    Sharp Objects is better and honestly, the twist is fucking insane even moreso than the one in Gone Girl. I really like that author. 

    I've only read Gone Girl and Dark Places, with Gone Girl being far better. Gotta check out Sharp Objects.

    The Gone Girl movie btw is one of the best book to movie adaptions ever.

    Jerry just argues to argue . Having everyone against him is what he loves .

    Then he just acts stupid and claims he won.

     

    Same story every time . Same argument Everytime . 

     

    True narcissist. Just call him dumb and move on . He doesn't know how to combat that.  Just tried with dumb Xbox jokes lol 

    There needs to be like a mod tag in a thread title after a topic have been Jerried. Or make a sub forum of every thread that got jerried and move the new ones there continuously

    Yeah, you guys are in the right. I was in a popular bar the other day and even though it closed at 1, a lot of people (myself included) were there until around 1:10-1:20 while finishing up our drinks. There was a bouncer who prevented people from coming in after 1, but obviously a small bakery isn't going to have the resources to hire one to stop the woman in the OP from coming in.

    When I use to work at a bar in a restaurant, the second you accept customers they can order and take as long as they like. There were days where the place was 'closed' at 10pm or so but we still had people there at 12am. Ppl that were accepted from before 10pm. THe amount of ppl we would reject every day (after 10pm) while the place was still full and still have to serve the people at the tables. Eg, new person comes to order a drink it's 'sorry we are closed', but if a customer who was already there eating ordered one you have to serve them. It's the most common practice everywhere. Jehurey just lives in la la land.

    LOL, I love how you want this to be true.

     

    Beat me at the argument...……….don't try to make the argument about me.

     

    You're experience is irrelevant to me, only what you can argue.

    Everything is an argument and some contest to you. Everything you said there just proved my point. Experience is the ONLY thing that matters in reality not some laughable internet argument on a gaming forum. There's nothing to even argue, there exists your imaginary world and there exists real life. You clearly live in one over the other.

    i heard the americans series finale was excellent. i can't wait to see it tonight :aitch:

    You have godly taste.

     

    The Americans is probably the most underrated show of the last 5 years. I have been waiting for the final season to finish so I can binge watch it. Keen af to watch it. Glad to hear it's excellent, never had a doubt.

    Excellent post. I would love to hear the theory. 

     

    So the theory is that Bernard in the present day timeline, where he was washed up on shore and is with the recovery team is actually Teddy. Meaning that somehow (maybe Dolores has switched his 'brain' with that of Teddies (also supporting my theory that the bodies are now just hosts to a consciousness and nothing more. 

     


     

    Supporting evidence being how similar bernard's clothing in the present day timeline is to Teddy's:

    Bernard-and-Teddy-comparison.jpg&w=900

     

    Also Bernard in an earlier episode (ep1) says he 'killed them all' referencing to all the bodies in that lake. This new Teddy would have zero problem doing that. They also make a very clear point to show Teddy's dead body in the lake and no one else's specifically.

     

    There is also a parallel scene where Bernard wakes up on the train (the same train that Teddy always begins his story) and Bernard is shocked and not sure where he is and looking at his hands sort of confused.

     

    It's an interesting theory and one I think is true.

    ok..here are a few:

     

    the cradle explains a lot. while i think the hosts do have some kind of consciousness, i think the cradle is part simulator, designed to interpret guests' interests, and other personal data, so the arcs can adapt to an individual's desired experience, remotely, and by doing so the hosts are given a simulated backstory. but like any program,  it can be modded or hacked. i think maeve is the only "free" host, and that she's able to manipulate the simulation - like her new jedi mind trick. she's essentially re-writing code. but...i think the cradle also serves as a server for backups...like the version of westworld where delores and teddy are sweet like apple pie (let's call it vanilla westworld). but...ford is now lurking there, which makes me think he's been tampering with the "main"  westworld via cradle. then again, vanilla westworld maybe a program within another program (the main one), and westworld is just one massive simulation ala matrix. i'm driving myself crazy thinking about it LOL

     

     

     

    Yeah the cradle has now become pretty much the most important thing in the show. Ever since the end of S1 where Ford is killed my theory was that he had discovered a way to upload his consciousness somehow and would return. The cradle very much is that. I think the entire end goal of Westworld was always about trying to achieve immortality. I think Ford somehow finally discovered how and perfected what William couldn't with his father in law all those years. I think he then orchestrated his death and everything that is going on and will eventually be downloaded into another host body. Even the term 'host' I feel has relevance. We think it is because they are hosting guests but it also works perfectly as a host body of a consciousness. I don't know if you've seen Altered Carbon but basically I think it is like the beginning of that technology of downloading consciousness into hosts. 



    I think that the people/person  Charlotte Hale is communicating with is Ford inside the cradle, hence the more archaic form of communication.

     

    There is another theory I read regarding Bernard and the timelines which I think is amazing and spot on, not sure if you have heard of it. Don't want to tell you if you don't want to know though cause I'm fairly sure it's legit and would be a pretty late season twist.

    Meh that’s true of any show. There will always be storylines that are better than the others even in the best of shows. 

    Not talking about the quality of the storylines but how far they are branching from each other. S1 was very tight and focused even with the Maeve storyline being very different than the MiB/Dolores one and we got updates to both each ep. S2 however is starting to do what Walking Dead did in later seasons where one ep1 with squad A then next with squad B then next back to squad A. Not a fan of this cause it ruins the build up from each story thread imo. Like the Shogun world finale was from 2 eps back and we see the continuation now, yet because of the last episode and how that ended I was now more invested in that continuation which you need to wait an extra week for now. Hope that makes sense.
