Posters and Quality

Just had Anime Society film night, were we showed Mamoru Oshii’s “Avalon” and “Ghost in the Shell”. This is the first time that I realised that the posters in the background while Batou is chasing the Puppet-Master controlled ghost hacker are exacly the same ones that are seen in Avalon promoting the concert (obviously including dog and all )…
Also, there hasn’t been a movie that is as good as “Ghost in the Shell” in terms of visuals (backgrounds, eyes and especially mechanical design). And that’s saying a lot, considering it was done in 1995. I’m looking forward to (but will probably be disappointed by) the new “Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex”, but it’s done by Production I.G, so there’s hope…
See you friday for the last 6 episodes of “Serial Experiments Lain” ^_^
