The Complete Westworld Story (Season One & Two)

[@AndyJP]

*It starts with the story of two friends..* (Shows scenes of William and Logan) *And of course I'm talking about Arnold and Ford* (Shyamalan spits out drink)

[@HaxDogma]

AndyJP 😂😂😂

[@jodyb1095]

This is possibly one of the best and most clear and concise explanations of the Westworld timeline that I've ever seen and I'm still confused. This show is DENSE.

[@edmarklowelldelossantos4952]

It is so inconsistent too. Like whatever goes, whatever fits Whatever changes

[@Killzad]

It's rather simple. Westworld is much older than the show. The show has a bit of mix in it from more modern theories which debatably believe or rather try to explain a form of consciousness is, or in spiritual context what soul is. Now i believe what makes it confusing is that we see everyone in the show as humans and we forget that they are machines, it makes us guess. If we where to replace every host with something resembling variations of Robocop or T100 the tv show would become a comedy and funny to watch machines that want to be and act like humans.

[@MansterBear]

Nothing hurts more than watching ur first love drop her can for someone else...

[@HaxDogma]

Feels bad man...

[@BettyHaiduoWang]

Wouldn't his fiancee be his first love if not last?

[@merasion]

MansterBear lol 😂

[@JuliahistoryLover]

😄🤣

[@JuliahistoryLover]

I couldn’t help but laugh when I rewatched WestWorld that the dropped can & get picked up by another guy & William changes 🤣

[@masterrserch3971]

Best westworld video yet. Im sharing this to everyone. Any westworld fan HAS to watch this as THE comprehensive recap before season 3

[@stretch0131]

MAsterr Serch 100% agree @haxdogma is the go-to guy for westworld content. You can tell he absolutely loves the show, but is still objective in his breakdown videos

[@HaxDogma]

Thank you, friends! That really means so much to me!

[@guyincognito82]

I was thinking the same thing while watching this. Very well explained. Best yet.

[@nononono12345]

MAsterr Serch sooo true 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@EzAlvin]

My Man @MAsterr Serch you sir took the words right of my MOUTH! This is the best recap and of WESTWORLD YET!! They always say the more you put into your videos the quality will speak for itself!

[@beaver6d9]

Holy shit dude, this was deep. I can't even imagine how much time it took to do this. Thanks, homie.

[@HaxDogma]

You are welcome, Beaverius. It was entirely my pleasure, a labor of love! Couldn't have done it without your support, thanks for taking the time to let me know you enjoyed it!

[@joyceandrews5484]

Thank You for explaining this in such GREAT detail. Westworld is very hard to understand in my opinion!

[@recca7]

Imagine the time it took to weave this intricate narrative 🤯 referring to the shows creators writers

[@recca7]

@JTW you shouldn't be watching this if you're only on season 1 tho😅

[@recca7]

@JTW wait for end of season 2..season 3 so far is linear but S2 will drive u made if u don't watch an explanation video after every episode. I recommend it or ur head will explode

[@JrFries]

this was so much better than any other season 1 / 2 recap. This one actually made sense

[@noseefood1943]

So nobody at Delos noticed Bernard looks like Arnold and never ages?

[@jujucasar2003]

U know when u space out for a few minutes in class and then feel lost and scramble to copy down what was written on the board in ur notebook before the professor erases it and moves on to the next session but u still have no clue what u r writing down? Well this show brings back those nostalgic feelings over and over again.

[@GARYRPOTTER]

"Would you ever harm a living thing?"........................"No" Dolores swats a fly at the end and i was ike "oh shit, shes lying!!"

[@frankcatania746]

A great (and still confusing) explanation! As the old song goes: "It was clear as mud, but it covered the ground."

[@HaxDogma]

Haha, thank you Frank!

