Posted by Snakebite on 07.23.2007, 04:42 PM: It depends on what you like, I personally didn't think much to it either. It probably could of done with a better plot, you need to watch it a few times for it to make sence.

Posted by Saddletank on 07.23.2007, 06:10 PM: The first GITS movie was excellent, very interesting premise, great artwork, excellent use of CGI, fair to middling plot, a wee bit of fanservice but on the whole very good indeed - quite a cerebral ending, quite philosophical. The second GITS movie was a bit too much up its own arse I thought, took itself a bit too seriously and was a bit too clever graphics wise, but still nice to watch. Some superb fight scenes though.

Posted by Saddletank on 07.31.2007, 04:15 AM: Hi filter and welcome to the forums. Hope you enjoy your stay. Generally its rude to advertise other forums though, people are here because they like it, the place has its own unique feel and community and is small and cosy. Everyone is capable of finding other forums if they want to, so my advice is don't advertise.

Posted by fuji on 08.01.2007, 11:54 PM: I did not fully like Ghost in the Shell until the second time I saw it. Ghost in the shell has a lot of small plots and characters to follow each with very subtle contributions to the overall story. It takes a while to get used to the pace and style of Mamoru Oshii films.

Posted by Saddletank on 11.17.2007, 07:05 AM: After a huge break in watching the 2nd GIG (series) at about ep.9 I am back to watching it again. I stopped before because Real Life (tm) came along but also other anime and I wasn't quite in the mood for techy sci-fi anime. But the other day I bought Solid State Society and enjoyed it so much I started on 2nd GIG again.

Posted by ={HSA}= MORO on 11.30.2007, 08:29 AM: just wondering.

Posted by Maho_Fushida on 11.30.2007, 08:34 AM: In a word, yeah. Sci-fi is just not my thing at all, but this is different as it addresses things like what is the mind, the soul, the human identity, the personality.

Posted by Roarkiller on 11.30.2007, 09:01 AM: Try Freedom then. It's got the same style as Akira, and was pretty darn good when I saw it last week at the animation festival.

Posted by frigidchill on 11.30.2007, 09:29 AM: Only just recently re-watched this with my friends. Still as good as I remembered it. Being the psychological trip that it is, it's right up my street - much to the horror of my flat mates by the way. They're quite content with 'chick-flicks' and action films. Honestly, it aint a good thing unless some element of the human psyche is questioned.
