    With those nightvision goggles they handed out, there's going to be a lot more "Innocence in Theaters". Poor kids, now where are preteens going to get their first make out session?

    Looking at the way it's worded, I thought it was something about a new game called

    "Ghost in the shell 2: Innocence in Theaters"

    Do you have to go do a confession in a theater to become innocent again?

    Oh, well.

    Those of you who aren't otaku may want to bring noseplugs to the theater, as such folk, nice though they may be, aren't known for their personal hygiene.

    Oh and before you think I'm baiting/trolling/etc., I am an otaku too ... fear me cosplay Sailor Moon, as I've just had my chest waxed! ^_^

    And the review in the local San Francisco Bay Guardian Substance Abuse, says:
    the average moviegoer (even one who liked I, Robot) is bound to find Innocence unbearably pretentious and boring. But mileage for those who are perhaps pretentious and boring themselves may vary.
    Which makes it sound like my kind of movie.