[@sutenTaHotep]

I have never been as perplexed/intrigued by any other show in my life! Every layer of storyline is as rich and deeply complex as the last. I'm sure I've missed something along the way and your video just confirms it, lol

[@Croatian777]

the ABC Series LOST is interesting , and o yea American Gods

[@Kehvan]

I believe the real significance to the first encounter between William and Dolores is that William gets to personally see a host, far outside her loop, starting to gain consciousness. Since William didn't really understand what he was witnessing, when Dolores was killed, her memories were wiped, and put back into her loop, William concluded it was all a trick to make the park seem more real, which started his 30 year journey to find that realism again.

[@donovian2538]

This is spot on imo

[@tattltal]

Oh man, that’s deep. I didn’t realize that, but yeah. The only other time he got a glimpse of that realism is decades later when he saw Maeve come to life after he shot her and her daughter.

[@Kehvan]

@@tattltal Yeah... the first two seasons... man, such deeply profound and engaging science fiction with hours of rewatchability.

[@theOGofREDS]

But wasn't this the start of Williams very own loop? The search for the center of the maze?

[@charisma-hornum-fries]

​@@theOGofREDSThat was for the hosts not him. He just got hyper fixated. In his grandiose mind he thought it was for him.

[@djohnjimmy]

OMFG, I watched it like 3 times so far and I still can't unpack everything. This is probably the best recap of any series ever made. I sincerely thank you for all your time and efforts. You're brilliant and I hope you get the success you deserve.

[@djohnjimmy]

And that Stephanie thing came out of nowhere. hilarious LMAO.

[@RamzaBeoulves]

"An engineer with a problem that can't be troubleshot" I think that line was brilliant and perfectly sums up the situation

[@HaxDogma]

Thank you so much, Ramza! :)

[@MrShaky-gi8lj]

Hell yea. Thank you this is the absolute best recap breakdown of Westworld season 1 and 2 I've seen. Bravo Edit: moms are the best

[@HaxDogma]

Thank you, friend! :)

[@jackcoquillon8975]

7:20 FYI you're gonna have to tell us if Stephanie got the printer she needed at some point

[@gvlacic21]

He said he in another comment that he did his best. So yeah I think so.

[@starlaking8812]

@@gvlacic21 I almost forgot that comment because of video length. My first thought "oddly specific"??... But no judgement from me! All I can say is the heart goes where it pulls you, hope shes okay as much as I hope he is okay ;)

[@tommyfunk92]

Gosh, even in chronological order it is difficult to understand. I always wanted to sit down and try to order this series to understand it better. but I could never have done a better job than yours thanks man

[@johnbrittingham4471]

I am always amazed of Michael Crichton's ingenious stories. I just found an Audiobook of Andromeda Strain here on KZbin and it was one of the most informative sci-fi stories I have ever heard, it has 10 times more information than the movie.

[@brianligat9493]

As a teen I read that in one sitting.

[@septimas71]

I really needed this with the new season starting in 2 days. Thank you so much for putting so much effort into this video!

[@HaxDogma]

It was my pleasure, Septimas71! Glad I could help! :)

[@MA1-BEE]

I just rematches this after two years and a few episodes in to season four - I totally forgot that when Bernard goes into the cradle to talk with Ford, he comes out as ‘ Fernard’. OMG, this is hands down the BEST SUMMARY AND ANALYSIS OF WESTWORLD - AND FAF TO BOOT.

[@jennycraigadventures3314]

Tremendous recap; thank you! we’d forgotten about a lot of the plot points and learned about some things we’d missed.

[@HaxDogma]

I’m so glad I could help! 🥰

[@arcubal]

Great job! Thanks for this. Now, if only HBO could release the complete Season 1 and 2 on BluRay with the option to play the entire show in chronological order....now THAT would be awesome.

[@Mark-vg4gl]

The story is so much more complex than realised even tho I've watched all current episodes. I would never have put all of this together....

[@HaroldKelly]

This. Is. Awesome. Thanks so much for all the story connections. I adore this show and it’s so incredible to find someone else who loves it as much as I do. And if your mom loves your stuff it’s gotta be great! My mom is just now beginning to experience signs of dementia and she loves everything I’ve ever done. I’m hoping she’ll remember that for as long as she can.

