Incredible imo, by the original composer Kenji Kawai doing a new drum sequence for it (I think live at the Tokyo event): And then this, a 40 minute Q/A session from the Tokyo event, with Scarjo, the director and one of the Japanese stars of the movie. But beware, I don't know if they talk about plot spoilers for those of you who've never seen the anime or read the manga or just in general of course: Draconian Guppy and +E.Worm Jimmy 2 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George P Global Moderator Posted November 14, 2016 Global Moderator Share Posted November 14, 2016 You can clearly see how they are borrowing set pieces from the original movie and even the first TV series. I think it looks good, now we just need to see if their story holds up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOC Veteran Posted November 14, 2016 Veteran Share Posted November 14, 2016 Yeah, some of it is directly from the anime, which is amazing to me. Seeing her coming out of camo and nailing that dude in the water, RIGHT out of the anime. So good lol Still not so hot on her skin thing. I mean I get it, in the anime she was butt nekkid and they can't do that if they want to avoid an R rating. But the anime was violent and had nudity, and would be an R obviously (don't remember if it got R here back then). Obviously they are going for a PG-13 rating with her segmented parts/skin deal they are going with. Looks OK, maybe its the color throwing me off. Also, the people complaining about the white washing, need to read the original manga. She isn't Japanese in the manga, and she's not even a she really lol Draconian Guppy 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T3X4S Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 If I want to check out the story, but not into anime or reading - would that 1995 movie be OK to check out ?

Yes, I'm pretty sure they won't even touch on all the philosophical stuff the manga and anime have touched on over the years. So you should be fine. 15 minutes ago, trag3dy said: Yeah.

LOC Veteran Posted November 14, 2016 Veteran Share Posted November 14, 2016 Oh, ok an enhanced original. I thought you meant Innocence because here in the west it has the 2.0 moniker if I remember correctly since they didn't know how good it would do here without it.

No way! 2.0 is a horrid remaster that butchers the visual style of the original! Worst of all it replaces many wonderfully hand animated scenes with tacky cgi! Go with the original I'd say. +Red King 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Red King Subscriber² Posted November 14, 2016 Subscriber² Share Posted November 14, 2016 No nudity means PG-13. PG-13 means that the target audience is young teenagers. This is trying to complete with Guardians of the Galaxy and Star Wars instead of good movies like The Matrix, A Scanner Darkly, and Blade Runner.

WIth people's heads exploding and all that? Not to mention the boobies etc. Probably was never on the table, except for the original anime team begging Hollywood not to butcher it further.

It is an insult to the original. The ######## cartoon will be more adult oriented than the live action version. That is terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOC Veteran Posted November 15, 2016 Veteran Share Posted November 15, 2016 Hey I totally get it. GitS was the first anime I ever saw back in 95 or whenever it came out. Saw it and was blown away. But I never thought they'd get away with that in a live action movie. But then again, in a Deadpool and Kick-Ass world, it could have been done. But if they did, it would limit its appeal sadly, and in this case that could be the kiss of death for the movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George P Global Moderator Posted November 17, 2016 Global Moderator Share Posted November 17, 2016 You don't have to watch the second movie really, it's pretty looking but that is all. The story is way too much into the philosophical that it will either bore you to death or just go way over your head. You're better off watching the original movie and then at least the first TV series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes me reflect on life at times or that emotional if not envious need to want that adventurous life-style they lead in some of the shows . Just don't get too sucked into it else you'll turn into some crazed weaboo. On 11/15/2016 at 9:09 PM, T3X4S said: I started the 2.0 movie - but it was anime - I cant stand that stuff.

People seem to think that just because it's a cartoon, it's for kids. It's not. Trust me on that. A large amount of anime would never even get made in Hollywood because it's far too adult rated...
