Alright... the above title actually comes from Ghost in the Shell: Innocence or as they say it Jap Inosensu: Koukaku Kidoutai... This is the sequel to the previous post that I post onto the blog which is about Ghost in the Shell... which is the prequel to the series... hmm... come to think of it Ghost in the Shell might be the sequel to Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex series... hmm... ok I'm completely confused by now...
Right... back to what I want to talk about... the title... it is a quote given by Bateau a Section 9 agent who is in charge of a murder investigation... err... I think I better tell you the story in order to prevent MORE confusions... Maybe I should start right from the beginning... here we go...
Marina and I saw Innocence (I'm going to shorten it to avoid writing long words) in Dendy in Circular Quay... It was Thursday and we agreed on meeting at about 4.30 or something (can't quite remember) in Circular Quay and maybe I have told her or maybe I haven't that I finish at about 12 from uni (we went because we both don't have anything on Friday so no biggie ^--^) but I maybe didn't can't quite remember... so I went home after uni because I thought I might as well take a shower before I go to the movies... I went home and got everything planned and I didn't realise that the bathroom inside the house was being renovated and the plumber is here... (I should have noticed the word PLUMBER written boldly in front of a white van) I was just mucking around until I want to take a shower and when I voiced my intention to do so my auntie told me that I can't use any of the water system coz they are fixing the plumbing system sh~... yeah... I know... crap heh?!?Then I received a message from Marina saying that she's already at Redfern, it was about 3pm and I was thinking... hmm... I thought her uni's not in the City and being so delayed I quickly took a train to the City and met her... *sigh... hahaha luckily I didn't miss the train though... imagine if I have to take the next one which was going to arrive in another half an hour... hehehehe... anyways... we met at Kinokuniya and looked in awe at the stacks of mangas they have there and can't stop daydreaming at how many of them we should get *sigh if only I have the amount of money to splurge on these luxuries I would have gladly do so... especially when I have the amount of money Paris Hilton have I probably wouldn't buy those expensive handbags and probably sold the dog just to get my hands on those invaluable amount of mangas *drooling...
ALRIGHT back to the point... we visited Kings Comics which was cool but I thought Kino has larger amount and also better deals... but I still bought 2 coz I can't be bothered to go back to Kino... hehehe... I know... lazy ass...
After that leisurely visit we went to Circular Quay by bus and OMG! The bus driver is SO rude!! especially to this lady before me... she didn't know her way and she was asking whether this bus is going to Circular Quay (in a rather indecipherable way but I still can understand) and answer her very rudely and he talked very loudly too!! Bas~rd!! And he can't even bloody drive the goddamn car!! So I give him a score of zero personality, zero service and massive attitude problem!!
Well after that drama we finally get to go to Circular Quay... drop a bit at MacD and then went to the cinema... just in time... hehehe... now about the movie itself...
One thing for sure that you would get from this movie is the word haunting... it is very haunting to me when I saw it... I always thought that collaborating three dimensional technology to a rather 2 dimensional characters won't work but I was wrong... The cinematic experience was amazing!! I LOVE IT!! I can't really say much about the storyline because it was rather cryptic and although luckily my brain was working rather well during that time keeping up with the philosophical anecdotes and metaphors being bombarded to the viewers but nonetheless it was a cinematic experience that I didn't regret at all... some people may have a different view in the movie but I personally love it ^--^ and as they say in one of the reviews "brain is optional"
But one thing for sure is that Innocence is completely different to the prequel or the original Ghost in the Shell it is more philosophically based WHICH IS WHY I LOVE IT and if you are expecting the same action and story as the predecessor than you might as well not see it... because I thought Innocence stands up as a completely different movie altogether with its very own merits... That is all that I would say...
Nonetheless I would DEFINITELY buy the DVD when it comes out... that is after the whole excitement dies down... and discounts are available :P
And after the movie ended we ate dinner at Ichiban Boshi which took agggeeeessssss due to the line or the amount of people waiting before us... anyways... that is all... hehehe... ok then... I think I'll talk about something else later on... hmm... I'm quite sleepy but I still have to read that goddamn book... oh well... I'm screwed I just got home at about 9.30 and I already spent about 1 hour on this blog... *sigh I don't think I can live without this blog... oh my lovely blog *hug
PS. I usually have A LOT of images but I can't be bothered to actually find more because I kinda like the cover of Reel Anime brochure which consist of the image above on Innocence so if anyone wants more just get them yourselves I can't be bothered to :P Alrighty that is all for me... sayonara
