Laika: Coraline; truthfully, the only one of the four I've seen
Ghost in the Shell: not too familiar with the property, but the new movie looks cool to me. We know Kate Beckinsale is hot as #$@% and can play in action movies; maybe her.
What's your favorite movie from the Laika collection? I liked Caroline the most
And who would you cast for the new Ghost in the Shell movie if it weren't Scarlett
Personally feel it's a shame they choose so many white actors, I do get it might be hard to find a Japanese actress without a thick accent though. But there are millions of American born Japanese (like my wife) who don't so they just haven't tried to find one. Rinko Kikuchi
