March 29th will be released on our screens Ghost in the Shell , a science fiction film set in a cyberpunk Japan. And science-fiction says “push technology” that will allow characters to push the limits possible and known by humans. One of them concerns neither more nor less than the human brain and its link with the robotics since it is possible to pirate it in Ghost in the Shell through the Mind Hacking . A practice that will be at the center of the plot between Major (Scarlett Johansson) and The Marionette, mysterious cyber-terrorist. In Ghost in the Shell, who unveiled new animated posters of his characters ,
In Ghost in the Shell , the “Ghost” refers directly to the human soul and “Shell” to the empty shell that can accommodate the latter. Thus, it is possible through the Mind Hacking to hack a Ghost and implant him memories, new personalities, to make his puppet what. In other words, the threat of such an attack is rather serious in an ultra-connected cyberpunk world unfolding in … 2029. Not far from us what !

Ghost in the Shell: Plot, Evil … 3 things to know about the movie

sivertime — Wed, 15 Mar 2017 18:42:51 +0000

Ghost in the Shell will be released very soon on our screens. So between his intrigue and his villain and the themes he addresses, here are 3 things you need to know about the movie!
Go, more than two weeks before the release of Ghost in the Shell ! Since the time we talk about it, it is true that it will make us wait. If it first of all made him speak because of the polemic surrounding the choice of Scarlett Johansson to play the main character, the film has since been able to detach itself from all this. Today, if we talk about him, it is to evoke his extraordinary cyberpunk and futuristic atmosphere – but not too much – his cyborgs that put vaguely uncomfortable and his fascinating heroine, to which Scarlett Johansson, d ‘After what has been seen, succeeded in giving a true depth. It must be said that Motoko Kusanagi, alias the Major, is a complex character , As the actress was able to tell us in the featurette of Ghost in the Shell where she presents her role and reminds us of her very human dimension. In any case, the different trailers of the film put us water in the mouth and we are impatient to see what the end result may well give. And since we do not want you to embark on the adventure without having a minimum of cards in hand, melty unveils the three critical points that you must absolutely know about Ghost in the Shell before going to see it in the movies!
An intrigue in a futuristic world
A fascinating heroine is fantastic and you can not dream better. But it also needs a solid intrigue that goes with it! And luckily, Ghost in the Shell should not disappoint us at that level. On the surface, the film plunges us into a futuristic world, not so far from ours, where androids, cyborgs and artificial intelligences are common currencies. It follows the adventures – or rather the grim investigations – of Section 9, an anti-terrorist unit headed by the ruthless Daisuke Aramaki (Takeshi Kitano) and of which the Major is a part. And the Section this time has the task of arresting a certain Kuze, who decided to sow the bazaar in androids . That’s it, it’s for the central pitch. But Ghost in the Shell also tells the story of Motoko Kusanagi, who finds himself in a cybernetic body that is not his own and with memories that may not even belong to him. Then by chasing Kuze and trying to end her activities, it is also herself that Motoko tries to find . Knowing who we are, this is a question we all ask, right?
An ambiguous villain
Speaking of the wicked, precisely, who is he really? The main enemy of Section 9 is not here the Puppeteer or the Ginger, as one might have thought. No, it’s Kuze , which is played by Michael Pitt, which fans of Broadwalk Empire will easily recognize since he lent his traits to Jimmy Darmody in the first two seasons of the series. And he is not a cyber criminal like the others, far from it! In fact, as you may have seen in the latest Ghost in the Shell trailer , Kuze is also a cyborg who likes hacking in android programs to turn them against humans and sow chaos. But most of all, this villain seems to know a lot about the Major and his past. Does not he tell her that she is being used and that, far from having been saved by her transformation, she has actually become a prisoner of those who created her? So much to say that, for Motoko, the fight against Kuze is going to be very, very personal …
Very philosophical themes
As you can see, Ghost in the Shell talks about fairly philosophical themes, such as memory and identity. Through the character of Motoko, these are questions like ” What does it mean to be human? ” Or ” What makes me am me? ” That poses the film. But that’s not all ! For it also obviously covers a whole section concerning the evolution of technology. Already because it stages not only the androids but also cyborgs – beings therefore half humans half robots – who no longer distinguish the boundary between what is human in them and what is not more. And then there is of course a reflection on hacking , Which allows certain cyber-criminals to steal identity, even conscience, from people like Motoko. What show us that technology, if not controlled, can be manipulated and used against humanity at very intimate levels. And such a questioning, in an era like ours where hacking became commonplace, is finally very relevant! Will you see the movie?

