Anime isn't mainstream. Hollywood sci-fi action films featuring A-list stars are mainstream.

Anime has been mainstream ever since it's been shown on TV.

The scene where she falls off of the building is laughable at best in comparison to the original.

They've failed completely in the visual sense.
If they can't out-do the animated version in real life, it's not a good sign.

Hopefully it's not simply another sleek, empty B-movie.

I'm pissed off at the "I feel disconnected" thing, which feels like they've dumbed down the internal issues of the Major. Originally she had trouble trying to work out what made her unique as a human, or if she could even be counted as a human any longer due to being a cyborg. They got that across in the original by having her see other cyborgs using her same body model, and even seeing it used for shop mannequins. Didn't see any of that in the trailer and I doubt there will be in the movie.

>>149742077
I'm really getting that vibe from watching the trailer. I'm getting the vibe that it's the indirect sequel to "Agent 47: HITMAN", and it's a travesty of a film masquerading as something people will like.

Original movie aged nicely. SAC series holds up well also. The latter is strongly narrative driven in case that's not your cup of tea.

Anime was already mainstream and now it's getting less and less popular. The quality is dropping hard as well.

We live in post-anime modern. Today anime is nothing but a cheap business solution that helps you selling figs and other merchandise. No artistic value whatsoever.
People who watch it now and like it are tasteless degenerates.

There are a million and one streaming sites and licensing companies standing behind just about any show you could possibly want to watch with official subs or dubbed.

We now have translated Light novels of all the popular series' at barnes and noble while they're still new.

Figures no longer need to be bought from websites in japanese or use some convoluted proxy system. They can bought directly from Goodsmile's store on amazon or the Aniplex webshop.

Major animated films get limited release showings in theaters across America, and they sell out. (Madoka, Evangelion, Monogatari, etc)

Anime is an anyman's hobby now and it certainly no longer has the appeal of being exotic or inaccessible

I wasn't trying to say anime wasn't popular idiots. I said it has been popular for a while now. Sure there are books and lulls, but by the 90s anime was pretty mainstream by my standards. I'm just tired of people pretending to have any insight on the industry when people have been saying the same thing for 30 years.

>this is the year anime dies
>kawaii anime has killed anime
>anime is otaku pandering ONLY

Coming from someone who finds most anime to be utter garbage, I think Gits ( if you haven't already GO WATCH IT NOW) is fantastic. I have never found any anime as mature or as intelligent as this one (including films, and I'm pretty sure I've seen all the good ones:Dbz, Naruto, mononoke, most ghibli films,Outlaw Star, Yuyu hakusho). That is not to say that it doesn't have elements which are designed to cater to a less mature crowd, like excessively cute sounding robots or the occasional unnecessary (and stylistically jarring) gratuitously sexual outfits and angles of the characters wearing said outfits. The stand alone episodes are also sometimes not up to par with the series, but I don't find that they take anything away from the really fantastic main storylines.

The animation is not as good as anime films, but overall I think this series is considerably better than both of the films, and head and shoulders above every other anime series out there.
But in the end, Anime simply cannot match the caliber of American tv series( HBO ) or even Japanese films like Hana-bi.From a critical perspective, it's juvenile NEET pandering garbage.

What you guys really want is that these "normfags" watch this movie and then become your friends.

This sequence does look great, it's true. The issue is that the substance of the movie won't look as good. It's such a shame. GitS stuff is incredible, and they had such a great chance to make a live-action movie that would follow at least one of the original works religiously.

Still, this opening shot is much, much better than I would have expected from someone who made Hansel and Gretel into an action movie.

>>149747942
judging by this thread, trumpfags open the floodgates of normalfags to this site.

I've seen GitS in video rental stores, it's already known to the public in the same way akira and miyazaki movies are.

>>149747535
You're stretching it a lot.

Capeshit became popular worldwide because Hollywood put a fuckload of money into it. They won't do that with anime because they don't understand anime, so there's only a handful on anime that could make decent and succesful hollywood movies.

