Peace is a lie. There is only passion.

To be quite honest. I’m sure Masamune Shirow doesn’t give 2 shits about what they do with the IP. He’s always given a huge amount of control over the story to producers. This was true of all the works made so far.

You are absolutely correct.

I doubt it was even so singular a decision as Paramount making the call. From comments made by other people/groups related to the film or the Ghost in the Shell franchise... the only people who thought a Japanese actor was the “only good/right decision” are entitled white Americans on Tumblr.

did “the japanese people” confirm this notion of having something taken away from them? like the publisher Kodansha for example? nerds are so short-sighted sometimes...

You kinda forgot all the uglies in the SW: EU, starting with my favourite, the Die Fighter. No misspelling, that´s the nickname of a TIE fighter without the solar wings, and with an Y-Wing nacelle attached - as fast and maneuverable as an Y-Wing, and as powerful and tough as a Tie Fighter.

I’m pretty sure everyone in The Witcher wears skin-tight pants. Geralt certainly does.

Not quaking. Just tired of hearing the constant gender back and forth. Male characters, female characters. I don’t care. If the plot is good, I’m happy. It’s everyone else who seems to obsess over how many of X gender or Y gender are in a work.

A glass breaker is not for breaking and entering, but rather for breaking and exiting. A lot of people keep dedicated glass breakers in their car in case they get into an accident and can't get their windows open.

Another possible legitimate use of the tool:

The question I have, is why would you own a dagger that is not designed to kill something?
