So I've been hosting movie nights for the 20somethings at work...which created a question.
Showing them things that they generally don't know. We started with Clue, universally adored, I mean, Tim Curry…but then, since we're all kind of geeky, we took a side tour into anime and cyberpunk. Our most recent weekly plays I pick the movie), in order, were Ninja Scroll, Blade Runner, Akira, and the 1995 Ghost in the Shell.
Ulterior motive here…show them a great pure anime film, a great pure cyberpunk film, and then two of the greatest anime cyberpunk films of all time. I asked them to decide between Akira and GitS, which is the better "cyberpunk film that's an anime" versus the better "anime that's a cyberpunk film" and gave them until Monday to decide.
So, six twentysomethings vs. you guys…what say you? I'll update Monday when I have all their answers…and I'm not telling you mine until then.