If it really keeps on getting more popular what is more likely to happen is that it launches an new "animation trend" worldwide but anime as a japanese product will probably stay how it is for a long time, that is:
- every kid knows the popular shonen
- many teenagers and young adults watch the classics and the trendy anime of the time but they eventually move on
- a non-negligible but still niche group of anime fans who have enough time and dedication to watch more obscure things

Madoka, Eva, Monogatari fall into the "classics or trendy" category. They're part of the 50 or so non-kids show any teenager slightly interested in anime is most likely to watch.


Also, people don't have unlimited time for entertainment and I'm pretty sure video games will be #1 entertainment for the next few decades at least, or until the fall of civilization.

>>149747942
No, you fucking retard. It's has been in the works before this. Do you even know how movies work?

The rights were acquired ~2008-2009, but actual work - the screenplay, the hiring of the actors - started in 2014. The shooting started earlier this year (those usually take about two or three months). Right now, all the CGI works is being done - so please don't judge the final work by the trailers, since the Guardians of the Galaxy movie looked like shit in the trailer; but the end result was very pleasant.

>>149747815
The difference is in the 90s anime was neither memetic nor accessible

The current level of popularity is nothing that's ever been seen in the west.

I really don't see any reason for me to watch this movie if it's just going to be scenes from the '95 movie but with shitty cg. Not to mention the lighting (or more absence thereof) really obscured the whole point of the scene. There's a lot of neat stuff they could do with the setting and premise but there half-heartedly pandering to fans of the original while also trying to make it appeal to the masses, which looks like it's not going to please anyone.

>>149747815

>>149743198
>The quality is dropping hard as well
Not sure if you're talking about animation or overall quality, but really it was just as shit back then. The only difference is we only see the cherry picked "gems" of older anime, whereas with modern anime we are exposed to all of the trash which will inevitably be forgotten.

I bet you are not even 18.

The "golden age" was much worse than what we have now. 90% of anime was low budget OVA crap full of pointless nudity and gore that makes modern LN adaptations high art in comparison.

>anime became mainstream

Anime is a 18 billion $ industry. Hollywood is a 36 billion $ industry.

Now take into account that Japan is a 100 million people country while USA is 300 million and Hollywood is not just USA, it's the entire anglosphere working together.

And then take into account how much cheaper anime is compared to Hollywood movies. Top blockbusters cost fucking 400 million $ to make.

Anime is a ridiculously huge and successful industry. It's also growing crazy fast. Last year industry revenue grew by 12%. Hollywood dreams about this king of growth. 2016 is actually the worst year for movie ticket sales in USA since goddamn 1920.

Those Hollywood remakes are utterly pointless and unnecessary.

One of the main themes of the series (and thus the motivations of their characters or why are they there at all) is self regulation in a state eaten by corporativism, you surely can't take that away. How are they going to do Aramaki without that?

One of my lecturers is a massive Marvel fanboy and is bittersweet about the explosion in movie adaptions.

One one hand Marvel is finally mainstream and cool, and he gets to enjoy all these adaptions. Even obscure (pre-movie) stuff like Guardians of the Galaxy benefited.

On the other hand, why didn't it happen earlier? So now for the majority of his life, he looked like a total nerd.

The vast majority of anime I watch is for cute grills. Why? It's what anime does best!

Story? The anime may cut off halfway through to force people to read the LN/manga. Books are better.
Action? Violence gets censored all the time, either being blacked out or blood being changed to black. Videogames are better.
Scenery? Would rather watch a travel documentary desu.

But cute girls will always be something anime has an advantage in since portraying cute girls doing cute girly things in the west will always have the creators accused of sexualizing/objectifying women or whatever horseshit.

>GitS is not cyberpunk as we know it now. Section 9 and Major herself work for the government, and for the most part like doing it. Those who "fight the system" are "bad buys" in GitS.
In the manga Motoko and her people work for themselves and obtain funding by shutting down a government department that was doing shady shit, and then divert the freed up funds to them. Monkeyface always knew that Section 9 would disappear if things go south.

In SAC the team DID outright rebel and removed the government in the end of Season 1. And then they exist as illegal technical terrorists until the new government hired them.

Section 9 had always been willing to turn on the government if they wanted to. They are basically terrorists who work for the good of the world. They will frame and murder if they want to, steal and rob if they want to, and disappear and never seen again if they want to.

