Westworld Season 1 Explained 

ARAVN1 lol. You're not alone 😂😂

I understood most it was hard tho benard being Arnold was a curve ball

better than my 22%

Dang Michael, i only got 21.3! You should be proud of yourself

ARAVN1 I can relate

I see what you did there😉

Freeze all motor functions.

LOL!!!

... holup

I see huwatt hue did there

Can be related😂😂😂

Same....

With so much money being spent, why does script writing in SF always suck donkey balls? A client arrives on the train in the beginning of WestWorld episode Two of season one, and a beautiful woman quizzes him on things such as, "do you have a heart condition, any allergies...." Yeah, no. This makes no sense. LONG BEFORE taking his money, they would have determined these sort of things, long before he even got on the train. This sort of plot hole not only breaks immersion, it says that either the writers are retarded morons, or that they are deliberately insulting the intelligence of the audience. The only way that the suspension of disbelief can be established and maintained is with logical consistency.

@@noneone8726 Right on point

Low I.Q.

Same😂

Shits almost 20 years old lol

😥

Yeah IKR! XD

i've never seen star wars

Thijs Goedegebuure that's a nice april fools video

Bruh

speech 100

Honest to God. I thought I had a reasonably decent grasp of what was going on, but now the scales have fallen from my eyes and I see the light.

I would honestly LOVE to see alt shift X do a flat earth video lol

He could spend 20 minutes explaining how to load a dishwasher properly and make it utterly fascinating.

Didn’t trump said you were all rich???

It was much better when he explained philosophy.

agreed

My wife could learn from that. She ALWAYS covers the top spray nozzle. LOL Seriously, this is a good video. Even though I knew most of it then it was helpful for AltX to fill in the blanks that many of us may have forgotten about.

Watch Dark on Netflix, thank me later

Fringe was ming blowing as well.

@@niviamaeva Was it? I was a kid. First season was too weird

Have you seen Phineas and ferb, it's a lot better.

@@tomercummings4873 lol

They were being respectful of the source material I guess. Also I think something involving the world "Orient" would be more appropriate given the stylized interpretations of the setting in keeping with 19th - 10th century tropes regarding east-Asia.

Yeah, but "Samurai World" seems like it would attract more people than "Eastworld". Something braindead Executives would do

@@Harshhaze but it's not called samarai world either... it's shogun world i think

rubberbandman3rd don’t worry rich Americans are just as erect about shogun world as samurai world

I wonder if there will be a Viking-themed park called “NorthWorld” and as for “SouthWorld”, I have no idea.

Great point

John Carney 🤯

Sort of a paradox then ..he knew wht dolores would do in the end and even deemed it as necessary..🤔

Sir... You really deserve a spot as a commentator on this channel!

That's deep bro

@@ogge9304 bahahahahaha

@@ogge9304 basically, they didnt make it obvious that they were the same person from the start so bad twist. Lol

Oskar Ryberg I agree. Different bone structure, different voice, different demeanor and mindset. I wouldn’t want obvious, because of the plot twist, but come on now.

It’s not a bad twist, I suppose is it was part of the plan. Wouldn’t be a boring show if it reveals all the spins in the first 2-3 episodes ? I think William being the man in Black is just brilliant. We can somehow explain the appearance differences is because William didn’t had a kind life as expected with the investment , his wife took her own life and also her daughter rejected him. With consumption comes feature changes, that why he looks older and different. At least this is how I see it. Name a better actor as Ed Harris for Man in Black.

I don't think you're suppose to know that till ep 10. Their world view and behavior was so different so you wouldn't believe that they are the same person. You're introduced to the two Williams at the same time so the show could emphasize the difference between them, only to reveal that they are the same person, just before and after suffering the loss of a loved one.

Now I don't have to watch. Saved me some time.

@@Noor-jw2tn Knowing the plot without the story isn't fun.

@@bloopbloop2019 I don't care enough to watch it

Desteron A very christian idea. Its through suffering and responsability one finds meaning in life.

These ideas pop up in other religions too.

Arraik Cruor true, but christians have that be more emphatic through Christ.

Another quote or maybe a proverb came to my mind in relation to the show. Cogito ergo sum. I think therefore I am. Hosts hearing their programming as thoughts makes them real.

Desteron DMX

Nice comment

"was"

I mean it's also just a common name in Spanish. It does literally mean "pains" but it's also just a name with distinct roots. Like the way when you hear "John Smith" you don't necessarily think of someone hammering away at an anvil.

