Twenty years after Ghost In The Shell changed the face of animation, The New Movie seeks to explain the origins of the iconic Section 9 mercenaries. Can literal cyber-babe Major Kusanagi turn hardass Batou, family man Togusa, sniper Saito, jack-of-all-trades Pazu, explosives expert Borma, and wisecracking tank Logicoma into a well-oiled killing machine?  And can anyone untangle a conspiracy that connects military uprising, political assassination, and discontinued prosthetic limbs to a body-hopping hacker? Arise and become a Platinum Donor to find out now!
