Episode 207 - Ghost in the Shell (2017)

Welcome back to Not A Bomb! This is the podcast where we dive into some of cinema's biggest box office failures and explore whether they deserve a second chance. 

Unfortunately, we bid ado to “Re-May'-ke” month with a remake of one of the most quintessential anime films of all time, Ghost in the Shell. You may have heard about this one during its production, as the film was controversial for some of its casting choices. Was the outrage justified? Did the film live up to the high expectations of the original anime? To help answer these questions and more, we are happy to bring back Jose from Watch/Skip+ to assist in the discussion.

Ghost in the Shell is directed by Rupert Sanders and stars Scarlett Johansson, Takeshi Kitano, Michael Pitt, Pilou Askaek, Chin Han, and Juliette Binoche

Make sure to check out Jose on Watch/Skip+ and make sure to drop them a review!

Be sure to check us out over on YouTube - Crying Freeman on Episode 35 of And Now for Something A Little Bit Different. Also, check out Episode 82 of Moviestruck, where we join Sophia to discuss M. Night Shyamalan's The Happening.
