Podcasts about Ghost in the Shell

When TRON: Legacy hit theaters in December 2010, Disney wasn't just reviving an old IP—they were resurrecting one of the strangest, most ambitious sci-fi concepts ever made. The original TRON from 1982 was a groundbreaking attempt to visualize the inside of a computer at a time when most people hadn't even touched one. It imagined programs as people, code as architecture, and morality as circuitry. It was visionary—and it bombed.By the 2000s, though, culture had caught up. The Matrix had turned cyberpunk into mainstream mythology, and the neon-noir look of Blade Runner had become visual shorthand for the future. Enter Joseph Kosinski—a former architect with a designer's precision—who re-engineered TRON not as a hacker fantasy, but as a digital myth about creation, perfection, and control.Garrett Hedlund plays Sam Flynn, son of Kevin Flynn, the hero from the first film, who vanished decades earlier. Sam follows a mysterious signal and is pulled into the Grid—his father's virtual world, now ruled by CLU, a digital clone obsessed with “perfection.” Within minutes, we're deep in a story that mirrors Star Wars: the fallen apprentice turned tyrant, the exiled master, the reluctant heir, and a world that must be remade. Kevin Flynn is both Obi-Wan and Yoda—haunted and withdrawn. CLU is his Darth Vader, a creation corrupted by its maker's arrogance.But the movie also borrows Matrix DNA. The Grid works like a virtual prison where sentient programs fight and dream of freedom. Quorra, played by Olivia Wilde, is the last of the “isomorphic algorithms,” lifeforms that evolved on their own—straight out of Ghost in the Shell's questions about digital souls. The film isn't about coding; it's about consciousness.Kosinski builds this world like a cathedral. Production designer Darren Gilford fills it with clean geometry and luminous voids. The suits by Michael Wilkinson and Christine Bieselin Clark refine Syd Mead's 1982 designs into sculpted futurism. And Daft Punk's score—half orchestra, half circuitry—turns the film into an electronic symphony. Even those who forgot the plot still remember that sound.Critics complained it was cold, that the script sounded like it was written by people who'd never heard of Google. My son Jonas nailed it: “This sounds like nobody who wrote it had heard of the internet.” And he's right. The film imagines computers as isolated kingdoms, not the networked web we actually live in. It's a pre-internet vision dressed in post-Matrix clothing.Yet that's what makes it fascinating. TRON: Legacy isn't really about technology—it's about fathers, sons, and the danger of mistaking perfection for love. Kevin Flynn's failure isn't technical; it's paternal. He built a world in his image and abandoned it. CLU inherited his father's obsession with order, and Sam inherited his resentment. The conflict isn't between man and machine—it's between generations.Kosinski would revisit that theme in Oblivion and Top Gun: Maverick: the architect of the system confronting the cost of control. TRON: Legacy is the prototype—a meditation on beauty, regret, and the limits of design.Fifteen years later, it feels almost prophetic. CLU's dream of a flawless system sounds uncomfortably close to the rhetoric of Silicon Valley. The movie's warning—that perfection becomes tyranny—lands harder in an age of algorithms, A.I., and curated identities. Its message is simple: imperfection is the only thing that makes us human.So tonight, as we gear up for TRON: Ares, we're putting Legacy on trial—not as a sequel that glitched, but as a digital myth that might've been too early for its own time. It's Star Wars rewritten by a coder, The Matrix without the leather, and Ghost in the Shell with a heartbeat.Load the disc. Power up the light cycles. Let's head back to the Grid.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59 