Ghost in the Shell: Motoko vs. Black Widow, which costume does Scarlett Johansson prefer?

sivertime — Sat, 18 Feb 2017 17:58:31 +0000

In Ghost in the Shell, Scarlett Johansson wears a very tight outfit, reminiscent of Black Widow. The actress has confided in the characteristics of her costume!
Motoko Kusanagi, as an orroid to fight terrorists, has (inevitably) the right to state-of-the-art equipment! And melty’s editorial does not just talk about his weapons and his gadgets, which allow him to deal with most situations. No, like some other super heroines, the Major wears a rather special outfit, as we saw in the recent trailer of Ghost in the Shell . Except that in fact – and that fans of the original works know it – Motoko spends a lot in time in the manga and in the animated films to be … half or even completely naked! Which is problematic when for a live adaptation. Fortunately for Scarlett Johansson, The feature film team managed to create a costume that completely covered it but still remained faithful to the atmosphere and design of the elements of the original works . The actress has also entrusted himself on this very tight-fitting outfit, which she compares with another costume of the same kind that she wears on another well-known franchise!
Scarlett Johansson, who recently responded to the controversy surrounding her role in Ghost in the Shell , gave some details about the clothes she donned for the film, saying: ” When I saw the animated film, I said to myself, ‘I’m obviously not naked. We all agree that I’m not naked, right?’ ” And we can understand indeed that this little detail gave the actress a few cool sweats! Finally, it is a fitting combination, able to reflect its environment, that Scarlett Johansson carries in the film . And between the latter and that of Black Widow, that she puts on the productions Marvel , the actress already knows which she prefers! ” This combination is easier to wear than Black Widow, and it is easier to fight with . “She admitted to the magazine and gave us some technical details to prove it.” Black Widow’s outfit is made of neoprene, and sometimes even leather – which is absolutely horrible. [Motoko’s] is made of a silicone-based material, so you can be shredded in it, but only the outfit suffers, not your body. I’ve slaughtered them all. . “At least we know therefore that Scarlett Johansson has given herself fully to play the role of Motoko! We will in any case very soon have the opportunity to detail its holding in the film on 29 mas. How Do you find Motoko’s outfit?

These kids of cartoons to whom you would give the good God without confession are merciless killers

sivertime — Wed, 11 Jan 2017 18:27:25 +0000

Despite their seeming innocent little girls at first, they can smash you as fast as they do. This is also the beauty of cartoons.

Mariko Kurama in “Elfen Lied”
With her little blouse and the knot in her hair, you take her for a little harmless. And you should not. Giving little or no interest to human life, it can degrade anyone like that. She also spent her entire life locked in a high security area , monitored by a manager who placed explosives in his body to make him jump to members when she disobeys. That does not stop him. Even if she walks around in a wheelchair, she needs to kill to live.
Krul Tepes in “Seraph of the end”
We must not rely on appearances, it is confirmed. While it appears ten, it actually counts 200,000 years. Queen of Japan in her world, Krul gets warm in no time for any fight, including with bare hands. Know that if she touches you, she’ll tear a limb, so it hits hard, fast and accurately . Hint to know when it gets under pressure: red eyes.
Hibana Daida in “Deadman Wonderland”
The click came to the school. A heavy bastard made her a joke, joking too much, and she decided to torture him. Clearly, Hibana twitched. Yet, she thinks of rendering justice, in her way certainly but seriously. If the dress does not specifically betrays his folly, it suffices to note the sword she carries 4m for him knock those short on beans . A two-in-one weapon that decomposes into several pieces and can lie down to strike a distant enemy.
Like the genius of Aladin but less friendly. She can realize all kinds of vows and does not deprive herself. You, naive, you kiffes without knowing that she will ask you better in exchange. And there you know you can not. Her too. And hop, Alluka has his excuse all found to kill you and your family . It would then pass under the control of Nanika Zoldyck, his second personality.
Sengoku Nadeko in “Monogatari Series”
The plan to avoid. Jolie, nice, discreet, you think to make the coup of the century by choping it. Basically, yes. Except that the small is under a curse when she falls in love, she goes insane . Sengoku sees his eyes go red, severe picole and uses rather warlike serpents to attack those who are on his way.
Another one with the childish style that would surprise you. Small top, skirt, boots rising … and powerful gun or tap with razor tips grafted to shear his opponents. This combined with a peerless flexibility and a certain mastery of the martial arts . Besides, Mumei is never afraid so if you’re in your sight, you’re in the shit. The only way to know is if she is wearing a ribbon around her neck. If so, the Kabane virus is contained. If she is kidnapped, she becomes a merciless warrior.
Illyasviel von Einzbern in “Fate / Stay night: unlimited blade works”
“Issue of the German aristocracy, she joined Japan to participate in the 5th Holy Grail War. So she has the temperament and not leaking the fight, obviously. A father-daughter the trauma work hard following the adoption of a big brother named Shiro, since Illyasviel afraid of being abandoned . So she wants everyone to be at his orders. and if we insist, it sends the giant second, Berserker. You understand the interest in Never underestimate people now?

