It's easy for them to protect guests from harming other guests when using a firearm, but what is to stop a guest from killing another guest using a knife, or a sword?
They never quite explained how, if a guest doesn't know who's real, and who's a robot, they prevent them from killing each other by mistake using a bladed weapon, or by any other means.
Just another kink to work out in the reboot, I suppose.
Yes, I was also expecting the human sheriff to be hit in the face during the fist fight in the saloon.. there was so much buildup and then nothing happened... haha
shareThe movie falls apart when you start questioning like this.
Thankfully, it is so incredibly entertaining, I forgive it a few lapses in logic.
The reboot is going to have to fix alot of this nonsense, if it wants to go all po faced on us!
Well it didn't!
They never explained how can a bullet kill a robot and not even harm a human!
In some scenes of the TV show bullets can push a man while in other they fell nothing!
So its the same in the HBO WestWorld cause knifes, rocks, or other sharp and heavy objects can kill a person in the park!
Actually, the movie does explain how it's possible: the guns have sensors that detect heat. If the weapon is pointed at something warm such as a human, it won't fire, but if it's pointed at something cold such as a robot, it will fire.

Well the HBO series never explaines how it's possible for a robot to get his head blown off and when a human is hit with a bullet he feels almost nothing!
Some say that the robots in the HBO series aren't really injured by the bullets and that they are programmed to react in that manner but it's clear that they are penetrated and damaged otherwise whats the point to repair them if they're not damaged!
Since the bullets in the HBO series fire at humans maybe they are made of some kind of specially designed rubber, plastic or foam that can penetrate the synthetic skin of the robots but can't get through the human skin
Yeah, the series is a bit strange when it comes to bullets... the Man in Black, for example, is shown being shot multiple times by Teddy in the first episode. We can see impacts on his clothes, but he is clearly uninjured. In a later episode, Teddy starts firing a gatling gun, and we can see the bullets not only killing hosts, but also impacting inanimate objects such as tents, the ground, and especially a cart with some kind of barrels that explode. So in the show, some kind of projectile is actually fired, but it just hasn't been explained how it doesn't affect humans.

I was watching the TV show earlier today and had the same thought, and it applies even moreso to the movie. The firearms in Westworld can't harm humans, but those aren't the only weapons available; obviously, Medieval World and Roman World would use many bladed or blunt weapons, such as swords/knives/maces, and also more primitive projectile weapons such as bows/crossbows. Also, what about poison? In the movie, the "queen" was a guest in Medieval World and was seen dead on her throne with no apparent injuries (as was the Black Knight, who was a host, so I'm not quite sure about that). What if someone tried to poison the queen, not knowing she was a real person?
There are many loopholes, but I guess we just have to pretend that somehow the park has covered their bases and can prevent injuries from happening. You saw how Alan Oppenheimer's character reacted to a guest getting a simple snake bite ("this is inexcusable!"), so obviously nothing like that had happened in the past.

The movie is moronic. It's the exact type of science fiction written by someone wanting to pander to the type of person who back in caveman days would've regarded fire as a form of witchcraft.
sharelol exactly