Police themed stuff is a popular genre! It's full of tropes and stylised aspects and generally very different from the reality, both from the actual police perspective and the perspective of those that deal with them, and I think I prefer it that way because the reality is usually pretty sad and ugly for all involved. So today we're talking about police theme things, set in the present, past, and future! One of the tropes we covered is the savant cop. It's a character that's based on Sherlock homes, they're not always officially police, in fact like him they're often private detectives or “consultants” is the popular thing these days. Sherlock Holmes was basically just a super genius but these days it's fashionable to make the expertise pathological, even stuff that's based directly ON Sherlock. They often NEED to be neurodivergent, from Monk, to High Potential, to Patience, The Finder, Bones etc, Though not always, like The Mentalist and White Collar. Then there's Law and order (and it's spin-offs). This highly venerable show made its mark by doing what most cop shows never do: showing what happens AFTER an investigation. You actually always got too see the trial. Other shows sometimes did that but for Law and Order it was solidly part of the format and that was pretty cool. It's not realistic because everything happens way too fast and orderly but it was good to see anyway. My fave manga/Anime cop themed stuff is Dominion Tank Police and Ghost in the Shell. They cover things from the police perspective and they're amazing. They envisage how police would work in a future world, one with tanks that can tackle even the most severe aspects of crime in an exaggerated and comical way, and one that has expertise hacking and taking a more black-ops, specialised military approach to their work. Patlabor is like Tank Police in that they use heavy vehicles but in their case it's mecha instead of tanks and the approach isn't comical. There are good sci-fi approaches in Star Trek Deep Space Nine, Babylon 5, and even Galaxy Rangers. Stuff set in the past is fun too, we have the Sherif of Nottingham in Robinhood as a very bad fellow, there's The Name of The Rose and Cadfael with actual monks acting as investigative policemen during the time of the crusades, then Tombstone and a host of other cowboy shows and movies that cover all aspects of the law in the late 19th century American West. Rush was one of my faves, it was about a policeman in Australia during the gold Rush in the mid 19th century, that was a very unique view and a great theme song! Almost as good as the theme song for the original 1970s version of Van Der Valk, a British show about a Dutch police investigator in the Netherlands. I would say my faves are Miami Vice due to the style, The Mentalist due to the cleverness of the main character without resorting to supernatural or neurodivergent abilities as well as having a woman in charge of the team and the way they generally had a non-adversarial relationship with their captain, Dominion Tank Police, Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex, and The Bill- but only the early seasons of it before it turned into a ridiculous soap opera- It began as a very procedural cop show showing every aspect of policing from the most minor crimes to more serious stuff in a very realistic way without flashy fights and car chases or constant gristly murders, nothing else did that. So what are your faves? Do you like copshows? Would you prefer them to be more realistic? Do you like the fantasy/historical/Sci-Fi stuff or do you prefer them to be set in the present day? Another best-off from Gunwallace and this week it's - Grey Sky Blue Moon - I'm tempted to write a bad early 80s rap for this, but I won't torture people that way. This tune is remarkably 1980s in style: rap, dance style music, exactly like you'd get from a big budget movie from 1984 or ‘85. Think Beverly Hills Cop or Police Academy. It's perfect! It's a great match for the crazy light night hi-jinks that the girls of Grey Sky Blue Moon get up too! Originally Quackcast 462 4th January 2020 - the start of Covid!

Amy Chavez and Hector Garcia discuss his recently released book, The Spirit of Shinto, and how Shinto's worldview permeates pop culture—anime, manga, films—where good and evil often blur, echoing the idea that kegare (dirt, corruption) must be cleansed rather than destroyed. Unlike Western religions where God is above, Shinto gods exist among people, as seen in Makoto Shinkai's films or games like Ghost in the Shell and Nintendo's video games. Hector, a Tokyoite himself, urges people to seek the Shinto "awe" in their daily lives since Shinto should not be explained but lived. At the very end of the episode, Garcia talks about his just-released novel Eternity in Kyoto a techno thriller with a love story that employs the Shinto concept of crossing through a gate and entering a parallel world.

Nach den Sommerfolgen sind wir mit einer neuen Ausgabe unserer Science-Fiction-Spezialreihe zurück! Peter ist wieder zu Gast bei Eva und dieses Mal geht es um ein Thema, das uns im Film schon viel länger beschäftigt als im Alltag. Während die Künstliche Intelligenz im Alltag erst seit kurzer Zeit eine wichtige Rolle spielt, wird in der Science-Fiction schon lange über sie spekuliert. Filme wie Ghost in the Shell, Blade Runner oder Ex Machina haben unser Bild von Maschinen, Bewusstsein und Menschlichkeit geprägt. Aber was ist eigentlich Bewusstsein, und haben wir Menschen überhaupt eines? Haben wir eine Chance gegen den Aufstand der Maschinen? Und, müssen wir uns damit abfinden, bald nicht mehr die intelligentesten Wesen auf der Erde zu sein? Über all das und noch mehr diskutieren Eva und Peter in dieser Folge.

