After skimming over that article, I looked up the trailer....now I remember it, I looked at the trailer that came out last year. Egads, the title character looks uber-creepy with those over-sized eyes. Talk about uncanny valley, this is more like the uncanny-super-creepy-valley.

I'm reminded of the over-hyped movie "produced by James Cameron" that came out not too long after "Titanic." It didn't exactly set the world on fire either. I guess we'll see.

Wow, over 14 years to start production, production ended in Feb. 2017 and release date two years later...(after being pushed two times)

This has "Heaven's Gate" written all over it..... [Big Grin]

The plotline has elements of the '70s film "Rollerball" too....(though that was a modest cult success.)

I noted that the critics seem to have liked it, but I think that is more of the "Cameron Effect" than the actual quality of the movie.

If I owned a single screen, I wouldn't book it. If I had a multi, I might book it in one of the smaller auditoria to start with.

We'll know in a week or so...

Some of my kids are fans of the books (Manga) and are pretty impressed with the attention to detail and faithfulness to the story hinted at in the trailers. And were pretty taken with the story to begin with.

But can it break out a bigger-than-fanboys audience?

We'll see next week...

Looks a lot like that Ghost in the Shell movie from last year. Which had almost nothing for audience when I played it here.
