What is wrong with Ghost in the Shell?
The anime is great. The recent remake is flashy but lacks the souls of the original. It wasn't as bad as some critical and box office perform made out, but when a remake is worse than the original, what's the point?
I mean nothing is as good as the original Manga. But each has changed the story a little to make it interesting. The live action was above average in my book. Not talking Blade Runner levels but enjoyed it.
Yes, it was better than I expected given the reviews and audience scores. It was quite pretty.
The (live action) movie sucked big time.
In what way?
In all of the ways, mostly. But most particularly in that it's neither authentic or enjoyable. It's just soulless cgi trash.
I liked it
Nothing wrong with being in the minority opinion on something.
Thanks. I'm not very clever with stuff like this. Remakes have no surprising content. We know what's going to happen even if it's roughly the same story. So long as I have the happy to watch it again feeling then I say it's a good movie.
I beg to differ. After watching it again recently they used plenty of practical effects mixed with cgi. Hell it is a light year better than any recent Marvel or DC movies even. Few notes is the changes to the story. Which has been done each version away from the manga. The chief is amazing speaking only Japanese and fully rocking that roll. I hear many complain about the movie yet cannot sight actual examples that ruin the experience other than it is not like the anime. But if you have been following it like me since the original manga you know it is always been changed a little. But who would just want to keep watching the same thing over and over again in a different form.
Not interested in arguing with you. The box office, reviews, and general fan opinion disagree with you. It's perfectly okay to like something most others don't.
It's called debating not arguing. If you cannot back up your own personal statement then I suggest your go back to Reddit. Or at least try trolling better.
I suggest you eat a dick, and go back to lurking incel subs shit head.