Agradece a este podcast tantas horas de entretenimiento y disfruta de episodios exclusivos como éste. ¡Apóyale en iVoox! GHOST IN THE SHELL, el manga de Masamune Shirow trascendió hasta el punto de ofrecer al mundo una película de mismo nombre que revolucionó la escena del anime en ese momento. Posteriormente llegaron secuelas, videojuegos y una excepcional serie de televisión con dos temporadas y un OVA especial que sirvió de epílogo, aunque para muchos fuera una especie de mini 3ª temporada. Hoy, en LA ÓRBITA DE ENDOR vamos a encargarnos de profundizar en toda esa coyuntura, analizando el universo y la filosofía de Ghost in the Shell, amén de sumergirnos en la psique de sus protagonistas, de ciertas y complejas tramas que se fueron hilvanando a lo largo de la extensa historia de la conocida como Sección 9, y de un trasfondo que iba más allá de un simple cómic o de un simple film animado. Y además, este programa es muy especial para los responsables de LODE por muchas razones que explicaremos al final.

Hello dear friends and trashers, our Once More with Feeling marathon chugs along at bullet train speeds this week. We revisit an anime classic in the form of the Live Action remake of Ghost in the Shell. Shrouded in questionable casting and controversy, the remake bombed upon release. But, does it warrant another look? Join us as we bring Ghost in the Shell to the analysis table. 

Hikaru Tanaka, the son of renowned anime voice actor Atsuko Tanaka, has updated his official social media account with a message in memory of his mother, stating that he is "truly grateful to all the people who still express their feelings for her."Atsuko Tanaka, known for voicing iconic anime characters such as Flamme in Frieren: Beyond Journey's End, Lisa Lisa from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Hanami from Jujutsu Kaisen and of course, the original Motoko Kusanagi from Ghost in the Shell, passed away at age 61 after suffering a year-long battle with an undisclosed illness. Her son, Hikaru Tanaka, also a voice actor, paid tribute to Tanaka on the date of the first anniversary of her death.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://creators.spotify.com/pod/show/roose366/subscribe⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow For More Content &Streams!Science Podcast: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/5nFXe9dPeWrMpyObyAlrnF?si=7358d1cf32cb45b7⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube Gaming: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@RooseJp/videos⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tiktok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@podcastonanime

Welcome to another episode of Data Driven, where we delve deep into the crossroads of data, technology, and the ever-shifting world of geopolitics. In this packed episode, hosts Frank La Vigne and Bailey are joined by Christopher Nuland, AI technical marketing manager at Red Hat, for a candid, no-holds-barred discussion on the newly released America's AI Action Plan.Together, they tackle everything from the resurgence of Cold War tensions in the AI arena to the complexities of “AI sovereignty” and what it really means for the US, China, and the rest of the world. Expect spirited debates about EU's place in the global AI race, the real-world implications of chip supply chain disruptions, and the heated rhetoric around workforce security in an era when AI is starting to replace traditional jobs.The conversation weaves through existential questions—can AI ever truly reason, or are we just witnessing the rise of superpowered “spreadsheet goblins?”—and gets hands-on with the very real risks (and opportunities) of rolling out LLMs in everyday workplaces. Plus, the team touches on power-hungry data centers, potential impacts on the job market, and even finds time to swap sci-fi references from The Expanse to Ghost in the Shell to help paint a picture of what our AI-dominated future might look like.Buckle up for a dense, dynamic, and dangerously nerdy journey into the world of AI policy, technology, and what it means for all of us. Let's get into it!Timestamps00:00 AI Geopolitics & America's Action Plan08:14 EU's Role in Tech Hierarchy14:10 "US Focus: Securing AI Workforce"20:40 Supply Chain Security in Software24:24 Politicians' Technical Proficiency Limits27:19 AI Sovereignty and Cultural Values33:52 CHIPS Act: Innovation and Expansion Hopes38:11 "AI Vulnerability: Patch Attacks"47:58 Maryland Power Line Controversy50:09 "AI Impact on Jobs & UBI"55:47 Techno Feudalism Perspective01:04:41 "AI Sovereignty: A Geopolitical Chess Match"

In the second half of our deep dive into Mamoru Oshii's GHOST IN THE SHELL, we pick up with the film's release and the surprising reception that followed. Despite high expectations, GHOST IN THE SHELL underperformed at the box office, but quickly found a second life on home video, where it became a breakout hit in the West and helped bring anime into the cultural mainstream. We share our own thoughts on the film, from its unforgettable visuals to its haunting score, and dig into the philosophical questions it raises about technology, consciousness, and identity. Finally, we explore the movie's enduring legacy—not just in its own ever-expanding franchise, but in the countless films and creators it inspired. Join us as we wrap up our exploration of a landmark work that forever changed how the world saw animation—and what animation could say. Want to support the show?

