:O Thanks for sharing that!!!

Interesting, I find the comment of cautious optimism to actually be a good thing - they sound aware of the DANGER button that pertains to movies with female leads and how objectifyingly impossible it is to escape "necessary" clichés.

>_< SERIOUSLY hoping for the best!

First drafts don't really mean that much. They are basically just saying this is the direction we're thinking of going. I just hope they don't mess up the character personas. They characters are so well established that it would be a shame to mess with them.

their best bet is to create a story for the characters to go through, but otherwise take a back seat to developing them in any way...because as you said, everyone is already so well developed (even the shady bar-tender who leaks information for Motoko - I feel like I even know his story!)

I truly hope Spielberg doesn't screw this one up.
