The beginning works better like this, it was a good idea to change it.
There’s a lot less dialogue in the edit, and the film improves because of it. It’s almost an introspective experience now, between the action scenes. Also, it does look closer to the anime version, which is a masterpiece in itself.
Motoko's mother is definitely not needed, I agree with that change. And good riddance to the “I give my consent" phrase said so many times in the original, just for the silly realization that it was not needed at all…
And, wow, what a great improvement in the Major and Oulet “injection” scene, this is the way it should have been done in the first time.
Everything else, in terms of AV quality and AV editing, seemed flawless to me.
This edit improves and replaces the original, for sure!
Thanks for this.
