"Oshii based the setting for Ghost in the Shell on Hong Kong. . . . The film's mecha designer Takeuchi Atsushi noted that while the film does not have a chosen setting, it is obviously based on Hong Kong because the city represented the theme of the film, the old and the new which exist in a strange relationship in an age of an information deluge. Before shooting the film, the artists drew sketches that emphasized Hong Kong's chaotic, confusing and overwhelming aspects."
Anybody?
I Literally live over there
I'd respond with mine but jannies banned my main posting source. Fucking janny niggers
Primarily, I like settings like in OP.. from time to time I just love fields of grass and dream-like settings.
I lived in Taipei for years, big asian cities are a special kind of comfy.
What's it like? I've seen a few films set in Hong Kong ("Infernal Affairs" is probably my favourite), but would appreciate any recommendations.
It's shit. I don't recommend anything.
Damn. I missed an opportunity to spend a year abroad there while at university. I guess it wasn't much of a loss.