Super Dragon Ball: The whole team of the universe 7 unfolds on a first visual

sivertime — Thu, 15 Dec 2016 17:41:24 +0000

While the next arc of Super Dragon Ball has been officially announced, a first explosive poster has just been unveiled to announce the team that will defend the universe 7 during the inter-universe tournament!

It’ll be crazy! While DBS is currently in a period of break for short story and instead focused on humor, we looked forward to the announcement of the next big story for Goku and the others. This is now done, the new arc Super Dragon Ball was announced, and you released the first info . If it is strongly predicted that this arc would be dedicated to the great tournament between the 12 universe organized by the Supreme King Zeno, new information come almost confirm the information. Indeed, a first post the next was unveiled, and it comes with a revealing title: “The imminent departure strongest team of the Universe 7!” With that, we really had doubts! But then what makes us more impatient, this is the post that this entire team that will defend the colors of the universe 7!
Frankly, more difficult to cool. So let’s talk about some of this team. The Warriors are 10 in number, suggesting that as many as 120 fighters participate in the tournament! If logically include 4 of the 5 members of the team in the first Beerus tournament against the world 6 (Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo and Boo), we have the pleasure of seeing Krillin, his wife C-18, Tien Shinhan and even Roshi. But then where hype up a notch, it is with the return of C-17, the brother of C-18, especially Gohan! The young man left behind his green tracksuit to resume combat gear, and we love it. When the cyborg, it is clearly a surprise to find him there, although when thought about, his power makes it a logical participant in the tournament. The wait promises to be very difficult to start the arc, but in the meantime we will discover the murder of Goku in episode 71 of Dragon Ball Super.

Super Dragon Ball: Episode 66, unity is strength, our recap !

sivertime — Mon, 14 Nov 2016 19:13:15 +0000

The episode 66 of Dragon Ball Super gathered many things that are the hallmark of the series, and we delivered an incredible fight. Here is our recap !

The problem Zamasu is that he is all alone. In episode 65 of Super Dragon Ball, Goku and the others delivered a hopeless fight face to that which has become the ultimate merging God. This week we start a little hope thanks to the Kamehameha Goku who joined the Canon Garric Trunks and Vegeta. But Zamasu is clearly above, despite its bizarre physical transformations. The presence of both Kaio Shin we had put the chip in the ear, it is now confirmed: Goku and Vegeta decide to merge through Potalas to create the mythical Vegetto! So here we are treated to a very important information that challenges everything you thought about the merger. Indeed Gowasu explains for non-gods, the merger is not final, and it lasts only an hour!
So he said the fight between Vegetto and Boo at the end of DBZ hair cell lasted an hour, and the merger was completed once Vegetto has entered the body of Boo. This is plausible, but it’s hard to believe that this was planned from the beginning! Let … We thus find Vegetto Blue, which is on a par with Zamasu. Again, we see an unequal battle thought as against Boo, but no. It is very balanced, and we do not yet know the face of a doubt that Vegetto. Finally the merger ends quickly, Goku and Vegeta who consumed too much ki. Zamasu is about to finish once and for all troublemakers, but He interposes! Trunks stops the attack with his sword ki. We well knew that he would be the fatal blow to wear the Zamasu!
Then there is more respect for the essence of Dragon Ball, which means that the enemy is often alone, and many allies to fight and defeat him. Trunks is not alone, and the energy of all the people who inhabit the planet is concentrated to form the equivalent of a Genkidama. We enjoyed reviewing the Cyborg C-8, aka Francky and Kame House has survived. With great emotion, the last blow is struck, and the episode ends. after these events no doubt that the arc Trunks will end very soon, certainly in the episode 67 of Dragon Ball Super, which will see the arrival of the Supreme King Zeno . Sniff, it’s already the end … But you can expect the new arc forward!
