Westworld: Teaser Trailer (HBO) Posted at 3:31 PM by Dave Post

Yeah, this looks wicked cool to me. The Michael Crichton book has not gotten a lot of love here but I remember the 1973 Yul Brynner movie with some fondness and this HBO mini-series is obviously going to have better production values. And you can’t complain about the cast with the likes of Anthony Hopkins and Ed Harris in the mix.  I’m not usually one for re-makes but HBO does good work and this isn’t a movie that I care a great deal about so I’m OK with this one.  What do you think?

Didn’t know the book or the movie, but thanks for posting, this looks promising.

(Still waiting for Deadwood s4 though… 😉 )

I’ve been curious about this since it was first announced. This was one of my favorite movies of childhood (back when SF films were few and far between). Looks like it could be a Battlestar Galactica type “re-imagining” of the original, but they won’t top Yul Brynner!

Looks exciting, gritty and dark. Hopefully not an endless series.
