Her ghost is Japanese, but the shell is artificial so it doesn't matter what ethnicity it looks like. It's still the Major.

im super glad that flopped as hard as I wanted it to.
On one hand I have a special place in my heart for GITS, I love it, and im sure a lot of people on /a/ love it. And I know many of us are interested in it being done well, or as well as hollywood could do it anyway. I wouldnt be pissed if say, they casted scarjo but the rest of the cast was various asians. Because most of them are only a little cyborg. Her being almost full robot is a relatively decent argument for a white lady being cast (personally i wouldnt have gone with her at any point but fine) but it sucks because theyve got One japanese guy in a cast of mayo. Also did you guys see the laughing man, he looks like crack years culkan.

>implying Gods of Egypt failed because of white-washing

Surely it wasn't the terrible fight sequences between Egyptian Iron Man Horus and Dog thing, a 30 ft tall old man Ra living on floating ship in space shooting fireballs at a giant worm. Terrible cg, shit acting by almost everyone except by the guy playing Black Panther, cheesy romance, and for a movie called Gods of Egypt, probably Clash of the Titans does a better job making the movie about Geek mythologies.

That wasn't her fault though. The script was complete shit.
>>
>>140167270
It really had no chance of being good anyway since it was made by people who clearly didn't understand the source material. Anyone who did would know that you don't make a fucking movie of Aeon Flux, it doesn't lend itself to live action in the least.

GITS lends itself to live action however it will have the same problem and will completely miss the point of the source material and be GITS in name only.

What we will get is a generic Scarjo scifi action movie with her kicking and shooting in slo mo to dubstep. Enjoy!
>>
>>140167405

I think the GitS movie would have a chance if Luc Besson directed it like he did with Lucy. Not because Lucy was a good movie. It was absolute shit, and basically a live action Elfen Laid. It would work because this is the kind of thing Luc Besson does well. Imagine something like Fifth Element but with cyborgs; sounds terrible but at least it would be entertaining. One of the few Hollywood directors that can mimic the anime style in real life.

It would probably still suck but not as much as giving it to some fucking hack director that's only made a handful of movies.
>>
>>140167405

Actually if its hollywood live-action, i want to the america in the ghost in the shell setting.

I don't need the section nine to be there, as long as the setting done right and the genre remain the same.

And seriously, i wanna America in GITS as it's split into three, Democrat north, republican south, and Commie coastal America.

Not to mention its a good chance to shows the CIA side of GITS

>>
>>140167721

>Sicario

It's definitely one of the better movies from Hollywood in the past 10 years. It's still far from the norm. We get many more shit films and pretentious art pieces like Revenant than we get good films every year.

That movie, Sicario, is particularly good because it's one of the few action films that actually has a decent plot aside from the action. The concept of the U.S. government backpedaling into bringing back big cartels because of the chaos caused by destabilizing the Colombian drug cartels was pretty unexpected from an American film. Also, Benicio was pretty good fit for the role and Josh Brolin is always great.
>>
>>140167987

>Who will play Togusa or Aramaki?

Suspect one of them to be a black or some other minority and both of them to play minor roles.

>Will we get the Tachikoma?

We will get a soulless Tachikoma, because cute + serious never seems to work with the West.

There are a few directors that could take on a GITS movie and give better results that Rupert Sanders.

>The Wachowskis

Seems like a no brainer they basically copied the entire looks of the first GITS movie and used it for The Matrix, and with a good writer teamed up with them could portray the heady philosophical aspects of the IP.
Downside : they would NEED a good writer to team with them because they utterly failed in ejecting heady philosophical elements into the Matrix. Also they would probably cast Bea Doona as The Major. While she is hot, she doesn't speak good english for a Hollywood movie. ( though i guess they could dub over her lines) and she isn't imposing enough for the role which is part of the problem with Scarjo.

I would even take Zack Snyder over Sanders.
>>
>>140168489
I agree. Just have to teach him how to film a fucking fight scene and he's golden. Though to be fair Inception's "hallway fight" was very well done compared to what he did with the Batman movies.

Is there anybody who thinks this movie will actually be good?
I don't even care about whitewashing but you'd have to be delusional to believe this will even come close to the source material's legacy. The director was a shit choice, the writers were a shit choice, and Johanson, while a good supporting actress, isn't a very good leading actress. She can't in anyway portray a deep character as evidenced by Lucy and that alien film. Nothing is going right for this movie. I can't predict if it'll be successful or not but it will be terrible.

Fun fact: Margot Robbie was originally offered the part for the Major. She's hotter and far better of an actress than Scarlet Johansson's flat acting and marginally attractive looks. Robbie would've been far more interesting to see as the Major.

I think the debat about how the majour looks in the live action movie is an irrelevant argument, not even because it's justifiable in setting, but because quite frankly, it's everything else that we have to worry about.

Prepare for Tachikoma's with metalic, male voices.
Prepare for set in America and Terrorist threat that blows up Manhattan Bridge.
Prepare for babbies first psuedo science and complete misinterpretation of 'Ghosts'.

What is it about these Japanese-made adaptations? Is it a mix of protectiveness-xenophobia that they keep their most lucrative licenses locked up at home with only shitty adaptations and cosplay-tier costumes to their name?

I don't care as long as the Major gets that cool yellow bomber jacket. I've never cared for her looks in the series/SAC. Much preferred the design and aesthetic of the first movie.

I also liked how her eyes appeared kinda glassy/artificial at times, although that might be down to the art style.

Just watched it to see what all the hype was about.

Despite liking the Blade Runner-esque city, it was slow, dull, and simple. Why is it considered such a masterpiece?

It inspired a bunch of other sci-fi (including western stuff like The Matrix), and it's one of the best earlier "philosophical" anime. It also has god-tier artwork, OST, and atmosphere.

And if you want a more complex plot, better worldbuilding, and more developed characters, make sure to watch the S.A.C. TV series.
>>
>>140179220
then slap some cool contacts on ScarJo and I'll consider things a-ok.
>>
>>140178901
This. Plus, they're doing a readaptation of the Laughing Man story, not the original. The synop basically says "cool Major takes down group of hackers"

Literally

like....Literally.....

I weep.
>>
>>140179328
The Laughing Man has been listed as "Kuze" too, so they might after the romance angle with the Major, while ruining both of SAC's great villains. There really are many more valid reasons of why it'll be shit other than ScarJo.

>>140179400
If they do literally anything romantic with the Major, I will shit in the movie theater to protest.

I understand she was very sexual and very different in the manga, but this movie is referencing the anime. Which has actual depth. And a female character that can be amazing and interesting without being involved in some love bullshit. Trust me, I lov dem tiddies but they're INDEPENDENT tiddies with SUBSTANCE god dammit

>>140179601
SAC wasn't really made to be a critical philosophical commentary. It definitely came with the territory, but it was more focused on entertainment than art. Apples and dildos in my opinion desu

Cope with what? I'm sure most people would be quite happy, unless it really starts the trend of anime as the new capeshit. It would pretty much be the same as Edge of Tomorrow. The thing is, that had mediocre source material and it worked well as a good action movie. GitS anime (movie and series) are critically acclaimed, so even a great movie in the spirit of the original would still be criticized, and it certainly wouldn't have the classic status of the anime. The way this is looking, it'll just be straight up shit.

The issue is not the logistics of the CHARCTER being white, it's the actress being white. Some autistics fucks (on both sides of this argument) don't get that there's a difference between those two things and that one can be argued independant of the other.
