For the occasion of the live-action adaptation of GHOST IN THE SHELL, I knew that an ordinary one-on-one discussion would not suffice: I had to gather a squad. Joining me to dissect the gleaming CGI prosthesis of Rupert Sanders' vision are David Sims (The Atlantic,) Alison Willmore (Buzzfeed,) Kevin Nguyen (GQ) and Justin Charity (this podcast, The Ringer, but mostly this podcast.)We discuss everything from the whitewashing controversy, to the production design, to THAT ENDING — as well as the box office performance and whether or not we can or should have Hollywood anime adaptations.
