Ghost in the Shell
In the year 2029, the barriers of our world have been broken down by the net and by cybernetics, but this brings new vulnerability to humans in the form of brain-hacking. When a highly-wanted hacker known as 'The Puppetmaster' begins involving them in politics, Section 9, a group of cybernetically enhanced cops, are called in to investigate and stop the Puppetmaster.

It's Bulgarian native singing 🇧🇬 Today marks day of Slavonic Alphabet & Bulgarian Culture. Balkan Slavs, aka, native/aliens.
unlabelledView post →I mean, if I'd directed such a world-changing, genre-defining artistic masterwork as the original Ghost in the Shell movie, I'd avoid Fallout 4's main quest like the plague as well
unlabelledView post →The year is 2026. We have a new Ghost in the Shell anime, a new Higurashi anime, a new Patlabor anime, a new Utena movie, a new Madoka Magica movie, Touhou 06 is coming out AGAIN too. This must've been what those Star Wars fans felt like when the sequels were first announced
unlabelledView post →I think I forgot what a tour de force in every way Ghost in the Shell is. Was the manga as interested in the philosophical as the movie?
unlabelledView post →Watched the first two episodes of the new Ghost in the Shell anime- I prefer the more contemplative and philosophical overtones of the 1995 film, and this show so far is a bit too frantic for my tastes, but it’s still a lot of fun. The character designs and colors are super vibrant.

unlabelledView post →I rewatched Ghost in the Shell! The movie was 1h 23m long. This movie is a classic, and it still slaps! My favorite part of this movie when I was younger was the action, and as an adult I now also appreciate the deep story and philosophy! The sci-fi setting goes crazy as well, it's an awesome movie!

unlabelledView post →Watched the first episode of the new Ghost in the Shell anime. As a fan since the original manga, it was great to see an adaptation that adheres closely to the style and tone of the original. Super fans of Oshii's film and Stand Alone Complex are going to get whiplash from Gremlin Motoko 😂
unlabelledView post →Saw Ghost in the Shell in the theater, I've seen this movie MANY times, watched it on loop as a teen, but I haven't seen it in maybe 10-12 years. I'm happy to report It's EVEN MORE TRANS & GAY than I remembered, thank you GitS for blasting my teen brain with the queer medicine it desperately needed

unlabelledView post →Then there’s original Ghost in the Shell film, where the Puppet asks for political asylum and then argues it can’t be denied based on not being alive because they can’t prove its not alive only for Aramaki to say “Huh, good point there. However we don’t grant asylum to criminals.”
unlabelledView post →I'm so happy the next Ghost in the Shell looks so good. Being someone who likes Ghost in the Shell after that live action movie is like a humiliation ritual, nothing ever goes right. Until now
unlabelledView post →Not Evangelion but Happy 30th Anniversary to Ghost in the Shell, one of Mamoru Oshii's best and a film that changed my life.
unlabelledView post →Finally got to see Ghost in the Shell at a real movie theatre, still the best movie about an AI safety incident ever made Incredibly prescient film about the world we're currently living in, one of those bits of 80s/90s scifi that only gets more relevant with age letterboxd.com/josephpolita...

unlabelledView post →GHOST IN THE SHELL 2: INNOCENCE (2004) is absolutely the superior film to GHOST IN THE SHELL (1995), many of us are just so attached to the legacy of the original and the popular iconography of how we expect to see Major Motoko Kusanagi in it to fully come to grips with it
unlabelledView post →Is the new Ghost in the Shell a good entry point for newcomers based on the first episode? Or should I at least watch the original film that I’ve owned for like 10 years?

unlabelledView post →Scarlett Johansson as Motoko in Ghost in the Shell. That film is extremely racist.
unlabelledView post →I rarely do this sort of style, so I figured I could try another go at it. With moody Ghost in the Shell movie ambient music playing in the background...🤷
unlabelledView post →I don't think I've ever unsubscribed from a youtube channel for a movie opinion before but "I liked the Ghost in the Shell movie with Scarlett Johansson, I will never watch the anime or read the manga and I'm sure that makes me a bad person but I'm fine with that" turned out to be a red line, huh.

unlabelledView post →Seeing them go back to more og manga style made me thing the cursed thought of "The Ghost in the Shell movie is the Metroid Prime of Ghost in the Shell"
unlabelledView post →Something I'm so pleased by is the characterization of the major in the movie. She isn't an anime girl at all. There is nothing cute or demure about the way she moves or speaks. This is a non binary dyke. It's called Ghost in the SHELL because we're watching her egg get CRACKED

unlabelledView post →In terms of "anime franchise I have collectively expressed the most love for", probably Ghost in the Shell. The 1995 film is really foundational in the kinds of movies/TV I enjoy and how I enjoy them that I could probably talk in circles about it.

unlabelledView post →In 1988 & 1989, before the iconic Ghost in the Shell, Masamune Shirow released a manga & film called Dominion Tank Police!, a concept that at the time seemed so outrageous that it could only appear in anime but is now a reality that many find the idea of defunding to be too radical.

unlabelledView post →One of my ongoing bits is pointing out that pretty much every weird or oppressive thing in our cybernetic present was accurately predicted by the animes Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex (2002-2005, or the original 1995 film) or by Serial Experiments Lain (1998). The og GitS film got this one.
unlabelledView post →In our case, I think this happened most resonantly with Oshii's Ghost in the Shell. I showed them the film and within a week they showed it to someone else.
unlabelledView post →One last post before bed but I own more copies of Ghost in the Shell than any other film, each copy different enough from all the others to justify the purchase.
unlabelledView post →GHOST IN THE SHELL (Mamoru Oshii, 1995 Oshii is one of our most philosophically profound filmmakers. This one covers technology, gender, identity, the forces in society which bind us. Fun stuff. The Major's disassociation speaks to something intrinsic about my own experiences for whatever reason.

unlabelledView post →Yeah Roger Ebert brought up Heavy Metal as a clear influence in his off-the cuff assessment of the Ghost in the Shell movie and well, not surprised he was right on the money.
unlabelledView post →“Director” number three waxed ecstatic about the Black communities love of anime and how he couldn’t have made the film without AI. It was Ghost in the Shell meets Demon City Shinjuku with more boobs and lesbians. Oddly, no Black characters or much dialogue for that matter. Groundbreaking
