Bliss English Club

My Dear Blissers,

As requested by many Blissers, our devoted Hosts, Angel and Ellen are going to re-open the topic, “Ghost in the Shell”, for more elaborate discussion which awaits your appreciation this Saturday afternoon!

Here is our Hostess’ important Notice to you:

As this meeting required to finish watching "Ghost in the Shell 1995  version " prior to the meeting , therefore , please message Angel or Ellen via line or email (cbad5@yahoo.com.tw) to get link of this film to watch ,so you will be able to join the discussion with us in the meeting .

Thanks for your participation in my meeting dated on Jul. 21. Through the discussions of the impact of cybernetic enhancement and the doubts from Motoko (the main character in the film), we learned “something” is more important before we embrace future technology.

Owing to your sharing and reflections, everyone has different interpretations of “something”, such as soul, consciousness, love…etc. As I mentioned, 2017 version of ghost in the shell is more commercial oriented with less discussion of self-existence, which is more like an appetizer.

This time, Ellen and I would like to invite you to enjoy the main course, Ghost in the shell 1995 version (the analysis film) and go deeper to explorer the meaning of “something”.

This Sat, Bliss movie theater will provide you a relaxing afternoon with a great animation discussion and delicious biscuits. The bonus is you can have spiritual enlightenment and discovery of life’s wisdom. Look forward to seeing you ~!!

Note: No guided question this week meeting as all question will be discussed during meeting along with as many” spontaneous answers” from Blissers as possible
