MAMORU OSHII

Seen none as far as I know. Not a big fan of the anime visual style.

1. Ghost in the Shell - C+

Might get around to GITS 2 but since I didn't like the 1st one very much, it isn't high on my list.

My favorites in order:

Innocence (Ghost in the Shell 2) - the greatest anime I've ever seen. Period.

Angel's Egg - a fantastic little dream fable, ostensibly about the loss of religious faith (could represent the loss of belief in any such legitimating narrative or social system). As many of you know, it's available only on a (OOP?) Japanese DVD with NO ENGLISH SUBS and for a fairly high price (I've never seen it below $50). Considering that no one else playing our game of rank-em has apparently seen this seminal anime, allow me to let you in on a little secret: I purchased a "custom DVD" of this title on eBay for $4 plus shipping, and it turned out to be one of those rare, absolutely worth-it "custom" jobs. Packaged in a nicely printed double-sided cover in a clear amaray case, the disc boasts a very solid anamorphic transfer (probably a port of the Japanese) and equally good subtitles. Last I looked, it was still available...

Ghost in the Shell - saw it for the first time with horrible English dub, and barely watched the whole thing. Returned to it year's later with the original soundtrack and it played like a different movie. My introduction to the notion that cartoons aren't just for kiddies.

Avalon - though I rank it fourth of the four Oshii's I've seen, I like it nearly as much as his animated features.

Thanks for the tip, Rich
