Visually I imagine this will be stunning, I don't see it capturing the message of Ghost in the Shell. People say that they didn't think that scarlett was the right actress for the job, but I doubt any actress would be "right" for the job to play Motoko. That's one of the many problems with live-action films anime, cartoons, etc. are drawn irrespective of our own reality. Question. When does a movie have enough CGI that it may be more apt to call it an animation or something? Does that happen?

With the consensus of the genre not being transferrable, I guess no one ever will be right for the job. Re: your question, was the 'visually stunning' Avatar by James Cameron considered an animation? Might as well be, but guess not.
