Enlightening, to say the least.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h1>Best Battle<\/h1>\n<p>Showdowns are great, but battles are even better. Westworld had the budget to film large-scale assaults and gave us a first glimpse at what war would look like between hosts and humans.

And she wore them with beautiful ferocity.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h1>Hottest Romance<\/h1>\n<p>Westworld Season 1 was bursting with nudity, sexuality, and romance. And Season 2 certainly isn&#8217;t sterile. Hosts and humans set the screen on fire for 20 episodes.

He was the father figure, and he seemed to have the hosts&#8217; evolution in mind when he set wheels in motion. Watching the greatest human mind in the park (and potentially the greatest actor in the world) take a bullet to the brain was painful.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/vignette.wikia.nocookie.net\/westworld\/images\/b\/b5\/MR_DELOS_DANCING.gif\/revision\/latest?cb=20180527173752\" width=\"500\" height=\"285\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>James Delos in the Fishbowl<\/h2>\n<p>Maybe he was a greedy bastard who turned his back on his son.
