I'll update the OP later since Versy's Photobucket link isn't working. I'm still waiting on thread control powers...but technically I can do anything except change the poll anyway.

Good luck with the thread Boom!! I'll try to help where I can (by posting I guess since I'm an anime noob ), and I hope it all works out smoothly for you!

 

In any case, I watched Ghost in the Shell yesterday (the 1995 film), and I have to say, I loved it. Out of the (admittedly very limited number of) anime I've seen, it is definitely my favourite. In fact, I enjoyed it so much that now I want to read the manga, watch the anime shows and films, and play through the games I had already assumed that I'd enjoy it though, since while I am not a cyberpunk buff or anything like that, I do love its atmosphere (in fact, that's why the thought of an anime that mixes cyberpunk and horror makes me drool, if anyone knows of any please tell me!!). In any case, I'm glad that I finally took the initiative to watch it.

I have never watched the original movie but I watched both series and they're quite interesting. It's basically porn if you like cyberpunk and thrillers.

They have a lot of thought put into them and aren't as painfully westernized as shit like Psycho Pass.