For the next film in our Virtual Insanity series, we're headed to the land of the rising sun to uncover the story behind one of the most iconic animes ever made: Mamoru Oshii's GHOST IN THE SHELL. In this episode, we trace the origins of the cyberpunk classic, starting with Masamune Shirow's original manga and following the career of visionary director Mamoru Oshii up through his groundbreaking work on GHOST IN THE SHELL. We dig into the film's production process—from its innovative animation techniques to the challenges of bringing such a complex story to the screen—and look at how it was marketed ahead of release. Along the way, we explore how anime began to make waves beyond Japan's borders, and how landmark films like AKIRA helped pave the way for a global audience hungry for ambitious, adult animation.

Normally when a band starts to click with the mainstream its after they've been at it for a long time. That's not to say Velvet Chains haven't been grinding, but bassist and founder Nils Goldschmidt didn't even start the band until he was in his early 30s, and they started as cover band playing little bars in the Vegas area. Then inspiration struck and the Velvet Chains we now know was born. "Ghost in the Shell" by Velvet Chains is out now.

In celebration of Pride month, we take a somewhat unusual look at Oshii Mamoru's Ghost in the Shell as an allegory of trans becoming. We look at how trans individuals have read the film against their own experiences and how this highlights a queerness in Kusanagi's character that Oshii likely never intended yet is still palpably there.

(Spoiler Section Length - 9min 3sec)Like Akira, Ghost in the Shell is one of those anime movies that is often brought up to represent the value and 'adult' appeal that anime has, as compared to western animated movies which are often following in Disney's footsteps. Like Akira, it's also very influential, both in its home country and overseas. But is it worthy of this reputation? Does a 1995 film focused on the idea of near-future technology still hold up so many decades later? Listen to find out!

Wir springen in dieser Folge nach Hongkong, und zwar schon ins 17. Jahrhundert, bewegen uns aber dann weiter bis ins späte 20. Jahrhundert. Ziel unseres Ausflugs ist ein Ort, der so eigentlich gar nicht existieren hätte dürfen: Die Kowloon Walled City. Wir sprechen darüber, wie dieser Ort wortwörtlich historisch gewachsen ist, wie es in dieser Stadt, die nicht größer als ein Häuserblock war, aussah und weshalb sie schließlich einem öffentlichen Park weichen musste. //Erwähnte Folgen - GAG34: Tee, Silber und Rauschmittel – https://gadg.fm/34 - GAG423: Der Sohn Gottes Hong Xiuquan und sein Aufstand gegen das imperiale China – https://gadg.fm/34 //Literatur - David Akers-Jones.

Send us a textWilliam Gibson described Cyberpunk as a fusion of high-tech and low-life, exploring the intersection of technology, cybernetics, and computer networks on human society in a near-future, often dystopian setting.If you don't know who William Gibson is then shame on you.Like most people out there, my first exposure to Cyberpunk was Blade Runner. The 1982 movie by Ridley Scott blew me away. After that I watched movies like Freejack and Johnny Mnemonic, Akira, and Ghost in the Shell. it wasn't until the late 90's that I started diving into the literary world of Cyberpunk with Nuromancer and Snowcrash.I loved the setting, the style, the tech, and the action, but I never got into the roleplaying games. I heard about Cyberpunk, and Cyberpunk 2020. But for some strange reason I never picked them up.Then Mike asked me if I was interested in playing Cyberpunk Red.I jumped at the chance.Mike ran our group though almost a year of Cyberpunk using the Cyberpunk Red rules and we have recently started up again focusing more on the Edgerunner 2077 expansion for Cyberpunk Red.After that much game time, we got opinions.In this episode Mike, Christina and I are going to give you an honest, unbiased review of Cyberpunk Red.But before we do that, Christina, break down the legalese for us.[Kick to Christina so she can go on about how we haven't been paid or compensated in any way for our opinion and we bought the shit with money out of our own pocket.]Now Mike, Start us off on our review of Cyberpunk Red.

