Truth

What is "truth"? Is yours the same as mine?

Ghost in the Shell: Innocence

So I finally picked up this DVD last week, drove myself mad last night figuring out how to turn off the subtitles, and then watched probably the coolest film opening with a cyber-hooker being shot that I've ever seen. (And that's saying something... some of the imported cyborg snuff out there is shit hot!)

Apart from some confusion at the end concerning what they meant by "ghost" in the context of uploaded/downloaded minds (in the cyber-age data is copied not transferred) there is nothing to complain about in this film. Seriously. Gunfights, explosions, murderous hookers, a handsome hero with synthetic eyes, lush CGI clashing with anime characters, the whole bit. I am going to watch this again. Now.

My grandfather's grandfather

My grandfather on Japan
I lived for three years
In a cage under the ground
Now I hate them all

My grandfather's grandfather on Africa
Returned from the dark
Telling of conquest and game
Silent 'bout the slaves
