So this is the movie based on the series based on the movie?

Bandia is threatning any subber group that bothers to do this with legal action lol

[Hero]

Eh, fuck Bandai. Fansubbers do a better job than their official subs.

And they should offer a boxset right from the beginning this time. I like to watch GitS all at once.

So this is the movie based on the series based on the movie?

The movies, SAC, 2nd GiG, and SSS all take place in the same continuity.

And they should offer a boxset right from the beginning this time. I like to watch GitS all at once.

It's a movie. What the fuck are you talking about?

Eh, fuck Bandai. Fansubbers do a better job than their official subs.

They've given SAC and 2nd GiG pretty much the best dubs ever done. I don't even see a reason to use the sub track.

The completed trailer can bee seen here.

SSS is a movie?

SSS is a movie?

Sorry, my bad. I did kind of make it sound like I was talking about a 'preview' movie. :P

[Siendra]

SSS is a movie?

Shit, I thought it was a series. D:

Yep. 2 hour 20 minute movie.

Eh, fuck Bandai. Fansubbers do a better job than their official subs.

Incidentally...

August 22, 2006 (Cypress, CA) Bandai Entertainment Inc. sent out a general notice to the fan community today stating it would be carefully monitoring the market for the creation and/or distribution of illegal fansubs or other pirated copies of all Bandai Entertainment Inc. titles, including the yet to be released title, Ghost in the Shell: Solid State Society.

Several fansub sites have publicly announced plans to create and distribute illegal fansubs of Solid State Society following its release in Japan. However, Bandai Entertainment Inc. and Manga Entertainment have secured the exclusive right to distribute this title in the US. The creation of translated versions of Solid State Society is considered an unauthorized derivative and constitutes infringement of the intellectual property rights in the work as well as unfair competition. Furthermore, uploading and downloading of the programs without an official license or explicit consent by the content owner(s) constitutes infringement of copyright, trademark and other intellectual property rights, and is an illegal act. Bandai must take steps to protect its investment in the property and will take all measures available to stop the illegal distribution of its titles, including instituting court proceedings. If it is forced to do so, Bandai is prepared to seek statutory damages and/or damages to cover its loss of sales.

“Fansubs, even those not sold for profit, are harmful to our properties and industry overall and we will be watching closely to make sure our rights regarding SSS are not infringed,” said Ken Iyadomi, President of Bandai Entertainment Inc. “We are prepared to take legal action against fansubbers and illegal download and other distribution sites if this notice is ignored,” he added.

Ghost in the Shell: Solid State Society will be released by Bandai Entertainment Inc. in 2007.
