If Japan is happy about Hollywood GitS, why aren't you?

If Japan is happy about Hollywood GitS, why aren't you?

Japan's taste is shit, you should know this by now.

Because the nips are documented to have shit taste.

>I know them Japanese cartoons better than native Japanese!!!!

>Those hwhaitu pigus havu suchu shitto tasto in movies!

It's just that they tend to rate stuff based on pure enjoyment rather than actual critical value which Sup Forums is so fond of

>actual critical value which Sup Forums is so fond of
Maybe they are not taking their own cartoons for teenagers that serious as local weebs do.

I don't trust Hollywood to do a competent adaptation. Most are terrible in general.

Well yes, people who watc anime probably know it better than people who don't.

Hollywood is garbage so it fits the Japanese taste perfectly, on the other hand I do not enjoy garbage so I am not happy to be served it.

>If Japan is happy about Hollywood GitS
They're not though

>Well yes, people who watc anime probably know it better than people who don't.

Foreigners can't know something better than native local Japanese people who create and consume it.
Hell you don't even understand Japanese and wait for subs, your delusion about "good taste" in anime is just laughable.

I never cared for live-actions.

>than native local Japanese people who create and consume it
So tell me:
1) What percentage of the adult Japanese population watches anime? And I mean watches more than the occasional movie.
2) What percentage of the adult Japanese population work in the anime industry?

You will find that these numbers are rather small.

well, i'm sort of excited i guess. I have no doubt this film will be totally inferior to the original movie and SAC. From the trailer, Motoko comes off as less confident and more at odds with her existence, Deus EX HR style, which is super gay. And look at what they did to Batou. But, there's nothing wrong with enjoying a popcorn thriller.

also the severe lack of Togusa hurts my feelings.

Enough to never give a shit about foreigners (most companies never even produce their products for other countries). They have good DVD/BD sales and millions of people watch anime on TV, you don't need to be an anime Sup Forums-expert who knows everything about subs and Daiz to watch it in Japan.

>2) What percentage of the adult Japanese population work in the anime industry?

What kind of retarded question is that? Every single one of Japanese anime studios are located in Japan. Lots of people work for it, giants like Sony and Aniplex produce it and let millions of Japanese people watch anime and play anime games.

Don't even try to sell me that "anime is niche in Japan" bullshit.

You are misunderstanding me. Very few adults in Japan are actually invested (emotionally or financially) in anime. So it only stands to reason that the broad populace does not care about things like the authenticity of a hollywood adaptation.

Why would I be happy about anything hollywood?

I'd be happy about a giant fucking explosion in Hollywood.

And just for the CIA bots: No, I neither live in the US, nor do I know anything about explosives.

> Japan is happy about Hollywood GitS
[citation needed]

the number of 'adult' is very high.

I'm excited about it because if it's successful cyberpunk might get bigger.

ouch

Grass is always greener on the other side. That is why white sub-urban shit lords are so into anime even though it has nothing to do with their own pop culture.

The same way Japanese are attracted to Hollywood and foreign culture, because your local culture seems boring if you grew up with it.

>Why would I be happy about anything hollywood?
Because they are very weak for the "american culture".

Damn that poster looks good. I still won't watch it though.

but...what about takeshi

No, I'm not watching it. I'm not giving Hollywood my shekels

I'm more or less indifferent. I won't watch it in theatres, but I'll probably download it at some point after its out on dvd/bluray/etc. If its bad, then whatever. I can still watch the original whenever I want.

Japan was happy about Gundam Seed Destiny and SAO.

That should be a good enough sign to not trust Japan's taste.

>Japan is a hivemind

>not fucking pirating it for free

>It's just that they tend to rate stuff based on pure enjoyment rather than actual critical value
>actual critical value
I don't give 2 shits about critical value

West liked SAO too, your point?

>ever considering watching it

The west has shit taste too.

How the fuck else does Scarlett keep getting hired?

Because it looks like it will be shit.

I don't like Scarlett but she's not a bad actress. She's just absolutely not action actress with her pathetic midget height and physical shape.

>she's not a bad actress
Well sure, but there's the problem that she can't fucking act.

Takeshi's not enough to save a shitty movie, especially in a supporting role and in a movie marketed to audiences that largely have no idea who he is.

btw guys if you really want to see this trash just find a free way to watch it please, I don't want more shitty adaptations

>there's nothing wrong with enjoying a popcorn thriller
when your support means more bastardized and unoriginal garbage adaptations in the future, yes there is

i'm a hedonist.

I'm a nihilist

>Guy who did The Huntsman

Could've at least gotten Ridley Scott or guy who did District 9 to do it. A competent director.

All this will do is make normalfags think they belong in this hobby like Capeshit has tricked them into.

