is it shit or shittier tier ?

why

What did you think? Also, how familiar are you with the GitS franchise?

Really wish they'd stop casting non-Japanese actors/actresses for movies whose source material is from Japan. Fucking hell...

It's visually amazing. Enough visual ties to the source movie to make it feel connected, but it's a standalone movie in its own right. Shit script tho

because I'm familiar with the franchise

see above - movies only

It wasn't that shitty, it got the job done imo

This is recognised and explained in the film. Major is japanese in this movie

might just have been ScarJo's delivery

Fgt

Not OP, but as a long time fan of the manga and subsequent series I actually loved it.
It was a 2 hour Easter egg of shit only hardcore fans would recognize. Beat Takashi is a total badass. I typically hate Scarlett Johansson for anything other than porn and didn't find her atrocious as the major.
They made changes to some things (Batou is not full prosthetic, the majors mother is alive and didn't die in a plane crash), but they nailed the feeling flawlessly. They mainly focused on the feel of the Oshii movie; but touched on every other iteration to some degree large or small.
This movie is for fans and it's rewarding to fans. If you're not a fan, don't see it.

I actually thought she did well, what didn't you like about her performance specifically?

RECOMEND ME A MOVIE TO WATCH

Old or New - has to be HD Streamable. Thanks nig nogs.

City of God,
watching it rn it's pretty good so far; apparently a cult classic I think

Do you say the same for US/European stuff that is remade for the japanese market?

just her diction, but she may have just been playing the emotionless android over the enslaved human. She was good enough

Scarjo show tits?

Came here to post this

rear sideboob for a nanosecond. All the other scenes have a skintight bodysuit

On whitewashing:
The GitS series is all about trading ones identity away for the benefits of existence in a better-than-human life. As such, race is a construct hardly even recognized anymore in the series. The major is Japanese; but isn't made to look that way at all as a cyborg.
Not to mention the fact that anime/manga was designed to caricature westerners. Big eyes ring a bell? People bitching about whitewashing clearly haven't done their homework on the origins of that style of animation. If anything is racist it's Japan's portrayal of westerners. Don't see us crying about that.

Sure, the dialogue wasn't as deeply interesting as anything else in GITS, but it had just enough of those slower introspective moments for me. They go by quick, but I appreciated that they were sprinkled in there.

Thanks but already scene it great film! Its to ingrained in my head.

Nice. Love her titties

Lame

they're alright I guess

the shitty phone camera kinda ruins it tbh

By the way, don;t bother with the cam torrent. 75% of Beat's subtitles are cut off by the framing so you miss a lot of exposition

she's an android. Even if she did show tits, she doesn't have nipples

Oh yeah, fcking iPhone 4 in 2014. Thought this bitch was rich?

>rear sideboob for a nanosecond
That'll do, I'll be going to the cinema tommorow

practical instead of frivolous

shit, her ass makes up for it I'd say

The anime had nipples

For naked Scarlet, watch "under the skin"

Kek yes practical. Yet the idea of taking mad nudes is frivolous.

Dude Scarlett's dumper is on point beautiful

give me 3 minutes, I might save you a trip

Like I said, shitty cam

ty

I really wish they just went for the rated R on this shit. I heard there was a lot more gore, but they cut it down for that PG-13 rating.
Whatever it takes to bring in the box office money (which they didn't really) I guess.

I'm from the UK where it has a 12A rating. There was a 9 year old girl watching. There's a few jumpscares and Major's rebuilding is a bit 'fifth element' body-forming, as well as the body splitting at the end, but no, no gore at all

No joke, the only screening I could catch on opening day with some friends was at 11pm and when we got there, a couple showed up with their toddler whining and crying.
I heard the woman tell the kid to stop and heard a slap.

The rest of the movie, I didn't hear that kid.

I'm glad I saw it on a shit stream because I'm glad I didn't pay for it. Not bad but don't except anything close to manga/anime.

How come I'm also a GITS fan and liked this movie?
I'm really confused why some hate it and some love it.

didn;t hate it. Loved the effort put into it and the fact it was greenlit in the first place.

Just think, they could have done Akira first and completely fucked it up

Yeah I honestly don't know how they would adapt Akira. Especially considering what happens to Tetsuo, it'd be a little awkward to translate to live action.
GITS on the other hand is definitely more suited to a hollywood live action adaptation since at its most simplest form, it's a police procedural story. I'm glad they went for it as well, and I personally really enjoyed it for what it was (an adaptation).

Plus don't forget, the english traslation of Akira went through 3 translations before anyone could figure out what the fuck it was all about, and even then, it might be way too ambiguous for western audiences. As for realising what happens to Tetsuo, that's not a problem these days, but you can but your arse that 1) it'll be streile and clean as fuck and 2) Kaori's supposed to be 15. No way she's getting her tits out

doubt she'll die either

Yeah, I would just not bother with Akira. I think that a Cowboy Bebop adaptation would be cool though. On a surface level, the space battles remind me of Star Wars and it does take influence from a lot of Western films so it could work pretty well.

Wonder if anyone tried to get a live-action version of Urotsukidoji made?

do you feel bad for supporting hollywood with their new target of milking weaboos and making anime ultimately mainstream material?

Idk about that lol

Script is shit
Scarlet is hot
Visuals are amazings

Nope. Hollywood's been about exploiting popular fads since whenever. Why elkse do you think that untalented while blow-job queen Shirley 'sore knees' temple made so many movies before she hit puberty?

It's on fucking Youtube!

BTW, this is how Akira should be made.
