6, 2016. According to Jonathan, both Delores and Maeve have awoken, and there is a visual clue to let us know...

You Missed the Point with Anamorphic Lenses for Cradle

Hey Guys, I was listening to the telegraph and one listener email mentioned that they didn’t merely crop the footage to 2:35 in cradle scenes. They shot those scenes with anamorphic lenses which have very different characteristics to them. One important signature is the shape of the bokeh (check out...
