55 - Ghost in the Shell (1995)

In this episode of the streaming heap, we spend significantly more time talking about the 1995 Ghost in the Shell than it would take us to just watch the movie. Come for the titular Major, stay for the philosophical meaning of a giant spider tank shooting up the great Tree of Fish. We also speed through a few things we've been watching, including Asteroid City and Castlevania: Nocturne. 0:00:00 State of the Podcast, The WGA Strike, etc. THIS WEEK'S HEAP 0:07:13 Preamble nonsense 0:14:05 GitS WHAT WE'RE DOING 1:52:10 Reptile 1:54:30 Red Woods 1:56:20 Lin's "Flight" 2:02:58 Asteroid City 2:06:43 Castlevania: Nocturne 2:12:49 Next time on The Streaming Heap...
