>>81135483

Director too focused on including the scenes of the original but forgetting the why.

The ideal story is actually revealed half way through the film but the writers were either too stupid to notice, or couldn't do anything about it.

Kuze should have retained his real memories, as he was previous prototype - figures they wouldn't need to mess around with that, then the *whitewash* would have had a legitimate reason to do the fucking mind meld once she realised her memories were fake AND gay.

Not necessarily.

Not necessarily.

There's a big difference in the settings. In this version, Motoko being a full-cyborg is something new and experimental, while in the original, full cyborgs were fairly common.

But neither is just about full cyborgs anyway, that only happens to be an aspect of the setting.

It actually wasn't in your face or pandering. SOMEHOW, her, the autistic kid and r/AsianMasculinity were the best characters in the movie.

... I have watched the Scarjo movie and Major tells him that his memories were false and that he never had a wife and daughter and that he has been living alone for so long in an empty apartment.

Kuze then invades his mind and then he kills himself.

Have you even watched the fucking movie?

>>81137829
where did they ever bring refugees in in the source material? They were still exploited, all they did was prevent them from getting nuked. And they're hardly rambling about how humans don't understand death either, the main debate is what makes one human and if it can be preserved when uploading yourself to the net.

I hated the force awakens for that very reason. Just cramming in a bunch of references doesn't make a good movie. I much prefer something that has a clear focus rather than try and touch on a tonne of shit from a franchise.

I've only seen the ghost in the shell 1995 movie and what I liked about that was it's clear focus on the story it was telling, while creating a fascinating setting.

That's what made Logan great, it didn't get bogged down with having all the mutants make cameos or trying to squeeze in their story. It stayed focus on its little chunk of time and place of its setting.

I don't know about this GirS film, I liked the way the 1995 film animated (no pun intended) the philosophical ideas it explored, calling that "chatter" and just praising how much fan service it's done really makes me think this film isn't something I'd like, just like TFA

Why are so many people bitching about it? I've picked out like 10 scenes now and everyone says they were in the original or came from the manga or another anime thing.

How can it be that bad then? I thought it was pretty good, with a story that made sense. The only thing I didn't like was the CEO villain too cliche.

Not even kidding. She was extremely hot though.

The story about his funky eyes is that they're the trademark of the Rangers, the unit he was part of before joining Section 9. They wear them as badge of honor and someone who has them is a brother and you don't kill brothers. In one episode of S.A.C they are attacked by a small team of Rangers and they stop shooting because they saw Batou's eyes.
Turned out that whoever baddy Section 9 was after had enough power to mobilize Rangers.

Yeah, but the second half of the thread is full of shills who act like it was an interesting movie.

>>81140031
That's very interesting, I really need to watch that anime. At the same time I can see why they changed it, you can't go into that much depth in a movie like this.

It is a bit sad that not much worldbuilding was done though, but it really doesn't look like they are expecting a sequel anyway.

It wins on not being a total embarrassment alone. Probably the best adaptation that could have been expected given the circumstances. It's passable and mostly harmless.

I don't get this. I thought everything looked very clean and peppy. (Except the forbidden zone - which just looked ugly.)

I would have PREFERRED a gritty looking movie, tho, because now everything looks like it came straight from a computer. (Which it did, naturally.)

>had a few original ideas
Such as...?

>complete ass backwards philisophical view compared to original
This I don't understand. To me, the new movie said nothing. No views whatsoever. Nothing new, nothing altered, nothing even botched. Everything was just... bland.

>>81135483
I liked it.

Motoko being turned into some rebel refugee was way out of character IMO. Motoko keeping her human brain also didnt make sense considering she regularly jumps off buildings and does other acrobatic things that would send forces through her body that would damage her brain just by the fluid pressures alone. And she is an elite hacker, which is something that implies a cyber brain in use.

Big bad ebil corporation was also another thing that bothered me. The puppet master kind of took a back seat to the company, when he is supposed to be the BBEG. Section 9 just buys cybernetics from the company and thats it.

Yeah, I wish they'd used the original creation music during the creation scene. The score was good but it wasn't iconic like that chorus was. At least we got the creation song at all, not like some Transformers shit where they're too ashamed to use it. Something about the creation scene doesn't work as well when the music isn't actively unsettling you.

>>81138736
That's a pretty good image but man you can barely even tell that's ScarJo there

that good be some random cosplayer
fuck what was the point of casting ScarJo, she's not even that good of an action actress

>>81140363
She plays the character well, and there's not a lot of action overall. Hell the two best action shots in the movie were in camo so she wasn't even necessary. The character isn't written exactly the same as the usual Major but she does a good job with the material.