Of course it was intentional

I think it was

@@JudgeDee7 lol this cracked me up thank you

yea it's nothing special, a lot of spanish names and lastnames refer to things, herrera, rojas, dolores

hackhenk Norway ? You fit right in , I have a friend from..... never mind. She is from Danishland.

hackhenk You're from NORWAY and you're broke? 😁 How's that even possible? 🤣

I'm here from the north of Brazil and I am trying to think what is like to be broke in Norway

Izabelle Machado Lima drink fluids. Say fuck as often as it feels right.

Didn’t trump said you were all rich??

💀💀💀

In Season 4 that would take 3 episodes and 40 different timelines to explain 😂

Shawn Moon 🤣🤣🤣

Big brain over here

Our memory was wiped/reset. I had to watch this twice.

hmm in the end, we are all part of a bigger loop, AI created this universe and eventually we will create an AI smart enough to create another universe in an eternal obsession for control, evolution, comprehension and experimentation. In the end, the history is repeating itself over and over again ... out of nothing, nothing comes ... nothing is lost, nothing is created, everything is transformed ... in the end, we are no better than Dolores and William, we are all trying to make some sense of this nonsense, trying to live happily forever.

​@@kevintheminion1497: the power to think comes from your brain which is the result of thousands of years of biological evolution. God and religions have nothing to do with this scientific theory (Darwin). About my earlier statement, I was basically explaining what I think could be an ending/conclusion at some point for this show. Are we really in such a world ? maybe. The world is complex, I think it's safe to predict that we will built some kind of AI that will be smarter than us eventually. Or that we will change our ADN to boost our own capacities, I think the world as we know it will change a lot and that we still have a lot to learn. When you think about it, computer science is extremely recent in the human history. We think about our lifetime but if you look at the bigger picture, our life is very short, progress will not stop and there is plenty of time for the humanity to evolve way beyond what we are currently.

@@jean-phil I wouldn't say out of nothing..Good made us Jesus saved us.. computers can't create life..I love the Westworld story..in fact remember the movie at my local theatre! But don't let yourself fall for that narrative; it's just a cool dramatic device and nothing more - YOU are much more then something out of nothing! Thanks for reading 😀

@@MariaDiaz-mn4bs God ? Jesus ? these stories are fairy tales unless proven otherwise. Let's not get started with this endless debate. It's a matter of belief, in my opinion it's illogic but if it makes you happy and if you respect people that don't believe in it, what can I say.

@@jean-phil Thanks for your reply..one last thing for you to consider..Albert Einstein loved Jesus and in his public writings was very clear about this; he did not see it as you do! Look he as you had doubts, but most times said things that would encourage belief in God - Perhaps he knew something in those moments when he wrote those beautiful things that he was in fact correct.

Yeah, you go it. Think it was a jackrabbit or something.

Good point. It could also be metaphor to that robot guy in black and his blondie running away with the bank safe, which then turns out to be empty

Kevin W And also just like Hector and the safe. It's an interesting theme that runs through the series, very good point - I hadn't made that connection.

Ford and little Robert Ford also have a scene with a dead dog.

"Wanna know the saddest thing I ever saw? When I was a boy, my brother and I wanted a dog. So our father took in an old grey hound. Never seen a greyhound have you? A greyhound is a racing dog. Spends its life running in circles, chasing a bit of felt made up like a rabbit. One day, we took it to the park. Our dad had warned us how fast that dog was, but we couldn’t resist. So, my brother took off the leash, and in that instant, the dog spotted a cat. I imagine it must have looked just like that piece of felt. He ran. Never saw a thing as beautiful as that old dog running. Until, at last, he finally caught it. And to the horror of everyone, he killed that little cat. Tore it to pieces. Then he just sat there, confused. That dog had spent its whole life trying to catch that…thing. Now it had no idea what to do." I actually saw this as Ford talking about himself. In a conversation with Bernard in the first episode, Ford says: "But, of course, we've managed to slip evolution's leash now, haven't we? We can cure any disease, keep even the weakest of us alive, and, you know, one fine day perhaps we shall even resurrect the dead. Call forth Lazarus from his cave. Do you know what that means? It means that we are done. That this is as good as we're going to get. It also means that you must indulge me the occasional mistake." He built this whole park, let the money men in, lost his partner, achieved all his dreams. By all accounts he was 'done'. He has caught the cat. Now he sits and drinks in front of a host, a non-conscious host, alone. In the scene drinking with MiB, that's the first thing he says: he doesn't like to drink alone. And yet here he is, in all his glory, staring at his creation and drinking alone, confused. In a prison of his own sins. He had spent his whole life in pursuit of this dream. Now, he had no idea what to do.

what? This stuff was literally plain as day obvious. How could you possibly not know all this?

