Westworld's intriguing new teaser trailer, released before Game of Thrones last night, is certainly a tease. While the original film was set in a futuristic attraction full of robotic brothels and malfunctioning gunfighters, Westworld the series is populated by sentient artificial intelligence (and possibly set in virtual reality). It has been called "a dark odyssey about the dawn of artificial consciousness and the future of sin" by The Hollywood Reporter.
《西部世界》最新预告片引人入胜,而选择在《权力的游戏》前一晚发布,真是有意思。本片背景是在一个充满机器人妓院和出故障的枪战高手的未来世界,剧中人物都是拥有人类情感的人工智能(也许是在虚拟现实中)。《西部世界》被好莱坞记者成为“一个关于初见端倪的人工意识以及充满罪恶的未来的黑化版《奥赛德》”。

Anthony Hopkins plays the genius at the helm of this digital Dodge City, and it looks like he will not be as adorable as Richard Attenborough's grandfatherly architect of Jurassic Park. This is familiar territory for EP Jonathan Nolan, who has co-written and contributed to reality challenging films like Memento, Interstellar, and Terminator Salvation. Nolan and fellow Westworld executive J.J. Abramspreviously collaborated on the series Person of Interest, with its own elements of artificial consciousness.
安东尼·霍普金斯饰演了一个掌控数码道奇城的天才,而他却并不会像《侏罗纪公园》中的建筑师理查德·阿滕伯勒那样和蔼可亲。这部剧集很对编辑乔纳森·诺兰的胃口,他参与创作了许多超现实影片如《记忆碎片》、《星际穿越》、《终结者》。诺兰和《西方世界》的制作人J.J. 艾布拉斯姆之前还合作过同样充满人工意识元素的《疑犯追踪》。
