yeah, toren smith of studio proteus has said MMI is delayed due to bad copy from Japan.
th reason the sequel has been so long in the making is that shirow said he wouldnt release it until it he had completed it: in other words, only when it was possible to collect it in one graphic novel.
fair enough policy, but if thats the case, why didnt he stipulate graphic novel release over serialisation?
i hate it when they try and drag not just money (which i dont mind so much) but Time out of us as well.
and also, if they are not going to release Stand Alone Complex overseas NOW, then they shouldnt be surprised that SAC fansubs are floating around on the net. ---------------
I worry a little over the blurb for Innocence - to my mind its not a topic that Shirow concerned himself with.
One things for sure, it looks like more than just -gratuitous- nudity this time 'round.. they making a whole film about it/:\ (ie, i don't remember the need for kusanagi to get nude to use opto-cam in the manga)
i'm getting a little bit worried and wonder if Shirow should exercise a little bit of creative control to protect his name. not that i'm a prude, but thats not what GITS was about in the first place. honestly.
at the age of 7, although an avid tintin fan, 'tintin and the blue oranges' introduced me to the concept of camp. in other words it was the gayest film i had ever seen.
