Yeah me too. He was the only one having flash backs and "calls to a wife" like the hosts

What bothered me was Ford had an English accent as a kid, he now has a Welsh accent but his dad has a Scottish accent.

Also, I want to point out Maeve is an Irish name

Yeah that's a great analogy tbh, and it's a great way of really making you root for the Hosts. Even the ones who play a more villainous role in the park, I still feel for them because they're only doing what they're being made to do rather than being malicious by choice like a lot of the humans are.

I always thought Ford's accent was English (I know Anthony Hopkins is Welsh but I thought he was doing an English accent in this)

..yeah, you can't dislike them really because they're programmed in their actions but it's interesting how it's starting to turn and how they're starting to have 'memories' and how they're attaching and associating human emotion with those memories, like sadness and loss etc...in contrast to very little emotion being shown with the creators...that scene where he covered her up showed a respect and emotion but then it was just stripped away very coldly and more 'robotic' being starting to be shown by the creators as they're starting to become each other and the opposite of what is meant to be, I think...do you think also Lostie that it has a touch of The Truman Show with it as well...it's really reminding me a lot of that as well and one of my favourite movies of all time...

Oh Anthony can't hide his Welshness too well then

I've only seen bits and pieces of The Truman Show but from what I know of it, it definitely seems reminiscent for sure with people unknowingly living out a fiction and being watched at all times. I believe Ed Harris was in that movie too so that's a nice little crossover

The Truman Show is an absolute must see IMO, get it downloaded . It's one that I always assume everyone must have seen. Like when I found out last year that my wife (who I have been with nearly a decade) had never seen The Goonies . It's like I didn't know her at all.
