Ghost in the Shell

The Ghost in the Shell movie was pretty awesome, and is certainly one of my favorite movies. I tend to like near-future sci-fi movies (Minority Report, Blade Runner, Total Recall). I also like noir films. GitS has it all. It's noir, sci-fi, deep, artsy, with kick ass action. What's not to love?

So when my first disc of Star Trek: TNG came, and I finally opened it I found it was broken right in half. Since my Star Trek marathon had been interrupted, I decided to take a break from it. I have been wanting to watch Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex ever since it came to Netflix Instant Watch. So I've started watching them, with six episodes down and 20 to go. While the TV show isn't as good as the movie, it is still pretty cool so far. I'll write a review when I finish the season. There's also a season 2, but I'll wait and see what I think of this one first.