[@HaxDogma]

This is probably my biggest fear, Harold. My heart goes out to you, brother. Hopefully that love remains though! Thank you for considering reading my novel, and I’m so glad you liked the video! ❤️

Fantastic - it’s easily the most complicated show ever written, and in just 4 mins per episode you explain it with startling clarity, such that we can truly marvel at how much they packed into just 20 episodes!

[@ThatAccumulator]

This was awesome. Wish there was something like this on KZbin for season 3 before I start season 4.

[@Nobe_Oddy]

Ive been waiting to start season 3 so i can binge a good part of it, so this morning I started on episode 1 but wasn't able to watch it today. I just so happen to see your video thumbnail in my recommends and just finished it. I knew going into episode 3 i was a bit hazy about what was going on and wasn't 100% on the story line, but I feel like your breakdown was the PERFECT add-on right before I catch up. I understand exactly what is going on right now and I realize I didn't really pay attention too well. lol Thank You for your time and effort, you must have had to watch it all over again just to make it. It was awesome! :D

[@bandersnatch6546]

I wish someone would just edit all the scenes in all the episodes in chronological order and make a 20 hour video. It's too confusing!!

[@AsH-fp3fx]

morningstar lol, just watch another show. May I suggest any show that starts with Real Housewives of ***

[@n0n1337h41]

Once the show “Lost” was complete, a fan project did that exactly. Unfortunately, copyright takedowns, lawsuits against people using torrents to share the massive files, and other similar shenanigans mostly negated the thousands of hours that the fans put into recutting the show. I can certainly see AT&T doing the same thing.

[@TennileJames]

Wow, wow, wow! I KNOW this took a long time to prepare. You have a thankful and loyal subscriber in me! Nice work.

[@HaxDogma]

[@reesedescartes]

This is by far one of the most comprehensive, well mapped out chronological timelines of seasons 1 and 2. Thank you! One thing that still puzzles me is why Ford made Clementine kill Bernard. Bernard is a host, built in the image of his best friend Arnold. If Ford intended to set all the hosts free, allow them free will to choose their own paths, then killing Bernard went against that very objective. If he didn’t want Bernard to get in his way, he could have easily freeze him right then. And in the aftermath, Bernard would have to choose his path. Killing him was just too drastic a move.

[@johnj.baranski6553]

[@KRISTIANITY_]

Thanks so much for this, I sort of realized my opinion of the 2nd season had fallen so low, because I watched it in parallel with Preston Jacobs's analysis. I started watching season 3 without seeing the reviews, to try and escape the popular bias of it being shit, and it turned out I actually still love Westworld. And especially after watching this amazing analysis, I definitely back in the park.

So here I am in January 2021 and just finished season 2 and I don't understand the hate on it.

[@kevinw712]

Btw I suppose this is something we're way past narrative-wise, but a bit I've rarely heard discussed. I've always felt, since pretty much my first viewing of it, that the entire point of the conversation Ford has with "Old Bill" in the opening of 1x05 was giving us the audience the "answer", if you will, of the William season 1 storyline. There was the other scene of Lawrence's daughter trying to warn William directly and overtly that the maze wasn't meant for him, but the Old Bill scene drives it home for us. In this story of Ford's dog when he was a boy running after and killing the cat when he was let off his leash. That here was this goal of sorts (the cat being equivalent to the felt rabbit to this racing dog), the chasing after which had basically come to define the dog's existence, but once he caught and killed it, he was left lost and confused. He didn't know what he was supposed to do now that he'd finally reached this point he'd mistakenly thought was going to be so meaningful for him. I'd always found this very interesting, that it was the writers' way of slyly confirming for us that early on in the story that Ford wasn't just trying to fuck with William that the maze concept wasn't about him (or ANY guest, for that matter), that he was flat out telling him the truth with that warning. I mean, if it's NOT about that idea, I can't imagine what else the point of that scene would've been, because on the surface it doesn't really seem connected to anything else at that time in the show.