Casting her was just to get Avengers people into the theater, but they do a decent job with the twist as to why she looks white as fuck.

>>81140348
The video is legit though

One big criticism I keep seeing is that it wasn't original. But I don't really think that's a valid criticism, not every movie has to do something new and its unrealistic to expect every work of art to do so. That said I hate that every cyberpunk setting has to be dystopian, one thing that was cool about GITS was that it was a future that seemed possible and it didn't rely on the evil corporations control everything plot point.

They cut this up a lot for the trailer.

In the actual film release they cut in scenes of the leader of section 9,

More scenes of section 9 entering/raiding hte building

A scene with a grenade where one of the uzi dudes tries to set it off but batou stamps on his hand

Im pretty sure they altered the major's suit as well because it looked much better in the full release.

>>81140326
The puppetmaster wasn't in the movie, it was Kuze who was a villain from the second season of the animated series. That said the story was mostly OC with a couple scenes from the 1995 movie thrown in. I liked that it stayed in tradition in a sense that every incarnation of Ghost in the Shell has a different continuity. I wouldn't like a straight up remake, though the story they went with was a little too Robocopish.

>>81140550
They won't see it. Mike and Jay only do shit nobody cares about these days. Either that or movies they think will be bad to draw in hits.

I usually hate these terrible Hollywood remakes, but I actually really enjoyed this one. I'm sure after a second viewing I'll pick up on a lot more flaws, but even still I thought it was pretty good.
I like that they went for a completely different story, so at least it's not just a pointless remake of the exact same story. Somehow I didn't find myself comparing it too much to the original because of that.

>>81140505

Yeah they did.

Is the Making of a cyborg/Kuguustuta ura mite chiru opening they've got for the movie good? Same with the ending theme? Kinda bummed they didn't do a middle theme like the original and Innocence did.

>>81140312
>gritty cyberpunk aesthetic
The clean/sterile looking labs and major's apartment juxtaposed with the shithole hong kong style streets/clubs/drug dens looked great in live action. I think they went overboard with the holograms in some scenes but overall did a good job.

>complete ass backwards philisophical view compared to the original
Right. In the original film the major is growing disconnected with humanity and becoming more connected with the digital. She feels trapped inside of her body. The puppet master can sense this when he trawls the net and pinpoints the major to talk to her because it wants to experience and compare a human 'ghost' with his artifical ghost, meld the two to create a weird kind of superbeing. The major is unaware of this for most of the film but is persuaded over towards the end. The themes are of technology outgrowing humanity/nature and being the next step on the tree of life, like the next step in human consciousness/evolution. It also explores the idea of digitally implanted memories/ real memories being interchangable and indistinguishable along with information in general. The major doesnt even know if her memories are real or if they're fabricated and in the end doesnt care if they are or not. She embraces a LACK of individuality where she can freely share information with others and where the borders of self dont exist any more.

The scarjo film completely throws this out of the window. Major doesnt even WANT her fucking cyborg body in the new film and hates the fact that she isnt human. She hates the fact that her individuality has been stripped with her and turns against the evil corporation that did it and then refuses to meld with her bf because she wants to meet her mummy again. They obviously didnt have the major melding to open a possiblity of a sequel but it spits in the face of the original's themes as does the major's whole character arc/backstory in the new film.

>>81140875
They don't use making of a cyborg until the end credits. All the music is original (and actually pretty decent) other than the end credits.

I just realized they combined the puppet master and kuze into a single character. I suppose this is the reason Major was made into a rebel refugee because kuze's elements might have taken too much time to explain. Now that I think about it, they crammed a lot of the source material into the movie.

Are they gonna flop this hard with the metal gear and uncharted movies as well? I'm guessing metal gear will be fumbled and that uncharted does good. Even though MGS is my favorite series.

>>81141809
Yes I saw this movie and never took them as lovers but just as people who lived in same house together and knew each other very well

>>81141825
It was literally a dumbed-down americanized cashgrab

It deserves all the shit it gets

>>81141825
This so much. Hell even reviews said Scarjo was great. The negative reviews only hate the movie cos of "MUH PHILOSOPHY NOT IN IT"

>>81141825

Have them niggas didn't see 1995 or only did after reading about some whitewash "Controversy" for 2017 and didn't get the fucking thing in the first place when their faggots asses watched it on an iphone or whatever the fuck.

Fuck em.

>>81141820
Too many mixed reviews everywhere, I don't trust it.

>>81141888
They all imply they have, but they dodge around it. They say "the classic original" or "the magnificent 1995 anime" but they don't reference any specific events or say anything of note about it other than calling it groundbreaking or some shit. Then they say "this movie feels derivative of Blade Runner and The Matrix."

