Angst and Great Books Quotes: An Entry That Has Very Little to Do With Either.

My sister and I rented Ghost in the Shell: Innocence a few days ago, and since she ran off to a friend's house I didn't bother watching it until tonight. I've got very few complaints about the movie itself. There's still bits in the computer animation that make the cell-shaded stuff stand out, but that's going to be a hard problem to fix. I liken it to the strange way that the characters stand right above the floor in movies like Spy Kids: 3-D. Which is a really, really bad reference, but it's basically the same sort of situation. They just don't quite fit together, and there's not much that can be done about that. (That is also where any similarity between GitS and Spy Kids ends, as far as valid production criticism goes). Yes, I admit to watching Spy Kids. No, I did not pay for it.

( And then I start to ramble, not about the movie, but about the DVD itself. In which I throw around a lot of words, but say very little, in all likelihood. )
