    Motoko Kusanagi the Ghost in the Shell.  I based her mostly on the 1995 anime. I went through a few versions of this, trying a more asian look as well. Though I felt it strayed further away from the idea that is Motoko. Maybe I’ll get time to come back to her, the purple hair and red eyes is an older version. Hope you like it.

    1. I though the visuals were superb throughout. You can see where the money was spent. For me it truly felt like they recreated the look and feel of the original. I do think they overdid it with the giant people-holograms on the buildings though. It became a bit comical when you had two characters having a serious discussion only to have a 50 foot jogger in the background. Also, a bit too much unnecessary slomo at times. For the most part cinematography is pretty ace with a lot of imagery pulled straight from the original.

     

    2. The thing about those three scenes is that they all feature Scarlett in a skin-tight bodysuit. So of course the rest of the movie isn't as good... Except dat ending.

     

    3. The music just sort of faded into the background for me during most of the film, I'm afraid.

    Don't be surprised about holograms and being giant around buildings.  We already have giant banners and tv screens advertising like that.  Just not hologram.

    I was being ironic so let me break down the posts for you guys (Hey jonny!)

     

    Klingo comes and posts some female bodybuilders saying " If people want athletic women they look like this.".  Her point is that athletic females look gross and Scarjo is a better choice, what she doesn't seem to get is that those are female bodybuilders AND they look better than Scarjo. I come in smugly and ironically post the male equivalent of those bodybuilding women, to show that bodying building =/= athletic.

     

    This is concludes todays breakin it down with Jimbo

    I'm a guy.  But I wanted to point out those pics I posted are Crossfit women and are not bodybuilders but athletes because they train their bodies for competitions like running, swimming, climbing, etc.  If posters want Scarjo to be athletic to do moves of the Major she would have have to have a body like Crossfit or a gymnast.

    This movie is a visual treat with a lot of things you really haven't seen before and some great action .  Pretty damn good but will be interested to see if it can find an wide audience.  

     

    LOL at saying Scarlett isn't athletic enough.  She damn well looks it and more than pulls it off.  Oh, and this....

    Saw first 12 mins. That Clint Mansell score. That 3D and those visuals. That hint of Kenji Kawai (his theme will appear in the end credits for sure). Everything else...getting a very, uhh....Assassin's Creed vibe from this? Anyway, need to see this again (which I am in IMAX tomorrow) and the full film obviously - for which expectations are lowered and in check.

    Haven't seen Assassin's Creed so don't know what the reference is.  But I'm guessing it doesn't sound good.

    So back to square one. We don't know how much faith they have in this.

    Well so far they've change the origin of the Major and I think I know what is happening in the story.  It looks like a mix of different plots going on in the animated movie as well as tv series.  Its like they grabbed different scenes and put them all in one.  Perhaps they are showing Major and her team fighting crime but could be a larger plot connected to it all.
