Westworld

"Westworld," I believe, was something of a suprise hit. It made enough money to spawn a sequel, "Futureworld," which I actually saw, before I saw "Westworld."

One wonders if this is what Disneyland, with its audio animatronic figures, would look like in the future. Though, the film does show that films are far more advanced in their science then real life. Disney came up with the audioanimatronic figures in the early '60;s, but even in the early '00's, we have yet to have audioanimatronic figures as advanced as those in the film. Though, the people at Disney have invented an audioanimatronic dinosaur, which can move independently, and which can be seen at Walt Disney World.

As for Harlan Ellison, he may be eccentric, but he has to be (IMHO) considered to be one of the great writers of television programs. Not only penning some of the most memorable episodes of "The Twilight Zone" and "The Outer Limits," but also writing "The City on the Edge of Forever" for "Star Trek."
