Oshii is back to mess with your e-brain and predict the future vibes of the ps3. We talk about the technologically assisted loss of self, basset hound vibes, and whether at the end of the day all of…
... 2: Innocence.
[laughs]
Um, this happened, L- Luche and I are in a group where we watch tokusatsu movies or shows-
Mm
...
I guess, on, uh, the weekends.
And so we were talking about, um, this movie, and Lu kind of threw it out there that it's like...
We were talking about, like, sequels that really deliver, and Lu was like, "Man, Ghost in the Shell 2," like the stuff that Oshii is on.
And I had a memory of it being very good but, like, frankly, I hadn't seen it, like, since a year or two after it came out when I was quite young.
And so I was like, "I, I should watch that again." I remember it being really, like, mind-blowingly good, but I don't remember most of the details about it.
Uh, Lu, what's your history with this one?
Mm
Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence when they did the very short theatrical run, I think, like, just one year ago.

And I was, I was just immediately blown away mainly by the visuals of the movie and just how cool everything looks.
Mm-hmm.
But yeah, I was really blown away by the visuals when I saw it, and, uh, I think being able to rewatch it this time I was able to dig in deeper into, like, the philosophical and, like, meditative aspects of this movie because a lot of that just, like, passed me by on the first watch, but I knew it was something I wanted to dig into some more later.
I'd like to add one detail to this, which is when...