Oh look it's another of these threads
>everyone who share the same nationality have the identical opinion about things
>human beings are literally incapable of thinking outside of the collective
>I know all these things thanks to my vast knowledge of world coltures gathered on the internet

Nice source there, buddy.

>Japan
>good taste
Japan's pop-culture is so liberal and gay (in non-insulting way) they don't really care about quality or acting or whatever, especially youth. They are all just retarded.

Not to mention that they claim shit like "Japan is happy about Hollywood GitS" based on a single tweet or image. OP is literally Sup Forums-tier.

>LOOK AT THIS RANDOM QUOTE! ___NIGGERS ETERNALLY BTFO

do you think shirow will get pissed regarding his works?

The live-action GitS is almost certainly go to be better by the simple fact (assumption) that it is going to have an actual plot and characters.

Anons go back to the original movie and tell me how much of the movie wasn't endless exposition on philosophy. Batou is the only person in the entire '95 film that comes closest to a character.

Fuck off, Scarlett

Seriously, go back to it. It's literally someone reading their entry-level philosophy discoveries to you.

GitS is just a blade runner ripoff anyway.

>bastardized and unoriginal garbage adaptations in the future

There's nothing original in GitS dude.

See

?

I'm talking about source material you troglodyte, instead of just making bad remakes and adaptations people should come up with new ideas

because Japan are westaboos

Because they fetishize white womyn. Which holy fuck, how cucked do you have to be to do that?

White women are trash.

thiccfags are truly a plague upon this Earth

Where can I find this?

>instead of just making bad remakes and adaptations people should come up with new ideas

You really think that Hollywood is ever going to come up with new ideas?

The fact that they've adapted GitS as a live-action movie basically means they've gone through the bottom of the barrel to the concrete below.

Speaking of live-action anime, I feel like they missed a chance not making a live-action 3x3 Eyes in the vein of those 80s fantasy films.

Because I don't find older jewish women attractive and she's a terrible actor.

>I'm talking about source material

Is not original either.

...

it's annoying that Asian-American actors don't get movie roles in Asian movies and instead we have to look at some white bitch because that's what the producers thought would move tickets

also it ruins my immersion

...

You're only further reinforcing my point by saying that this is a 3+ generation adaptation

Japanese people think every country is ethnically monolithic like they are, so they hear American GITS and they think "obviously it is filled with Americans" and of course to them "American" means white American, or possibly also black American.

It's like if they learned someone did a version of TTGL with cats instead of people, they'd think it was funny and not really care.

But it is? The GitS is one of the core inspirations of cyberpunk as a genre.

After seeing the original in cinema last night I can safely say nothing the live-action adaptation does will be better than what Oshii achieved.

It's style is I guess, but a lot of things were done before and better in blade runner and neuromancer.

I mean, blade runner doesn't have entire conversations built completely out of philosophical monologues.

Oshii set a low bar. All the live-action film has to do is have an actual plot and have characters with something resembling depth.

Blade Runner isn't cyberpunk.

It's subtle, but it definitely is cyberpunk friendo

I feel like GitS 95 and SAC are never going to re-evaluated or reviewed by people outside the anime fandom or people who base their opinion off a fuzzy nostalgic memory of GitS 95.

So it's always going be held in high regard.

Because I'm not stupid and I know I can expect a faithless product rather than a film that is true to the original purpose of GITS

>guy who did District 9
> A competent director.

As much as I like D9, after watching Elysium and Die Antwoord: The Movie, I'm convinced that he just got lucky with D9. His visual effects though, 10/10.

Well , if I remember well enough, Elyseum visual effects were way more appealing than D9.

But well...

I, on the other hand, am American and have exstensive knowledge on explosives and unconventional warfare

I actually think it will do OK at the BO. SJ has a perfect track record of not picking flops.

I'm a dentist

Under the skin was low-key.

Apparently people didn't recognise her during the film of it. Apart from the slightly unnerving lazy eye she has, I think she's hot.

Personally I would put my bank on the new Bladerunner movie to do that rather than the GitS adaptation.

Are you getting her fig Sup Forums?

>Very few adults in Japan are actually invested (emotionally or financially) in anime.
Do you think a lot of adults are "invested", emotionally or financially, in movies in the west? Sure they watch something occasionally, sometimes something interests them so much they even buy a piece of merch, but apart from that?

Nips made Kimi no na wa the best grossing anime ever.
Nuff said.

>they tend to rate stuff based on pure enjoyment rather than actual critical value
So their opinions aren't based on critical thinking and therefore are void of value, uh?

I just cant take the main seriously as an actress

She has permanent pout.

It better have those spider robot things

And?

>shit anime becomes the best grossing anime ever
Duh, I don't know.

>shit anime

Proofs?

I watched it twice, I'm intelligent and I apply critical thinking.
