"Westworld" Season 3: Incite Analyzes Our Tweets; Thandie Newton & Tessa Thompson Play "Who Said It?" [VIDEO]
Okay, first up: if you're not up-to-speed on Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy's Westworld? Make sure to check out HBO's recaps of the first two seasons here before the third season's unleashed tonight.
If you're all caught-up, then we've got two fun Sunday distractions to get you in the mood for tonight's series return. The first one is a little personal, as Incite offered me a brief personality profile based on an analysis of my tweets.
Well-played, high-end promotion? Absolutely. Still creepy as f**k? Without a doubt. Still not sure what to think.
Following that, Thandie Newton and Tessa Thompson follow up Evan Rachel Wood and Aaron Paul with their pwn round of "Who Said It?":
Here's a look at the episode titles and descriptions for the third season's first four chapters (the second-half will consist of eight episodes) as well preview images from the series' return:

In the following "corporate video" for Incite – a data-collecting company that is clearly looking to achieve god-like status within the Westworld universe – we see that they're more than happy to make our lives "better. From whether to butter your toast to whether the U.S. should nuke another country, Incite believes that the solutions to those problems exists in each and every one of us – we just don't know it… yet.
ABOUT US: The world can feel chaotic: big problems, no solutions, no one to lead the way. Global issues may seem so complex that untangling the answers feels impossible. Here at Incite, we want to make "impossible" a thing of the past. Chaos is merely a pattern waiting to be uncovered. You can help us chart a better future.
Powered by our revolutionary strategy engine, we are able to calculate sophisticated solutions to problems large and small, from global climate change to personal career growth. We believe we have a personal responsibility to make the world a better place, starting at home. Here at Incite, your data doesn't work for us — we work for you.
Now we're getting a sense of what happens when a god-like system runs head-long into we're assuming Dolores – creating a "critical event" that starts to unfold on March 15.
