Ghost in the Shell 2.0
I went to see this Wednesday evening. The overall color tone has changed from greenish/bluish to orangish. A lot of sequences has been re-done, such as the opening and the scene where Motoko disappears after the assassination. Some of the graphics are now 3D, like the helicopters, and Motoko was 3D in some scenes as well.
The puppet master is female in this version, and she was very very alluring when she asks Motoko to merge with her.
After we came out of the theater, the friend I saw this with mentioned how small and shabby the Shinjuku high-rise buildings look compared to the ones in the movie (^^ゞ
Here’s a photo of the movie brochure. The first half contains material about 2.0, and the second half is a reproduction of the movie brochure for the 1995 version.
