Having to catchup with internship due to funeral.

Also, too many clinically insane people in vicinity.

I would say, that while the aesthetics might be considered HK like, it is still very much Japan- the whole HK was to put the aesthetic of overpopulation and probably nothing more than that. (I do however agree that the film may deviate from original context to a more blurry area- but still, I st...

I am still not convinced as to why a film needs to be made up to the same demographic as the country being made in, when the original material is quite on the contrary.

(there is also the wonderful example of Kite where....GITS could end up in which would be horrifying)

In Japan, one would say that it is more the bureaucracy that is at the reins than the corporations (essentially, the banks are at the mercy of the Financial Services Agency that used to be part of the Finance Ministry, the Finance Ministry decides how much budget the Ministry of Land and Infrast...

removing the gay from this cover would be like removing any reference to iron man from the cover of the first movie it makes no fucking sense Might be so they can stealth market it to crazy people down south. They will all watch it and then magically everything becomes more tolerable for the so-cal...

If they decide to make it, they better keep the context (which is part of the identity of Ghost in the Shell). If they decided to turn it into a 'Security Service's Super Secret Special Scion Story' which would be.... not the most atypical thing about, they don't need to go a...

It was made specifically at the time when Japan's public security police's shady operation people were being made.... relatively public (i.e. people know it exists, but nothing more than that) There is also the whole conundrum of career bureaucrats vs. raised from the bottom technocr...

Hamsters are very virile. Definitely could have hanky panky with more than 1000 lady hamsters in a relatively short span of time. (I had multiple pairs of hamsters and I definitely know; had to separate them to prevent the mountains of hamster pups) I always thought that vampires outside of ...

Might be a highly anthropomorphised account of a hamster.

While I may disapprove of some of the things described, I would say that none of them are physically impossible. (And I have not seen TYT in a while which was bit of a nostalgia for me)

It really depends on time frame really.

For films that I actually liked, in no particular order (probably release date but oh well) The Raid 2 THE [email protected] MOVIE Kagayaki no Mukōgawa e! The Lego Movie The Grand Budapest Hotel Captain America: The Winter Soldier Edge of Tomorrow (I have some major quibbles with this chap, but...

Toyota is essentially giving out its patents on its hydrogen fuel cell for free.

I think they are having this kind of discussion here

I think one of the more 'Japanese' aspect of Ghost in the Shell which I think should have remained is in fact in the setting itself. Public Security Police (Koan) is very much a Japanese organisation that has its sleazy ways, connections up and down, and the part of the depiction of ...

I guess things like kg is like that but Celsius is based on water boiling and all that. (I guess also candelas is also quite wonderful. They have all that platinum at how many degrees but they all know it is based on some arbitrary candle- why not candle infused with gunpowder...?)

Kelvin twitches me in different ways to Fahrenheit because being forced to use it and piles and piles of paper and graphs and oh Emperor the horror.

Bah. Fahrenheit. Bah.

Monk Ed wrote:It's 22.2 degrees

That's better. Well, you people are lucky i guess.

That is actually an interesting detail. Would there be a source on it?

It's all fine when it is 2D. Everything else outside the 2D realm peeves me (especially on topics like this)- this part has not changed it seems, for me. -->Dark elves in doojon frolicking upon the excavation point of the posterior? All good. Real life homo sapien sapien doing the same t...

What in the name of all that is holy, did I just read.....
