what went wrong?

Shit movie based on shit anime

>>85228180
DUMBED DOWN THE STORY, MADE IT A FORMULAIC BETRAYAL/REVENGE FLICK

BUT THEY COULDN'T RUIN THE SETTING TOO MUCH

STILL LOOKED GREAT IN IMAX 3D

>>85228180
had all the aesthetic, none of the heart

>>85228180

Instead of focusing on one clear, concise story, they did a half-assed composite of several different GitS plots all at once.

At least the movie looked cool, I guess.

i'm watching now and it has to be one of the most visually pleasing films i have seen. is it actually shit or are normies just upset because scarlett is white?

This movie got me a thresome with a friend and his girl.

I cucked the shiit out of him that day... and still do behind his back

I'm human trash, and absolutely loved this movie, it flows very naturally and suberb atmosphere... honestly if you dont like this movie what is wrong with you???

For studio product to be any good you need to have a willful personality captaining the production, somebody who has clout and can say "No" and really gives a shit about the movie.

Instead of having that, GiTS 2017 was produced by laughable retard Avi Arad (he used to be the CEO of ToyBiz before failing-upwards into the movie industry -- this guy knows nothing about movies or story), who in turn hired some jerkoff TV commercials and music video director he could bully into submission.

Story

>>85228180
they used the original gits movie and changed the story (no puppet master) to tell an origin story of the main character.

if i had never seen the anime movie gits or read the manga then i would've liked it.

>>85228567
>had all the aesthetic
shut the fuck up retard

>>85228180
It's shallow as fuck

>>85229257

"Monster" by John Gregory Dunne is a great postmorterm of how shitty movies get made despite everyone involved trying their best. It's a short read and pretty entertaining.

>>85229257
Seconded for interest.
I've read Corman's book and want to read some more about successful producers.

>>85228180
>what went wrong?
Literally fucking everything, what a disgraceful pile of shit. They should be ashamed of ripping off the iconic scenes of the original, they didn't earn the right.

Changed the question from 'what am I?' to 'who am I?' Mashed together the antagonists from the first movie and the second season of the show into one generic pointless character.

>>85228180
>what went wrong?

trying to make an animu into a movie, name a animu translated into movie that actually worked...

>>85229485

Also the uncut documentary about the making of Alien 3, called Wreckage and Rage, which shows you what happens when directors do battle with the studio.

The Sony hack emails up on Wikileaks are also incredibly revealing, all the executives and producers asinine "notes" on screenplays and test screenings.

That's a fat android.

EDGE OF TOMORROW WAS UNIRONICALLY BETTER THAN ALL YOU NEED IS KILL

BUT THATS A RARE EXAMPLE

AND ADAPTING SOME UNKNOWN LN AND ITS SPINOFF MANGA ISN'T THE SAME AS ADAPTING GHOST IN THE SHELL

>>85230117
you left your caps on bro

There's 2 ways to think about it: "there's this ok movie that happens to be the adaptation of one of the greatest anime films of all time" and "there's this awful adaptation of one of the greatest anime films of all time".

Plot-wise, it is completely understandable what they did, even if it was made in Japan it'd have made sense, Japanese film industry does the same, proof is that only in Japan it made several times more than the original adjusted for inflation (although it probably also has a lot to do with its rating and having Hollywood actors play the parts).

Visually, the entire movie was eye-candy, the soundtrack is generic, they could have used the original which is a masterpiece but I think they wanted to avoid such a strong association as a gesture of respect towards the source material.

The acting was ok, the lead had the weakest delivery, but she looked good in the suit (mostly thanks to the suit itself). I think it was a crime not to cast Perlman as Batou, but the danish guy who played him felt oddly relatable and did the most credible friendzone I've ever seen. Togusa was supposed to be the rookie but the actor who played him looked old enough to have unironically wore a mullet back in the day. Binoche was by far the best actress despite her character being an OC lesbian scientist. The dude who played puppet master looks like a lady and apparently he is married to a lady that looks like dude.

Instead of the development of philosophical themes we have plenty of controversy (is becoming white the ultimate upgrade?) for a fairly standard sci-fi detective drama turned into a love-story.

>>85229194
Yeah I watched it yesterday and I was shook at how good it looks. It's beautiful. It's very well put together and the characters are great. Good movie desu.

I Am A Hero, if you're fine with the source material turned into a generic yet entertaining action movie.

Whoever designed the poster was having a little too much fun with themselves. No one probably even bothered to check it until it was finished and ready to get distributed to theaters.

The movie was actually decent. I never gave a shit about the Chinese cartoon it was based on.

>DUDE HOLOGRAMS LMAO

Style over substance basically
Same as total recall and robocop's reboots

The worst part of this is that the director is so fucking proud of the finished product that we won't be getting ANY deleted footage

>combine the Puppet Master and Kuze into one antagonist who is both and neither at the same time
>AMNESIA
>reducing the entire philosophy of the original film to one sentence, and spoonfeeding it to the audience three times within the first 20 mins
>90% of the dialogue is expository

>super mysterious flashbacks that will be spoonfed until it's time for the big dumb reveal

This.
Only people who think it's shit are fanboys. Not saying it's great either, but definitely not as bad as people make it out to be.

Looked like a shittier version of Blade Runner in live action

I don't think Jews in Hollywood understand videogames or anime and why people like them

If it wasn't an origin story it could have been goat but here we are.

>>85228180

It didn't give a shit about the source material. The writing was shit. The direction was dull.

They took a generic summer blockbuster and slapped on a familiar IP. That never works.

How I Made a Hundred Movies in Hollywood and Never Lost a Dime

>>85228180
I stopped watching during the body's manufacture because it was just a sexless ken/barbie doll. That completely changes the dynamics of the entire world the Major lives in. They literally just remove physical sexuality. I'm sure it is the Jews fault.

>>85228326
This guy got it, plus the twist just seemed like they wanted to spite the people who hated the casting.

>>85230750
Upwards pointed triangles, according to Masonic symbolism, also mean the penis.

>>85230117
90% of the movie is great, but then the shoehorned hollywood ending pretty much ruined the good efforts. could had been a classic, but end up being a 7.5/10

my name is Major and i give my consent

This movie is near future instead of science fiction.

The charm of the animation didnt translate into film, a lot of the drama was lost.

It was too faithful to the source, almost shot for shot. The story and characters needed to be adapted for film.

The tension, mystique, and cerebral qualities of the anime didnt translate into american movie glamour.
It had a lot of good imagery, concepts, and acting but none of it comes together, its not disengenuous like transformers but it had the same problems.

TLDR:Faithful adaptation fails at telling a story in the language of film.

So, I don't care that this movie was bad like there was no way of it not being, but what really scares me is whether or not the new Blade Runner is going to be bad. It can't be bad though, right? Not with the Goose!

>>85237086
Does it really matter when you have idiots who will nitpick it to death and claim it's shit just because they can.

>>85228180
It took inspiration from the Mamoru Oshi flick instead of the Stand Alone Complex series. Also, Liberals got booty blasted because the Major was played by Scarlet Johansson instead of Rinko from pacific Rim.
