What I find interesting is that modern manga evolved post WW2 and took a lot of influence from American comics brought to Japan by GIs . Characters in manga often don't really look asian, their faces are, if anything, exaggerations of western beauty ideals. If you did see flatter faces and almond shaped eyes it was often the face of a villain or fool. That said, Motoko is unquestionably Japanese, I think its a shame they didn't cast an Asian actress for the roll... but I guess in the end this is a western movie, made predominantly by westerners in English. It's cultural appropriation. Is it theft or flattery? Does Ghost in the Shell belong first to the Japanese, or does it belong as much to its western fans?

I just hope it doesn't suck

also Scarlett is nice to look at regardless.

So... someone who knows nothing about the situation in Syria/Aleppo makes a video about it, and proves he is a complete dipshit.
Perhaps he could mention the rebels in Aleppo taking citizens hostage?
Or them shelling escape routes?
Or them mining every exit point?
"Assad bad! Assad Bad!" he might as well chant over and over. I'm sorry, chappy, it aint as simple as that.

And the US having tried everything to solve the situation? How about NEGOTIATION??? Since day 1, they have refused to, and undermined all and every effort to actually discuss the problems in Syria, and instead and repeatedly fuelled the chaos by provided arms, including another 50 tonnes of weapons and ammo dropped this week. Yes, it is more complex than that, but in a nutshell, that's better than this cretan's attempt.
So, a fucking awful attempt to explain the situation.

I thought I was desensitized but apparently I do have some remainder of soul left in this shell. This is extremely difficult to watch. Barely got through a single minute of this *horrorshow.

I'm excited to play this but I'm hoping it can keep my interest past 10 hours. Elite: Dangerous also played the numbers game, which is interesting, but it is a very cold game. This game at least seems to have some things to do in it and has a warm feel, but I'm still on the fence if I want to shell out AAA money for it especially because the developer has been very vague about the gameplay.

I can't wait to be disappointed. Hollywood will once again destroy and skew a character's image to appease the public. Talk to me when Harley Quinn gets the lasso of truth, breaks it's bounds and makes Wonder Woman her bitch. Amazonian queen my ass, this will be just another attempt to get 16 year old girls to drag their sex starved hormone men to shell out money to get laid, and it'll work. At least for the women. This is exactly why I bring my own popcorn bucket to the movies, drill a hole in the bottom, and hope she doesn't ask for extra hot butter.

Bdum-TISH!

It was an amazing episode, thanks for sharing, shell shocked is a good description

It's where the program does the animation for you using physics (or other) algorithms. As the artist, you place a "flag" in the scene, and attach it to a "pole" then tell the program there's a "45 mph wind from the East".
Then you hit "Play" and you get a movie of a flag waving in the wind.

As opposed to regular animation, which can be thought of as glorified stop-motion animation. Each single piece moved by you, individually, for each frame of video.

You create a flag and a pole. Then the next frame you bend it here, here, here, and here, then click forward to the next frame, and bend it a bit more here, little less here, invert this bend, add another, make this corner whip a bit.

It basically allows less technically savvy artists play in a world where only "nerds" used to play.

So, basically here in this video, it's like those simulations of water breaking out of a ball and splashing all over the place. Only instead of a ball, you have human-shaped containers being moved around through mo-cap and having things attached to their shells or filled with other things.

Really kind of lazy way of animating.
