Hopefully this Appleseed doesn't suck as much as the first one.

The books *are* amazing. I guess the first appleseed movies didn't really suck that much, its just that the movie adaptations weren't up to the standards the books created.

Dude the original film did not suck. It's just alittle dated. It came out in 1988. The manga is kick a$$ though.

That is going to be amazing.

thanks again huck

Oh I know.... for that matter, you read the JDM Ghost in the Shell? With the missing pages? The pages depicting the all girl boat party/orgy?

This is going to be so shameful............... I never got into Ghost in the Shell... I dunno why, since I followed lots of Shirow's other stuff
Appleseed, Dominion, Intron Depot, but GITS....

I'll be sure to look for it in the theatre when it comes out

I prefer Miyazaki Hayao's imagination, talent and brilliance; his films are much more entertaining and enlightening, especially over some action/porno wannabe flick.

But to each his own I guess....

Have you even seen any of Masamune Shirow's work?! It's impossible to compare him to Miyazaki Hayao; their styles and subjects are so different! There are many different genres of anime you know
As for getting a chance to see the Appleseed movie, it's not difficult. We DO live in the Bay Area, which seems to have the largest North American Japanese population outside of Hawai'i (in other words, get off your **** and go to your local Japanese video store )
