In ma, I'm referring to the quiet, in-between moments, that you can see in Japanese fillmaking as a result of mindful reflection.

Japanese handler, but there also seems to be an American topdog (Cutter), Batou (seems American in film), Major (questionable) scientist (French), Ishikawa and Borma seem of some African descent, Togusa (Maybe Japanese), Ladiy...

At the 2/28 IMAX event, Paramount apparently showed the first 12 minutes of the film which included the shelling sequence, Major (now known as Major Kira Millian) waking up in her new body, and the robo-geisha rescue scene.

Also, I've been meaning to ask for opinions here on this: they bill Johansson's GIF as "Major", like if that's her name. I also think in one of the trailers she says something like "this is major" as if Major is her name and not rank. What's with this? Are they are saying her na...

I like how in these posters that the Major's thermoptic suit is less flesh-colored and more of a light gray. http://assets0.minhaserie.com.br/uploads/editor_pictures/000/043/224/content_pic.jpg http://zayzay.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/Ghost-in-the-Shell-theatrical-imax.jpg That WETA Major statue...

I'm pretty sure it is, but not with full certainty. That would be a good twist if Kuze ended up being a 2501 puppet, worthy of a sequel.

SAC is a hard story to top, understandable why Sanders chose to go with the Kuze script.

Sadly, Hollywood knows the American public too well. If a story goes too philosophical, general audiences get too confused and angry..."I didn't get it!"

There was so much of that and other trailers that seemed so ... wrong. Why is she running up the wall visible in her odd-looking thermoptic camo (which looks like some sort of pink plastic bodysuit)? Why does Batou look so small? Why does the geisha have a big Japanese flag on her face (which seems...
