    "Maybe it would be faster for me to learn Japanese?"

    I think it's better to watch a film in the language it's created in [planetmirror.com]. Who knows if the translation is correct? Isn't it better to hear the real actors, and listen to the sounds they make, as opposed to some translated version?

    A large piece of the meaning and fluidity of a film is lost in translation.

    I can remember sitting around a table of French friends of mine, not knowing a word of French myself, and it was still interesting to listen to them, like a fly on a wall. You don't know what's being said, but the experience has it's own merits.

    There's something really cool about watching anime in Japanese that gives a kind of simplicity to the plot and idea of the film. Because you have no idea what's being said, you can kind of guess, and that adds some of your immagination to the mix. It delivers a kind of Zen, IMHO. And with the visuals in the trailer of Ghost In the Shell 2, who cares what language it's in!! Gimmie!! Gimmie!!

      Well, hopefully the translator.

      > A large piece of the meaning and fluidity of a film is lost in translation.

      Well, it depends, who guessed it, on the translator, and the voice actors.

      IRC, there are even some films out there, which were more successful in a different language, because of the translation.

      The translation is a work in itself, which, depending on the ability of the translator, can be a shallow copy of the original, or even better than the original (Especially, if the original is of poor quality)

      I can undestand the other reason, but how can you prefer the original in a language you do not understand over a translated version, on the reason of loss in fluidity and meaning?

      I prefer to watch english films in the original, although I have some problems understanding the spoken word. But still, I have the feeling, I'm not quite getting some details of the film. Most problematic are jokes. Partly because of cultural discrepancies, partly because I'm busy understanding the language.

      In other words, I'm experience a loss in meaning and fluidity. And I guess that will always be the case, unless one lived a while in that nation, so one has a better grip of the language and culture.

      A grip, a translator surely has.

      Considering the two or three english dubs of Anime, I've seen, I can understand, why some people are avoiding them. But I wouldn't consider Ghost in the Shell as one of them.

      > And with the visuals in the trailer of Ghost In the Shell 2, who cares what language it's in!!

      Well, as long it isn't Polish, I'm fine with it :).
      Considering the previous Ghost-in-the-Shell film, I'd say it'd be a loss missing the monologues.

      The problem with translated movies is that there's usually a different voice director than the original director of the movie. This doesn't seem like a huge departure, but it's especially important in animated films. A different director and different actors can change the subtext of what's being said, and any script that doesn't exercise subtext is usually bad writing.

      Dialog is also sometimes stretched or summarized to match the talking heads on screen... ie, in Japanese it might take 10 seconds of screen

Although today anime is becoming "cool", when I was in high school it was pretty fringe. When ghost came out, I showed it to quite a few people who didn't know what anime was, and most had a much better appreciation for the fact that "cartoons" could tell a compelling story.

The first movie (IMHO) had the problem of being very good looking, however, the story was a bit of a let down. Also, the story in the movie didn't follow the manga correctly, with many parts not happening in the manga. However, I can understand how there would be problems converting from a manga to a OVA or movie.

    "Maybe it would be faster for me to learn Japanese?"

    I would say that you can't really grasp Japanese language without living in Japan for a while. I can say that after taking Japanese in High School and College and getting top marks in both, my Japanese skills turned out to be pathetic when I finally got to Japan.

    That being said, after a few years of diving into the language (by which I mean being thrown in the deep end of the pool), I could function fairly well as an interpreter.

    The big thing is to go to Japan and speak Japanese, even if you can't. Hanging around with other English speakers all the time and/or copping out and trying to get them to speak English will get you nowhere. The average english teacher I see in Japan can't speak a lick of Japanese even after several years. Why? because they either do not want to learn or constantly take the easy way out.

  • You can learn Japanese in about a year, if you are living in the country. If you're not American, look into the Working Holiday Visa option. There are also some excellent exchange programs with generous scholarships to students.
    • What, are they denying entry of people from my country?
      • According to this page [mofa.go.jp], the WH visa is for "Citizens of Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Korea, France, Germany and the United Kingdom". So it's not just the US that was not included in that program.