@@AverageAlien looks like we got Eistein over here

@@AverageAlien Then why’re you here smart man, this video exists for the confused people to watch

+Shiera Seastar Which to be clear, is an old joke in the community twitter.com/hashtag/bernarnold

I used to call him that before his identity was revealed. O_o

How did you manage to comment a week ago?

Support Alt Shift X on Patreon and you can watch early released videos :D

Ah, I see xd

+Chris Cole Cool parallel!

Fine_Nightmare there is a video done by the guy who played Williamnon youtube

Nerd Soup already did a very good one, another channel I love as much as I love Alt-X.

they're really not. They made one Game of Thrones video that was a complete shit show. Mixing/overlapping book and show narrative into an utter mess

Your subtle-self advertisement has truly got me intrigued.

wow you're underrated.... don't even stop making vids dude

Immaculate conception!!!k sorry.

A subtle self advertise followed by fake comments about your self advertising but saying you're channel is good. lol, inception

BanditRants You can compliment people without promoting yourself, fake ass compliment. You just care about yourself lol.

Aiden Howatson His life is filled with tragedy. He looks like a hero but always ends up dead.. he always fails.

By the logic laid out here, Teddy's tragedy and suffering will help him gain consciousness, too.

yeah, teddy was somewhat awakening towards the end of season 1, so inevitably he will end up becoming fully conscious

Perhaps Teddy will finally be Arnold's champion, awaken by compassion and we'll see a Jaime-Cersei with him and Dolores.

I know! Don't do my boy teddy like that.

RhinoFreak ABSOLUTE MADMAN, JOHAN!

i didnt get the plot twist to be honest.

Which one🙆🏾‍♀️🙆🏾‍♀️

same i didnt know it was 2 different time lines

The Man In Black literally explained it himself

@@thanksforthesubs8696 They should've just written on the screen "30 years ago..."

Same I really need them to just spell everything out for me lol 😂

Now I gotta rewatch it again

Lol same here 😂😂😂

Oh, Detroit: Become human

🤣🤣🤣

See what you did there

Yeah right.. It got me thinking about it over n over again. I felt like crying too

Logicless and shit show

I finished Dark and watched a gazillion videos afterward. Dare I say Dark has become my favorite scifi show. It surpasses Westworld and Fringe, but Dark had the benefit of a complete storyline over three seasons written in advance.

Considering how many people her escape ends up killing... YEAH.

Yeah right! Kinda unbelievable to turn this evil just because robot forgot you.

Zach Moore He probably has had this in the bank for a while waiting for s2 trailer to drop.

It was spooky! I was watching the game, waiting for the trailer. Then, right after it ended, I got this notification.

Or he found a way to resurrect himself as a host so he can live forever... which is what it seems the Delos corporation wants to achieve as well; immortality. Though there is, of course, the philosophical question of if you could ever transfer your consciousness. Sure you could copy your memories and make a physical recreation of your body, but your conscious mind would be stuck in your rotting brain's neurons; whatever awakens from the copy is just that, a copy of you... a clone... something else, you still die. But hey, at least your memories and thoughts live on inside someone/something else!

Is there any functional difference between dying with an exact copy of you being made and direct consciousness translation though? One consciousness might deal with the experience of dying, but death itself is not a state of being that can be experienced. The perception of a linear state of being might just be a simple illusion, one that's broken every time you fall asleep and wake up again. The ego is a psychological construct, one with fear of death fundamentally built right into it, but it might not be a rational fear. (In this specific instance, that is) The fear is that you personally won't get to experience the future after death, that some 'other' will. The Ship of Theseus is an interesting thought experiment here, but one way of looking at it is thinking about whether or not there's a break in consciousness if you fall asleep in one room and wake up in another. What about falling asleep in one body and waking up in another? What about going to sleep and waking up with 1% of your brain being replaced, over and over again until it's a fully new brain? Is there any real difference between any of these scenarios, or is the ego just a really clever trick?

Aculem This is a question that many philosophers asked themselves before, and this show does too ... in a more modern way of course. In conclusion, there is no final answer ... yet. Maybe there will never be tho.

Aculem To get more specific, what is even the definition of conciousness? When does conciousness even start? Are cells concious? There are living beings consisting of only one cell. Flies are concious too (at least most people would say that), why has nobody trouble killing them? At what point would you define a being, created from our hands, call concious?

His hands during the last handshake were the giveaway.

Same here bro lol

It didn't get better with episode 4 tbh that's where I am currently

Could do Season One ep by ep. There's loads more that can be delved into than this video could hope to cover.
