When is this film going to try to win me over? I have zero connection, zero nostalgia to this material. They need to do something fast because it's just not there. Maybe reunite Bill Murray and SJo together in Japan again?

Characters are looking great.
Though not gonna lie the whole "Major versus her creators" thing they are hinting at in trailers isn't appealing to me. I'm cool with straying from source material a bit; each entry into the franchise had it's own take. But I really hope it doesn't turn into a 'Major vs. Section 9' sort of schtick. They need to stick with the heart of what GiTS has always been, and its never been that..
