Nevermind... I thought that they said "Westworld movie" and I got all excited

I was wondering WTH you were talking about

Is this a replacement for Season 3, or as I was going to call it "Delores and Co takes over the puny humans?"

All of Westworld is merely an aggravating dingleberry of the least-impressive bowel movement produced by a single epic episode of the great Deadwood.

Ah so a Douglas Adams creation.

I wonder if they will just give him syphilis to explain away the age?

But AT&T said they needed the movie to be shown in ten 12-minute parts because only mobile users will want to see it and only on their cell phones.

All the fucking actors are 13 years older and this is gonna suck cocks.

 

[Mayne]

I don't care how bad it is..I need hear McShane say "beautiful being"

Given lead times, arranging holes in the lead actor schedules, writing, production, post-production etc even if they did do the movie following the series it would have been two or three years later. Hence, 10 years.

 

[ImpulsE69]

And while they're at it, finish Carnivale as well.

 

[urvile]

Awesome. One of my all time favourites.

 

[stargazr]

I heard about this awhile ago, glad it's going to happen.

Movie airs tonight!

I was doing some reading this morning and I found this interesting tid-bit from when it was cancelled:

” It’s been confirmed that HBO offered to greenlight a small six-episode order of the groundbreaking drama but Milch, who has had bad experiences with so-called “short-order renewals,” rejected the offer. “For my part, I did not want to accept a short order. We couldn’t have done the work the way we wanted. I didn’t want to limp home.

So he didn't want to do a 6 hour season, but 12 years later he's ok with a 2 hour movie (and 1 dead main character)
Bummer.

I've never seen any of the Deadwood TV series. Would I be totally lost if I watched the movie, or do you guys think it'll be kind of stand-alone and able to be understood by non-watchers like me? I'd be interested in checking it out.
