Ghost in the Shell

Aside from lifting a few classic shots from the anime, it doesn't appear ( at least from the trailers I've seen) that the story is very similar. Hope I'm wrong because visually I like what I've seen so far.

I just wish all the articles comparing this to The Matrix would just stop.

 

You'd think that any film critic over the age of 20 would know that Ghost in the Shell came first, and its cyberpunk ethos influenced the Wachowskis, not vice versa.

 

Amen brother!

 

If this stays 'on story' - then this could be the film of the year.

 

Ghost worked because of the humanity disconnect - the major never found what she was seeking, and that in itself was highly satisfying.

Great to see Bhattu in the car!

 

Cannot wait!

I have hope but this is a director who knows how to make things look good and not much else. He's good at being able to present appealing images. It isn't to say this couldn't be where we see an evolution of him as a director but I'd feel much more confident if it were in the hands of someone like Villeneuve or Garland, both of whom early in the careers have shown they have a grasp on things like story.

 

Still, I will see it.