The only exception is the GitS film, where Mamoru decided to simplify the story.

Everything is in the "failed". I wouldn't blame them for trying.

>>149750405
No it isn't. Motoko was always a faggot anyways.
Its popular because GITS is one of the most well known anime in the West up there with Bebop and Akira. Blockbusters back in the day used to have tons of anime and GITS was one of the most popular titles that people rented back then.
Also this actually has production values that Dragon Ball and Kite didn't have so people are excited for this more then any other anime adaption thats come out, plus those who don't know it could be interested since there hasn't really been a major cyberpunk film since Dredd in 2012 and Robocop in 2014 so it probably seems fresh to the normalfag audiences.

However even if it flops in the West I guarantee China will eat this garbage up as long as it doesn't get banned for the whole "ghost" shit.

Honestly, half the people at my uni watch anime. It's mostly entry level shit, but they do. Plus crunchyroll has become one of the top paid streaming services even though you could find free anime literally all over the place. Anime has been mainstream for a while now.

>>149751023
This pretty much, Crunchyroll has pushed anime into a popularity boom similar to that of the 90s. It's sort of where video games were 10 years ago, just about everyone into geek culture has seen Attack on Titan, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Sword Art Online, etc.

They aren't generally super deep into the medium, but it's still anime and I'm sure a number of people getting into it now will end up going deeper once they realized there's stuff here that they enjoy.

Depends how you look at it really, do you care about people watching and enjoying the new Gits and discovering the medium and hobby as a whole or do you care about the people who will only watch it, use it as a social status because it is popular at the moment then completely ridicule the original fanbase and anything else relating to anime and manga?

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure and Parasyte.
They were both underground classics cult classics until normies infested their fanbase after getting adapted.

Anime has been mainstream for well over a decade. Keep up, grandpa.

People need to accept that there will never be a good Hollywood adaptation of anime because HW doesn't understand that medium. Just like I've accepted that we'll never get a BioShock movie and even if even if we did HW would find a way to make it shit.

>>149752045
JoJo is still ongoing so I wouldn't say it was "resurrected".

At least both adaptations were good, though I missed the 80s aesthetic with Parasyte and it works better if nobody carries small phones.

>>149752218

How do they handle the modernization of Parasyte anyway? Still haven't got round to watching the thing yet for this reason, it just does not seem right, though I like the fact they've giving Shinichi glasses to demonstrate the subtle radical differences Migi makes on his body.

If GITS manages to be decently successful and the netflix death note adaption is a hit too, which it probably will, then yea anime will be seen as something less niche and less perverted. May even become socially accepted to name anime as one of your hobbies without getting grouped in with the people that frequent /a/. Dont forget Akira and Battle angel alitta adaptions and the original anime netflix is planning, miyazaki is also coming back again in the age of social media. Anime will be mainstream in 4 years.

>>149746221
he is right though, the anime is shit. hence the movie will also be shit.

Everybody know Gits because is drama police with zero high school settings, the average normie dont care about modern animes or live actions that featured high shool settings.

>>149751785
Which is great right? The more popular anime becomes in japan and internationally, the more quality shows we will see. I am hyped.

If people ridiculed you before, they will keep doing it. Anime becoming more mainstream wont change that, you are just not a nice person to be with i guess. But i am popular if i want to, so it will be nice to just say "I like anime" instead of starting with saying "I like animated movies" or "Do you know ghibli, they are great?". Culture is really fluid nowadays thanks to social media, its both a blessing and a curse.

I don't think there's anything that wrong with the visuals honestly: even if you were to compare 1995 film I think this does pretty much justice to it.

My beef with the movie seems to be that there are kind of large deviations from the plot and that Scarlett isn't that believable as Major. It's probably going to be dumbed-down more actionish version but it could be also so much worse.

>>149752292
Mostly just character designs had been changed to more "modern". There isn't anything that reliant on the timeframe story-wise in Parasyte, at least I cannot recall anything, so the adaption was pretty straightforward. If anything the core messages should be more relevant than ever.

The Major is gay as fuck, so...no. The chinese aren't going to be all about this movie.
I doubt it will get any play there either.

my main concern with this is the director that they picked to make this movie.
