    WOW - fuck me, that was intense [and rather graphic]...!!

    Who else watched it? It's probably one of the most powerful pieces of television I've seen for a long time!

    I actually found It quite difficult to watch. Without giving anything away, If I was put in that position, everyone would be dead.

    It was indeed difficult to watch... Gratuitously violent, no doubt, but compelling with it

    Watched, and I hope Negan's eventual death is horrific. It was awful, but it could have been worse.

    I hope that Rick truly gets evil on his ass! I know what I'd do with him, and it involves Maggie, a red-hot poker and a nail gun.....

    Westworld's starting to get a bit more interesting.

    How come Anthony Hopkins can freeze the hosts with just a gesture of his hands? Do you think he Is a robot?

    No, I think he is the individual around whom all of West World revolves and has installed program controls that go further/deeper than anything anyone else can do. Its certainly plot within plot within plot, and I like that. I am also enjoying the robots gaining awareness of themselves, particularly Maeve Millay. I liked Thandie Newton in Chronicles of Riddick and as Maeve she is very interesting as a character.

    Apart from one person, or maybe a clone of that person?

    I like all the plots and sub plots too. I hate anything that's too predictable.

    Yep, and seeing Thandie naked isn't the worst thing in the world either. :-)
    “Music has always been a matter of energy to me, a question of fuel. Sentimental people call it inspiration, but what they really mean is fuel. I have always needed fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio”
