Evolution: from host to cyborg

In fact, the movie setting should be somewhat different from the Oshii Mamoru theatrical version. It should not be so easy to mechanize human beings in the film. The place where Hero Kuze helps Major "evolve" is not to enter the Internet, but to actually promote the process of human mechanization. If cyborg loses his previous memory, there are only some similar "story background". What is the difference between fake memory and the host in Westworld? So the Major was not a cyborg in the true sense before, and her existence cannot promote the complete mechanization of more people. I think this part of the movie is actually telling us that only by respecting the personality and privacy of citizens can human beings become cyborg meaningful. If capitalists and regimes are allowed to change their appearance and memory, then human beings will just degenerate back to the host. .

    In this era when the duration is not more than two hours, I am embarrassed to call myself a blockbuster. The length of the film is unexpectedly short. I thought that this film was going to leave suspense and shoot a sequel. I didn't expect it to end like this? In terms of action and visual effects alone, the degree of completion is very high. Cyberpunk has a first-rate texture, but it is really just a taste of the kernel. I have never seen the original. The contrast is very interesting. I am very interested in looking for an old version of the movie.

    It's not disappointing, because I didn't expect too much from the plot, and it's not the original party, so although the plot of the movie version is very routine, it didn't prevent me from admiring the invincible handsome widow sister and the constant appearance of the future city scene. I like it very much. Visual effects and props for the film. In addition, every time I see Takeshi Kitano, I feel that the line in his heart is "you little bastards"

Ghost in the Shell quotes

  • Aramaki: [in Japanese] You are more than just a weapon. You have a soul... a ghost. When we see our uniqueness as a virtue, only then will we find peace.

  • Major: For someone who doesn't like people, how come you care about dogs so much?

    Batou: Don't know. I just like strays and they like me.

    Major: They like you because you feed them.

    Batou: You got no heart.