>>81141858
How is it a cashgrab?

>literally no action
>great white male lead
>very dialogue driven like original
It didnt feel like an American movie at all. No way was it like the action flick force awakens

>>81141894
I saw it on Thursday and fucking loved it. FINALLY they made a movie I actually liked compared to all the Hollywood garbage like Jurassic World, Kong Skull Island. This was a great memorable movie that makes me wanna see it again

The important thing to note is that in the situation of a "mixed" movie like suicide squad, different reviews sound like they saw completely different movies. The ones who praised suicide squad never mentioned editing, or they called the visuals great or something. The ones who hated it said the opposite.

In this case, ALL the reviews praise the visuals, the acting, shit like that. They just disagree on the depth. In a case like this you do genuinely just have to watch the movie to know if you'll like it or not.

If only people had the mindset for what this was trying to be.

If this movie got the support it deserved, IT would be up there with Fast and the Furious and Transformers.

We;d be getting GHOST IN THE SHELL in place of some other bullshit. This movie is better than most of the high-grossing schlock we get these days.

If only people were less narrow minded.

>>81141980
SO HOT

My biggest issue is with the Major's personality.

The Major is the kind of person that can be confident and in control, even when in the body of a little girl.
Scarjo's Major, though, was self-absorbed and let her emotions run her decisions.

To me, that was the biggest flaw of the movie; making the Major seem vulnerable.

>>81142043
This is very true. Eh, I'm in no rush, I'll wait for the dollar theatre to get it.

>>81142079

Oh fuck fast was the other trailer I saw. My mind must have not committed it to HD space.

>>81141980
she's so cute outside of the suit though. when she's just in her streets with a tank top and a hoodie she's heartmelting.

>>81142079
>This movie is better than most of the high-grossing schlock we get these days.
I 100% agree.

Fuck I want to kill myself with how poorly its being received by critics when it truly should be respected for all the dedication that went into making this.

She didnt seem like a robot.

In the original the major would get these looks on her face that made her seem batshit crazy, it made her seem alien, because she was.

Major is an abstraction. There are no actresses, much less women at all who look like major. Scarjo isnt a bad option at all.

>>81142326
if they cast an asian and made her wear that thered still be complaints.

>capeshit actress lead
>someone went at the story with a retard bat
>shitty CGI errywhere
>slapped the gits name onto it for brand recognition instead of making their own thing. they changed it enough that it barely needed to be associated with the source content.

it was a s cashgrabby as it gets

Well that's pretty dumb. What a shame, SAC 2nd GIG was probably my favorite GitS thing, weak stand alone episodes excluded.

This movie seems like a really weird mix of homages to the original, but with story elements more lifted from SAC.

Haven't decided whether I want to see it or not yet.

>>81142386

This is a valid point.

I would say "fuck them nobody cares" but censor everything perpetually outraged homovan faggots are going to move from the safe spaces of universities to elected offices.

They will make the PMRC look like the ACLU.

>>81142386
Not to mention Major doesnt fucking look asian in the anime anyway

Pause that diddly famalam, I don't think that's the truth. The world building was absolutely fine and done very well. The discussion with the president of the African Federation, the liver to drink like law school, the I'm human "just the way I like it", the "I don't want to scare the dogs", the invasion of Kuze's hideout that featured the back alley enhancements, the city's entire world's best futuristic lipstick on a pig feel, and everything else was en pointe.

The problem of this film:
>First
it was a weak amnesia identity plot plain and simple
>Second
The characterization for most characters were hollow and provided no connection to the viewer
>Third
The film forgot i's "why" and focused on dazzling and faithful visuals while losing most of the substance found in the the Luddite questions and the intro to Transhumanism pontification rife within the franchise
>Fourth
They just couldn't leave race alone, lol. I would have perfered that she was just Major Mira whatshername

>>81142438

Nor do 90% of animu bitches.

>>81142415
You should because they really do everything else justice apart from yeah kuze not being as strong as he was in SAC

>>81142461
So why does SJW's want an asian actress to play Major when Major is based off White european features?

Rewatch GitS 1995. There are female robots in a room that look Asian and then compare them to Major. Not the same race

I enjoyed this movie so much because it carried similar elements from 80s, 90s movies so maybe it was my nostalgia reminding me of those but still as a movie fan, people should enjoy this for what it is.

The only way for them to pay for the visual effects was for them to sell it as a blockbuster. In order to sell it as a blockbuster, it needed a popular actress as a lead.

There aren't any Japanese A/B-list actresses.

>>81142557
And also, they COULD have made a deep philosophical Netflix show or even HBO maybe but the budget wouldnt have been as big as this one and they wouldnt have been allowed to have big practical sets.
