A live action GITS movie was never going to work because they were never going to have the nudity, the GITS movie is the rare anime example where the fanservice really was crucial to the story, depicting Motoko's body so frankly nude drives home the themes in a perfectly visual way.

But a big budget movie is never going to be an R anymore, not to mention the issue of political correctness in having your lead actress be fully nude in a movie that was already brushing up against political correctness in the first place.
 
Major point everyone here keeps missing is Oshii's GitS movies were boring pretentious adaptations of Masamune Shirow's GitS manga.
Only the GitS PS1 game cutscenes shows what the original manga version looks like animated. https://youtube.com/watch?v=iTkOvNDhO_Y

Fucking this.

I've slowly warmed up to the first GitS movie (second one I dig), but it's so cold and steril compared to the comic book.

inb4 thats the point

Sucks that the most faithful adaptation of his work is 12 minutes of original anime material stuff. Also miss the original Major english voice actor. McGlynn is a bore.
 
The Ghost in the Shell manga sucked dick and people who like the manga over the two animated movies are fucking retards.

Faye will most likely be the swiss army knife, outdoing all the silly boys with great ease and show off her superior personality, maturity and intelligence whenever she opens her mouth. Jet will be a generic black strongman, Ed will most likely be constantly queerbaiting and fuck knows what Spike is going to be like.
Vicious will wear a "Make Mars Great Again" cap or something like that.
and Vicious' former brother in arms will be transgender instead of a normal guy who had his body fucked up by the chemicals during the war.

I wish Oshii didn't get involved in the production of the second season of SAC. There was no need to focus on the Major's childhood or the shitty heavy handed political plot.

He'll lecture Spike about how STRONG and PROUD xe is (and the correct use of his pronouns), but xe will die a tragic death at the hands of two white criminals riding a hover-pickup truck, when xe goes for a jog.

After editing my post above, I realized that it will become only a matter of time until we get mandatory episodes in Netflix shows that lecture us on the correct use of pronouns...
Kinda weird that they greenlit a second season of this show before even a teaser came out.

No one will fucking watch it. Not that it matters given Netflix's business model, unless lots and lots of people unsub from them at release.
