In the 1980s, there were only 63 Black films by, for, or about Black Americans. But in the 1990s, that number quadrupled, with 220 Black films making their way to cinema screens nationwide. What sparked this “Black New Wave?” Who blazed this path for contemporaries like Ava DuVernay, Kasi Lemmons and Jordan Peele? And how did these films transform American culture as a whole?

We seek to engage with the themes and philosophies behind our favorite stories, wrestling with the big ideas within speculative fiction. We’re unabashedly nerdy and unabashedly Christian.

Today, Jay (@TheJayOfSpade on Twitter) and FutureFriend (@FutureFriendLP on Twitter) join me to talk about two sides of the same coin: the earliest and latest movie adaptations of Masamune Shirow's Ghost in the Shell! The first is often held up as one of the finest pieces of animation, and the second was largely lambasted for, among other things, not being able to live up to the original movie. But is this ire justified? Is there something still worth looking at in the Hollywood Ghost in the Shell, or is it best left forgotten like so many other attempts to bring anime to Hollywood? We discuss all this and more in a very special episode of Cocoa?Disaster! Timestamps: 0:51 - Introduction 4:26 - Background for Ghost in the Shell (1995) 14:09 - Background for Ghost in the Shell (2017) 21:13 - Summary 51:52 - General Thoughts/Opinions on the Two Movies 1:13:54 - Discussion: The Americanization 1:24:32 - Discussion: The Major's Character 1:37:52 - Discussion: The Themes 1:52:11 - Discussion: The Replicated Scenes 2:13:24 - Discussion: The Twist 2:22:29 - Fanmail and Conclusion 2:48:43 - Send-Off Intro by BeamSplashX (twitter.com/BeamSplashX)
