This just sucks. The Japanese DVD release of Mamoru Oshii’s Innocence – the sequel to the hugely influential Ghost in the Shell and owner of the most technically impressive animation I have ever laid eyes on – has just been announced and it DOESN’T INCLUDE SUBTITLES!!!! Despair. Sadness. Weeping and gnashing of teeth. Not entirely surprising since Dreamworks undoubtedly wants to ensure that geeks such as myself buy their version, but will they be releasing a limited edition version with FIVE DVDS, collectible figures and books of artwork? I think not. On second though, considering that limited ed runs about $400 US it may not be a bad thing that they didn’t subtitle it …
