Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaA Basset Hound recurs several times in the film: in a commercial, on the street in flyers on the wall, in the garbage man's picture. The Basset Hound actually has no significance symbolically or thematically. The director just likes Basset Hounds.
- GoofsWhen the Section 9 members discuss about the "host shell" female cyborg, there's a shot with the brain hologram out of focus in the foreground. In this shot, the original (1995 movie) hologram is shown, instead of the new CGI one.
- Quotes
Batou: Chief, you ever question the ethics of the neurosurgeons who monkey around inside your brain?
Section 9 Department Chief Aramaki: They undergo psychiatric evaluations, especially those in security. They're subjected to a stringent screening of their personal lives. Of course, the ones who check are only human.
Batou: I guess once you start doubting, there's no end to it.
- ConnectionsEdited from Ghost in the Shell (1995)
As another comment said, they should have re-done the whole film, instead of a bit here and there. I couldn't enjoy the movie when it kept switching from CGI to cel-shaded animation. Also, considering this was made FOUR years after Innocence, the CGI is awful. Most of the time Motoko looks like a plastic doll. Not cool.
The music and sound effects were re-done, sometimes better, most times not. In the original GITS if somebody was getting beaten up, you would hear them scream. In 2.0, a guy gets his ankle broken and doesn't even let out a whisper. Stupid. The main theme song (the choral piece) was re-recorded and it too lost a lot of impact.
Don't bother with this. Just watch the original.
