(3:25:39 PM) Attamark: Gah, they got a good part of the feel down, but I think they whiffed on the story.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6s9JEcRb5I4
(3:25:39 PM) TARS: Title: Ghost in the Shell Official Trailer #1 (2017) Scarlett Johansson Action Movie HD
(3:26:37 PM) Ijaka: The body suit isn't working for me.
(3:27:02 PM) Ijaka: Is it supposed to be like her outfit? Or is that just her body without any clothing on?
(3:27:39 PM) Attamark: yeah, pretty sure that its supposed to the optical camo suit
(3:29:49 PM) Attamark: In the original movie its supposed to be skin-tight and see though but cant have that now, can we?
(3:30:08 PM) Ijaka: Yeah
(3:30:35 PM) Attamark: It looks like they're trying to using it as a vehicle to string as many iconic scenes as possible into one package instead of just doing a live action adaptation of the puppetmaster story, which makes me sad
(3:31:09 PM) Ijaka: I'm also not entirely digging Batou's eyes, but the difference there is minor
(3:32:41 PM) Ijaka: It's going to look great, but I feel like it could bomb entirely based on what it's opening along side
(3:32:54 PM) Ijaka: If they managed to get a date with nothing else big, they'll do fine
(3:33:22 PM) Attamark: *nods*
(3:34:24 PM) Ijaka: That said, if they pull it off, we might should see some more anime adaptations moving through the system
(3:34:58 PM) TARS has cleared the topic.
(3:34:58 PM) TARS has changed the topic to: EQ2 - In A Nutshell & Wishing Well / EQ2 - Wayfinder's Restaurant / RMTV - TV Palooza
(3:35:25 PM) Attamark: yeah, would be nice
(3:36:31 PM) Ijaka: Could be nice. They also could hand something to Michael Bay
(3:37:02 PM) Attamark: Looking at the trailer again, I get the feeling that they're going to ditch section-9, make it about Hanka as a secret big bad megacorp, and the major as their rebelling masterpiece.
(3:38:56 PM) Attamark: Having her be 'one of a kind' sorta pisses me off, full body cyborgs are supposed to be common-ish in this future, she's just military grade and an S class hacker
(3:40:46 PM) Ijaka: Yeah, that's weird. Its not like it would be a cost issue with costuming and effects
(3:42:37 PM) Lyah [Lyah@m-61-324-351-795.hsd3.il.comcast.net] entered the room.
(3:42:37 PM) mode (+o Lyah) by ChanServ
(3:43:03 PM) Attamark: heya lyah
(3:43:32 PM) Ijaka: Hi Lyah
(3:43:33 PM) Lyah: Drake, I saw an interesting documentary this week: "I Am Your Father", which is all about David Prowse, and a film-maker's quest to re-shoot Vader's scene in ROTJ using Prowse's face.
(3:44:03 PM) Lyah: Necessary Spoiler: They made the doc, but Lucanfilm refused to allow them to actually show the scene.
(3:45:35 PM) Attamark: I think he might be afk
(3:45:59 PM) Attamark: but that is interesting
(3:48:09 PM) Rakki [Rakki@cp-92-417-12-421.public.wayport.net] entered the room.
(3:48:30 PM) Rakki: -Flops-
(3:52:20 PM) Pella: It's supposed to be a robot body with synthetic skin that can turn her invisible.
(3:52:39 PM) Rakki: The Major?
(3:52:45 PM) Rakki: :U
(3:53:45 PM) Ijaka: Yeah, we were talking about the trailer
(3:53:48 PM) Rakki: GitS?
(3:53:58 PM) Pella: Yup.
(3:54:02 PM) Rakki: There's a trailer for the live action one?
(3:54:41 PM) Ijaka: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6s9JEcRb5I4
(3:54:41 PM) TARS: Title: Ghost in the Shell Official Trailer #1 (2017) Scarlett Johansson Action Movie HD
(3:56:15 PM) Rakki: Any good? Can't watch right now
(3:58:23 PM) Ijaka: It looks impressive. What they're actually going to manage with the story I can't guess
(3:58:43 PM) Attamark: jak and I were dicussing that, it *looks* good, i think the story might wiff
(3:59:29 PM) Ijaka: What they really should do, is Black Lagoon
(4:00:00 PM) Ijaka: Nice and over the top, pretty straight forward, nothing too difficult to wrap your head around. Good starting point for anime adaptations
(4:00:10 PM) Attamark: I have sneaking suspicion they're going to ditch section 9 and make Hanka precision instruments a sterotypical evil megacorp the major rebels against.
(4:00:28 PM) Attamark: And YESS