        Also, if you're a U.S. citizen and you want to go to Japan for sightseeing, shopping, recreation, et cetera, you can just take your passport, get on a plane and go. You'll be given a 90 day temporary visa at customs in Japan. If you want to work in Japan though, you'll need to apply for a working visa.

    I think the biggest problem anime currently faces in the US is not translation, or people not liking sub-titles. It comes down to two things:
    People expect anime to be childrens cartoons, because that's all american cartoons are (in general)
    or
    People look for a traditional western storyline, and they can't handle characters who are both good and bad, and stories that deal with multiple social issues, without offering panaceas at the end.

    It takes a unique type of American to enjoy an anime, and until the rest of the country realizes the walls they have up, and takes them down, and appreciates anime for the beautiful deep art it is, anime won't be widely accepted.

    What does this have to do with GITS? I would love to see that movie on a big screen, but unless I catch it at a local college, I've got no chance. We need to change American preconceptions so that we can watch our movies the way they were meant to be watched!

    I often show friends the movie Princess Mononoke(sp?), and they say, "Wow, that was incredible!", and I tell them, "There are more movies like that, and a lot that are better than that." But no one has ever heard of it, because the american public can't understand or be bothered to try and understand an animated cartoon not aimed at children, or that doesn't hinge on humour. Sure, Pixar has gotten animation into the mainstream, but all of pixars movies are considered "Funny" and "child-safe".

    Just my 3.5 cents.
    • I've seen my share of Anime, and it's not an issue of a "traditional western storyline" that's lacking. Too many storylines in Japanese movies and anime are simply lacking quality. Important details are left out of the story line. There are giant plot holes you could drive a bus through. This applies to live action films, too. Compare "Ringu" and "The Ring." There are so many unexplained occurences in "Ringu" that were developed and explained in the remake. "Audition" is a sick, sick movie, that will

    Dreamworks To Distribute Ghost In The Shell II
    In Spring Of 2004

    August 14, 2003
    Screen Daily reports that Dreamworks SKG has formed a specialty distribution arm, Go Fish, which will distribute its first film, Satoshi Kon's Millenium Actress, on September 12 in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, and San Francisco. Dreamworks set up Go Fish just after Warner Bros. announced the launch of Warner Independent Pictures, which will release films from independents and small production companies. While Go Fish will undoubtedly release its share of indie films, the second film announced by Dreamworks was Ghost In The Shell II: Innocence, the follow-up to the extremely successful science fiction anime feature, Ghost In The Shell, which was directed by Mamoru Oshii and based on the manga series by Masamune Shirow (published in the U.S by Dark Horse). It should be interesting to see if Dreamworks primarily uses Go Fish to compete with Warners for indie films or to gain a beachhead for anime feature films in the rough and tumble arena of theatrical exhibition.

    Ghost in the Shell II is in the final stages of production in Japan, and Go Fish plans to release the feature film late in the first half of 2004. Back in 1996 the original Ghost In the Shell film made a major impact in the U.S. and launched a plethora of successful tie-in products including posters, statues, art books, manga, and action figures. With a Ghost in the Shell TV series (see "Bandai Gets Ghost In the Shell TV Series") set to debut in the U.S. and the merchandising potential of a second Ghost In The Shell movie (see "New Ghost In The Shell Movie"), this property is poised to take off once again.

  • Dreamworks has already licensed the film, and will release it under their Go Fish label next spring, practically simultaneous with the Japanse premier. So quit bellyaching about a long wait.

    In addition, the aforementioned TV series, GitS:Stand Alone Complex, has also been licensed by Bandai Entertainment USA, which actually helped finance it. It should see domestic DVD next year, probably about the same time as the movie is released to theatres.
  • Maybe it would be faster for me to learn Japanese?

    No, it would be faster to wait a couple hours for the fansubbers to do their subtitle translation on the pirate version of the movie (that you'll obviously replace with the official DVD when released, right?). fansubs are very often better than the official translations anyway, and include handy cultural notes.

  • Wow. What a beautiful mood-setting trailer. But then, at the end, some guys says INNOCENCE! In the most jarring way possible.

    Anyone know the name of the song used?
