Texhnolyse is amazing. In its art, in the plot twists and in the kind of philosophical questionings it throws at you

2018-07-17 00:37:21 UTC  

It's like mythically bad or something.

2018-07-17 00:37:32 UTC  

hmm well i havent seen unlimited blade works i should prolly watch it

2018-07-17 00:37:41 UTC  

i don't know, most places stopped having it when UBW came out

2018-07-17 00:37:50 UTC  

it's just fate/stay night, but good

2018-07-17 00:37:56 UTC  

TBH, I didn't like UBW that much.

2018-07-17 00:37:58 UTC  

ohhhh sick fuck yeah i missed out hahaha

2018-07-17 00:38:20 UTC  

they ripped f/sn from deens virgin hands and gave it to chad UFOtable

2018-07-17 00:38:46 UTC  

For me Ghost in the Shell, Texhnolyse and Ergo Proxy are masterpieces because they are so deep. They have a whole philosophy behind them, a lot of heavy stuff to ponder over.

2018-07-17 00:39:00 UTC  

And they all bring it about naturally, without ruining the story

2018-07-17 00:39:22 UTC  

i feel watching Ghost in the Shell would be fun just to see how the newer movie is compared to it

2018-07-17 00:39:25 UTC  

even for a laugh

2018-07-17 00:39:26 UTC  

yeah exposition is the killer of plots

2018-07-17 00:39:35 UTC  

or should i say ESPECIALLY for the laughs

2018-07-17 00:40:00 UTC  

GitS could still hold up a candle to many modern movies and anime

2018-07-17 00:40:12 UTC  

what if they had remade the original gits scene for scene, line for line

2018-07-17 00:40:12 UTC  

FFS Matrix was based off it

2018-07-17 00:40:24 UTC  

Or inspired, however you spin it

2018-07-17 00:40:41 UTC  

Gits 1995 is a classic and remains so.

2018-07-17 00:40:42 UTC  

but is the new movie any good?

2018-07-17 00:40:45 UTC  

Worth a watch.

2018-07-17 00:41:01 UTC  

Good movie. Did not ruin the series.

2018-07-17 00:41:03 UTC  

It's not *bad*, per se, but if you're a fan of the original, it falls short

2018-07-17 00:41:12 UTC  

GiTS: SAC can be a little slow at times and lacks the atmosphere. But it's still good (possibly better) on it's own merits

2018-07-17 00:41:20 UTC  

It is a cash grab, but at least it is true to the origin.

2018-07-17 00:41:26 UTC  

Was too short for me

2018-07-17 00:41:38 UTC  

GiTS: Arise is relatively lacking, but a nice entry if you can avoid spending lots of money to see it.

2018-07-17 00:41:41 UTC  

okok still as long as it doesnt completely crash in a hindenberg-esque flame of suckery

2018-07-17 00:42:05 UTC  

the actress being white was the dumbest complaint ever tbh

2018-07-17 00:42:14 UTC  

@Revan GitS does not have an overarching plot story between installments. Each season is in their own separate timeline

2018-07-17 00:42:25 UTC  

So the movie fits right in

2018-07-17 00:43:09 UTC  

That's not why I said it falls short

2018-07-17 00:43:28 UTC  

In my opinion, it falls short because it dropped a lot of the deeper meaning from the original

2018-07-17 00:43:48 UTC  

@Tohob Actress could have been black male for all I care - she is AN ANDROID, she can look like anything and anyone

2018-07-17 00:44:00 UTC  

yup

2018-07-17 00:44:05 UTC  

A machine with interchangeable parts duuh

2018-07-17 00:44:27 UTC  

and even assuming she would want to look like a local, it's the future

2018-07-17 00:44:38 UTC  

how much race mixing has gone on since present day

2018-07-17 00:44:43 UTC  

Well, looking like a local would tend to help with blending in

2018-07-17 00:44:56 UTC  

The way movie is set up, her looks are utterly irrelevant too XD

2018-07-17 00:44:56 UTC  

I guess it's still contextual, even then