Masamune Shirow y Ghost in the shell revolucionaron el cyberpunk y la ciencia-ficción. Su rompedora estética y visión marcó época y muchos recordamos todas sus series. Desde los tímidos inicios con Black Magic a la consistente Appleseed, pasando por la cómica Dominion: Tank police o las aventuras de Motoko Kusanagi, Shirow dejó un legado imponente, denso y en ocasiones ilegible. Junto a David Jiménez "Batto" de Ramen para dos y Kenny Ruiz, analizamos toda la trayectoria del genial mangaka .Además tenemos el enorme placer de entrevistar a Pepe Larraz, el gran dibujante Marvel de la actualidad que nos hable de su carrera y sus actuales andanzas dibujando a Peter Perker. Finalmente, tenemos tiempo de recomendar un montón de cómics: Tower dungeon, Transformers, Dibujo al natural, Las locuritas de Úrsula y Días sin escuela.

Superficial Sci-Fi: Rupert Sanders' Ghost in the Shell On this week's episode of WatchThis W/RickRamos, Ibrahim & I dive into Rupert Sanders' 2017 live-action re-imagining of Mamoru Oshii's 1995 Anime-Classic, Ghost in the Shell.  There are so many things that can go wrong with an adaptation and Sanders manages to check many of those boxes. From casting Scarlett Johansson  in the lead role through a amateurish handling of theme and purpose - the film is - certainly - beautiful to look at, however it misses out on so much that made the oringal anime both special and important. In an attempt to be all things to all audiences, the film fails to capture the existential ideas and philosophical statements of the original material (manga and anime film). We may be wrong, but you'd have to mount an argument against what we have to say.

Cyborg Awakening: Mamoru Oshii's Ghost in the Shell From time to time this podcast allows Mr. Chavez & Myself the opportunity to explore new genre's. With the encouragement and recommendations of WatchThis listeners, we have had the opportunity to engage in new experiences a number of times. Some of these new viewings have been from The World of Japanese Anime (Thank You, Mr. Burroughs!). This week we dive into one of the very best, Mamoru Oshii's 1995 dystopian masterpiece Ghost in the Shell. It is rare that a film is able to deliver on so many different levels (entertaining/exciting - insightful/thought-provoking), but this is precisely what Oshii's film does. What could have been a simple and obvious look into a bleak and misery-infused Science-Fiction future is, rather, an insightful and compelling examination of Artificial Intelligence, The Soul . . . its relation to the species and culture, and intellectual and emotional awareness. This is an incredible film that mixes Fritz Lang, Blade Runner, martial-arts & gun-play, and the police procedural to examine grand existential questions. Take a listen as we continue diving deeper and deeper into the world of AI and its promises, hopes, and threats for the future. As always, we can be reached at gondoramos@yahoo.com - Many Thanks.  For those of you who would like to donate to this undying labor of love, you can do so with a contribution at https://www.buymeacoffee.com/watchrickramos - Anything and Everything is appreciated, You Cheap Bastards.

Western video games are too "politically correct" and pretty terrible, according to the director of the Ghost in the Shell anime, Mamoru Oshii. More and more Japanese OG staff are coming and and saying the quiet part out loud.

(/tpodcasttwdie.bsky.social) SHOWNOTES: We hope all of our ganja-enjoying listeners had a fantastic 4/20; we sure did! This stoner holiday, we blazed while watching the anti-cannabis propaganda exploitation film Reefer Madness! Originally released as a Christian picture titled Tell Your Children in 1936, then vulgarly recut as an exploitation film from 1938 through the 50s, this hilariously melodramatic flick was recontextualized as an unintentional satire in the 70s, and is ironically considered by many weed smokers one of the original stoner movies today. For our (belated) 4/20 Special, Beau and Ash are joined by returning guests Kevin and Erin from The Podcast That Wouldn't Die! in our discussion of one of the worst films ever made and the batshit insanity it unabashedly presents as factual in its campaign against marijuana. If you enjoy this special episode, stay tuned for our (also belated) analysis of Ghost in the Shell, as well as our next numbered episode on Doctor Who: "The Day of the Doctor", and... smoke it if you got it!
