I just watched this on my TV and it was pleasant on my eyes and didn't ask anything of my brain. Well, thanks for reading my review.

I watched the other Ghost in the shell things after this and I agree it seems like they've just jammed a bunch of scenes, feelings and plotlines together then gone tada!

SuperMechagodzilla posted:Her complicity in the oppression of the Chinese population on behalf of white (and Japanese) supremacist institutions has literally turned her white. While a victim of sexism and racism, she is also a participant - she beats up Japanese pimps but then takes advantage of a black prostitute and, so-on. Things are nuanced. Boundaries are blurred. gently caress man I am going to say this to people and blow their dicks off over dinner.

Snak posted:I needed to be either or. It tried to be a new story that aped a bunch of scenes and characters from previous material. I think this is the weirdest thing for me. While watching the anime for the first time I was seeing all these identical scenes (but better executed in a lot of ways) but the plot beats they were attached to were different or meatier. I can't think of anything similar to this that is an adaptation of other visual media without being a straight transposition to a western setting in order to capture that audience. So much of the movie is the same/homage (whatever people want to call it, I'm not a film student) that it actually makes it more jarring than just a total new story with the same characters or whatever. That being said, having not seen the source material I thought the movie was watchable, just nothing exciting because it didn't delve deeply enough into the robot poo poo and the action was not amazing (although it had cool moments).
